We are all set for #KCDNigeria26
So pumped!!!!
We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

I sincerely hope value was provided to the many, who stayed for the conversation.

@devVGBG
my best panel session of them all
@devVGBG I love your energy, spitting out bitter facts.
Last week I was at the National Theatre for an entirely different purpose.
Looks very different from when I came to see Dave Santan for two nights and understandably so too.

See y’all in a few hours.

I have used it all week and the claim is true. It beats Opus 5.5 hands down while delivering exceptional output in cited reports. Faster! 🤯⚡️
Take advantage of @yorkeccak giving out 5000 credits to anyone who replies his post to try it out. Let's go!

Excited to share that Evolution has joined Nuvion @ournuvion 🚀
When we started Evolution, we had a simple vision: make moving money across borders easier and more accessible for individuals and businesses, enabling them to go Global from wherever they were.
We believed that accessing global financial services shouldn’t be complicated simply because of where you live or where your business operates.
What started as a platform for exchanging digital assets grew into something much bigger. We built infrastructure that enabled people and businesses to hold multiple currencies, receive international payments, move money across borders, and access financial tools that were previously out of reach.
Along the way, we served thousands of users, processed millions of dollars in transactions, and learned firsthand what it takes to build financial infrastructure in emerging markets.
But more importantly, we saw just how much work remains to be done.
As we continued building, one thing became increasingly clear: solving cross-border banking challenges at scale requires more than a great product. It requires strong financial infrastructure, regulatory reach, and the ability to serve businesses wherever they operate.
That’s what makes this next chapter with Nuvion particularly exciting.
Nuvion is building an AI Powered Global banking platform for ambitious businesses, bringing multicurrency accounts, international payments, FX, virtual cards, and stablecoin infrastructure together in one place.
Our visions have always been closely aligned, and joining forces gives us the opportunity to pursue what we started at Evolution on a much larger scale.
For me, this is an opportunity to take everything we’ve learned building Evolution and apply it to something with the infrastructure, reach, and ambition to serve businesses around the world.
I’m especially excited that members of the Evolution team are continuing this journey with me at Nuvion. We’ve spent years building, solving difficult problems, and learning together. Now we get to bring that experience into a much bigger mission.
To everyone who believed in Evolution, our early customers, investors, partners, community, and the incredible people who contributed to our journey: thank you.
You trusted us when we were still figuring things out, challenged us to build better, and helped turn an idea into a real business.
I’m incredibly proud of what we built, and even more excited about what comes next.
Evolution was never just about building another fintech company. It was about making global banking accessible for the people and businesses who need it.
That mission continues at Nuvion.
The Job is just starting
Sincerely hoping Kano somehow comes with Dave Santan and they perform Chapter 16.
Would really make my night.
See ragebait ooo.
Some people still haven’t fully recovered.
The craziest part of the FTX story is that the victims got their money back. All of it, plus 18% interest.
And the money came from a bet Sam Bankman-Fried made with their cash.
Back in 2021, before anyone cared about AI, SBF quietly put $500 million of FTX money into a startup founded by ex-OpenAI researchers. That startup was Anthropic, the company behind Claude. When FTX blew up in November 2022, the stake was just another line item for the bankruptcy lawyers to pick through.
Three weeks after the collapse, ChatGPT launched.
Suddenly the most radioactive balance sheet in crypto was sitting on one of the hottest private assets on earth. The estate sold the 8% stake for $1.3 billion in 2024. Jane Street, the firm where SBF worked before founding FTX, was among the biggest buyers. That sale, plus the rest of the recovered assets, let the estate pay creditors between 118 and 143 cents on the dollar.
Here's the part I can't get over. Anthropic was just valued at $965 billion. The stake FTX dumped for $1.3 billion would be worth roughly $75 billion today. The hole SBF dug was $8 billion. His stolen-money side bet would have filled it nine times over.
One catch the victims know well. Claims were paid at November 2022 crypto prices. If you had a bitcoin on FTX, you got 118% of about $16,000, not your bitcoin.
The best trade of SBF's life was made with money that wasn't his. His victims collected the first $1.3 billion. Everyone who bought from the estate collected the rest.
Only 1 Bangkok🙌🏻
🏆 Bangkok was just voted the No. 1 Best City in the World by the readers of Condé Nast Traveller (UK) in their latest Readers' Choice Awards.
With an overall score of 97.68, the city topped this year's rankings ahead of destinations like Paris, Istanbul, and Rome.
What makes Bangkok unstoppable?
🍽 Street Food & Fine Dining: Sizzling Pad Thai from a night market stall one evening, world-class Michelin dining the next.
🙏 Timeless Culture: The golden grandeur of the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and iconic riverside temples.
🌇Sky-High Nightlife: Glamorous rooftop bars floating high above the city skyline.
😄 Unmatched Energy: The perfect vibe of vibrant markets balanced by warm, world-famous hospitality.
After missing out on the top ranks in recent years, Bangkok’s incredible comeback proves that travellers can't get enough of the City of Angels.

Excited to join the Silicon Valley & The World Global Advisory Board, an initiative launched by @semafor alongside Co-Chairs Sam Altman of OpenAI, Jensen Huang of Nvidia, Satya Nadella of Microsoft, Lisa Su of AMD, Divesh Makan of ICONIQ, and Ruth Porat of Alphabet.
Looking forward to bringing an African perspective to this global dialogue, championing alignment between the leaders building AI, the policymakers regulating it, and the businesses deploying it on the ground.
I’ve been “offered” 4 CTO roles on LinkedIn in 2 weeks by companies that do not exist. If scamming is the new ecosystem growth strategy, business is booming.

Today, Samsung, the world’s largest smartphone maker, and @solana announced a partnership to bring cross border USDC payments to 82M Galaxy devices.
Here’s @SolanaFndn CPO @vibhu on what this means for mass adoption, why Samsung is the ideal partner, and why he believes “every smartphone will eventually support stablecoins.”
Nothing to see here, just the absolute magic of Solana Developer Platform being shown to the world by the absolute greatest!
Amazing times!!
