NASDAQ of 2026 cannot be the one where someone can frontrun your txs

L2s just cannot do this

Maybe, you need a chain with non-colocated validator set run on consumer grade hardware

Oh, and the chain still has to be fast

Logan Jastremski of Frictionless Capital says if Base and Robinhood Chain become the next capital markets, they start to look like the New York Stock Exchange. People co-locate next to the venue and start playing latency games.

"I think purely from a political standpoint, people will not really opt into that system."

You really do have to build a credibly neutral system, "just to be the backbone of global finance."

Onchain Social has never been tried out in its true spirit

Lens coming to Monad where:

- it is full decentralised, not sufficiently decentralised

- anyone can build a client (we will help. reply/DM me if you want to build one)

- customisable feed. you decide what you see

Today, social media is polarising because extreme news gets attention

We hope to break this cycle by enabling a truly decentralised social graph

Lens and Farcaster users will be able to sign in with their existing accounts

Onchain Social will happen on Monad
Monad @monad 2d
Lens (@LC) is coming to Monad

Rebuilt from the ground up as a fully onchain social graph:
• You own your account and connections
• Anyone can build a client
• You decide what your feed shows

Lens and Farcaster users can sign in with existing accounts

My KOL

how did we go from Andreas to Ansem?

A man spent years teaching people about Bitcoin, but when he admitted he wasn't rich from it, one of Bitcoin's biggest figures mocked him. What happened next made him a millionaire.

> Andreas Antonopoulos had been educating people about Bitcoin since 2012.

> He wrote books, gave hundreds of talks and helped thousands of people understand Bitcoin.

> But there was one thing he didn't have, a massive Bitcoin fortune.

> In December 2017, Roger Ver, popularly known as Bitcoin Jesus, questioned why Andreas hadn't become rich from Bitcoin despite being an early advocate.

> Andreas replied that he had actually bought Bitcoin early.

> But in 2013, he sold his holdings to pay rent and support his family.

> He had spent years working on Bitcoin without a steady income and couldn't afford to keep holding.

> That response changed everything.

> Bitcoin supporters began sharing his donation address, encouraging people who had benefited from his work to give something back.

> Within three days, hundreds of donations had poured in.

> One person sent 79 bitcoin:native, while another donation was worth $1.2 MILLION at the time.

> By December 8, Andreas had received approximately 102 bitcoin:native worth $1.6 MILLION at the time.

> At today's Bitcoin price, those 102 bitcoin:native would be worth approximately $7.5 MILLION.

> Andreas was so overwhelmed that he described reading the messages with tears in his eyes.

> He had spent years helping people discover Bitcoin and when the community found out he wasn't wealthy, they sent him a fortune.
