📷 Two New Ways to Earn money on @lofty_ai : Property Offer Rewards Maker Rebates We're launching a program to deepen liquidity and tighten spreads on Lofty's order books, so buying and selling is smoother and fairer for everyone. The idea is simple: have open limit orders, and get paid USDC straight to your wallet every hour. 📷 Property Offer Rewards, earn while your orders rest: Place a buy or sell limit order near the midpoint on a rewarded property. Every hour, that property's daily USDC pool is split among everyone providing qualifying liquidity, paid straight to your Lofty wallet, hourly. Your share of rewards grows the closer your order sits to the midpoint and the more size you provide. A property only pays out when there's liquidity on both sides of the book, so two-sided makers earn the most. 📷 Maker Rebates, earn when your order fills When your resting limit order actually gets filled, we refund 50% of the trading fee you paid on that fill in USDC, instantly, no claim step. So you earn hourly while your order rests and get a fee rebate when it fills. 📷 Live now on 2 properties: 2221 E Chase St — Baltimore, MD • Daily reward pool: $10 USDC • Eligible spread: within $2 of the midpoint • Min order size: 2 shares 2094 W 34th Place — Cleveland, OH • Daily reward pool: $20 USDC • Eligible spread: within $2 of the midpoint • Min order size: 4 shares More properties rolling out soon. 📷 How to start? Open a rewarded property (look for the Rewards badge) Place a limit order within the eligible spread, at least the min size Earn hourly while it rests, plus a 50% fee rebate when it fills Track your earnings and manage your eligible orders, view reward payouts and maker rebates anytime under Account → Property Offer Rewards.

Two contradictory things can be true at the same time. Crypto is obviously filled with fraud and scams. At the same time, it’s also obviously a useful and important technology.

Wake up, see a bunch of suspicious transactions. Spend half the day investigating and blocking scammers. How's your Friday going...?

Finally!!

If you haven't used the new experimental feature in codex /goal, I highly recommend checking it out. We've always thought about migrating architecture and even frameworks over at @lofty_ai. Some of the decisions we've made at the start are less than optimal in hindsight. But the math never made sense. It would have taken the entire team working on nothing but a migration and take a month to do and maybe that's even optimistic. Just asked gpt 5.5 xhigh in codex last night using the /goal command to do the entire migration. It ran for over 5 hours and 20 mins and close to 1 shot the entire migration. Other than a few small details that needed fixing, the new app appears to be working and stable. This is making us re-evaluate a lot of priorities internally as the ROI math needs to be recalculated for so many things we've previously made a decision to not pursue for now.

Because it’s probably personality. The same people that tend to become millionaires and billionaires are the same people that are highly competitive, high ego, and low tolerance for bullshit. They can’t help it and are just being themselves.

At @lofty_ai, we usually start testing new ideas using a manual process. It helps us move quickly and figure out if an idea actually resonates with users or not. Sometimes they do, but because of other priorities, we end up operating that manual process for far longer than we'd like. Introducing our new off-ramp and withdrawal flow. Users can now click 2 buttons and complete withdrawals for their rent balance or account balance to their connected bank accounts. There is also built in tracking to tell you the status of your withdrawals. Standard off-ramps are also free now (3-5 business days) through ACH while the express option (1 business day) costs 2%, down to 1% if withdrawing above $10,000. This has been a big bottle neck for the platform as users had to fill out a form manually and learn how to operate a crypto wallet to send funds to us manually. According to our support metrics, 75% of all customer support requests were regarding how to perform this step properly or getting an update on the status of their withdrawal. No more! Enjoy the new flow and happy trading!

i run a small store that designs and sells custom mechanical keyboards over at @keebsforall . It started as a hobby and now I own over 10 unique boards. There is so much typing in my work, emails, slack, research, coding, and lately a lot of AI prompting. I originally used one of those low profile apple keyboards, but my wrists started killing me. carpal tunnel in both hands, which is why I started looking into better keyboard options. I haven't launched a new product on the store since last year, so this one is special. We just dropped a pre-order for the Liberty Walk x Original Konbini keyboard. If you know the LBWK name from cars, this is their first ever mechanical keyboard collab. It's fully aluminium with kailh tactile switches, per-key RGB, and each unit is laser-numbered with an authentication card. the whole design is a love letter to JDM culture. If you're into cars and keyboards, this is the crossover you didn't know you needed. only 25 units. pre-order price is $150 (goes to $165 once they're in stock). Ships in about a month. keebsforall.com/products/pre…

I'm a big elder scrolls fan and I just found this channel on Youtube that uses AI to make live action elder scrolls videos on various lore topics. They're usually around 10 minutes long and voiced as well. It's not perfect, but honestly the quality was pretty shockingly good. At this point, people should see the writings on the wall right? Like within 5 years, the models should be good enough to deliver full blown movies that are block buster quality. Whether the movies will be good or not will purely depend on how good a creator is at story telling/directing/prompting the models. I would imagine Hollywood would be pretty panicked about this, but I'm not really seeing much discourse around it yet. Take a look for yourself. Btw, this is probably what happens to Skyrim if you side with the Stormcloaks. youtube.com/watch?v=LBTh9-zH…

Adding @lofty_ai to the RWA section alone should move the needle in that category a bit :)

Our team has been very excited about this update and we hope you like it too! All EVM users can now come to @alphaarcade and just start using the product. Everything else is handled for you underneath the hood. An app should just be an app that's available to everyone to use. Try it out today and let us know how your experience was. EVM distribution with AVM performance.

This is the way. Way to dogfood your own products @marcvl!

this is good, actually. being a founder should’ve never become as high status as it is. it’s supposed to be a weird, slightly bad decision you keep making anyway.

Our new major UI update is live on @lofty_ai now! We’ve wanted to do this for some time now and I’m glad we finally got this rolled out. Operating a rental property is like running a small business. Who you decide to hire as an owner matters as much if not more than what you decide to buy. Our data over the performance of 150 properties suggests this heavily.

Crazy how fast things are moving. One of the next hires I wanted to make at @lofty_ai was a designer, who can also do some coding. I wanted to align the design on the app to be more consistent. It's currently a patchwork of things that look similar, but isn't consistent as we prioritized shipping speed. This was maybe 2 months ago... Not sure if it's necessary anymore.

Another $USDC drop just went to all $ALPHA holders from recent trading fees! 🥵 The other half of trading fees bought & burned 129,451 $ALPHA 🔥 Burn txn: allo.info/tx/RR7BSTDFCKYPJOZ…

People have always asked me to share more case studies around @lofty_ai and what users have done on the platform to date. The best part is when one of your long time users does it on their own! DM me if you want to read the entire PDF they shared. It's quite detailed and breaks down their strategy, fees, the pros and cons of what they did. Overhauling real estate transactions have a lot of secondary order effects that we haven't even begun to see yet, but it's clear that users are experimenting with things. Swing trading a physical address has never been possible or practical even at the height of real estate bubbles, but it's a thing you can do now if you want. Some people are even pulling off large profitable trades today.

Quality of life update for @lofty_ai users before we have a native mobile app, which will come eventually. In the meantime, your mobile browser experience should be much better now!

Real estate pricing is totally broken. One of the largest asset classes in the world… but also one of the least liquid. That contradiction has gone mostly unquestioned. 🧵👇
