The crypto industry has spent over a decade building the future using language that actively chokes its own adoption. Terms like “blockchain,” “Web3,” “DeFi,” and “onchain” became useful shorthand inside a tech native bubble, but they have utterly failed to resonate with the broader financial ecosystem. Advisers, enterprises, regulators, and mainstream investors don’t make capital allocations based on infrastructure terminology; they make them based on trust, familiarity, and cultural legitimacy.

We don’t need another L2 folks. We need this fixed.

> CB blocks and says transfer limit is $5k day

> CB makes him do a googlemeet (a week later) where he shares what he’s doing and says they’ll review

> one day later, CB decides to lock his account for a month so he can’t move $$ until August (missing out on Robinhood bonus deal)

@Rosenbergradio The more serious question: Does he bring out Em tomorrow?

[Tyrone V. Ross Jr. @TR401]

This is even more of a wet nightmare with crypto custodians.

[Jud Mackrill 🏴‍☠️ @JudMackrill]

Every custodian delivers data differently. Position files, pricing feeds, transaction exports. None of it is standardized.

Before you can run analytics, you're running reconciliation. That's the invisible job nobody budgets for.

@NLS_TF Aaaah ok 😳

Haven’t been this excited about crypto since 2023.

For the first in my career I see a genuine path to onboard hundreds of millions of users onto blockchains, while much of the market is too distracted or checked out to appreciate it.

Think we’re firmly in the territory where you want to be looking past any month-to-month volatility and focus on the bigger picture unfolding over coming quarters and years.

Time to lock in.

@ArmanHezarkhani Got to lol

@AdviserCounsel What?!

[Tyrone V. Ross Jr. @TR401]

“The market opportunity for a wallet purpose-built for institutional and TradFi capital isn't a share-shift argument. It is a category-creation argument. Blockchain today is a pond and TradFi is the ocean. The prize is building the channel through which the ocean flows in.”

Wallets will replace accounts.

They’ll be more of this, and the advisers that don’t sit on their hands avoiding AI will dominate the next decade.

In this guest post, Jake Northrup, founder of Experience Your Wealth, shares how his 3-person advisory firm built their own custom AI assistant, not as a means to replace team members but a way to teach, train, and support their advisors and ensure advice is delivered more deeply and consistently to clients… while reducing how often the team comes to Jake as the founder for direct input. #AI #customAI #advicers

The Optimal Time to Stop Paying for Your Kids' Activities https://t.co/4OKVqQxNrH

Travel soccer is a $40,000 lottery ticket with a $1,600 expected payout.

Invested instead, that money grows to ~$290,000 by the time your kid is 40.

Yet millions of parents keep paying. Reconsider. Here's the 2-variable framework I use to decide when to keep paying for kids' activities and when to quit.

[Tyrone V. Ross Jr. @TR401]

Crypto was always coming back to the brokerage. Because of the plumbing.

As you know they spent a century swallowing everything around the trade: custody, clearing, settlement, prime brokerage, distribution to the end investor. All things the crypto ecosystem continues to be subpar at.

@RyanWatkins_ 💯

[Tyrone V. Ross Jr. @TR401]

@sytaylor Glad I’m not the only one who was thinking that.
