Miles audit update: 4 flights credited: 845 miles + 8 XP. 7 emails sent, more claims pending. Couldn’t find a boarding pass so Codex got a boarding declaration from Transavia and sent it to Flying Blue. Would’ve taken me 2+ hours. A great use of AI for tedious admin.

Jammed with GPT-6 Pro on a roadmap for learning to engineer with AI. Really nice that you can tag a Space directly in the conversation. I tagged mine and asked it to turn what we'd jammed on into a dedicated learning page there. Saving it into the Space didn't work. Still rough around the edges, but that would have been awesome. It's close to a workflow I already use Notion for. Jam on something, turn it into a plan and keep it somewhere I can build on later. If this gets smoother, I can see it pulling me away from Notion..

I’m very close to moving from Arc to @AsideAI. It pains me to leave such a beautiful browser but I’m running into more bugs and it eats up a lot of RAM. Used to look forward to reading the release notes and lately it’s mostly Chromium updates and changes to where links and extensions live.

People complain about crypto UX, myself included. But try doing the things you’re used to doing in crypto with a traditional broker. Makes you appreciate how seamless some things already are in crypto. I tried getting my account data out of Interactive Brokers. Without AI, it would probably have taken me three times as long. On Kraken, it took two clicks.

Something worth highlighting in Wazz’s $18.4M investigation on Robinhood Chain is that the wallets didn’t beat Pons’s anti-sniping protection. The creators exempted them from it. Pons' opening buy tax starts at 99% then falls away within seconds. But the creator is automatically exempt and can add up to 32 extra wallets at launch. So the creator decides who pays the tax and who gets a pass. Why have anti-sniping protection if the deployer can exempt their own wallets? And if those exemptions exist buyers should see them clearly on the token page before buying. Having something recorded onchain isn’t the same as making the risk obvious.

I wanted to understand how people trade the trenches, so I gave my agents some homework. Asked Astra to use @ego_agent and Luna Max to go through three videos and report back with the transcripts and key insights. My only intervention so far is taking over to skip the ads. Probably time to install an adblocker. Next is seeing what’s useful for my own LP strategies and what doesn’t translate. Been enjoying getting more hands-on with those. Will share what I learn and what I end up testing. Truly incredible what we can do with this technology. We are only limited by creativity and agency.

There’s a weird, funny dopamine rush when your weekly Codex limit is about to reset or you’re expecting one of those gift resets. Suddenly you’re looking at everything you’ve been putting off. What can I fix, improve or build? Should I use fast mode? Finally tackle performance or knowledge base structure? What else can I get agents working on? Paying for more compute pushes me to do more with it. Would recommend trying it for a month and seeing what you get done.

I was looking at Binance’s research on pre-IPO markets and the IPO-age data stood out. The median US company going public in 2025 was 12 years old compared with 8 years in the 1980s. The report also says 87% of US companies with more than $100m in revenue are private. We talk a lot about making investing accessible but for most retail investors access still starts once a company decides to list. If businesses spend more of their lives private, ordinary investors are being asked to wait longer before they can participate. We need this kind of access. Onchain markets can open it up to more people around the world giving them exposure to businesses before they go public and access to opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach. Exciting future.

Reading this week’s headlines without looking at the chart, I would’ve expected a worse market. CLARITY stalled, the Fed hiked, and BTC ETFs lost roughly $746M across two days. BTC is back around $80K. Doesn’t mean macro stopped mattering. Can’t tell whether that’s strength or typical htf resistance observations.

I decided to get more hands-on with providing liquidity. It took me about 14 transactions and 30 minutes across 3 chains just to get one position running. Understanding the strategy and its risks should take some effort. Moving funds into place shouldn’t be a project of its own. Hard to believe this is still the experience in 2026. We’ve built all these financial tools, but users still have to stitch them together. We’re building @elitra_xyz to make the whole process easier from understanding what you’re getting into, acting on your decision to keeping track of what changes.

A tokenized-stock portfolio can have more names and still depend on the same AI spending cycle. Imagine adding a chipmaker, a cloud provider and a data-centre operator. Different businesses, but if your reason for owning all three is that AI spending will keep growing, you’ve added three versions of the same bet. Putting those positions onchain doesn’t change what drives their revenues. If you’re bullish on AI,owning all three can make sense. If you want a broader portfolio, decide what other long-term trend you believe in and build exposure to that. Bitcoin or gold could be candidates for a separate scarcity thesis rather than adding a fourth company tied to AI spending.

Underrated workflow in the Codex app and Claude Code CLI: letting threads talk to each other. I had added a call transcript to one thread and needed some of that context in another. Instead of uploading it again or copying half the conversation, I just asked it to ping the other thread for what it needed. Also useful when one thread is building and another is reviewing. The reviewer can ask why a decision was made without pulling in the whole debugging session. Or ask for an update on a long-running task from the thread you’re already in. Each thread keeps its own context and passes over the relevant findings. They don’t need to share the whole conversation. Saves a lot of copy-pasting and re-explaining.

The Doge community still has something I loved about early crypto: people trying things, building together and having fun along the way. Excited to be building @elitra_xyz in the DogeOS ecosystem and bringing that spirit into apps people can use. More coming 🐕 Join our alpha through the website. Happy to personally walk you through it.
