I am beyond restrain now; I am flowing with the currents
The space is moving at an unprecedented speed- you do not have the luxury to hold, pause or stop - you must observe on the go- you have to let go to stay with the currents or the vortex will spit you out
You must figure out as you dwindle rapidly in this vorte...

not a lot of people are taking about how clawdbot doesn’t show intermediate steps/chain of thought and even does high leverage things like cli commands in background
it’s scary at first but once that fear subsides, the magical moment of “it’s done” is very addictive
i suspect a lot of llms to completely remove COT f...

People generally become more focused with age
Experimentation costs both time and capital, but as you age, the cost of time outweighs the cost of capital
There's this solemn realization that you don't have a lifetime to do what you want to do. What once felt infinite, now can be counted in trenches.
So the judgement...

Farcaster has always held a special place in my heart
This is a place where I found the bunch that made me come here everyday: people who were optimist, excited about tech, experimenters, and really cared about crypto from their own unique lens
I saw brilliant builders, built so many random projects, built @intellige...
Neynar is acquiring Farcaster.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll transfer ownership of the protocol contracts and code repositories, the Farcaster app, and Clanker to Neynar. They will run and maintain everything going forward.
Some members of the Merkle team, Varun, and I will step back from day-to-day work on Farcaste

It's saturday, snowing outside
Hotel California plays on the system
Claude code pings to let me know it has deliberated on my plan and is now ready to execute on it
I press a key, the music stops, I let it know one last consideration before it can execute
I press enter, the music starts again and off goes claude

I will not be nerfed by AI Slop
The beauty of X is the density of the thought
To compete, you have to force-fit a valid complex thought in the fewest words you can- this is efficient, respectful to the writer and the reader- this is what attracts the smarts, the intellectuals - not the fucking polarizing hot takes

Cyberpunk arc is back wohoooooo
2026 is the year that we take back lost ground in terms of self-sovereignty and trustlessness.
Some of what this practically means:
Full nodes: thanks to ZK-EVM and BAL, it will once again become easier to locally run a node and verify the Ethereum chain on your own computer.
Helios: actually verify the data you're

the algos are fuelled by intentional attention (creation) but really scale on mindless attention (consumption)
the trade is very lopsided
there’s a lot to gain, and a lot less to lose when you’re creating and completely vice versa when consuming (>99% noise, <1% signal to gain)
it physically holds true as well; tim...

Need suggestions
I ran out of Opus 4.5 reqs pretty fast using Cursor Pro ($20/mo)
What’s the best path to maximizing Opus 4.5 usage without burning exorbitant amounts?
Should I get Cursor Max/Ultra? or use Pay per use in it? or maybe Claude code? Is there a good balance?
I don’t think I can go back from the Opus 4...

I’ve up leveled significantly every year by intentionally choosing where to dig, what to look for, what to optimize, and keeping myself accountable with all sorts of techniques.
I do this every Dec- specifically the last 2 weeks, where I try to review the current year, decide the overarching strategy for the next, and...

Anyone who says “social, not finance” confuses me
The fact that it’s social and it’s crypto allows us to reveal a new primitive consequence
the fundamental of a social media built on top of composable financial rails demands utility that extracts newer signals from these new primitives
What is Farcaster if not an ...

- I think innovation at the social layer is the key to moving into the more aspirational adjacent possibility space of crypto and Farcaster is uniquely positioned to lead here (the app, the protocol, the community)
- I want Farcaster to succeed as social network
- I think the intersection of crypto x social is the most promising place for Farcaster to innovate
- I think markets are the core innovation of crypto
- I think markets are powerful tools that can bring good and evil into the world
- I don't want Farcaster to just be a c

iOS 26 has been a letdown in both utility and beauty
Utility: Constant software glitches, Screenshots glitching, 2 months with the device but I still can’t successfully navigate the call menu, os freezes, apps regularly breaking
Beauty: Liquid glass was a fascinating idea which is not scaling and we’re seeing that in...

I like this idea. Thought of doing something like this last year under the name “Bloom”
The idea was to incentivize interaction and be able to push a fully incentivized feed. I hadn’t solved for sybil and spam, but interesting to see what team has in store.

The conclusion is that the experiment was successful in a way that it pushed the line further, but unsuccessful in a way that it couldn't bring sustainability to the system.
YoYo Mechanism's biggest problem is non-issue of new supply to keep the ball rolling.
Re: token burning on strategies
Curious to see how the flywheel holds up in extreme limited supply
As supply dries up, the trading slows down => so does the treasury revenue
I think the strategy flywheel needs a way to "increase" the supply in lieu of keeping the system running and economy chruning

The clankers are coming home
We’re excited to share that Clanker is joining Farcaster!
Clanker is the leading launchpad on Base and home to projects like Bankr, Noice, Bracky and more. We’re thrilled to join forces to make it easier for everyone to create and participate in onchain communities. We plan to integrate Clanker more deeply into the a

Grateful to be working in crypto.
No other field comes close.
Growing up, I always wanted to work on systems that had the capability to fork humanity at a certain point.
Everyday, I wake up and spend countless hours of my brain cycles thinking about this field naturally.
Such a pleasure seeing the hyper-tokenizatio...

The reason I’ve been bearish about AI browsers is because I don’t see them as the final frontier of consolidation of agent layer
they will move deeper: from tabs to browsers, from browsers to OS, from OS to physical spaces
The only way this sustains is if we are finally seeing the Browser as an OS arc happen
