startup update we've joined @AntlerGlobal's 15th residency cohort with @minisendapp. over the past 9 months, we've been building stablecoin settlement infrastructure to help traders and freelancers move between chains and local payment rails while abstracting complexities in between. now we're extending that infrastructure to businesses through the Antler residency. it's going to be an exciting 10 weeks ahead,as always stay early! minisend.xyz
another big day tomorrow for @minisendapp honestly proud of this one!

as a startup your ability to scale is highly dependent on the no.of iterations you able to make fail fast & fix as you go.

I've been down the rabbit hole, studying a lot of LLM fundamentals, and came across something interesting Did you know that non-English text can cost more in AI token usage than English text? This is because of tokenization, the process of converting text into tokens that AI models can understand. Most popular tokenizers are heavily optimized for English, meaning words in languages like Swahili, Arabic, or Chinese may be split into more tokens than equivalent English text. More tokens = higher API costs. So, in some cases, asking an AI a question in Swahili could cost more than asking the same question in English. Language inequality exists even in AI pricing 😂

You can now trade the Nigerian naira from a stablecoin wallet. No Nigerian bank account required. Introducing @numoforex (ALL18), a 24/7 futures exchange for emerging market currencies, starting with the naira. Foreign traders can go long naira to earn the difference between Nigerian and US interest rates. Nigerian businesses that need dollars can lock in today’s exchange rate. Numo matches those two sides and already has over $700K in open interest. Congratulations on the launch, @robertleifke!

one thing we've noticed while talking to OTC traders and businesses is how much work goes into managing stablecoin liquidity. you're dealing with different counterparties, local currencies, payment providers and chains, sometimes all within the same trading day. we've been building Minisend OTC Desk to bring these operations into one place. @minisendapp otc brings cross-chain settlement and liquidity management into one platform so you don't have to fragment your assets or worry about fx beta access now open merchant.minisend.xyz/otc

Do you know you don’t have to submit your plugin into the official claude marketplace, it involves a lengthy verification process If you’d only like to share it with your colleagues, you can self host it on github, gitlab e.t.c As long as it has the `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` in it The marketplace.json file contains metadata about your plugin: - Name - Description and - Other details Claude needs to add it from your repo
