We closed our acquisition with @Stripe! Together we’re scaling digital dollars to businesses everywhere. Stablecoins aren't the future—they're *already* transforming how people move money. Couldn't be more excited to build this future together with the Stripe team.

there’s a feeling to doing real work vs getting the answer. to reading a book vs skimming cliffnotes. to fixing the thing vs hiring someone to do it.
our tools make it easier than ever to jump straight to the end.
it’s never been more important to pursue that feeling.

guessing the rise of marathons and other endurance activities is, in part, driven by this dynamic. there’s still no way to cheat your way to a sub 3h marathon (but drugs are coming).
so humans are increasingly pursuing this feeling through physical (vs mental) activities

in this subreddit people are sharing their experiences building software w claude, often for the first time.
more of these stories need to be shared. it’s genuinely uplifting and wholly positive.

imagine living in LA right now. it must feel helpless.
SF was bad. but we forced change. school board recall in 2022, chesa recall, lurie as mayor. now it feels like a different city.

shortly after we started bridge, terra-luna collapsed, ftx imploded, btc declined >75%, nfts crashed.
*all* of crypto was uninvestable
whatever this is, it’s not as bad as 2022. tokens are crashing but many of the core products are here to stay (stables, perps, lending, etc)

in fact, the collapse of many tokens is likely good long term. way too much short term ism in crypto generally.

context scaffolding is the new prompt engineering
the most challenging part of using llms is that you have to be so explicit and intentional about what they remember and/or repeat. most frustration with the tools really comes down to poor context management

just like the internet, AI will require changes to our economic infrastructure
we’ve built a bunch of tools to help teams navigate the transition and take advantage of what’s now possible
If there’s something you need that isn’t here, let us know

seems possible that college is going to become more important than ever.
as everyone uses ai, distinguishing true intellectual horse power will become more challenging. college will be an easy (albeit very flawed) signal

x402 democratizes access to structured clinical trial data.
The future is here and it’s agentic.

This is the beauty of open agentic commerce.
YESTERDAY, somebody built an API for structured clinical trial data for $0.001.
Today, I was interested in learning more about a new LDL gene therapy treatment, so I told my agent to investigate.
It searched for and found this new API to get all the raw data, and built me this dashboard. I never configured an MCP, added a skill, or gave it an API key.

claude code but its free and you have to watch ads while it thinks
14y old me would have gladly watched ads until my eyes fell out to save 10s of dollars

we've spent the past year combining Bridge and Stripe into one flexible platform that powers whatever your global customers need.
Meow is a great example:
✅ Issue fiat and stable corporate cards
✅ Send / receive stables seamlessly
✅ US and global virtual accounts
✅ Cross border payments
and so much more
