Top 5 things I’m doing in the first 30 days as CEO:
(1) Expand the institutional BD machine. Bitcoin bonds are seeing increased demand. We want to shorten the time from first interest to going live. Speed matters.
(2) Simplified leadership structure. Empower our rockstars and clarify what decisions I make. I’ll hear all input and then make quick decisions. We’ll move like a startup on fire.
(3) Publish a 2-year roadmap, beyond bitcoin capital markets. How institutional-grade BTC privacy and post-quantum fit into our roadmap. We’re the frontier of bitcoin.
(4) Public comms & investor meetings. I’m meeting large holders 1-1 and updating them on the latest thesis and traction. First public holders update call within 30 days.
(5) Clarify value accrual. We’ll assign all IP to the endowment, which has no shareholders, making it crystal clear that all value accrues to STX. Publish value accrual mechanics: why bitcoin bonds fuel growth.
I’ve been in this industry for 13 years, and I’m coming back at the helm as CEO. Building on the frontier of Bitcoin is my dream job.
We’ll be building in public. Anyone can join us. The ticker is $STX.

Stripe can shut down your business in one email and then refuse to tell you what you actually did wrong.
That’s exactly what happened to us.
MacWall had:
• thousands successful payments
• ONE $3.99 chargeback
• real software + real customers
Then @Stripe suddenly closed our account for vague “business model risk.”
Since then:
• 5 days waiting
• 10+ emails
• multiple support chats
• full compliance + policy cleanup
• documents offered
• formal complaint submitted
And still no specific violation. No actionable explanation. No real answer.
Meanwhile payouts are frozen and legitimate customers are being refunded i am not asking Stripe to expose some secret fraud algorithm.
Just tell us what MacWall actually did wrong.
If we violated a policy, name the policy.
If something needs fixing, tell us what to fix.
If the risk system made a mistake, have a human review it.
A payments company this important should not be able to destroy a small business relationship with a vague sentence and then disappear.
@stripesupport@Stripe we need an actual answer.
Indie founders deserve better than this.
- Bitcoin Staking Bond @xverse is 99% filled.
- Liquid BTC staking @StackingDao is 98% allocated.
- Liquid BTC vault @ZestProtocol at 100% capacity.
Bitcoin capital markets on STX: productive & efficient BTC capital.
Last chance to get into Stacks' bond 2.
We're proud to share today that Xverse has closed a strategic funding round led by the legendary @DraperVC.
Both @trustmachinesco and @DraperDragon also joined in the round.
@unusual_whales My DOGE and Tariff refund have already been turned into millions of BTC.
Now I get to sell my vote for an additional $5k?!?!?
i'm so glad donny always follows thru with his promises.
"New capacity is added roughly every four weeks, measured in Bitcoin blocks. In this early phase, we're onboarding new institutional partners every round, and the last one was fully taken up."
STX to unlock capacity to stake Bitcoin for institutions.

I’ve made over $250,000 in just 3 months using my Manipulation Model.
Now I turned it into a TradingView indicator that tells you exactly when to buy and sell—no guesswork.
I’ve been testing it for months, and it’s been printing. 📈

BIG news: @muneeb Ali, founder of Stacks, is taking over as CEO of Stacks Labs on October 15.
Bitcoin Staking is live, so Stacks Labs now enters its growth phase with the founder at the helm.
Some news: I’m coming in as the new CEO of Stacks Labs.
- I co-founded Stacks in 2017; we’ve been live for 5+ years and have gone through various chapters of decentralization.
- I’m more bullish on $STX than ever before. After the successful launch of Bitcoin staking, it’s time to double down on the growth of Bitcoin capital markets.
- After ecosystem restructuring last year, Stacks Labs has emerged as the operational hub. Taking on a day-to-day operational role there lets me put rocket fuel on the institutional BD work I was already doing.
- Stacks is pushing the frontier of Bitcoin. The tech is stellar. More BTC capital flows and widespread marketing of Stacks are what’s needed now. That’ll be my focus.
- @alexlmiller has done a tremendous job over the last year as interim CEO, put us on solid operational foundations, and pushed the core staking product live. Huge kudos to Alex for all his contributions!
- Satoshi upgrades 1 delivered self-custodial staking. We’re working on other frontier Bitcoin challenges like 100x capacity, institutional-grade privacy, and post-quantum. I look forward to working with our fearless CTO, @AdrianoDiLuzio, and the rockstar team on this exciting roadmap.
Start of a new chapter for Stacks and me. It’s time to light up some fires and push the frontier of Bitcoin. Forward!
