Proof of Talk was a whole vibe.
The reception for @tryMinted was amazing. Grateful.
I @CantonNetwork pilled more people than I could count.
Institutions and family offices were eager to learn, and once they understood, they became bullish immediately.
$cc to mars.
Imo most interesting and convincing panel at @proofoftalk so far.
When I learned about @CantonNetwork I felt like I already was pretty late to the party.
But this talk makes me think building on Canton is still a scarce trade.
The room is literally 2/3rds empty π
Thx to @djchaudhry_@DanSimerman@sgheb@bpmilne and Luis Cuello for the talk

For a decade, Web3 and TradFi argued.
In 2026, they're sitting at the same table.
In 10 days, Jenny Johnson (CEO @FTDA_US, $1.5T AUM) and @adam3us (Co-Founder, @Blockstream , inventor of Hashcash) open Proof of Talk 2026 on the same stage.
That fireside is the thesis of the entire event.

PhD in Aeronautics from Imperial College London, with computational physics research for Airbus, Safran Aircraft Engines, and Swiss Space Systems.
Dr. Sacha Ghebali @sgheb, Chief Strategy Officer at @TheTieIO, takes the Proof of Talk stage this June.
He started in crypto the way he started in aerospace: through research. His first project was studying the economics of cryptocurrency mining with Fidelity and MIT Sloan's Digital Currency Initiative.
At @KaikoData he led US operations and data analytics, building the market data infrastructure that institutional desks use to price and risk-manage digital asset portfolios.
Today at The Tie he drives strategy for the platform that aggregates on-chain analytics, news sentiment, and market data into a single layer for institutional decision-makers.
A Master of Finance from MIT, two engineering degrees from Arts et Metiers ParisTech, and a doctorate from Imperial College London. Three disciplines, one throughline: building analytical systems for environments where the data is complex and the stakes are high.
His focus at the Louvre: collateral privacy and what institutions actually need before they commit to crypto infrastructure at scale.
June 2-3. Louvre Palace.
Secure your pass.

π¨ Thereβs a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk.
The malicious payload works by silently swapping crypto addresses on the fly to steal funds.
If you use a hardware wallet, pay attention to every transaction before signing and you're safe.
If you donβt use a hardware wallet, refrain from making any on-chain transactions for now.
Itβs still unclear whether the attacker is also stealing seeds from software wallets directly at this stage.
Excellent report here: https://t.co/5CtiZJHYsN
As crypto matures, how do leading quant funds stay competitive with tighter spreads and evolving data challenges? Sam Gear compared innovation in the maturing market to building better mouse traps.
