We are doing the final tweaks and fixed to the Ignition founder collection to be airdropped ASAP.

I'm hosting a dinner next month in Boston for scientists and engineers interested in safely increasing human intelligence. I'm interested in both treating cognitive impairment and helping healthy people improve their cognitive abilities. Could we develop treatments that help people learn faster, reason better, and solve harder problems? I'm especially interested in approaches that could work in adults. There's a lot we don't know, including what's possible and what would be safe. I'd like to bring together people across neuroscience, genetics, drug development, and computational biology/ML to discuss promising research and what it would take to turn it into useful treatments. I'm also interested in backing the right founding team if one comes together. If you're working in this area or have relevant expertise, please apply at the link below. Happy to cover travel if needed. Or if you can't make it to Boston, let us know - I may host one virtually for those who can't attend in person.

I'm passionate about accelerating science and tech to help solve some of the biggest challenges in the world. To further this, I'm planning to sell about 2% of my Coinbase holdings over the next year to fund scientific research and companies like @newlimit + @researchhub

🧪 Just finished a personal passion project for @ResearchHub — Something I made because I believe open science will accelerate science, thus accelerating humanity and benefiting all.🌎 "The future is not guaranteed, It is built by us." $RSC is now LIVE on @coinbase Let's build together. 🟦

If it's isn't obvious already, it is the end of papers as a measure of productivity, expertise or accomplishment. The odds of publishing in "glam" conferences & journals also very quickly approaches random & the time for gate keeping review increasing exponentially. 1/

Congratulations to @brian_armstrong and @joycesticks’ @ResearchHub on crossing $1.00 / token ($RSC). Big milestone in advancing the pace of open science and the incentive for all to contribute. 🧬 📈

This is the future we shall bring into being

I'm requesting all scientists in academia especially to seriously consider, discuss & test alternative approaches instead of shoving our heads deep in the ancient sands desperately clinging on to the old system. 4/

Here we go again! The WSJ is working on a story blaming Coinbase and me personally for the CLARITY Act not passing. The Journal has repeatedly been hostile to CLARITY in its reporting, regurgitating bank lobby talking points, while I’ve spent years pushing for crypto legislation, but that’s not stopping them from trying to reverse the blame. The boring TLDR: in January I opposed a draft of the bill going into a committee vote, because it needed a lot of work on DeFi, tokenization, CFTC authority, and stablecoin rewards. At the time, the bill had major issues that would have harmed crypto. Support was fractured, and it wasn’t passable. We worked with a number of parties who improved the bill and made it passable. All four of the items I called out were fixed in the draft that then went through the committee about four months later. I'm proud to have done it, and would do it again, because it helped create a better bill. One step of many along the way. The final draft of CLARITY that went to the Senate was great, and I strongly supported it. I'll continue showing up for our customers and pushing for clear rules that treat crypto fairly, even if those who feel threatened by crypto try to plant false stories. It's a shame that the WSJ takes direction from bank lobbyists instead of reporting the truth, but luckily, people are smart enough to see through it these days, and it backfires on them every time.

Bad day to be a Clarity Act doomer.

🚨NEW: The Clarity Act has failed to advance in the Senate after falling short of the 60 votes needed to invoke cloture. It did not even secure 50 votes.
