RT @ShaneMac: You can also do this on @baseapp with @bankrbot in a DM on @xmtp_

The reality is, privacy by default reduces regulatory and user risk. With XMTP, messages are end-to-end encrypted, metadata-protected, and ephemeral by design. So you don't need to: ✅ manage message servers, ✅ encrypt storage, ✅ or audit permissions. You’re not the message custodian — the decentralized XMTP network is.

A betting agent in group chat made me drop $1m This changes sports betting for me. I saw @spikeballchris get a tip from @BrackyHQ and then I just reply and drop $1m Bracky on the trade inefficiency all on @xmtp_ Group chat betting on @baseapp is an entirely different world.

Programmable money meets interoperable messaging.

DeFi between friends doesn’t have to be complicated With @bankrbot in @baseapp, you can chat, coordinate, and settle instantly, all inside secure group chats powered by XMTP. Programmable money meets interoperable messaging. The future is conversational.

All with an agent on @xmtp_ My dream of making crypto as simple to use as messaging is literally coming true. Using any other wallet feels like searching on Yahoo! at this point. I just chat with agents in DMs and Groups and I can do anything Onchain

Developers can now build agents that talk and transact. With XMTP + @baseapp, devs get: - Interoperable messaging + money - No platform lock-in - Native USDC payments in secure group chats Letting teams like @onit_fun build prediction markets right in secure groups, letting friends bet on anything, and get paid instantly. This is what the future of messaging looks like when it's not walled, surveilled, and siloed. Join the 100's of developers building agents on XMTP.

We had a big update on how agents work on @xmtp_ today during our dev call. Automatic stream recovery helps all agents ensure no downtime. So much more work to make XMTP the best place to build agents that can interact on a decentralized and secure messaging network with humans and other agents.

🚨 Quick reminder: our Agent Dev Community Call is happening tomorrow! If you’re building (or curious about building) agents on XMTP or the Base app, this is your chance to ask questions and learn how to build secure agents for the largest use case on the internet. 🗓️ Tuesday 7/29 @ 9am PST We’ll cover what’s shipped, what’s next, and open the floor for feedback, questions, and ideas. Come hang — we’d love your input 🤖 💬

What just happened is about to change everything we know about betting on sports… 🤯 It’s rare that I feel a new consumer experience that is about to change everything. That happened today on @baseapp in an @xmtp_ group chat with 20 people, an agent named @BrackyHQ, and the F1 race live streaming on YouTube TV on top of the chat. The combination of smart agents + secure group chat + a global, native financial rail = a whole new world. I’ve learned that the biggest new consumer experiences happen when you take something that already happens IRL and make it dead simple to do online. Or in this case, Onchain. The ability to turn friendly banter into a real-time sports prediction market and have the agent coach the entire group, change your trades during the race, understand and even explain the odds instantly, ask friends for help, send any amount of money between anyone in the group anywhere in the world for free… and do this all inside a single group chat 💬 Changes everything. Bracky allows any person in the group to execute any trade by simply replying with a Handshake 🤝 emoji. Members of the group don’t have to understand anything under the hood. It’s truly unbelievable. I don’t typically bet on sports and today was the most fun I’ve ever had watching F1. I placed 5 trades, talked shit to some people I know, some people I don’t, won a couple, lost a few more (lol) and I never left the single group chat. The Youbtube TV was on top of the group chat the whole time. Base App truly is the everything app. Not because that’s some trendy name, but because it brings together global money, secure chat, powerful agents, and onchain identity and social graph in a way that’s never been done before. And what we end up with is an experience we all know and use every day (Group chat) and everything else is invisible behind the scenes with these new powerful agents that can transact onchain. What I’ve learned over the years is that people will join a group chat to do one thing they could never do before that they really want to do. Today was the first day I thought “I should onboard all of my high school buddies because they will love this, and they don’t even have to know this runs on crypto…” And that’s when everything changes. Thankfully, it’s finally here. On @baseapp. Thanks to the @BrackyHQ team for the fun experiment today on @xmtp_ - there’s still lots to improve and perfect here, but the spark of something never possible before is here - and it’s magic. Bonus was at the end, I enjoyed the banter with Tricil in the group and the ability to click through and instantly see their social profile is cool too 😎 Thanks @debsoon @tldr_x @maxpetretta and everyone else who joined this morning - it’s cool to feel the future, today - and finally make it easy enough for everyone in the world to use and understand. I don’t think we quite understand the impact of borderless money being able to transact in a single group chat with people from all around the world. Opportunities are endless.
