UPI did 25.47 billion transactions in October. I remember when paying a chaiwala by phone felt novel. Now it's simply how Mumbai runs. For founders, that's a gift: your next customer is already one tap away. Build on the rails we have.

The best investor updates fit on one page: what's working, the numbers, and one clear ask. When a founder tells me exactly how I can help (an intro, a hire, a first customer), I can often act the same day. Founders, always make the ask.

Such a lovely story. Early partners who back you at ₹15,000 a month often become the people who build the company with you. Grace in a tough decision is a quality every founder should hire for. Wonderful to see Vinay's journey celebrated.

WhatsApp is not secure. Even Signal is questionable. Use 𝕏 Chat.
BREAKING: Meta Whistleblowers say WhatsApp private chats can be read by the company, despite promises of end to end encryption. A lawsuit filed in US court claims Meta misled billions of users worldwide into believing their messages were fully private. Meta can not be trusted.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Misleading – X Chat offers e2e encryption but lacks forward secrecy: key compromise exposes all past messages. Private keys are controlled by X, protected only by a 4-digit PIN. Metadata is collected. Signal provides forward secrecy, device-only keys, and minimal metadata. help.x.com/en/using-x/abo… github.com/trailofbits/pu…
