Anyone here based in Puerto Rico or spent a lot of time there?
I’ll be in Rincón for a few days and looking for some recommendations

europoooooor

Spanish crypto bros can now fly commercial

Air Europa is now experimenting with crypto payments

I doubt a significant portion of their target users holds crypto or is willing to onramp

but if it works, they’d save a lot on card processing fees — and at worst, they could still grow their consumer base / increase revenue by attracting a few crypto bros

SQUAD

This week so far at /squad:

- onboarded 10 new referrers to the platform
- 100 new candidate submissions (primarily Rust devs with over >1k Github commits this year)
- signed 3 new clients who got matches within 24 hours
- scheduled 15 demos with new potential users
- organized NYC founder dinner (p.s. we still have a few spots if any builders in here are interested)

morning walking meetings change your whole day whenever NY shows up like this

Another epic /Squad event in NYC, this time co-hosted with 
@jhv and @miaunhashed 

It’s only really possible to pull this off so often in New York. One of the main reasons I moved here

Thanks to everyone that joined! (+ thank you 
Saratoga)

same post on X vs LinkedIn

is Crypto Twitter really the home for the Web3 community?

I'm talking to a multinational hotel business with > $1B in annual revenue and 50 sites that accept payments in multiple currencies. 

They’re interested in experimenting with stablecoin payment settlement at one location, with plans to scale across all sites if it works well. 

Who would be the best provider for this?

Founders

do we have any domain acquisition (.com, .ai, etc) experts here?

We've been using Circle to manage our crypto payments workflow

Recently we hit an issue blocking our ops

As a last resort, I emailed their CEO and it got fixed in hours!

For a company with $18T in volume, that level of responsiveness is inspiring and a great example to follow

This week’s most common interview question from Squad clients

the clearest sign that someone used AI to write something is when this massive “—” thingy shows up

Hey @abram ! I wanna use Splits for /squad and @samuellhuber.eth recommended I reach out.

Are you in Denver? Would be great to meet and see if the use case makes sense

Not excited for the drunken BD happy hours at ETH Denver so putting together a few 10-12 person dinners. 

DM if interested

blackbird

Blackbird just charged me a random (and really high) amount)after I had already paid the bill outside of the Blackbird app at one of their restaurants 

Anyone from the team here can help me resolve this?

brypto

$1.4 BILLION worth of ETH lost in the Bybit hack

https://x.com/whale_alert/status/1892942860686610609?s=46&t=LNZpH03544B952EdXOUs2w

Which is leading to this with Ethena: 

https://warpcast.com/iggy/0x45ecb45d

Apparently ByBit lost 7% of its assets. Ethena has 21% of their assets on ByBit

Would be a good idea to send Base and USDC to kick things off for a few people

Farcaster

The Warpcast wallet is an important milestone.

I can’t believe it took~30 years of the web and ~15 years of crypto before we got a proper wallet integrated into a social app.

But we have it.

Now we can finally start turning all that time spent online into gradual accumulation of NFTs and coins. Both here and on other sites, using Farcaster integration.

Great work @v and @dwr.eth.

This is what a hands on investors looks like
