@Disney's Q2 see them nudging out @netflix , whilst @wbd battles it out in the second division with @paramountco! Will be intriguing to see how the ad-based tiers fare in 2023 and beyond!

@Shopify $SHOP in a 🥜nutshell. Using @Gymshark as an example, Shop is an agnostic platform that enables merchants to sell anywhere (in-store, online....metaverse). @tobi @harleyf @leinwand

$SHOP will enable merchants to create stores within their Twitter accounts (linking seamlessly to their live inventory). Another great product launch from @Shopify, which is becoming a ubiquitous, agnostic e-commerce platform powering millions of merchants globally.

$ROKU $WMT join forces on interactive TV advertising. A small step, but a 👀at how freemium streaming could be in the future. Perhaps we'll see shoppable product placement mid-stream..... (i.e. pause Top Gun Maverick and buy the watch worn by Tom Cruise).

This is how a standard online payment works today. Highly complicated and up to 4% in fees taken by a bunch of intermediaries. In time, Web 3.0 solutions like the Lightning Network will completely shake this up. @lightning @Square @Strike @Shopify
