Awesome to have Deel launching stablecoin functionality exclusively on @tempo. Hold USD, earn rewards, spend via card. Starting in Argentina, then rest of LatAm, APAC, Middle East, and Africa to follow.
For the first time, contractors can get paid, hold, earn and spend, all inside the same app 💸 Introducing the Deel stablecoin wallet: hold earnings in DLUSD, earn rewards, spend anywhere, with no crypto exchange, separate accounts, or lost value in transit. Launching in Latin America today, with APAC, MENA, and Africa to follow. Coming soon for employees! 👀 Thanks to our partners at @Stablecoin, @privy_io, @tempo, @Morpho, and @Sentora for making this possible. Read more in the comments 👇

Building index-tracking assets on top of options instead of debt ethresear.ch/t/building-inde… What if the use options as the base of defi, instead of CDPs and liquidations? So instead of extreme price movements creating a sharp and global "you get liquidated" effect, instead your exposure to the index diverges quadratically from your preferred exposure in a smoother way? A key benefit is getting rid of the need for instant oracles, and instead making everything work on top of "slow oracles" (ie. the type that prediction markets use) This design has a significant downside - the need to do regular rebalancing - and an open question of whether and how this rebalancing can be made slippage-resistant enough. But it's worth considering and trying IMO. I would feel much safer holding algostables inside something like this, than in something that depends on an oracle that has to give real-time answers (and therefore could be tricked into giving wrong real-time answers with no time for human recourse).

As a result, when evaluating new neobanks as potential investments, we spend a lot of time digging into the go-to-market strategy, customer acquisition strategy, target demographic, whether the team has identified a unique/underserved customer segment, unit economics, etc.
Starting a neobank is now incredibly cheap. With crypto rails, most of the stack comes out of the box for free. That makes CAC the dominant cost driver, and the whole business becomes a game of acquiring customers for less than they’re worth. The way to keep CAC low is to specialize. Teams often start by focusing on a narrow segment, like farmers in one region, young people in high-inflation economies, or expats in Asia, and build features and marketing tailored precisely to them. The result is great for consumers: they get financial experiences designed for exactly who they are.

NEW: AI consultant reveals a client accidentally spent $500,000,000.00 in a single month after failing to set employee limits on Claude usage.

How to never hit your Claude usage limits ever again. I use Claude for 4 hours every single day, and I never hit my rate limits. These are the tips that nobody is talking about, and I wish I had known them a few months ago: (works especially well with the new Opus 4.8 model) • Spend more time planning - use Plan Mode in Claude Code (Shift Tab twice or /plan) • Start new chats instead of continuing long ones. Long chats BURN tokens due to context bloat. • Add this to your project instructions: "Be cognisant of token usage. Be concise and advise me when to start a new chat." • When switching chats, prompt: "Give me a prompt to restart this session without losing context." • Build an Instructions.MD Memory.MD folder so Claude never forgets your preferences • Escalate models: Haiku → Sonnet → Opus. Don't start at the top of the funnel (aka Opus) • Turn off Extended/Adaptive Thinking unless you specifically need it • Switch your Style to "Concise" (click " " on Homepage) • Take advantage of "Low" effort in Claude Code for most tasks • Use Claude Design tokens for visuals. Don't waste Claude Code tokens on anything visual These tips have genuinely changed the game for me. If you found them helpful, bookmark this post and copy this entire tweet into Claude so it can help you start saving money.

Excited to share our most powerful new Claude Code feature: dynamic workflows! Mention "workflow" in a prompt and Claude will dynamically create an orchestration plan that it strictly follows, allowing you to confidently trust that every stage happens in the right order even across 100s of agents.

Today we are releasing the Morpho Midnight Whitepaper. 2 years of work, starting from a blank page and refined through countless sessions where we challenged every assumption we had about how lending should work onchain.

More people should know about the Interfold. It's basically what I've been yelling at people to build with the MACI ideas ( ethresear.ch/t/minimal-anti-… ) for almost a decade, and now it exists, in a generalized form. The idea is: a privacy protocol optimized for things like voting (and other use cases eg. secret-ballot auctions). The mechanism generates a threshold encryption key, and people send in their votes onchain, using a ZKP to prove eligibility. An arbitrary computation on the votes gets run inside FHE, and then threshold-decrypted. From what I can tell (the docs are good docs.theinterfold.com/CRISP/… ), it gets pretty optimal security guarantees: * Voter anonymity can be made unconditional if eligibility is proven with ZK-SNARKs * Censorship resistance is guaranteed by ethereum (votes can be posted directly onchain, and there's a proof that all posted votes are taking into account) * The correctness of the outputted result can be ensured via ZK over FHE * Liveness and coercion resistance depend on M-of-N honesty; unavoidable given present-day technology The main limitation is that today "ZK over FHE" is only properly available for additive vote tallying, as it's too expensive for computations that involve multiplication or other more complicated manipulation at the moment. There's work in progress on slashing-based / optimistic computation for such situations. (And of course ideally in the long term we'd figure out obfuscation so you can get rid of the M-of-N committees😃)
The Interfold Launch Primer starts today. Over the next several weeks, we'll explain the system, the network, ciphernodes, and the path to participation. First: How Interfold works, from private inputs to collective outcomes.

v0.6 is live, our biggest release since launch! Since the first release in October 2024, we’ve been actively gathering feedback from vault operators and asset managers running 120 vaults across 18 chains to build the best possible product. This update delivers exactly that: better UX for LPs with the sync redeem feature, deeper security with NAV guardrails, greater manager autonomy, opt-in compliance features, and true strategy modularity. All shaped directly by the teams using Lagoon every day. Audited by @Nethermind and @trailofbits. (Claude Opus 4.7 ran a pre-audit too. It approves. 🤖) Huge thanks to everyone who contributed. Onward 🌊

As Mythos capable models proliferate over the next few years, all software that handles sensitive / important information will need to be formally verified In the long run, the only defense against AI black hats is formal verification

Creator of C , Bjarne Stroustrup: AI-generated code isn't ready — it generates more bugs, more bloat, more security holes, and is nearly impossible to validate "senior developers are already retiring rather than deal with it" The problem is that even a small prompt change can shift the entire codebase in unpredictable ways
