Taiwan is so fascinating.

Many know it supplies 90% of the world’s chip capacity. 

Lesser known:

- high social trust (one of the lowest covid fatality rates)

High social trust (one of the lowest covid fatality rate)?? 

How does social trust reflect collective health status?

I'm so so thankful that slowly but steadily more and more relevant and interesting non-crypto content is leaking into my Farcaster feed from various sides! 🙏🙂

a social trust would be nice

I was in NY at the peak of the Covid and I know firsthand the price of closing the city too late

the West need to re-learn from the countries like Taiwan a lot of things we are supposedly good at
