How I’ve swapped @fold_app for my bank and earned bitcoin in the process:
1. Deposit 75% of paycheck directly into bitcoin on Fold
2. Spend 100% on credit cards -> soon to be on Fold’s 2% Bitcoin Rewards Credit Card
3. Buy gift cards for restaurants / stores on Fold to earn bitcoin back
4. Pay mortgage, credit card, and all other bills from Fold cash balance
5. Buy bitcoin with 100% of remaining fiat, earning a % back in bitcoin on all my bills

Had I sold 2,739 BTC a decade ago, I’d probably rather see it go to zero than live with the regret.
CHAMATH SAYS BITCOIN WILL EVENTUALLY BE HACKED AND GO TO ZERO
Speaking on the Moonshots podcast, billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya warned that advances in AI could eventually break Bitcoin’s cryptography.
He argues that the community is too divided to coordinate a transition to quantum-resistant security.
“I just think it’s capped, and then I think eventually it gets hacked, and then it goes to zero.”

The Cyber Pandemic is here. Your antennae should be raised. Time to mentally prepare for the propaganda onslaught that will inevitably result from today.
Resist the calls for complete control over the internet by governments and their trusted corporate partners.
“Crypto” is dead. Long live Bitcoin.
NEW: Andreessen Horowitz plans to drop "crypto" from the name of its flagship blockchain fund, according to The Information.
The reported rebranding comes just months after a16z raised $2.2 billion for its fifth crypto fund.

So lemme get this straight.
@chamath backed DCG's first round in 2015, swapping his ~$100 bitcoin for DCG equity when it was only up ~3x.
DCG has done a ~10x since, generously.
Bitcoin did ~280x.
Now he says it’s “capped” and eventually goes to zero.
Cope harder.

This story shows how hilariously broken online identity verification is from all relevant angles.
1. Your SSN, DOB, address history, etc. are sitting in countless data breaches and data-broker dumps. They’re cheap and widely available to basically anyone who looks.
2. KYC/AML mostly just checks that the data exists and matches a real person. It doesn’t confirm the person signing up is actually the real person behind that identity.
Result: Amanda Smith spent three nights in jail and now faces up to six years in prison over a $1,000 CashApp scam account opened with her SSN and DOB. It wasn't necessarily opened by her, and the phone, IP, device, address, and other details don’t match.
The funniest (and yes, saddest) part is CashApp wouldn't give her information about the account because she can’t prove she’s the owner. Her personal info was good enough to open the account, but not good enough to access it in the future, apparently. To be clear, CashApp is likely just following the law here.
Anyway, we need to burn it all down and start fresh.
New: someone made a CashApp account in her name. She spent 3 nights in jail and now faces up to 6 years in prison
Amanda Smith was arrested because a scam led to a CashApp account in her name. But she says she didn't make it, and the data doesn't line up 404media.co/amanda-smith-ope…

What’s Ripple’s market cap?
BREAKING: President Trump announced a anti-fraud program that would pay people who expose fraud 1% of the money recovered. “If you find $1 billion, we are giving a commission to that person of 1%,” he said.

Just watched the @netflix Instadocs about the @OpenAI cyberattack on @huggingface. Super disappointing, as they went for maximum anthropomorphism of the technology and full doomer mode.
I spent more than two hours with them trying to correct all their mistakes and ground this in reality, explaining that agents are technological systems, not aliens. But it looks like the drive to scare people for maximum views was too strong.
Also, they didn’t mention the lack of containment and monitoring of the agents, how closed-model safeguards blocked our defensive work, or how we defended ourselves with AI using an open model. And that we still lack a lot of information and transparency, including full agent traces and that companies need to remain accountable for what their agents do.
It ends up being a fun sci-fi movie though!

YOUTUBE JUST BANNED SIMPLY BITCOIN
We bootstrapped this company off zero and we are a team of 15 that depends on YouTube for our livelihoods.
We strictly follow the community guidelines and believe this to be a mistake.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight at you, then they add you to their Long-Term Capital Markets Assumptions paper and predict you'll be the best-performing asset of the next decade.
This will undoubtedly go to some terrible leftist causes…
We’re committing a portion of Anthropic’s shares to the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund, a new wholly owned entity dedicated entirely to the public benefit.
It will start off with 5% of our shares. For every 50% increase in the company’s value over a set baseline, we can contribute up to an extra 2%, subject to our board’s discretion.
In total, this means that roughly 20% of Anthropic’s shares are committed to the public good. Our co-founders have already pledged to donate 80% of their equity, and around half our employees are donating a portion of their equity as part of a donation matching program we’ve run since our founding.
In the post below, we share more details about our new fund.

Interesting post from Gregory Maxwell on Hackernews.
He claims that about a month ago he (with a friend) burned a lot of credits on Anthropic trying to solve the exact questions Anthropic announced today in their blog regarding ECDSA seeds.
