Today we raised $145m to fund bootstrappers here on Twitter! Get up to $3m in non-dilutive capital overnight from @FounderpathHQ Figured I'd prove it by wiring a bunch of you today. Tag the bootstrapped SaaS founder you admire most below... ❤️My favorites: 🧵A thread 👇

You are smarter than this Ro. Imagine if Bernie had taxed @elonmusk 100% on his PayPal capital gains. We would have no @Tesla or @SpaceX - none of those jobs or GDP. Who do you think allocated the capital better for society? He will already pay $100 B in taxes - more than any human ever. I hope he donates some to kids via @TrumpAccounts to make every kid a shareholder in 🇺🇸 & continues investing all his heart, soul & money for the benefit of America & all humanity! 🇺🇸🚀🤍

Today I'm publishing a new essay, Policy on the AI Exponential. AI is progressing extremely fast—much faster than the policy process was built to handle. The essay lays out where I think the technology is now, and the action needed to close the gap: darioamodei.com/post/policy-…

the new world order

We recently submitted a confidential S-1. We expect it to leak so we’re just announcing it. We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company. But it’s a complicated set of tradeoffs and this gives us the option to go public sooner if that ends up being best. This announcement is being made pursuant to Rule 135 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. Any offers, solicitations of offers to buy, or any sales of securities will be made in accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Solid breakfast chat with @NathanLatka! Dived deep into scaling @joinmatrixos and what the market is really demanding right now. High energy, killer insights, and zero fluff. 🔥

I believe this would be the largest Austin startup valuation ever 🚀

You haven't answered my question. It was a simple yes/no question. If you start a company that grows really fast and your stock becomes valuable as a result, is that hoarding wealth?

In 2020, I stumbled onto @NathanLatka's podcast. I was a broke student in Macedonia, coding my first startup, dreaming about maybe one day launching my own company. Latka's podcast completely rewired my brain. 🤯 For the first time ever, I heard real SaaS founders sharing real growth tactics, real revenue numbers that seemed impossible, hiring journeys, product launches... I was obsessed. Learning everything. Sending episodes to my co-founder, Stefan. From that moment, I had a dream: build something "worthy enough" to get featured on his show. ........ Fast forward to May 2026, Croatia. Got to meet Nathan face to face and hang out during the conference. A few years ago, being on Nathan's podcast felt like a fantasy. This week we shared the stage at @SaaStanak. Nathan, sometimes impact is invisible in real time. It only reveals itself when it walks up to shake your hand (and share a few dozen beers) 🍻

@NathanLatka nailed it

woah. $525 million?

You dont want a yacht. You dont want a big house. You dont want a super car, a $40,000 watch, or shoes you worry about getting dirty. You want free will. You want to wake up naturally on a Tuesday and you want to go to bed when you’re done having fun. You want to say yes to everything that excites you without having to request time off. You want to go to the the gym at noon, in absolutely no hurry. You want to spend 18 hours a day doing what you love. You want to be exactly where you desire being, always. You want to spend as much time with the people you care about as possible. You’re saying you wanna be rich? In what?

Friendly request for n= Hard to tell how serially we should take this without sample size data
