@iroh_n0 is literally re-writing the internet - proud to back such an ambitious project at @plcapitalDial Keys, not IPs. After 4 years and more than 65 versions, iroh 1.0 is here to give you the direct connections you deserve. We can’t wait to see what you will build! iroh.computer/blog/v1 - PL Capital reposted
We backed the team behind @iroh_n0 because the internet shouldn't be a tangle of brittle IPs and middleboxes. Dial a key, get a secure, direct connection anywhere, over anything. After 4 years of building in the open, 1.0 is here. The future of connectivity is peer-to-peer, andDial Keys, not IPs.

We're excited about the US CLARITY Act. We think all YC companies will use crypto technology, like stablecoins, before long. Not just crypto startups, not just fintech startups, but every company. Here's why this law is such a big deal 🧵The Clarity Act passed committee. The floor is next. We did not come this far to quit at the 5 yard line. 
What if your brain could tell you what you’re feeling before you could put it into words? Tom Oxley (@tomoxl), co-founder and CEO of @synchroninc, on the possibility that future BCIs could help us better understand our own emotional states. Full conversation on the @juanbenet

What if we could redesign AI to mirror biology’s efficiency? @TRReardon & the @flourishailabs team are exploring exactly that. By mapping neural connections in the human brain, they aim to develop biology-inspired AI that is radically more energy-efficient. - PL Capital reposted
Science CEO @maxhodak_ joined @semafor Tech Editor @ReedAlbergotti on stage at First Principles for a wide-ranging conversation on longevity, Science's PRIMA retinal prosthesis and Vessel organ perfusion programs, and the philosophy of identity and BCI.

We’re pleased to be part of the ecosystem supporting @Mastercard's Agent Pay for Machines. By partnering with Mastercard, t54 brings its trust layer to Agent Pay for Machines, helping make agent-led payments more secure, auditable, and accountable.
- With a $500M war chest at a $2.5B valuation, @flourishailabs is on a mission to crack the brain’s core algorithm and usher in an era of low-power general intelligence inspired by biology. If anyone can pull it off, it’s this team. Proud to be an early backer.

Great podcast episode, @juanbenet & @JacquesCarolan! 👏🎬 QQ: At min 1:15 you describe a 3 dimensional plot between invasiveness, functionality, & data precision - AI made a v0, but would love your thoughts on a domain map for charting opportunity spaces! youtu.be/YpqVcD6tc5U?si…
Made with AI - PL Capital repostedAwesome to hear how @sternhenri and the team at @privy_io are leveraging the platform and brand of @stripe post acquisition to accelerate the adoption of stablecoins and the achievement of their founding goal of allowing anyone to have more ownership and control over theirStablecoins are useless unless they solve actual business problems.
