We’ve been heads down on a new @zora release. It should be a meaningful improvement for creators and traders. Excited to be rolling it out this week.

Im curious to see where manipulation of prediction markets nets out given their increasing prominence as a source of truth. For elections—where the odds could have a non zero impact on votes similar to polls—you could see a significant % of campaign advertising spend find its way into just betting on their candidate winning: becoming a literal war of attrition. The above line of thinking only makes sense if the perception of current odds has a meaningful impact on voter decision making, but that doesn’t seem that far from reality.

In 2023 I got close with noting Diet coke being a modern Cigarette. But whoever said "fridge cigarette" nailed it. It's using one of my fav wordplay tricks, similar to calling a bird a sky fish and a fish an ocean bird. Ideas are great, but execution is everything: especially with words. Gonna work this into future process. https://x.com/js_horne/status/1674494195120128001

“Spend dollars. Earn Bitcoin” is a banger from Coinbase. Now we just need “Hold dollars. Earn Bitcoin”. Which is basically an option to get USDC rewards in BTC (or any other crypto if you’d like).

Stripe acquiring Bridge and Privy looks like a great build up to their own vertically integrated stablecoin.

Shoutout to the Privy team. They've made life a lot easier for builders and helped expand the market in a short period of time. Can't wait to see what they do with the weight and resources of Stripe behind them. Onramps and wallets for everyone!

Product idea: autocaster it's a tool that helps you set up autocasts for anything that happens onchain. In jake's case it would be sending a tweet everytime there is an ATH. For others it could be for certain actions like trading, creating etc.

Stablecoins going mainstream validates blockchains. This creates a level playing field and open market for new currencies. The dollar likely outcompetes existing fiat currencies (that’s the current trend onchain) and then will face new competition in the new paradigm.

Once you tokenize the most atomic unit you can then tokenize and bundle at every level of abstraction above it. In the case of social: Start with the posts, then you can tokenize creators, trends and memes that emerge from them with strong flywheels and novel economics.

Now imagine if Circle was also a stockcoin that could be traded onchain. There'd probably be even more short term demand for direct exposure to stablecoins.

Friday @zora update: We upgraded to Uniswap V4 for our markets. Creator rewards are now 1% on each trade and all payouts are in $zora (instead of also earning more of your post). This means more rewards for creators and less built up sell pressure for traders. More soon :)
