@xmrMoneroCat: The Animated Series Episode 2: Halloween Ez7eEs53hQiXgCGmcbhdX5i1jgg2gC3F6MoeosuVpump

At the Plan B Forum in Lugano, @tether CEO @paoloardoino spoke about Hiraia's mission to provide decentralized education for the global south. Hiraia is not just a website, it's a fully off-line/on-device science tutoring app, powered by @qvac, now piloting in the Philippines ❤️ Learn more at hiraia.org!

Tether: a psychohistory interpretation. My latest keynote. @tether

Paolo Ardoino (@paoloardoino) talked about QVAC at Plan ₿ Forum (@LuganoPlanB) last week. Watch him explain how QVAC is built on seven years of Tether technology, why intelligence sovereignty and privacy matter if AI ends up in the hands of a few companies, and why Tether is in a rare position to build QVAC. And remember: “Not your AI, not your intelligence.”

lmaoo very clever ser. well done

Trick or treating in my everyday costume 🎃 3 hours until the release of Episode 2 by @helloluis

AI inclusion is the next frontier 🙏

Piloting my Hiraia AI tutor app with the indigenous Mangyan in Mindoro, Philippines. It took 5 hours to get to their elementary school at the foot of Mt Halcon, but if we had had an extra day (and a better pair of shoes!) they had another school that was even more remote ... reachable only by foot, six hours hike up the mountain! HUGE THANKS once again to @tether @qvac @paoloardoino for the research grant that continues to make this work possible, and to @gabusch @YGGAlerts for supplying this batch of mobile devices! ❤️ If you want to support the Hiraia project, please visit hiraia.org/support

Finished editing my second @xmrMoneroCat episode entirely from within my own custom-built video editing suite today. The whole thing is web-based, and every production step (script, character design, storyboard, image/video/voice/sfx generation) happens in the same mobile-friendly web space, so theoretically I could produce something right out of my phone. My biggest problem right now is that cloud-based video generators tend to be overly sensitive to copyrighted material, which means that if one of your characters happened to be a human male dressed as a big green ogre and the other character is a human male dressed as a donkey (it's Halloween, guys, come on!), the generator will just refuse to comply. So far I've been able to get around it by using community-run platforms, but I guess the eventual final form of this is to build and host my own image and video generator service as well 😅 Second episode out in 12 hours!

Here's the first 15 seconds of the new @xmrMoneroCat episode, straight out of my custom-built video editing suite 😅 Full #Halloween episode debuts tomorrow 1PM EST! solana:Ez7eEs53hQiXgCGmcbhdX5i1jgg2gC3F6MoeosuVpump

Take that, Bat-cat! ... Or is it Bat-dog?

This is the future I'm heading off by slowly recreating every tool I use as my own bespoke build. I'm not a Hollywood-level filmmaker so I need basically 1% of the features of Premiere and maybe 20% of CapCut. So I'll just build that slice using AI and add more features to my custom build as I find new use cases. The only penalty for getting it wrong is spending a few extra minutes writing a better engineering prompt, and in exchange I reduce my dependence on subscription-based software that is probably going to die off anyway. I'm planning on doing this with all the software I use, including the operating system, but I'll start with the small stuff and eliminate the subscriptions one at a time.

Yoo thats lit bro , the privacy stays on $Luke

Finally got around to making a solana:Ez7eEs53hQiXgCGmcbhdX5i1jgg2gC3F6MoeosuVpump PFP using the generator on the site. Super bullish on this project. Almost a decade of lore and the original artist @helloluis onboard and creating new content daily. Projects like this don't come around often. Extremely undervalued here. Grab a bag and hold, monero:native ATH soon. Luke will be trading in the millions before you know it @xmrMoneroCat

Our craft, our art Our talents unite We will emerge With anonymous might!

I love how people are still sleeping on one of the biggest privacy narratives rn $LUKE the Monero Cat, the original mascot of Monero, acknowledged on their own official website Meanwhile @helloluis, the original artist, is fully supporting the project and is here for the long run regardless of market conditions Organic growth always wins and we’re slowly seeing a cult community form with an actual fanbase willing to outwork everyone As time passes the narrative only gets stronger while the community keeps growing and more people discover the lore behind Luke Almost 10 years of history, the original artist onboard and a community that genuinely believes in what they’re building Ape now thank me later, start believing in something Community always wins as @_Shadow36 says LukeMillions Ca Ez7eEs53hQiXgCGmcbhdX5i1jgg2gC3F6MoeosuVpump

there is no moat

Insane how much history and lore $LUKE has behind it Merch, Reddit posts, comics, mentions from XMR core devs, Luis being recognized in Monero forums and by the community itself And now almost 10 years later we’re still here bringing Luke back to life through a brand new animated series This isn’t some random character created a few days ago, it’s Monero’s mascot with years of history behind it, even featured on the official @monero website @helloluis is putting in work every single day, digging up old documents, sharing forgotten pieces of lore and genuinely rooting for Luke’s success You can’t ask for much more when the original artist, the team and the community are all on the same page That’s how real meme cultures are built And regardless of market conditions, @xmrMoneroCat will keep building and pushing the lore forward $LUKE is here to stay LukeMillions Ca- Ez7eEs53hQiXgCGmcbhdX5i1jgg2gC3F6MoeosuVpump
