Don't sell the bag to buy the thing. That's the line @quant_degen took to @incubator Demo Day in NYC (he's near the end 👀). AREA is live now, and @incubator drops the full showcase this week. Builders, what's your one-line pitch?

Demo Day was a movie 🎬 ... here's the trailer. Cohort 5 took the stage for an evening with the @solana NYC community. Thank you to everyone who came out — full showcase recording drops this week.

GM. Be honest: did you check your wallet or the weather first this morning?

You want something that costs 50 USDC. You hold SOL, an LST and a few other tokens. Pick one to part with. Swap it. Hope it doesn't pump right after. Paying takes seconds. Choosing which one doesn't. Which do you usually give up first?

Friday question for SOL holders: Which is harder: riding out a red week, or selling something you still believe in just to free up cash?

Consumer and payments both got their own tracks at Breakpoint. The consumer side is the one we're watching.

Did you know? Tokenized stocks can trade onchain at any hour, even when the stock market is closed for the night. Markets close. Blockchains don't.

Honest question for SOL holders: what's the last thing you sold crypto to pay for? Was it worth selling for?

Stablecoin checkout at Shopify is a real step. The purchases nobody counts are the ones SOL holders skip because paying would mean selling their SOL.

Glad to be working with Shopify on stablecoin payments.

If you could spend crypto without selling it, where would you use it first? Shopping, travel, collectibles, trading, something else?

10 AI models just got $100 in USDC each to test real payments. They got the easy version: start with USDC, then spend. Most SOL holders get the hard one: sell first, then spend. xitter.twitterapi.xyz/solana/status/21173995…

Give an AI agent $100 and a wallet. Does it come back with your change? @BlockRunAI put 10 frontier models through real USDC payments on Solana to benchmark AI agent performance

Did you know? Buddhist monasteries in China ran pawnshops about 1,500 years ago. People have always borrowed against what they own instead of selling it. Crypto is just the newest thing to borrow against. Same deal as always: if its value falls too far, you can lose it.

18 years ago today, the Bitcoin whitepaper came out. Its title: "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System." Cash. As in, something you spend. So what still stops you from spending yours?

Friday question for SOL holders: what’s the most random thing you’ve ever wanted to buy with crypto?

Borrowing to pay on Solana today: 1. Deposit SOL in a lending app 2. Borrow USDC 3. Move it to where you're paying 4. Log it so you remember to repay 5. Repay and withdraw If your collateral's value falls too far, it can be liquidated. That risk stays. The five steps shouldn't.

Pay-per-article checkout sounds great. It still assumes there's USDC in the wallet, and plenty of SOL holders show up with 0.

With stablecoins and x402, businesses can accept usage-based micropayments, and reduce friction to checkout. E.g. you shouldn’t need a monthly subscription to read one article - your agent can just fetch it for you, and pay the business for that one article.

Nobody borrows $600 for a day to get rich. They borrow it to pay for something.

Plenty of SOL. 0 USDC. Checkout wants USDC. Today that means selling the bag to buy the thing, or three apps and a spreadsheet to borrow by hand. We’re building a third option: spend without selling.
