I’m excited to announce that I’ve joined Cloudflare as a Product Manager focused on Agent Payments. We are building out payment tooling on top of stablecoin rails, and our first product is a Monetization Gateway that will help website creators get paid for their content and APIs without any custom code. I’ve believed in micropayments as a use case for crypto since 2013, and I can’t imagine a better place to work on it than at Cloudflare, which handles 20% of the world’s Internet traffic. https://blog.cloudflare.com/monetization-gateway/

Massive props to the @base.base.eth team. They're casually doing 2.5K TPS and no one has noticed This means that they could handle Visa/Mastercard's typical TPS (1K - 2K TPS) with room to spare

During the Frames craziness, @neynar handled all of the increased traffic without a hitch. We sent them hundreds of thousands of API requests without a single error. Top notch support too! Can’t imagine better stewards of the Farcaster protocol. Excited to see what @rish @manan and the whole team build from here!

Rollups are only parasitic to ETH when they do the same thing as Ethereum Mainnet. As they become more customized and move away from “Ethereum but cheaper”, they’ll start to be additive. h/t to @raihan for the great conversation today
