There’s a new thing we’re building that a few sneaky fuckers managed to find and access before we closed beta access. Not sure what to do about this apart from say gg and more soon etc etc

I strongly believe that the distaste for AI and onchain tech is the lack of adequate technical communication that has the potential to influence adoption and understanding. A lot of people could be doing more onchain if they simply just get it in plain language

yes we over-hired during covid because i incorrectly built 2 separate company structures (square & cash app) rather than 1, which we corrected mid 2024. but this misses all the complexity we took on through lending, banking, and BNPL. and that we’re now targeting $2M+ gross profit per person, 4x our pre-covid efficiency, which stayed flat at ~$500k from 2019 until 2024. we have and do run an efficient company... better than most.

JUNE 2028. The S&P is down 38% from its highs. Unemployment just printed 10.2%. Private credit is unraveling. Prime mortgages are cracking. AI didn’t disappoint. It exceeded every expectation. What happened?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ citriniresearch.com/p/2028gi…
