This is precisely the reason why Elon and Jack want to delete all IP law. The term “dev mode” in this case is so descriptive that Figma should not be allowed to “own” it. Instead, Lovable and any other company should be free to use it. Of course, Lovable will send back a polite response and Figma can even drop the matter. However, to truly free the use of this term, someone should file a petition to cancel the trademark with the USPTO’s Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB). This is the mark, by the way: https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=98045640&caseSearchType=US_APPLICATION&caseType=DEFAULT&searchType=statusSearch

Ever wondered where to set up a company for your next project? Delaware, Texas, or maybe offshore — like the UAE or BVI? We’ve got you. We at Skala just dropped a comprehensive guide covering the top jurisdictions for startups (including crypto). The guide is interactive and comes with handy filters — from the usual (General, Crypto, AI, Solopreneurs, GameDev, Space, SPV, Asset Holding) to the truly useful ones, like Elon Fanbois or Zero Taxes. Links below 👇

🤫 We’re gearing up for our Product Hunt launch in a couple of weeks! To prepare, we’ve dropped the price for registering the most popular types of U.S. companies to just $750. 👉 Delaware C-Corp: https://www.skala.io/us-c-corp 👉 Delaware LLC: https://www.skala.io/us-llc This is a limited-time offer. So if you’ve been thinking about it, now’s the perfect time to make your move. P.S. And on launch day, we would love your support with an upvote! ❤️

We are hiring for Network School, starting immediately. You should apply if you want to bootstrap startup societies and build global meritocracy. Our basic thesis is that (a) Stanford and SF were amazing in their day but (b) they're in decline now and (c) the political process isn't going to save them so (d) we're going to have to build back better ourselves, if you will. If you share this thesis, and if you're an engineer, designer, or academic lecturer — please do apply at jobs.ns.com.

Exploring a new feature for Skala.io that allows investment funds to onboard their portfolio companies directly onto the platform. Portfolio companies get predictable solutions for their routine legal tasks, while funds gain insights into their portfolio's legal health (with customizable levels of visibility). How do you like the concept?

This is actually beyond my circle of expertise. I will withhold my judgment for now, but one specific downside that I am aware of is that no bank in the world will open a bank account for a Prospera company.

Because it is ridiculously expensive, a lot of compliance, and no specific benefits over offshore foundations. The only reason people still talk about Switzerland when it comes to crypto jurisdictions is that Ethereum was set up there 10 years ago.

For the sake of completeness: 🇪🇺 EU — if you really need a MiCA license, I would suggest looking into Ireland, where many crypto blue chips established their presence. 🇸🇬 Singapore is heavily regulated, better go to 🇭🇰 Hong Kong if you are in Asia. 🇦🇪 UAE was deemed crypto friendly; no longer so due to multiple regulations and hesitant banks. But 0% tax rate on personal income makes it an attractive destination for crypto founders nonetheless.
