What a week! [**The Merkle team has shipped like crazy this week**](https://warpcast.com/dwr.eth/0xbbd5e640) with so many new features we've lost track! But they are all in the show notes below. Plus we had a [**special episode**](https://zora.co/collect/base:0xc678c2b1ced0f2a2666ae9b76a3be1d0ced09925/51) with [**@jacek**](https://warpcast.com/jacek) to chat about [**$degen**](https://warpcast.com/~/channel/degen) (DYOR, not financial advice, etc etc) and [**@nonlinear**](https://warpcast.com/nonlinear.eth) on [**Fridays with Frens**](https://zora.co/collect/base:0xc678c2b1ced0f2a2666ae9b76a3be1d0ced09925/52) chatting about [**Fabric**](https://warpcast.com/~/channel/fabric) and [**Hypersub**](https://hypersub.withfabric.xyz/).
