Don’t make your users figure out the difference between n different addresses
fintech and crypto-native apps typically integrate embedded wallets and third-party deposit addresses side-by-side this leads to user confusion (why do i have two addresses?) and integration overhead (how do i reconcile deposits from addr A with addr B?) we solved this :)

Nik is a great investor and also a wonderful person & friend. Every founder should be excited to partner with him!!
I took on a new role as an Investment Partner at @usv earlier this year. Shared some thoughts on why and what's ahead:

Some of the coolest privy use cases coming down the pipes are b2b (like ramps here)…. Wallets are for companies too!
1/ Today, @tryramp launched Stablecoin Accounts powered by Privy. Businesses can hold digital dollars, earn up to 3.25% rewards on eligible balances, and pay vendors globally, all from Ramp. Behind every Stablecoin Account is enterprise wallet infrastructure built by Privy.

This is gonna be huge
Today, the Pearl Protocol relies on INT-based matrix multiplication, which requires model quantization. To eliminate this overhead, we are developing our next-generation Proof of Useful Work to natively support floating-point computations. Launching soon, the initial release will support FP8, with FP4 to follow.

My favorite part of working at @privy_io is the opportunity to collaborate with best-in-class teams across the industry. Excited to cook this up with @jito
1/ Today, every @solana transaction through Privy's TEE wallets is routed through FullSend, the transaction landing service built with Jito. That means faster transaction submission and reliable transaction landing, built into Privy by default.

We’re doing some really fun latency work at @privy_io
1/ Privy now has reduced latency across all chains. Two improvements are live today: ✔️ All wallet operations are 30-45ms faster. ✔️ For @Solana trading apps, a new swap API delivers end-to-end latency under 200ms. Here's what we shipped 👇

📣 We just raised our $45M Series B from @TCVTech and @firstharmonic, with participation from @BainCapVC, @firstround, and @AlkeonCapital. Sales is the most expensive function in most companies — and one of the hardest. Hundreds of accounts, different context, different stakeholders, different dynamics, and a different path to close. No one can do that perfectly. Critical things get missed. So we gave every account its own AI agent — working 24/7, maintaining full context, progressing it through the funnel, and guiding reps and leaders on what to do next. The greatest privilege has been building alongside companies like @Samsara @tryramp @ironclad_inc and @attentiveHQ — enterprises with thousands of sellers who are already living in the future. There are only two unbounded upside problems out there: building and selling. Every company sells. and @useactively is building the system they'll all run on. We’re excited to pull every revenue team into the future we know is inevitable.

Developers! In addition to allowing users to earn rewards on your app, make it easy for them to swap between tokens too.
1/ Today, Privy enables swaps directly in our wallet infrastructure. Move between assets with a single API call, without needing to manage the complexities of routing, calldata, or execution logic. Powered by @Uniswap APIs to make swaps seamless for both devs and end users.

I’m still convinced that a ton of the volume from markets that replicate more liquid trad markets came from employees skirting compliance rules

💯 it’s not worth hanging out with people waiting for the market to fix their problems
Proximity has a disproportionate effect on perception. Was catching up with one of our SF based eco founders who is building a suite of AI products in the data labelling/adtech space with a bunch of inbound from large corps + startups. Their tech works, is generating real results for companies, and the team has lots of runway, but he was worried that they aren't doing enough (especially because of how fast everything around them is moving in SF/AI). Meanwhile there's infinite crypto companies folding or just absolutely coasting because the market doesn't like our coins anymore. tl;dr is - your environment dictates your behaviour. I'd rather have the dude tweaking out over not grinding hard enough in SF than the dude posted up waiting for the bull market in Dubai any day of the week.

We’re hiring! 👋🏻
To the 100,000 startup founders killed by Claude this week can like 1% of you please come to crypto. We are building the Internet Financial System and need more founders / engineers. Best opportunity to competition ratio in the world if you can put up with the industry.
