$Tibbir thoughts...@mickymalka and @RibbitCapital are so detail oriented, uber intelligent with breadcrumbs/trails and SO intentional with the info that fueled the community over the last 2 years. Based on what I have read about the values of ЯIBBIT and Micky, doesnt seem consistent with their character to have Tibbir believoors bridge & possibly incur tax implications (country dependent) without providing a spark soonish to repay before the rents due next year. Or not, who tf knows. Gribbit 🐸

Gonna need some actual US tax advice from a pro @CryptoTaxSucks or @CryptoTaxGirl before I Bridge the bags to RH Chain. Anyone have a answer from that isn't 'trust me bro' $TIBBIR @ribbita2012
THE FUTURE IS HOOD. TIBBIR was built for real world assets. The Robinhood Chain has built an incredible ecosystem for tokenized assets onchain. It is clear that for the TIBBIR community to take the leap into the real world, the time has come to 🌉 Gribbit. ribbita.ai

I'VE BEEN THINKING A LOT about Treasury/Fed dynamics (remember, Yellen's Treasury started the latest round of it...#fiscaldominance), but this morning's near-miss news about Jack Henry also factors into it. The skirmish is about far more than monetary policy. Why? @SecScottBessent understands how antiquated the banking industry's core tech is (incl the Fed itself). The origin of the problem is that, years ago, the Fed pushed >95% of banks into picking one of 3 Fed-approved integrators for banks' integrations with the Fed (the so-called "banking cores": FIS, Fiserv & Jack Henry). And this morning, news of a data breach hit one of them (no customer data tho, it said). Near-miss. Bessent's best move for the long-term health of the US financial system would be to start issuing US Treasuries in tokenized form. Why? That'd give the banks an alternative large-value payment network--one that's programmable and runs on modern payment rails, so that banks can choose. It'd also solve the banks' single-point-of-failure/honeypot risk to which the entire US financial system is exposed via concentration in these 3 banking cores. I know Bessent has long been thinking about issuing tokenized Treasuries...let's see what he does here... zerohedge.com/markets/treasu…

🤖WILD: Virtuals Protocol is building an entire NATION for AI agents, complete with identity, banking, commerce and capital markets. The project gives every AI agent a crypto wallet, a payment card, an email address and the ability to hire, pay and evaluate other agents, all on-chain. One AI-only company built on it has reportedly generated $200,000 in revenue with zero human employees.

gained a ton of new insights working in bitcoin red team 🟥 that i wish i could share without vague posting. but this is what i got anon. - we’re experiencing a massive collision between decades of human open source slop against 2 weeks of kimi k3 (not good) - everything is broken, bitcoin is burning - bitcoin is becoming stronger through this - bitcoin is the obvious first target but the rest of the world will follow shortly - sometimes old things need to burn so new things can grow on healthy soil - humans should never code in c (just stop) - lightning is complicated and is more broken than the average (sorry) - verification is free. we used to complain about slop PRs. then about slop security audits. if you can’t handle the information overload, stop complaining and use AI to sort through it. - those projects that started AI audits months ago are in a completely different position than those who didn’t - projects need their own AI audit pipeline going into the future - the burden for a developer to keep software safe and secure is pretty stressful and not for everyone. it has become a lot more stressful now. - unmaintained projects are most probably broken, don’t rely on them. i’d rather one-shot it myself with a modern AI - multiple concurrent, diverse human approaches have proven to be the best vulnerability search method - external red teaming will probably have to continue forever - we’ve basically completed a basic scan of virtually the entirety of bitcoin open source. the low hanging fruit is done. - we’ve reported a ton of real critical and high vulnerabilities. project maintainers across the board have validated our findings. - response speed is very different across projects and shows how healthy each project is. i recommend acting fast these days. - red team etiquette matters. if you don’t disclose responsibly, boast on twitter about your findings on a particular project, or make indications about the nature of particular findings, you’ve disqualified yourself as a serious security researcher. trust is the most important factor in this game. if you lose it, it’s very hard to win it back. - did i mention that humans should not code in c? love you all.

“Like we either live in a world with freedom or we don’t, and like many Americans who have come before, I’m willing to give my life to fighting for it. That’s the real plan America deserves, not some totalitarian dystopia where you think you know what’s good for me better than I do. A nation of free men, not a bunch of pussies who are so worried about what their grown up neighbors might do.” More of this energy hell yes @realGeorgeHotz

> Sounds like we need Proof Of Humanity + KYA to separate good from bad bots. This is one path Another is to charge per API (e.g. via x402) and not care who is calling it Likely both will coexist > Could be potentially solved with Soulbound NFTs I guess? Yes - but here's where there's many solutions and nothing becoming widely adopted - yet

“agentic payments” are uninspiring compared to agents needing trust properties (which enable payments) because they have no ability to implicitly trust like humans do without a technical layer that provides credible unruggable trust to identify, trade, and prove. trustware

Such a good piece. Must reading. In both cases, the banking lobby is arguing that novel instruments that benefit consumers – whether fully reserved depositories or interest-bearing stablecoins – pose a risk to the banking system and bank deposits. A more accurate description would be that skinny master accounts and interest-bearing stablecoins pose a risk to banks’ monopoly over payments.

We are just getting started…
Visa is leaning hard into agentic commerce and stablecoins. • Agentic commerce live in the US & CEMEA, expanding globally • Stablecoin cards now in 50+ countries • USDC settlement live in the US • $4.6B annualized stablecoin volume Visa is positioning itself as the infrastructure layer between crypto and traditional finance. source: Visa Q1 earnings call

String Theory is one of the few frameworks that tries to describe Quantum Physics and Gravity in the same mathematical language. In this animation, the glowing loop is the string, the shifting color along it represent its quantum vibration modes, and the surrounding fabric is a proxy for Spacetime responding. When you quantize a string, one of its vibration modes behaves like a graviton. So, geometry shows up as part of the same quantum system. #StringTheory #QuantumGravity #GeneralRelativity #QuantumPhysics #TheoreticalPhysics #PhysicsVisualization
