Can AI get good enough to do my crypto taxes please Sam Altman I am begging you it would save my life 🙏
There is currently $7.4 Billion USD sitting in Spark on mainnet that would immediately double their yield *from the exact same protocol* by bridging to Unichain or OP Mainnet. ~9% APY on stables is much better than ~4.5% APY
We Just Unlocked More OP Rewards ⚡️ Spark is now emitting: ~ 76,000 OP/week ~ boosting APY to 4.42% at current TVL No lockups. No gimmicks. Just pure @Optimism rewards on Spark! Now live till end of 2025. Start now 👇 app.spark.fi/rewards
Tesla's biggest autonomy advantage has always been that it has millions of cars on the road constantly collecting data for it's own algorithms. I guarantee you that employees at the Tesla Diner will be wearing some kind of video-capture glasses sooner rather than later to…
Tesla Diner is retro-futuristic diner & drive-in charging experience all wrapped into one 80 V4 Supercharger stalls are open to all NACS-compatible EVs, making it the largest urban Supercharger in the world
I think it will take 2-3 years for people to recognize the genius of the strategy team at Coinbase They are making a huge push to onboard coinbase-wrapped BTC, XRP, Doge, Sol, ADA, local stablecoins, etc. Now that stablecoins are legal, there will be a huge amount of onchain…
I used Grok 4 Heavy to bet $2k on polymarket 48 hours ago and I'm already up 25%... Am I just lucky or is it time to go all in? 😅

Jack had a massive impact on the grants council and will be sorely missed. He helped pioneer the audit grants, RFPs, and had an unwaveringly high standard for grant applicants. I am running for Grants Council again this season and hope to carry this pursuit of quality forward…
I won't be running for the @Optimism Grants Council this coming season. Will just be too busy with @VelodromeFi and @AerodromeFi. Huge things ahead, and I need to direct all my energy there. Feels a little sentimental. My work with Optimism – including my lobbying for the GC's…
Looks clean though 😮💨

This is quarter-to-quarter transaction growth Would you believe that OP Mainnet (Optimism) grew faster than Arbitrum from Q1 to Q2? From looking at CT I would have thought the opposite

This means that @ImperiumPaper probably just saved Optimism $40million USD next year at current prices. It will still have 20 million OP to work with which is very chunky and allows more refinement to the metrics-based approach that Retrofunding has been using for the last year.…
Budget proposal for Optimism retro moved from 87m $OP ➡️ 20m $OP after @labsGFX pushback. GFX Labs always guarding that tokenholder chicken coop.
Its crazy to me that probably the biggest investment opportunities out there, at the very least as a hedge, are OpenAI and xAI. But if you are a normie it is impossible to get into either. It is even difficult for accredited investors. Why can't there be a tokenized marketplace…
Optimism’s Interop as explained by anime girl. Also, why does she randomly interject with “meow” all the time? 💀😂
Ever wondered where the story of @optimism grants begins? 🔴 Before they had the means to distribute at scale, they were the ones looking for grants to sustain and that experience shaped everything. New piece on how, sometimes, struggle can breed innovation
The truth is that there are cameras and scanners everywhere in the world you go today. If they are stealing my iris data (which I don't believe they are), at least they are doing it for something useful.
I forgive all the people who erroneously stated that @worldcoin steals people's eyeballs. I know they were just being emotional and were under a lot of stress from a long drawn out bear market. They didn't do their homework, and I think they get that now. I think we should…
Even with my terrible execution, the grok 4 trade is officially profitable: x.com/opmichael_eth/…
Saw some tweets yesterday and decided to actually see what happens when I let Grok 4 bet $1,000 on @polymarket for me. It said pump fun valuation would be greater than $5B btw

If they partner with OpenAI, it would give OpenAI distribution of chatGPT as well, which helps them compete with Google building it into Android. It could be the first LLM-native AND Crypto-native phone. Seemless agent-powered financial rails built into the custom hardware.…
Out of any crypto company, it would would make the most sense for @worldcoin to launch a phone. * They have the distribution to entry-level phone markets (doesn't have to compete on quality with iphone) * They've built hardware before * They already have a mini-app store that…
