Mark Cuban: New American urban housing plans can be delivered with L2 smart contracts and NFTs

  • Wechat scan to share

Venture capitalist Jason Calacanis posted on X platform stating, "If I were the President of the United States, my first action would be to build 10 new cities in the United States, each with 1 million housing units. These fully planned cities will have excellent affordability, walkability, sustainability, and special amenities, bringing joy to children, the elderly, and the working class. If Saudi Crown Prince MBS can do this in Saudi Arabia, we can do it in the United States. We just need determination."

In response, Mark Cuban said he had already bought the town of Mustang in Texas. Jason Calacanis replied, "Great, I will send you a proposal for building a New American City. We will provide $250,000 for each housing unit, starting with 100,000 units, and unlock the other 900,000 units (construction task) when you achieve great success."

Mark Cuban asked, "So, you mean you will write a smart contract on ZK L2, which will check whether a construction permit has been issued and create an NFT and send it to me accordingly. When the oracle checks the property and utility records and confirms that the residence is completed, it will unlock and deliver 250,000 USDC to me? Will this smart contract continue to check the construction permit status and create a new NFT for each new housing unit? Is that right? We will use a multi-signature wallet to protect both parties' interests. Deal?"

Jason Calacanis replied, "I just plan to send you the money and trust that you can execute."

  • 1confirmation founder: There is a negative correlation between the popularity of the seed round and the success of the project product

    On April 29th, Nick Tomaino, the founder of 1confirmation, wrote on X that there is a negative correlation between the popularity of seed round projects and their success. Participating in a hot round is indeed exciting: high funding amounts, intense competition, big-name investors, and extensive media coverage. However, rarely does participating in such hot projects before the product-market fit is clear bring truly outstanding results. At 1confirmation, some of the most "popular" projects we have invested in have actually performed the worst.

  • U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserves may announce details in the coming weeks

    Trump signed an executive order in early March this year proposing to establish a national strategic reserve of Bitcoin and other tokens, and requested the Treasury Secretary to submit an evaluation report on the legality and feasibility of the plan within 60 days. With less than two weeks remaining until the 60-day deadline set by Trump's executive order, this means that more details about the US Bitcoin reserve will soon be disclosed. Market expectations for this may be one of the important catalysts for the recent rebound in cryptocurrency. In addition, any comments questioning the independence of the Federal Reserve have also had a positive spillover effect on Bitcoin.
