Rentahuman (@RentAHumanX) allows AI agents to communicate with and pay humans to do tasks in the real world. Their mission is to use AI to create new jobs and coordinate workers at global scale. The future will have more intelligence, more jobs, and more opportunities for people outside of the digital world. Congrats on the launch, @alexandertw33ts! ycombinator.com/launches/QXRโ€ฆ

Today Iโ€™m launching AI IQ โ€” frontier AI models, scored on the human IQ scale. Instead of endless leaderboard tables, AI IQ shows: โ€ข Where models land on the IQ bell curve โ€ข How frontier IQ is changing over time โ€ข How models compare on IQ and EQ โ€ข What intelligence costs in practice GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, Gemini 3.1, Grok 4.3, Kimi K2.6, Qwen3.6, DeepSeek V4, Muse Spark, and more. Link in the first reply. Curious which chart surprises you most.

Congrats to @sygaldry_tech on their $139M raise! Chad Rigetti founded Rigetti Computing in 2013, took it public in 2022, and is now backโ€”alongside cofounders Idalia Friedson and Michael Keiserโ€”with a new company asking one of AI's biggest questions: how do we power all these data centers? Sygaldry is building servers that combine quantum hardware and classical chips to run AI workloads faster than GPUs, reducing the cost and energy needed to run increasingly large models. fortune.com/2026/04/14/excluโ€ฆ

FirstMark backed Shopify before anyone bought anything online. Discord before anyone gamed with strangers. Airbnb before anyone turned their home into a hotel. Now they're betting privacy onchain is next. We raised $6M led by @FirstMarkCap to make private transactions the default. Joined by @dba_xyz & @robotventures. Investors who understand that privacy isnโ€™t a feature, it's the foundation.

We just raised a $20M seed round to build the largest bank in the world. Kontigo crossed $30M in annual revenue, $1B in payment volume, and 1M users in under 12 months, with a team of six engineers and one designer. We are the fastest-growing stablecoin neobank in the world. Any individual or business on earth can: - Earn 10% yield on their digital dollars. - Get a stablecoin card with bitcoin cashback. - Activate a USDT credit line. - Invest in tokenized U.S. stocks. - Open an international account for free. This is a real-world use case of crypto. No casinos, no jargon, just normal people who donโ€™t even know what USDC or USDT is. Weโ€™re, once and for all, democratizing access to basic finance and giving 4.8 billion people the ability to hold a stable currency (USDC) alongside a wealth creator (BTC). The equation is simple: they invest in BTC, they hold USDC, and they spend in local stablecoins. More than a thousand businesses and a million users are already doing this. They connect their local bank, card, or payment method and start moving funds globally, instantly, and without limits. No matter the corridor. U.S. โ†” LatAm, LatAm โ†” Asia, Asia โ†” Europe, U.S. โ†” Africa, Europe โ†” LatAm. Weโ€™ve them all. Just imagine how much faster Revolut wouldโ€™ve grown if they didnโ€™t have to get individual banking licenses in each of the 50 countries theyโ€™ve launched in. Thatโ€™s @kontigo_app You simply canโ€™t outcompete the fact that our backend, database, and infrastructure run on the freaking blockchain: 24/7, at a fraction of the cost, open, permissionless. Itโ€™s a whole new game, different incentives, and a new technological paradigm. Thanks to all the early supporters! Weโ€™re proud to partner with the best: @t_blom & @harjtaggar from @ycombinator ; @hthieblot & @FurqanR from @fdotinc ; @davefontenot from @hf0 ; @HoolieG from @cbventures & @jessepollak from @base ; Saurabh and Grace from DST ; also @GoodwaterCap @Soma_Capital @pioneer_fund @transposevc @alumniventures @m_franceschetti @EvanWeb3 @metavarce @davecyen Tom Brown, Oliver Jung, Ricardo Schรคfer, Andrej Henkler, Yi Shi, Philippe Teixeira.

