Hey @vitalik.eth see https://mattereum.com/wp-content/uploads/docs/Policy-Briefing-Putting-the-blockchain-to-Work-for-America.pdf for a professionally written policy briefing with analysis suitable for discussion at the White House level. Mattereum folks have pre-crypto careers with a lot of relevant experience.

Are you going to the White House Digital Asset Summit? This briefing is **good** — I project managed the Ethereum launch in 2015, policy background going back to 2002, crypto to 1997. This is the wisdom. https://mattereum.com/wp-content/uploads/docs/Policy-Briefing-Putting-the-blockchain-to-Work-for-America.pdf

Hey @vitalik.eth wasn’t the whole point of the Ethereum Foundation MIST browser research that web security is incompatible with smart contract security? That’s why we needed MIST. Web browser cryptography is unsuitable for smart contract UIs. OKCONTRACT seems like a new approach to filling the MIST gap?

Ethereum is anarchosyndicalist. DAOs are collectives. Ethereum is the infrastructure which interconnects the collectives. This is the structure of an anarchosyndicalist society. Make Anarchosyndicalism Great Again.

Ethereum-style smart contracts are ideal for tokenizing the rebuild of Los Angeles… but it has to be on the Bitcoin blockchain, sorry folks https://medium.com/humanizing-the-singularity/getting-home-permit-to-permanence-the-new-normal-and-financing-the-rebuilding-of-la-with-bitcoin-8b9bd21300a3

If anybody’s eager to talk RWA legals, I’m at #ethcc and in Brussels for another couple of days. http://mattereum.com

My crypto “BlackRock is here” State of the Union. Looking backwards at 30 years of cypherpunk, and forwards at how to align the global systems which support full decentralisation. https://x.com/mattereum/status/1800535267012722711?s=46&t=2M36wjuULZupUvqhKIoehA

Is BlackRock going to extract all the value that Ethereum creates? 1990s cypherpunk gave the world SSL certificates and link encryption. But all the world used them for was catalogue shopping. Do we change TradFi? Or will TradFi change us? My analysis is in the EthPrague talk linked below.

Cypherpunk created $trillions for the online retail industry via the cryptography needed to process credit cards. Ethereum stands ready to create even more trillions of dollars for the financial industry by giving them new cryptography. But. https://live.ethprague.com/ethprague/watch?session=665833db036a981493b0c0b6

I cannot tell you the legal bullshit mattereum.de had to wade through to: * issue a fully legit token * with a referrer program * which has clear and precise economics We'll be offering this as a service to people who want to reuse our model to issue their own tokens. It can be done it’s just super hard.

Mattereum.de Airdrop Referrer System allows people (not US or UK residents, alas) to earn MATR tokens by spreading the word about the token launch. Read more about the program here. 4 weeks to go, so act now https://mattereum.de/2024/06/05/mattereum-gmbh-launches-mattereum-airdrop-referral-system-mars-for-matr-token/

@vitalik.eth sorry to miss you in Prague — got there a day later than planned due to Latvian logistics. I did a talk about values, 30 years of cypherpunk, and the arrival of big finance. Could you please amplify it? Some important ideas. https://live.ethprague.com/ethprague/watch?session=665833db036a981493b0c0b6

A “State of the Union” on crypto, U$ government relations, and the whole privacy/money project. 10 years of Ethereum. 30 years since the Crypto Anarchist Manifesto. BlackRock just arrived. Is our future carrying $ for TradFi? Revolution? https://live.ethprague.com/ethprague/watch?session=665833db036a981493b0c0b6

Shares vs. Tokens for implementing fractional ownership. https://x.com/mattereum/status/1779861612871942560?s=46&t=2M36wjuULZupUvqhKIoehA

The SEC doesn’t really use the Howie test, they actually use the Jimmy Carter test: “Anything an American lusts for in their heart is a security, unless they plan to eat it or f**k it” Of course there is war
