When did “diversity” become a bad word? Diversity drives innovation. For intersectional ideas to flourish, I highly recommend reading: The Medici Effect is "one of the most insightful books about managing innovation. Its assertion that breakthrough principles of creativity occur at novel intersections is an enduring principle of creativity that should guide innovators in every field." — Clayton M. Christensen

I first reached out to Matt Ahlborg because of his amazing research about #Bitcoin and Argentina (https://www.usefultulips.org) Now he launched PayPerQ, (website: ppq.ai), a sleek and functional ChatGPT4 experience which operates on a pay-per-query model via Bitcoin micropayments. With ppq.ai, you could ask 20 questions a day and still only spend ~$10 per month, and without linking a card! Go check it out!

I first learned about #Azteco from the #Nostrasia event manager in Japan. He was very excited about the company and how it was helping millions buy BTC without revealing their identity! This is how @Beautyon is creating a world in which #bitcoin is so ubiquitous and easy to use that it’s boring:

As far as we know, Alex Saab and Fat Leonard have never met. Yet their lives are intertwined in surprising ways. Both understood that buying low and selling high to the government is a sure path to riches. Both also experienced the risks of this business model: each man ended up in jail as a result of Hollywood-worthy international schemes. But it gets even more involved: just before last Christmas, the two were exchanged by two governments with very different ways of approaching corruption.
