With #AgenticAQUA your agent can convert USDT on @Liquid_BTC directly to Argentine pesos with no ID! 🇦🇷 Here's how it works: the agent creates a @JAN3com account by paying some Sats. That account is its identity. From there, it connects to @wapupay and settles directly in ARS.
I had a great time talking about @trydrip with @laurashin on the @Unchained_pod. @unchained_pod's free + premium podcasts and newsletters are also now available on @trydrip! Give your agent access to one of the best news sources in crypto. https://x.com/laurashin/status/2080012716983632195
Ahh evidently Mechanic and Guida worked at Start9, quite profitable marketing engine for nodes in a box
To every @Strike customer, thank you for your continued support. We work for you. I know some Bitcoiners hesitated to join Strike because they were worried about a potential relationship with Twenty One. I understood that, and honestly, it always hurt to see. Strike will remain independent, privat
Thank you to Start9 for patching the Block Slop consensus bug that is in the BIP 110 activation client, left unpatched by @dathon_ohm and @LukeDashjr

The simplest Bitcoin advice you’ll hear today. At @BTCMedellinConf, JAN3 Nation-State Advisor @chrisabaker kept it practical: buy Bitcoin, run a node, run a small miner, spend it, and replace it. Bitcoin adoption starts when people use it, secure it, and build around it. 🧱
Jack Mallers Steps Down From Twenty One After 91% Decline, Previously Questioned MicroStrategy’s BTC Strategy
I resigned voluntarily, and I’m not going anywhere. Strike has never been stronger. We’ve somehow continued growing through this bear market while remaining a profitable leader in Bitcoin financial services. If anything, this gives me more time to do what I love. I’m just getting started.
I have no information other than what is public, but my initial reaction from @jackmallers stepping down as CEO of $XXI is that this will end up being good for @Strike and XXI. I am the one of the largest shareholders of Strike and I am a big fan of @paoloardoino and the team at Tether. x.com/jackm
