At the behest of someone way smarter than me, I have started a Substack. My first post was drafted after listening to the @Oprah + @AnthropicAI podcast. Read it or don't. 😶

"Working with Tempo allows Coastal to test and co-create the next generation of financial infrastructure. It’s not just about improving speed or efficiency — it’s about unlocking new capabilities for the broader ecosystem of fintech and embedded finance partners. Together, we’re rethinking what modern banking can deliver." - Brian Hamilton, President @ Coastal
Tempo’s testnet is live!
Any company can now build on a payments-first chain designed for instant settlement, predictable fees, and a stablecoin-native experience.
Tempo has been shaped with a wide group of partners validating real workloads including @AnthropicAI, @Coupang, @DeutscheBank, @DoorDash, @Lead_Bank, @mercury, @nubank, @OpenAI, @Revolut, @Shopify, @StanChart, and @Visa.
Since our announcement, @brexHQ, @Coastal, @crossriverbank, @deel, @faire_wholesale, @Figure, @GustoHQ , @Kalshi, @Klarna, @Mastercard, @Payoneer, @withpersona, @tryramp, and @UBS have also joined as design partners.
Dedicated payment lanes, stablecoin gas, deterministic finality, a built-in stable asset DEX, and programmable smart accounts are all live on testnet.
If you’re building or modernizing payment flows, you can start integrating and testing today.

Hi friends! We are excited to share a new project we've been working on with our friend @jackycoyne called Backed by Braid. Check out his video about it here: youtu.be/Nnc0bFOOBtw
tl;dr - we are giving away $1,000 a week to new projects for a _community stimulus project_

Is it me or does it seem unethical to make money being ethical / preaching ethics? #design #servicedesign #uxdesign #productdesign #money #socialmedia
I've been asked this question enough times to warrant a post.

Hey everyone, we're @braid_app and today we're excited to show you the app and share more about what we're building. We want to make it easier to share money, and to do that, we're building a new type of financial account called a group account.
fascinating conversation on creating friction to improve cx on financial products for LMI segments. #money2020 #productdesign #fintech
Hey @money2020 - please add design or user experience as a topic on the braindate app. K thanks. #Money2020 #ux
