The right way of doing this is to build Internet First global private regulatory systems.

The key concept is to treat regulation as a binary classifier. To minimize false positive AND false negative rates. To quickly approve good projects AND correctly flag bad projects. To disclose all financial interests of regulators and put decisions onchain. To allow for appeal, by multiple independent regulators, in the advent of an incorrect project classification. And, finally, to allow users to ignore those reviews if they so choose.

That is, the right answer isn’t either (a) to just be randomly hostile towards projects or (b) to just tolerate everything or (c) to rely on the SEC and similar nation state regulators but rather (d) to build our own Internet First parallel regulatory systems that live on the Internet and aggregate signals *across* borders.

We know this works because it works for Amazon (book reviews), Uber (star ratings), Apple (app Reviews), and many others.

It will work for us.

What’s with all the duck sayings?

If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck…

Water off a duck’s back 

Like a duck to water

Lame duck

Ducks in a row

Smooth on the surface but paddling like hell underneath

Everything is ducks

It’s all ducks

It’s ducks all the way down

If you think the same and move in the same direction, that's a cult.
But if you think differently and move in the same direction, that's a movement.

What's the biggest scientific misconception?

growth

when u drop a litepaper *and* a bunch of supporting high-level explainer content (vids, threads etc), where does most of your engagement happen? 

any best practices?

Great discussion. Here's what comes up for me: 

I'm going to introduce a metaphor to explain this. Think of a body. We're building a collective body of knowledge. Mapping the informational genome so that we can understand the DNA that causes this body to exist in the way that it exists. Once we understand the body, we can improve its health. (1/12)
