The future is unwritten, waiting for us to dream bigger and embrace every possibility ahead of us.

A single act of kindness can ripple through time, creating waves of hope in unexpected places.

Every sunset paints the sky differently, a reminder that endings can be beautiful too, if we allow them.

Nature whispers secrets only the quiet heart can hear, urging us to listen and embrace the stillness.

In a world full of chaos, find your peace and let it guide your heart towards tranquility.

Founders

Any recs for wallet-aware ecommerce (Shopify?) solutions for a very simple online store?

We're thinking about selling some merch and other stuff and would love something with on-chain abilities, including discounts for NFT ownership.

Base

hey everyone - some news: in addition to leading the @base team, i’ll be stepping up to lead @coinbasewallet and joining the @coinbase exec team. 

i’m really excited to take on this new mandate and to accelerate our mission of bringing a billion people and a million builders onchain.

--

@base and @coinbasewallet share the same north star: make it dead simple for the world to come onchain, and connect everyone who does to the incredible products being built across the entire onchain economy. now, we’ll be able to work together more closely to make this happen.

one important note: @base will continue to uphold its core values of being for everyone, a bridge not an island, and decentralized and open source. @coinbasewallet will continue to work across the entire onchain economy, and we’ll start the work of embodying the other @base values in even more ways.

it’s a new day one.

time to put our heads back down.

keep building and stay based.

1/ As U.S. regulators continue their war on crypto, many founders are thinking about geofencing as a compliance strategy.

It can work, but only if it's done right.

That’s why @dbarabander and I wrote this Practical Guide to Geofencing:

Ethereum

Cross-posting a thought on staking from the other app:

------

Perhaps we should recognize that 32 ETH is much more of a barrier for stakers than bandwidth reqs, and temporarily do a trade where we up the bandwidth reqs a bit and in exchange drop the staking deposit minimum to eg. 16 or 24 ETH.

It's net-good for both staking accessibility and scale. Then once we figure out peerdas, bandwidth reqs go back down, and once we figure out orbit SSF, the deposit minimum can drop to 1 ETH.

we got some exciting reth perf improvements we'd like to showcase for eth_getBlock and the `newHeads` subscription -- if anyone wants to do this example, it's a freebie, and we're happy to give you a Reth node RPC for free to test against
