We're so back. BTW - this is ALSO not the feature drop I've been teasing. But I am ALSO very happy to see the return of #CashAppFriday incentivizing our customers to SAVE towards their goals 💚

I read Robots of Dawn when I was about 8. I told people it was my favorite book, but really it scared the shit out of me. Watching Foundation today, I feel the exact same way — it is both amazing and terrorizing in such distinct ways. Isaac Asimov is an absolute master.

People in New York are just so competent. Across every industry, education level, income level, and skill set. It's such a refreshing place to be. Watch a valet. A sanitation worker. A banker. A food cart owner. A lawyer. A doorman. Competence relaxes me. ❤️ NYC

My 4yo loves Machine Gun Kelly (says other than her Dad, he's the only boy she likes), and my 2yo is obsessed with motorcycles. I figured with parents like us, our girls would always have an affinity for risk, but I'm not sure this was how I thought it would manifest.

No, this isn't the feature drop I've been teasing. Yes, I am very excited we've partnered with @RealChalamet to talk about how @CashApp has redefined money for the next generation. Enjoy your mangelwurzel. Use Cash App. 💚 hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/life…

Life update: I'm moving to the Bay Area! The great @ajambrosino is joining the Technical Staff at OpenAI (yes, yes, very proud) and we're taking the whole family across the country. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧🐈🐈‍⬛ Where should we live? Who should we know? Can my kids still learn algebra?

At a giant pool party in Las Vegas (during college) I won a Michael Jackson dance-off because I had taught myself the entire Thriller dance from this brand new app called YouTube. I’ve been hooked on pool parties ever since.

If I were you, I'd upgrade to version 5.7 so you're ready.

Who’s watching closely enough to figure out our next big launch?

New home screen widget for power users! Fastest way to surface your QR code and get paid. Fun little Hack Week project shipped in a few days. You love to see it. 💚

This doesn’t just describe great startups. It’s also a powerful explanation for why mature companies struggle to innovate - they’ve invested a lot to avoid “ideas that seem bad.” Execs might succeed at sparking more growth if they were trained as capital allocators not asset…

The funny thing about big ideas is that you just can’t force them. You have to just sit in your idiocy for a really really long time until the insight is ready to make itself clear. The discomfort is the learning. Just had one pop up that’s been bubbling for 2-3 years.

Did you know that Figma, Photoshop, Mac Preview, even GOOGLE DOCS come with automatic centering alignment tools as standard? You have to work really hard to get this on a mockup in 2025.

Bow down to the brand team of your dreams. We partnered with a$ap to pay off $1M in Cash App Afterpay payments. Customers and fans unite. 1-855-GET-ASAP.

Feeling like I haven't had enough founder time in my life recently. If you want to spend 30min with me to talk about anything (even just to vent to about how hard it is), give me your pitch. I'll make time for 5-10 founders in the next few weeks.

Amazing stuff from @milessuter + team with BTC POS integrations at #Bitcoin2025. On our BTC conversions product: "those who opted in have seen their bitcoin holdings grow by roughly 70% over the past year." That's wealth creation baby! 💙 🚀 cnbc.com/2025/05/27/blo…
