Very excited to see this new effort from Stripe, Visa, Coinbase, Mastercard, Amex, Blackrock, and many others to build a new open stablecoin that shares economics back to users and distributors. OpenUSD will be natively issued on Tempo on day 1!

Some news: I’ve heard from three sources that CBS News dismissed the #2 producer on the CBS Evening News, Javier Guzman, after the show tonight. Unclear what the rationale was, but led to confusion in the newsroom… and it’s only week 1 of the show.

I don't know how long Hank Green has been using AI but the lack of self awareness was there from day 1 he has always been extremely susceptible to reality tunnels wherein he disregards entire bodies of argument because he's already picked the Smart Guy Answer

Bitcoin hopium. Kind of what been expecting. Day 56 (of 60) and NOW Week 24! Both Daily and Weekly Cycles at turning points, maybe days now. 1. Ending phases can be painful, we dont know how deep. 2. Didn't expect this type of blood on ALT's. Yep, I've taken good hit on SOL.

Day 5 of Paul Graham rewriting what people actually say into gay fanfiction and declaring said fanfiction to be the dumbest thing he has ever seen. PG is gone, guys. Remember him as he was in the good times, not selling out American workers and belittling their religion. RIP.

Meta is back in the game! It's been fun to test out Muse Spark. Beyond benchmarks, it's actually a good day to day model... surprisingly good at technical problems and making arcade games. Never bet against @alexandr_wang @natfriedman @danielgross

Tempo Mainnet is live. Alongside it, we’re introducing the Machine Payments Protocol (@mpp) alongside Stripe (with extensions by Visa for cards and Lightspark for Bitcoin). Proud of the team for getting mainnet live so quickly, and excited to see what you build!

Collaborating with Josh and the team at Thrive has always been a joy for us at Paradigm. But working with them as an investor in Tempo has given new appreciation for just how long-term and partnership-oriented they are. Congrats!

Tempo testnet is now open to anyone. It's been a pleasure working with great design partners to shape the chain: from teams moving billions across borders, to banks testing tokenized deposits, to AI companies exploring agentic flows. Come check it out!
