💩 “Smart Butt” — Casana’s toilet tech. Amazon’s new living room. Fortnite’s epic victory.

Toss out your Fitbit... the biggest new thing in health tech is a smart toilet that analyzes your waste.

Happy B-Day to El Salvador, which just made Bitcoin legal tender… so we’re looking at how it went down (spoiler: lava).