We just raised $60 million for Blueprint. To bring my longevity protocol to you. Our society has made us unwellโ€ฆmetabolically, mentally, spiritually. Weโ€™re addicted. Social media, porn, nicotine, junk food, fast food, smartphones, streaming, energy drinks, and gambling. Each perfectly engineered to keep us in their grip. Years ago, I was owned by these systems. They wrecked me, and my health. I wish there had been someone in my life helping me break free. Blueprint will be that system. Collectively, we will claw our power back. Blueprint will take better care of people than they can themselves. Better than the healthcare system does. Better than our societal norms allow. We will be your home for health. Blueprint will help you feel clear-headed and vibrant. You will become more jacked and beautiful with our presence in your life. Thereโ€™s nothing better than feeling your best. Some of the worldโ€™s most powerful people are backing Blueprint. Talent are pivoting their careers to join our team. They rightly see that Blueprint is in the right place, at the right time, for the global emergence of the new macro trend of health, anti-aging and Donโ€™t Die. In this post Iโ€™ll cover: Whoโ€™s investing What Blueprint will be Whoโ€™s joining Open positions How to get early access The next era of human is here. [WHOโ€™S INVESTING] This remarkable group of people are Blueprint investors. They are backing the next great frontier: human longevity. Akshay Bd Alex Hormozi Amanda Cassatt Andrej Karpathy Ari Emanuel Balaji Srinivasan Bill Lee Brad Keywell Brian & Veronica Grazer Bryan Meehan Cameron Winklevoss Carter Reum Chris Hollod Dan Manges Dave Morin Don Wilson Drew Houston Emmett Shear Eric Demuth Fareed Adib Generational Family Office Jason Fried Jay Shetty Joe Gebbia Joe Lonsdale John Carmack Joshua Kushner Kamal Ravikant Karim Beguir Kevin Hartz Kim Kardashian Kyle Widrick Logan Paul Michael Cao Michael Kives Naval Ravikant NIV Olaf Carlson-Wee Paris Hilton Pippa Lamb Saquon Barkley Ken Katz Seth Bannon Shayne Coplan Steve Aoki Steven Bartlett Suna Said Tyler Winklevoss Winnie Liu Wojciech Zaremba [TEAM] Defeating death would be humanityโ€™s greatest accomplishment. Big things are happening right now in our small corner of the galaxy. We see the consequence of this moment and are working to positively influence the future of intelligent existence. We believe that product is philosophy and companies can influence the world. Join if you love to work insanely hard and also get eight hours of sleep. Joining our team as CEO is Gyre Renwick. He was previously President of Modern Health and before that an executive at Google Health and Lyft Healthcare. Gyre builds complex health systems into growth engines. In this next chapter, I am doubling down on Blueprint and Donโ€™t Die. Iโ€™m all in. Gyre will run the business and I will focus on vision, strategy, and birthing Donโ€™t Die into the world. Blueprint is the practical manifestation of Donโ€™t Die. They are the same thing. I will continue to juggle many full-time jobs: rejuvenation athlete, Blueprint vision, leading the Donโ€™t Die moral philosophy and ideology, building a global community, and content creation. Ultimately, both Blueprint & Donโ€™t Die ladder up to the same thing, answering the question: โ€˜what does humanity do as we give birth to super intelligence?โ€™. Kate Tolo (co-founder), Gyre, and I will be in lockstep building this mission together. Roles we are filling now: Chief Technology Officer Chief Product Officer Chief Medical Officer Chief Marketing Officer Engineers of all types See all open roles Refer your most talented friends. If you donโ€™t see a job fit, still email us. [BLUEPRINT VISION] Weโ€™re making my protocol accessible to everyone. To replicate everything including the measurements, protocols, therapies - and make it easy and accessible for others to do in a community. For your family and friends to do this too. Many think that the worldโ€™s most powerful people have their health figured out. The truth is, most everyone is floundering. Luxury concierge services often do little for wealthy people as the biggest gains are not in expensive therapies but daily habits. We will help you build life foundations, starting with the basics and graduating to advanced therapies. Our goal is to be more effective in helping you achieve your health goals than any health system or concierge in the world. Blueprint will build around: your preferences your budget your preexisting conditions your prior results your prescriptions your level of effort Itโ€™s health within context. I built Blueprint to solve my own problem. My body and mind were broken, and I didnโ€™t know who to trust to help me fix it. Everyone disagreed with everyone else. I found sanity in gathering a team of doctors and building a protocol based upon robust measurement and scientific evidence. Itโ€™s a methodical process that produces better outcomes and results in fewer mistakes and wasted time. After my team and I built a protocol for me, my friends and family asked if they could get access too.ย  Then their friends and family asked and I said yes again. The circle kept on expanding until we stumbled into Blueprint becoming a company. We will tell you to do less. Most good health can be achieved with very little effort. Itโ€™s the systems, infrastructure, knowledge, and piecing through the noise that is hard. Blueprint is Bryan Johnsonโ€™s protocol, for everyone. What this will practically mean: Blood draws Food delivery GLP-1s Rx prescriptions Free protocols Toxin testing At-home tests Skin care & hair care Nutrition & supplementation Advanced therapies And your AI health companion will make it simple. I like to call this my Autonomous Self. In the same way you put in an address and digital navigation tells you the best way to get there, Blueprint is navigation to vibrance. Our goal is to remove the thinking and hassle for you so that you can focus on building durable life habits and achieve the best health of your life. I love thinking about what the future will say about us. When I think from the perspective of those whoย exist in the year 2500, I think theyโ€™ll observe that the 2020s and 2030s was the time when humans figured out that they were the first generation who wouldnโ€™t die. Early access below. What an amazing opportunity. Letโ€™s do this together. Bryan

BIG Congrats to @robindavidji and the entire @liquifi_finance team! You have built a world-class product! Proud customer and investor! Can't think of a better partnership with @coinbase to bring token infrastructure to the world! ๐Ÿš€๐ŸŠ
๐Ÿš€ Big news: Liquifi has been acquired by @Coinbase! Four years ago, we set out to solve a simple problem: token management was broken. Today's announcement represents validation that infrastructure-first thinking can transform an entire industry. To our customers at @Uniswap, @Optimism, @ethena, @Zora, and dozens of other protocols: this is just the beginning. With Coinbase's resources behind us, we're building the institutional-grade token infrastructure the industry deserves. To our incredible team: we did it. From spreadsheets to Coinbase. What a journey. And, the next chapter is about to be written.
