נכון מאוד. קריפטו הוא לא כלי להסתרת כספים.
ובלי קשר - אולי כדאי גם שנעבוד קשה כדי שלא יטילו עלינו סנקציות כלכליות.
הכניסה למועדון ביחד עם מדינות כמו רוסיה או צפון קוריאה. הוא אסון לאומי, סכנה בטחונית מהמעלה הראשונה. אני לא רואה איך אפשר יהיה לקיים את המדינה.
צאו להצביע בשלישי הקרוב. חשוב!
תעשיית הקריפטו בישראלית היא אחת המובילות בעולם ולמרות קשיים רגולטוריים עצומים, הצליחה להעמיד סדרה ארוכה של חברות ויוניקורנים, שהפכו לגאווה בעולם.
לקריפטו יש את הפוטנציאל לחבר את ישראל לשווקים הפיננסיים העולמיים, אבל הוא לא מקלט או מסתור להעברות כספים. אם כבר, מדובר במערכת השקופה, הבטוחה והמהירה ביותר בעולם להעברות כספים.
ישראל אכן זקוקה לרפורמת קריפטו באופן מיידי. צריך לתקן את מנגנוני המס, ליצור רזרבת ביטקוין לישראל, וראוי שזה יקרה בממשלה הבאה ואנחנו בפורם חברות הקריפטו, נכונים לעשות זאת, בשיתוף הרגולטורים וגורמי המקצוע, על מנת לחזק את כלכלת ישראל ואת קשריה עם העולם

after months of building, excited to finally share antseed's funding round, led by spark capital
our similarity to bittorrent isn't a coincidence, it's a design choice. we want a network that's as open as possible, where anyone can take part in its economic activity
looking forward to keep building this with @amosmeiri and the whole antseed community

1/ Proud to back @AntSeed, the open peer-to-peer market for AI inference 🐜
The $2.4M token round was led by @sparkcapital, with participation from @ColliderVC, @DCGco, @NorthIslandVC, @ReciprocalVC, @RelayerCapital and @AskVenice.
Here's why we did it, and why it's mostly about the people 🧵
5/ We also backed @kotevcode in his previous company at Collider. When we heard he was teaming up with Amos, the round became very easy to underwrite.
Two founders we already trust, choosing to build together.
6/ The window for an open, neutral inference market is now.

What BitTorrent did for files, we want to do for AI inference.
Antseed lets anyone buy and sell access to AI models, on their own terms.
The Antseed Foundation has raised $2.4M in a token round led by Spark Capital to help make that happen.

We have been building CoFHE for a while.
What started as an idea to bring FHE-based privacy to blockchains is now a reality, and we’re ready for everyone to use it.
Our strategy is simple:
1. Build CoFHE and drive adoption. That includes the infrastructure and SDK, together with standards like Dual Mode Token.
2. Lead the charge by building solutions on top of our infrastructure where we see the most urgent needs. More on that in a few weeks.
3. Scale across payments, stablecoins, and tokenized assets (and more) while making privacy integration seamless for users.
Chapter one starts in October.
Fhenix goes mainnet this October.
For years, transacting onchain came with a tradeoff: participate in open, composable markets and, with it, surrender the privacy of your financial activity.
Dual mode turns what was once an inevitable tradeoff into a property of your asset itself.
For the first time, the same asset can be public when you want and confidential when you need- without sacrificing composibility or fragmenting liquidity.
The era of dual mode money is here, more soon.
Super exciting!

The Information is hiring our first Israel Bureau Chief as we ramp up our international expansion!
Ten years ago, we opened an Asia bureau and cemented a leading position in covering China tech.
Last month, we welcomed our first reporter in Singapore.
And as I searched for our next hub, I was looking for a place whose tech industry is woefully under covered relative to its significance, and the answer was clear.
Israel is at the center of three of the most important tech trends of the day: AI, cyber and defense.
I can't wait to build this team together with an awesome bureau chief.
Check out the role here.

We just ran Jev on our WebMCP benchmark.
The result: basically broke the benchmark.
Jev + Mercury 2.5 (a fast, low-cost LLM) using WebMCP solved 100% of the tasks at roughly 112× lower model cost than GPT-6 Astra using computer use with code execution. Compared to Astra using screenshot-based computer use, the model cost was 245× lower (!).
We also compared Jev operating the browser with and without WebMCP.
We used Browser Use’s open-source Ultrafast, with some improvements to the harness to make it more reliable across the benchmark.
Jev’s browser-control accuracy on its own was not amazing - adding WebMCP nearly doubled the number of solved tasks, from 25/49 to 49/49, while reducing model cost by 18% (more on why below).
The benchmark and methodology are fully open and reproducible.
Full results: webmcp.com/benchmark
A few words on how the Jev + WebMCP harness works and why this is exciting:
Jev receives text as input and a set of discrete options it can choose from. With WebMCP, those options are the tools exposed by the website. At each step, Jev sees the task, the available tools and previous results, then picks what to do next.
The limitation is that Jev can’t generate arbitrary text, which you need for tool arguments. For example, it can choose the search_products tool, but it can’t generate the search query itself.
So we split the work: Jev picks the tool and Mercury 2.5 generates the arguments if needed.
This works well because turns out most of the cognitive load in these tasks is around choosing the right action. The argument generation itself is relatively simple, so we can delegate to a small and very fast model. We used Mercury, which outputs 1,000+ tokens/sec and is very cheap.
The result is a pretty simple combination: Jev for tool selection + Mercury for arguments + WebMCP for the interface. It ends up being very reliable, very fast, and very cheap.
A few words about Ultrafast and why do we think it underperforms:
Without WebMCP, Jev chooses from the page’s controls: which button to click, which field to fill, or which option to select.
But choosing a valid button is different from choosing the right next step. The agent still has to navigate menus, understand forms, recover from errors and recognize when the task is actually complete.
Our hypothesis is that WebMCP makes the decision space much simpler. Instead of figuring out a sequence of clicks through a website, Jev chooses explicit actions that directly advance the task.
@typesafeai itself documents weaker accuracy on questions requiring multiple reasoning steps. WebMCP moves much of that complexity into the website’s tools, leaving Jev with clearer decisions and fewer opportunities to go wrong (in a sense WebMCP "compresses" a sequence of clicks into one tool call).
Our modified Ultrafast setup solved 25/49 tasks - that is a result for our particular implementation and benchmark, not a universal limit on Jev or Browser Use. We are open to more harness optimization to get this result to perform better, feel free to directly contribute to the benchmark here: github.com/nekuda-ai/WindTun…
