maybe Zaki’s most admirable quality is that he has time for every one - from your favorite L1 founder, to the random newb plebeian in his dms asking for a technical explanation. his patience and belief in people’s abilities even when they may not yet believe in themselves is…
dear cosmos,
please no more perp dexes.
study akash. study helium. study farcaster. study argus. study noble.
we have the most customizable dev friendly stack in the universe.
literally anything but another perp dex.
love,

there are many unsung heroes in Cosmos
at the very top of the list is
@valardragon
Dev is widely considered to be the most technically gifted and kindest developer in our ecosystem

This bull market, Cosmos will have traded
Luna / Terra
for
dYdX, Celestia, Noble, Anoma, Neutron, Penumbra, Berachain, Fairblock, Quasar, Union…
and you’re short, Anon? NGMI
DeFi on Cosmos via Osmosis / Keplr Mobile is such a pleasant experience compared to MM, I really don’t know where to begin… but let’s start with these APRs…
Galileo, and a handful of other VCs, did not write off Cosmos
We doubled down when it was non-consensus
And we’re not going anywhere 😁
If you have any idea - hmu - Let’s bring it to life!
⚛️
Fun to suddenly get inbound on how to find early stage Cosmos deals. Unfortunately there aren’t that many because VCs wrote it off all last year. Expect things will pick up in January.
Time to take back YOUR data…
Anna is absolutely brilliant and
@withvana
is putting power back into the hands of the people.
so excited about the launch of
@rdatadao
This team has been shipping relentlessly over the past 6 months. Onomy has built a platform, including a non-custodial mobile wallet, to provide best-in-class UX/UI to tackle decentralized Forex in a cross-chain world. Bullish. 🚀
1/ We're thrilled to announce that we've closed a $10M round, getting Onomy closer to its goals of converging DeFi & Forex while rearchitecting the Web3 user experience.
CoFi from
@informalinc
is the most interesting idea in "DeFi" right now and it's not even close.
Most of defi is a reimplementation of existing financial system on crypto rails.
CoFi is a reimagination of what efficient debt clearing could be using tools only now available.
My telegram group chats are full of teams of builders completely undistracted by this clown show and collaborating relentlessly towards building a better future. Really humbling to witness 🫡
I’ve lost count of the times this man has saved y’all’s bags over the past two years.
Folks in Cosmos continue to counter trade him as if he wasn’t the most benevolently aligned person in the ecosystem.
You truly don’t deserve him.
He’s a master chef. Just let him cook.
Literally every crypto podcast for the last three years ends up with the same conclusions which is that cosmos was right all along and Cosmos / Celestia is the optimal architecture for blockchains
do not @ me
NEW POD with
@LoganJastremski
This is a great chat about the "high throughput era of blockchains".
I first met Logan two years ago when he was running around with a backpack recording technical podcasts and shouting about Solana when no one wanted to listen.
He's turned that…
Crypto exchange Kraken is reportedly in discussions with blockchain infrastructure firm as it considers who to partner with to launch its own Layer 2 network.
As a community, we should come together and support
@sreeramkannan
in pooling capital to commission Morgan Freeman to narrate the
@eigenlayer
white paper.
Every IBC connected chain should have a verified badge on their landing page.
The badge signals interoperability with a +$10B (🚀) ecosystem.
Badge of honor.
If you are building with / innovating on the cosmos tech stack, please reach out to us. There are plenty of allocators with dry powder eager to fund killer teams with novel ideas.

Cosmos founders & devs struggle to get themselves paid a stable salary while Ethereum startups that do basically the same thing are absolutely swimming in VC cash. I'm very jealous
A lot of people have been asking me about Decentralized AI lately
It is a very complex and nuanced topic but the intersection of these emergent technologies is extremely powerful
I thought I’d put together this helpful explainer to demystify things a bit…
the way i see it, the success of cosmos depends on
@noble_xyz
and it’s ability to onboard new users.
keplr is fine as an asset dashboard, but the team should be focused on bringing to life a wechat style superapp for IBC connected chains.
update 4, introduced nearly everyone who reached out & responded with their desired role. only ~60 intros all-in-all, but took a fair bit of coordination. a few asks I'm still having trouble filling:
- Design/branding
- Content production
- Cybersecurity
- Entry-level engineer
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
Couldn’t be more thrilled to have led this one.
Security is the most critical tenet of the Internet Financial System.
In order to bring $500T on-chain, users, both retail and institutional alike, need to be sure that their funds are SAFU.
Range, using their advanced ML…

Theta Upgrade (Scheduled for Mar 31, 2022) is going to be absolute 🔥
Cosmos Theta Upgrade will *potentially* enable:
1. Meta-transactions
2. NFT modules
3. Interchain accounts
4. Liquid staking
5. CosmWASM instance on the Hub
6. Upgrades to Gravity Bridge
The Future of the Cosmos Hub
We need new stewards with fresh perspectives. But most importantly, we need doers. The Hub will atrophy if we aren't open to evolution.
Thanks to
@PossibltyResult
for articulating these thoughts.
Looking forward to community feedback!…
The success of the Cosmos Ecosystem is NOT path dependent on ATOM...
But the success of ATOM is dependent on the ability to provide and capture value within the Cosmos ecosystem...
The problem is ATOM bag-holders seem to hate themselves... they've repeatedly proved they cant…
me thinks that what people really mean by “cosmos UX is awful”
is
“cosmos UIs are awful”
the middleware and APIs for a smooth experience are live. now time for the front end
This is a Top 5 game changer for cosmos in 2023
Noble is now the Gateway to Cosmos™️
When Coinbase finally embraces the Internet of Blockchains, and our front ends improve (
