I am hiring Farcaster devs. As context, I’m the former CTO of Coinbase. While there I drove our transformation from a four asset company (BTC, ETH, BCH, LTC) to the infinite asset backend Coinbase has now. I also championed and led the USDC launch at Coinbase, taking it from $0 to $1. And worked closely with @dwr.eth, who has been a friend for 10+ years. So, if you want to build real crypto products — not gambling, not vaporware — come work with us. I think Farcaster is exceptionally underrated as a protocol and want to use it as the backbone for a new kind of crypto-first school. To motivate: imagine if every problem you solved in college doubled as a portfolio piece — as a *proof-of-learning* NFT added to your public ENS. That would build a new kind of AI-proof verifiable resume. And that is what we want to build on Farcaster. So, come work with us! https://jobs.ns.com/33467

I have a strong feeling that many of the incumbent educational institutions will fail to adapt to the coming shifts over the next few decades and many new forms of higher education will be created and will flourish. verifiable learning credentials feels like a big part of this new era of self sovereign learning

Yes. And the protocol that @dwr.eth @v @linda and the team have built will be very helpful for this. As more context: for years I’ve been hiring from Twitter, not Harvard. But what if we could fuse those reputational signals — posting, problem solving — into a single cryptographically verifiable resume? It would solve several different kinds of recruiting problems at once. The decline of academia, the advent of AI attacks on traditional exams, the rise of the Internet as the primary mechanism to evaluate talent, the global nature of today’s tech talent pool, and so on. https://x.com/balajis/status/1387620334216437765?s=46
