gm gm,
Welcome back to the pre-festive week where crypto and AI will dominate the conversation again.
BTC just hit a new all-time high at $99,502.92, making history. Over in policy news, President-elect Trump had a chat with Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong, and Gary Gensler is stepping down as SEC chair in January 2025.
On the AI front, it’s all about new agents and cooler model upgrades keeping everyone on their toes.
Oh, and if you’re hunting for a Thanksgiving gift, the Bitkey hardware wallet is now up on Amazon. Crypto adoption just got a little more giftable.
As always, we’re using this space to provide you with the latest product updates and relevant industry news in the shortest form possible.
Let’s go! @getenzyme
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LEO FROM ONEPROFILE
Applying to jobs these days?
It’s easy. It’s like throwing darts 🎯
Well... except the room is dark, you’re blindfolded, the board is moving, and the room is moving. You never know if you missed, hit the bullseye, or if the board was even there to begin with!
After years of hard work, all you get is an automated rejection or, worse, ghosted mid-interview (yes, 48% of job seekers!) 🤯
Yes, companies are hiring. No, they are not hiring you!
But there’s a better way: meet Leo from OneProfile, the talent agent who scans the job market daily, crafts the best version of your profile and hits apply on your behalf. Leo also reports your status throughout the process, transparently.
And the best part? Leo keeps things simple and handles all of this right from your inbox!

IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Microsoft’s big AI reveal
Microsoft’s Ignite 2024 event put the spotlight on Copilot’s new AI agents, now in public preview.
These agents are designed to help businesses create software tools for tasks like project management, customer service, HR support (think payroll or holiday requests), meeting summaries, and multilingual communication.
Users can tweak how these agents work with templates and Azure AI integrations, keeping control over their behavior while following responsible AI guidelines.
The idea? Offload repetitive tasks so employees can focus on what matters. These agents operate autonomously, meaning no constant prompting is needed.
Practical innovation or more AI noise these days? What’s your take?
IN THE SPOTLIGHT
When AI meets blockchain
This is the moment when two of the most significant technological advancements of our time, AI and blockchain intersect to create the Agentic Web.
The agentic web represents the next evolution of the internet, transforming user interactions by leveraging autonomous AI agents operating on blockchain. These agents harness the benefits of decentralization, security, and programmability to redefine digital experiences.
The rise of the agentic web is gaining momentum, with early use cases emerging on platforms like Base. These AI agents handle tasks such as executing transactions, creating new AI agents, managing autonomous reward systems, and running complex operations - all with minimal human intervention.
