I'm looking forward to the revival of /words. it comes at a good time. I'm in the midst of a "post-every-day" project so getting feedback from fellow word people would be really helpful. Here's today's post. It's about how encryption is a key part of Open Money. Writing this made me wonder if what if crypto had been named something else? https://www.danielmcglynn.com/encryption-comes-standard/

I just used "wicked" and "hella" in the same sentence describing a piece of rope and I feel like it basically encapsulates my whole life story.

Because memecoins will only take us so far... "The infrastructure that enables accessible and seamless transfer of financial assets doesn’t stop at finance. It lays the groundwork for a reimagined digital world — a world where identity, user-control, collaboration, and participation take on entirely new forms." https://www.danielmcglynn.com/open-money-is-more-than-money/

I'm working on a project where I post everyday for the next lots of days in order to create some kind of longform work. The hope is that by dividing the big piece into small chunks it makes it easier for me to manage (I also have a job and a family to raise) and gives more surface for people to find the work and hopefully (fingers crossed) engage. By the end of this week, I'll be wrapping up the first section, which lays the groundwork for what I hope is a simple framework for understanding crypto or digital assets. Here's today's snippet: https://www.danielmcglynn.com/meta-narrative-of-our-times/

What's the best source of info you've found for helping out people dealing with the fires in LA? I'm particularly interested in getting connected with groups or organizations looking for things besides money. Thx

I grabbed this image the other night and I feel like it summarizes my feelings as a parent right now. My daughter and I were using an app to look at the night sky for science homework. With the aid of technology, were were discovering the location of planets and naming constellations. It felt like we had a new kind of superpower. Then we started to notice that the satellites. They also show up in the app's view of the night sky and were competing with the stars. In some places, there were entire streams of satellites. It made me feel incredibly hopeful and incredibly sad at the same time. Because of tech, my kids will get to experience things that are just not possible now, and definitely weren't possible when I was a kid. At the same time, it will come at a cost. A pristine night sky, which humans have been looking at since the beginning, might just be one of them.

Made it through the first week of publishing daily posts on the Open Money project. I'm starting to figure out some of the process things that need to happen. I'm really looking forward to gathering this all up in Sunday's newsletter and seeing how that looks or comes together. https://www.danielmcglynn.com/open-money-growth-story/

Day four: The Open Money project is designed as a framework with the intention of making the new economies and new ways of collaborating on the internet more accessible. The rub here is that I want people on FC to read this stuff and interact with it and share it, but really the main audience for Open Money are all of the people not yet onchain. I need to figure out how to get this in front of more people this might resonate with. As always, ideas and feedback is welcome. https://www.danielmcglynn.com/a-framework-for-everyone/

I spent the week working on a different post about competition and game theory. But then, scrolling headlines over the last few days, I came up with this idea. https://paragraph.xyz/@open-money/is-crypto-still-a-protest-movement

The fun part of writing on the internet is that you just never know. Sometimes you might produce a work that you think is at the staggering genius level. And then no one reads it, or "likes" it. Other times, you publish a quick work, one of those ideas that is only half cooked, and it takes off.
