Back to building 😊
GM! We’re excited to announce that we’re in the current cohort of @a16zcrypto’s Crypto Startup School 👾
We’re building a new way to bring together web3 friends and communities. Stay tuned for updates!
When I first spoke with @dexhorthy, it was clear he was building in a way that would become obvious to everyone else in a year. Factory is lucky to have them!

I’m so proud of our country for rejecting bigotry.
And foreign wars, reckless spending, and rampant corruption

Another colocation opportunity in the Philippines:
We have secured 100 MW IT capacity, with additional 37 acres for data center development. Ready to build Q2 2027. Power, water, permits fully secured

All of these SF and California Prop ads I’m seeing just use scare tactics. None of them explain what the policies actually do.
YouTube ads are getting out of hand… they’ve been taking over half my screen in the middle of a video playing. I am simply a data center financing pawn 😔
These guys build deep domain expertise faster than anyone I know. Betting on them to drive down the cost of robots!
This is so sick! Been hearing the insatiable appetite for biology data from Anthropic (and other model companies) is outpacing pharma demand and accelerating a suite of biotech lab companies.
Huge congrats @julian_englert and team!!!

AI transformed coding, science is next
@ReactorfieldAI makes scientists and deep tech startups AI-native
Built by me and @berkbuilds to accelerate science with frontier AI
Ever since I saw his first product Scope, knew @raymondhechen was going to build something amazing. So happy to see all of his determination pay off! Congrats to the @tomo team!!!
.@dwr and @varunsrin gave decentralized social their best shot. Sometimes with startups things just don’t work out the way you hoped. You try your best to do right by your team, your community, and your investors. That’s exactly what they did 🫡
Given some rumors, wanted to post a few clarifications:
Farcaster is not shutting down. The protocol works and will continue to work. There were 250,000 MAU in December and over 100,000 funded wallets. The acquirer, Neynar, is a venture-backed startup and plans to shift Farcaster in a more developer-focused direction.
As for Merkle, we’re planning to return the full $180M raised back to investors. Over the last 5 years, we tried to be a good steward of investor capital.
Finally, I bought my house with Coinbase IPO proceeds.
Betting that Polymarket's new Bridge & Swap endpoints will become the largest source of funds flowing to Polygon from other chains. It fixes the biggest challenge for getting USDC.e which is not offered by any major crypto onramps. They’re going to commoditize bridging infra services and open up a new revenue source with a fee on volume 🧠
$PNKSTR is the first token where I can root for red on the charts 🤯
NFTStrategy by @Rhynotic @token_works is not just the most exciting thing to happen to NFTs in years—
it’s a masterclass in incentive alignment and a breakthrough in fungible tokens.
Yes, NFTStrategy is massive for NFTs.
But what excites me most is what this implies for fair launches and value accrual for the next generation of tokens.
