Walking out to Bethel Music prior to a combat sport is crazy work. Not my style of worship music, but I have to applaud the choice. Well done, Katie.

From time to time I think about how Abraham Lincoln signed the legislation to start the Secret Service then went and got shot that same night.

Visited Close Company last night (new cocktail bar concept from Death & Co). They had an old-fashioned with shochu in it. It was good. But it wasn't an old-fashioned. That's just a different cocktail altogether.

Earlier today, a couple of Clanker v3.1 coins were launched via Native that initially seemed to be an act of spoofing. This was reported by the community – @dish, @carter, and I immediately investigated. The culprit was a formatting bug, due to wallet addresses being converted to decimals for Native users without a Farcaster account. This address was eventually became formatted as a FID, which resulted in the curious coins being launched. The issue was immediately patched; monitoring continues. Funds are safe, and no intentional spoofing was found to have taken place via Native or Clanker.

Conflict always starts on the inside first. If you're jealous over someone else's traction, term sheet, or team, check your heart and mind before it descends further. James also notes that a reason you don't have those things may be because it could ruin you. Sometimes not getting what you want is an act of grace.

I've been using v4 for a couple weeks now, and very excited about what it enables for /nativefun moving forward. Congrats to the Clanker team. Onwards.

While Jesus generally supported currencies (ie: "give to Caesar what is Caesar's"), He's historically not a fan of marketplaces that take advantage of arbitrage opportunities. @horsefacts.eth thinks He'd love tokens; I could go either way tbh.

Most "startup CEO" resources out there focus on venture fundraising. In my experience, that's one of the least important and most downstream parts of leading a startup. Recruiting, team culture, speed of execution, finding PMF, founder-led sales, managing whiplash and pivots, investor relations all matter more IMO.

"Where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder." – very counter-cultural advice from James.

In preparation for the new app & Dots, legacy tokens that are paired with Native will migrate to WETH*. Why? • Allows all tokens to be WETH-paired. • Migrates legacy tokens to Clanker v4. • Gives creators 10% vaults. • Enables automated $NATIVE buybacks. *except $BALLOON
