startup update we've joined @AntlerGlobal's 15th residency cohort with @minisendapp. over the past 9 months, we've been building stablecoin settlement infrastructure to help traders and freelancers move between chains and local payment rails while abstracting complexities in between. now we're extending that infrastructure to businesses through the Antler residency. it's going to be an exciting 10 weeks ahead,as always stay early! minisend.xyz
another big day tomorrow for @minisendapp honestly proud of this one!

just landed from a 10 hour flight, opened slack, and saw this. $2 billion in total transaction volume on @blockradarHQ i think about who this actually belongs to. every fintech that trusted us, every customer moving real money through us, and a team that keeps shipping while I'm in the air. grateful doesn't cover it. back to work 🙏

I've been down the rabbit hole, studying a lot of LLM fundamentals, and came across something interesting Did you know that non-English text can cost more in AI token usage than English text? This is because of tokenization, the process of converting text into tokens that AI models can understand. Most popular tokenizers are heavily optimized for English, meaning words in languages like Swahili, Arabic, or Chinese may be split into more tokens than equivalent English text. More tokens = higher API costs. So, in some cases, asking an AI a question in Swahili could cost more than asking the same question in English. Language inequality exists even in AI pricing 😂

You can now trade the Nigerian naira from a stablecoin wallet. No Nigerian bank account required. Introducing @numoforex (ALL18), a 24/7 futures exchange for emerging market currencies, starting with the naira. Foreign traders can go long naira to earn the difference between Nigerian and US interest rates. Nigerian businesses that need dollars can lock in today’s exchange rate. Numo matches those two sides and already has over $700K in open interest. Congratulations on the launch, @robertleifke!
