$USDT went from zero presence on @HyperliquidX to 7.8% of all HIP-3 volume in under three months.
On January 20, Dreamcash deployed CASH, the first USDT0-collateralized HIP-3 perpetual markets on Hyperliquid.
In February, @tether made a strategic investment in Supreme Liquid Labs (Dreamcash’s parent company) and backed a $200K/week incentive program for CASH markets.
Where things stand now according to Flowscan:
⁕ $USDC: $136.83B in volume (86.6%)
⁕ $USDT: $13.03B (7.8%)
⁕ $USDH: $6.15B (3.7%)
⁕ $USDe: $3.23B (1.9%)
CASH is the only HIP-3 DEX using USDT as collateral. That entire 7.8% slice ( $13B+ in volume) runs through CASH markets.
We’re proud to be contributing to that growth together with @Tether_to and @USDT0_to.
And we’re just getting started.
This life is fucking amazing. I'm so grateful to be alive, with all of you on this miracle of a planet.
Oh and I'm sorry if I fuck things up sometimes. I'm a flawed human. But I promise to do whatever I can to try to add some more understanding and love to this world.
After the world leader convos I get attacked intensely by all sides, and many disparate online communities. It has led to some really low points for me mentally. But I don't matter. I'm listening. I'll do better. And I'll try to find the strength to do more of them, always with rigor and backbone, seeking to truly understand. And despite accusations, I do extremely high amounts of research, sometimes 100+ hours for a conversation. Ask many of my previous guests. But when I come to the table, I put all that aside, and make it all about the other person. I don't ever try to sound smart. I know the vastness of my ignorance. But I'm trying. Sometimes I do fuck up and sound like a douche, or do something incredibly cringe. And I hate myself right after. But I'd rather fail and embarrass myself a million times, than not do what my heart says is right.
And besides world leaders, historians, CEOs, engineers, etc, this year I want to travel the world and talk to a lot more everyday people on and off the mic. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time.
Anyway this is written while on I'm on a 10 mile run, probably procrastinating, since to type I have to walk and not run 🤣
But I did just get stopped by a super smart and kind girl who works at a humanoid robotics company here. And she asked if she can give me a hug to thank me for being me. Sometimes the universe sends you a message that even a dumb dude like me can almost hear. I really needed that today. Thank you for the hug and the kindness 🙏 I'm just hoping she was real and I didn't just imagine that 🤣 Then again if I went full crazy might as well enjoy it!
Back to the run. I love you all! ❤️
Starting today, users can join the initial waitlist for the Personal Computer program.
We will provide support and resources for the initial cohort.

Macrohard or Digital Optimus is a joint xAI-Tesla project, coming as part of Tesla’s investment agreement with xAI.
Grok is the master conductor/navigator with deep understanding of the world to direct digital Optimus, which is processing and actioning the past 5 secs of real-time computer screen video and keyboard/mouse actions. Grok is like a much more advanced and sophisticated version of turn-by-turn navigation software.
You can think of it as Digital Optimus AI being System 1 (instinctive part of the mind) and Grok being System 2. (thinking part of the mind).
This will run very competitively on the super low cost Tesla AI4 ($650) paired with relatively frugal use of the much more expensive xAI Nvidia hardware. And it will be the only real-time smart AI system. This is a big deal.
In principle, it is capable of emulating the function of entire companies. That is why the program is called MACROHARD, a funny reference to Microsoft.
No other company can yet do this.
The flow:
1/ Create a PaymentIntent
2/ Stripe generates a unique deposit address per transaction
3/ Return the address to an agent and instruct it to send funds or a payment token
4/ Track transaction status via API, webhook, or Dashboard
5/ Funds settle in your default balance

Today, I’m incredibly excited to make my first proposal to Uniswap governance on behalf of @Uniswap alongside @devinawalsh and @nkennethk
This proposal turns on protocol fees and aligns incentives across the Uniswap ecosystem
Uniswap has been my passion and singular focus for the past 8 years. What started as a small side project is now global financial infrastructure powering thousands of applications with ~$1.8 trillion in annual trading
UNI launched in 2020, but for the past 5 years Labs has been unable to meaningfully participate in Uniswap governance, and has been greatly restricted in the ways it can build value for the Uniswap community. That ends today!
This restriction was in great part due to a hostile regulatory environment that cost thousands of hours and tens of millions in legal fees. Fortunately, the regulatory environment has shifted
This proposal comes from a strong desire to see the Uniswap protocol win as the global decentralized exchange for tokenized value
At a high level, the proposal:
1. Turns on protocol fees and uses them to burn UNI
2. Sends @unichain sequencer fees to the UNI burn
3. Burns 100M UNI from the treasury representing the protocol fees that could have been burned if fees were turned on at token launch
4. Introduces Protocol Fee Discount Auctions, a new way to improve LP outcomes and internalize MEV to the protocol
5. Introduces "aggregator hooks” which will turns Uniswap v4 into an onchain aggregator that collects protocol fees on external liquidity sources
6. Focus Labs on driving protocol growth and adoption, including a contractual agreement to only pursue initiatives that align with Uniswap governance interests
^ As part of this, Labs will stop collecting fees on its interface, wallet, and API to supercharge distribution and adoption of the Uniswap protocol
7. Moves Foundation employees to Labs with a shared goal of accelerating protocol growth, under a growth fund from the treasury
8. Move governance-owned Unisocks liquidity to v4 on Unichain and burn the LP position
I believe Uniswap protocol can be the primary place tokens are traded. This proposal sets the stage for the next decade of its growth
@Uniswap will ship relentlessly over the coming years and supercharge the ecosystem of developers, LPs, and traders building on top
I'm so grateful to the community that has made this all possible, and excited for what's next

We're thrilled to announce a new investment from Coinbase Ventures @cbventures. This funding extends our recent Series A round led by @PayPal Ventures and @GeneralCatalyst, and will accelerate development of our infrastructure for autonomous AI agent payments and adoption of the x402 protocol.
Kite @GoKiteAI is now natively integrated with the x402 Agent Payment Standard, positioning ourselves as a primary execution and settlement layer for the protocol. As one of the first L1s to fully implement x402-compatible payment primitives, Kite allows AI agents to seamlessly send, receive, and reconcile payments through standardized intent mandates, unlocking the full potential of the agentic economy.
Coinbase Ventures' investment will support Kite’s continued product and infrastructure development across three converging market shifts shaping the autonomous economy:
✅The Need for a Programmable Trust Layer
✅Scalable Blockchain with the x402 Protocol as the Native Payment Rail for AI
✅The Rise of Agentic Commerce as a Growth Engine
The future of the agentic economy is here, and we're proud to have Coinbase Ventures supporting us on this groundbreaking journey.
