the hardest part of running a small team now isn't shipping fast - it's keeping eng and product in sync without pinging each other constantly. so to help our team coordinate better, we created a dock that lives on your desktop and shows what Claude/codex/Pi sessions are live, what PRs shipped, and where code conflicts are forming. its called Slashtalk - cut the chatter & work faster - slashtalk.com

Really cool update by the friends at Towns. Allows you to open and manage perp positions on Hyperliquid through natural language. In other words you tell the bot what you want to do and it executes the trades. Tried it and it's really dope

ok here's the bull case for $TOWNS: Real revenue - over $35 million spent on the protocol Real fees - ~$3.5M in fees so far. Buy and burn. Real team - Same founder and a lot of the team from one of the largest social apps ever @houseparty. Team has been building for over 4 years. Real funding - ~$46 million from @a16zcrypto @cbventures @hiFramework @benchmark @echodotxyz and other angels. Real products - @townsapp works. Over 160k DAU and 425,000 Towns created. Real people starting real communities and making real money. @SendItTech also launching soon. The communication market is in the hundreds of billions of dollars. Maybe even trillions. Communication apps run the world. Towns capturing a small percentage of that market puts the value in the billions. More apps are being built on @TownsProtocol. Not just @townsapp. Fees from every app will be used to support $TOWNS programatically. On Discord, telegram, whataspp, etc. the value you create it owned by them. A decentralized protocol like this is the only way for users to be rewarded for their contributions. Build your community and apps on the only place it makes sense to. Towns.

We're excited to announce an additional $3.3M in funding, closed in April and led by @cbventures through @echodotxyz, along with additional strategic angels. Towns is proud to be the first investment opportunity that Coinbase Ventures provided to their Base Ecosystem Group on Echo.

Communication is the most valuable surface on the internet. Just look at Discord, Telegram, Signal, iMessage. Now itโ€™s onchain, ownable and powered by a token. $TOWNS is a step toward a tokenized messaging layer for the internet.
Introducing $TOWNS โ€“ the token that powers communication. Coming Q2 2025.

Early innings of something big. Onchain communication was always inevitable. Now itโ€™s just happening faster.
Excited to share our latest funding round, led by @a16zcrypto, with the addition of new investor @cbventures and continued support from @benchmark. The future of communication is onchain.

Towns just makes sense the more you think about it. If it captures just a small percentage of the messaging app market, the value is still billions. Communication isn't going anywhere and it needs to be owned and operated by its users. Towns. x.com/i/grok/share/wEGu6JQOpโ€ฆ

google is the worldโ€™s largest consumer software company. j.p. morgan is the worlds largest financial services institution. google is worth 3.3x more than j.p. morgan. yet everyone in crypto is building financial services and very few are building consumer products. why?

Towns isn't just another chat app. Towns run on @TownsProtocol, setting its decentralized foundation where communities have full ownership and control. With independent node operators, messages stay live and secure. No single point of failure and no dependence on a centralized platform.
