Light Progress

Today’s Todos

Completed https://light.so/blog - will lead to partnership announcements like the one below. (Thank you to 0xOzh for the design 🙇‍♂️)

One thing that I’m (personally) excited about Light is the power of partnerships in crypto as a chain abstraction protocol. Unlike most partnerships in crypto that are the sake of partnerships, we have an opportunity to highlight and showcase the underlying unique ecosystems of chains, projects, and people - which I think is exciting. Thoughts here: https://typefully.com/t/fm3G8uW

What Light is focused on

Light is focused on creating the most accessible layer to experience and harness the power of crypto for most people - and that starts w/ supporting as many projects, chains, and actions as possible with little-to no barriers.

Github dumb PR of the day

https://github.com/LightDotSo/LightDotSo/pull/2260

What nobody will literally notice about Light is that all of the assets are stored under an R2 (S3-compatible service by eastdakota) but are backed up to ardrive, so all of assets are recoverable and stored in perpetuity in the event that a storage service or X goes down. ex) R2 ↔ Arweave

Some Related Notes

Used cursor for the first time! I’m using it together w/ https://openrouter.ai/ (can pay w/ crypto which i think is really cool) - going to use it over the next couple of days to see if I like it and how a product can overcome being a “GPT Wrapper”.

Update: Tried it out but, the pricing is really bad - $20 / Month is just not a good deal for most if limited by 500 fast queries. But the slow queries are unlimited - perhaps trying that out?
