The @baseapp is an everything app. It’s like an app store with social and financial primitives. I think, as an L2, having a mainstream super app is a clever idea for onchain onboarding. It also combines @farcaster_xyz, @zora, and @xmtp_ for the social part smoothly. Base…
" It's sort of an everything app." CNBC breaks down the new @baseapp, and why it matters for creators.
Love seeing more real world use cases built on XMTP
It’s a great time to fly ✈️ The Flyte AI Team has been working on a clean process to message in @baseapp via @xmtp_ to get users onboarded and on the next Flyte! UX and being bug free is really important to us. This will be a big one so don’t miss it! #ProjectUpdates…
have been using crypto since 2017. i use bankr for 99% of my daily transactions at this point.
Now that I can trade where I’m talking, privately and securely, I honestly can’t imagine using any other wallet. The speed from conversation to transaction is near instant now.

In a future where AI agents handle our purchases, decisions, and guidance, trust is everything. I trust an agent built on XMTP—open, decentralized, and secure, ensuring my data stays mine.
Yes. The foundation for the agents you trust needs to be on a foundation you can really trust. Which means you don’t have to trust us. One that’s decentralized, quantum-resistant, open, and secure. That’s @xmtp_
The only agent I trust? The one that’s quantum-resistant and decentralized — @xmtp_ 😁
Never give up handcrafted writing Undertake the labor, work through the frustration Resist the temptation to become intellectually sedentary
Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.
Agree with this deeply.

We are moving to a future where every single person will have an agent that makes purchases on our behalf. Then it will make decisions on our behalf. Then it will tell us what it thinks we should do. The only thing that matters is trust. What agent do you trust?
Google and Apple both testing MLS now. Big step forward for MLS and great for @xmtp_ 9to5google.com/2025/07/16/goo…

Pros vs Amateurs Ask the best chef in the world how to make great food, and they’ll say something like: “It’s easy when you have the best ingredients from nearby. You don’t have to do much.” That’s the language to listen for. Confidence lives in what’s left unsaid.…
