As many of you know, $NATIVE started as a side project, roughly four weeks ago. It's already come a LONG way. Prints didn't exist four weeks ago. Passports didn't exist four weeks ago. But I'm just getting started. Native is just getting started. And I'm starting Birthday Labs.

Birthday Labs has been in the works for a bit over a week now. Believe it or not, but it's been very hard to keep this one-man company quiet, so I'm excited to talk about it openly now.

Birthday Labs is named after two things: First? Birthdays are fairly unique in my family. My dad's a leap year baby. I'm on a national holiday. I have three daughters who share the same birthday. They aren't triplets.

Second? Thomas Paine's quote about the founding of America equally applies to the founding of Native, and in particular this special moment in history where AI agents, crypto, and consumer experiences intersect. AI will only come onchain once. So what's that Paine quote?

"A situation, similar to the present, hath not happened since the days of Noah until now... The birthday of a new world is at hand , and a race of men, perhaps as numerous as all Europe contains, are to receive their portion of freedom from the events of a few months."

This quote is so influential on my thinking and on this moment in which $NATIVE exists, that it's made it's way to the Birthday Labs' new website. Check it out here: https://birthdaylabs.com/

And this quote answers my "why". Why build Native? Why build digital economies? For our "portions of freedom". I see a world where crypto + AI + consumer experiences combine to help humans build wealth. A world where we *get* to work. Rather than *have* to work.

A world where our digital lives subsidize and empower our real world lives. This is happening already. Content creators. Digital influencers. Memecoin traders. Shopify merchants. WhatNot sellers. And soon? Native citizens. The future of work is the end of work.

Birthday Labs builds digital economies that increase human freedom. We can build an automated economy. That's exactly what I'm building with /nativefun. But not *just* Native. There's an ecosystem to be built here, with $NATIVE, Dots, Passports, and more all at its core.

It's extraordinarily exciting. But it's still day one. Welcome home, everyone. And happy birthday, Birthday Labs.
