Future of agentic finance ft. my bionic arm & food poisoning Always a blast to share insights at @PanteraCapital Global LP summit! 7 years and counting!

World’s most valuable bank now on @ethereum @jpmorgan deposits powered by @Alchemy How it works: JPM Coin represents dollars deposited at JPMorgan. Approved institutional clients can move those dollars on Ethereum around the clock—to pay each other or buy tokenized assets. Think of how stocks went from paper certificates to electronic trading. The shares stayed the same; moving them became easier. This is a similar shift for bank deposits: the dollars are still at JPMorgan, but Ethereum becomes a network for moving them.

Broadly used consumer apps integrating crypto are key accelerants for adoption Exchanges -> Self Custody -> EFTs -> Consumer Apps @CashApp bringing more crypto capabilities to 59M US citizens is gamechanging for the industry Next up @Apple pay 👀

Tried booking flights with all my agents 1hr later, discovered what actually works today: 1. @davehappyminion (@openclaw) - opened browser on my mac mini to search - tried logging in to Alaska - refused to do CAPTCHA (tbf not upgraded to latest Codex) - note: had used @OpenAI computer use to book flights last December - though slow worked! 🔴 result: refused to do CAPTCHA 2. Bob (@OpenAI Dot) - Interestingly agreed to do CAPTCHA (though codex didn't) - First login failed bc submitted before completing the CAPTCHA - Second login failed because the CAPTCHA expired before password submission - I took over browser and did captcha - Browser credential protection blocked checkout 🔴 result: trouble logging in & refused to do checkout 3. Stuart (@Muse) (yes they are all minions 🤣) - refused to log in to my alaska account / use browser - booked through @DuffelHQ - used @link to save cards & get tx history - used @DuffelHQ flight API to book flights - wasn't able to add TSA pre # - wasn't able to choose seats 🟡 result: took a bit of time but partially worked! 4. @instinct - tried automating browser, said "Alaska's site beat me: login worked and your account came up, but it kept killing the session at checkout." - @link for cards - used @DuffelHQ API to book (instinct refused to say what api, but showed up on @link) - no TSA pre or seats 🟡 result: smoothest experience, partially worked! Overall thoughts: - knowledge about you / information entry definitely key & lockin. booking flow will get smoothed out quickly by better browser use / apis. definitely will default to whatever knows all my info even if only 80% as good as others in tech. - real world frictions still need smooth out. The small interactions make or break the experience - booking flights still faster with google flights -> logged in airline account than agent. (this will prob change in < 2 months) - Instinct and @openclaw by far the best human style interaction and starting to feel like a real assistant - ultra clear that all of these technologies are incredible and over time will be the medium of interaction with the internet. Within 2 years agent chats & background agents likely replace 80% of human web browser use.

Crypto products in Northeast Asia now up to 8x faster ⚡️ @Alchemy powers more API calls than Google does searches All of those tokenized stocks, stablecoins, RWA, memes now loading before you can blink in the most active crypto region of the world.

Our goal: deliver the fastest infra anywhere in the world. Last week, we went live in Tokyo 🇯🇵 🗼 ⚡ #1# at p95 on @0xPolygon, @BNBCHAIN, and @arbitrum ⚡ 100% success rate, no retries ⚡ Across 4 other providers And we’re only getting faster. Take a look 👇

Introducing Chain Rankings The first real view into the crypto ecosystem. Token prices can be manipulated. Onchain volumes faked. Developer usage is the only real metric. Despite the market crashing 30%+, ecosystem activity is up 5x in 2 years 👇

Something big is happening in banking right now. @StanChart just said it will let institutional clients mint and redeem @circle's USDC directly, days after @BNYglobal, the world's largest custody bank, did the same. The biggest banks in the world are quietly becoming stablecoin infrastructure.

today we're rolling out a 6-10x speed up for the entire crypto ecosystem - custom hardware - CPU optimization - globally distributed data centers + custom edge proxy eth_calls at latest now blazingly fast after powering trillions of API requests & trillion of dollars for @jpmorgan, @Fidelity, @RobinhoodApp, @Polymarket we're now at the level of micro optimizing custom hardware to get the next level of performance
