Building @privy_io and bringing @stripe onchain

Stripe is acquiring Privy. 🤯💛!! These last 3 years have been my absolute best, building alongside THE #1 team, and supporting 1,000+ customers as they've transformed their markets with crypto. I couldn't imagine a better partner to multiply Privy's impact. Let's get it 🦾🦾
1/ Today, we're proud to announce that Stripe is acquiring Privy. We couldn’t be more excited. Privy will continue as an independent product – but now we’ll move faster, ship more, and serve you even better, so you can stay focused on your users.

Cards without FX markups are bullish
Stripe-issued stablecoin cards have 0% FX fees. Stripe establishes local card ranges with local fees, so when customers spend in their home market, there’s no FX markup or the typical 1% cross-border fee.

Sneakily HUGE Privy wallets can natively bridge/swap assets via simple API calls No more intermediate or chain-specific addresses 😤
1/ Every Friday, we ship to make building on Privy better. Today: funding a wallet can be as simple as sending assets directly to its address. Your users’ primary wallet addresses can now double as deposit addresses, with Privy handling the orchestration behind the scenes.

got to play IRL @cryptothegame_ this week with the @StripeCrypto team. unreal! if offsites could be nominated for Emmy awards, this would’ve won hands down ty to @DylanAbruscato, @jayhinz + @segall_max for making dreams come true (ps we are hiring!!!)
Yesterday we got the entire @StripeCrypto team together at the Stripe HQ and it was a MOVIE! With some serious help from @DylanAbruscato we organized an unofficial 4th szn of CTG “Stripe Island” If you like crypto rails, obsessing over customers, and good times, come join us!

acquisitions are like organ transplants if the cultural imprinting on the organ is strong enough it will indelibly impact the host

Stripe brought back the challenges and chaos of CTG for an IRL version at their onsite. So cool to see our weird little internet experiment keep finding new life

I just made an agent on my computer pay for an image capture and processing session on a connected hardware device that was authorized to provide this capability by another agent on another device. I accomplished all of this without any internet connections between these devices. The possibilities this opens up are endless, autonomous vehicles can coordinate with drones for route guidance, connect to sensors to receive weather updates, or coordinate with each other to exchange skills in a swarm. Productivity robots can talk to personal assistants to understand user preferences, or receive outage data from field technicians to perform repairs, all without the need for an active internet connection or expensive backhaul solutions. Useful intelligence has moved onto devices; autonomous systems are expanding from isolated machines into fleets; and connectivity continues to fragment across Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular, satellite, and specialized radios. Those networks extend reach, but none supplies the shared application contract required to decide who may act, what capability is available, which route should carry the request, how state converges after disconnection, and what evidence proves completion. Offline Protocol packages the missing contract as one integrated stack and abstracts multiple transports with automatic failover; OfflineID provides device-owned identity that peers can verify locally; Messaging Layer Security protects sessions; serverless discovery lets a device advertise, find, and invoke a capability without DNS or a cloud directory; reliable delivery adds acknowledgment, retry, deduplication, retention, and replay; and the shipped CRDT data layer synchronizes application state through compact deltas and deterministically merges concurrent offline edits. Our protocol has reached 350,000+ cumulative deployed device instances, with 11,500+ network clusters active in the trailing 30 days, and 12,000+ SDK package installs. Within a month of starting our commercial motion, we've already signed 4 LOIs, 2 paid pilots, 6 more in technical scoping, and have several enterprise level distribution partnerships in negotiations. I have historically been too quiet and not outspoken enough about our work, a VC recently told me I am too humble about our trajectory and technology, and so for once I want to really share how confident I feel about the progress we're making and the brand new paradigm of machine coordination our technology opens up.

Every Anuma account is a self-custodial wallet powered by @privy_io, and ZETA is moving to Solana, where Polymarket already trades through @JupiterExchange. Same chain, sub-second settlement. On-chain trading from AI chat is under exploration. zetachain.com/blog/bringing-…
