What’s the big picture here? What is Addresso part of exactly? Most obviously, Addresso is a response to web3’s Achilles heel — identity. We’ve seen Vitalik expressing concern about the current state of identity very recently (11 April), and our friends at /walletbeat are grappling with this same concern too. Addresso addresses this matter directly. But there’s a bigger picture too, a big picture in which things get very exciting very fast. At least it’s what gets us jumping out of bed in the morning! 🤩 We’ve just launched Transition9 with the wonderful @kernel0x community. Addresso is wholly compatible with Transition9 in terms of Gaia coding and local-first because Transition9 begins with meaningful identity. Here’s the website … we think you might just love it. https://transition9.ai

We've just launched Transition9 at the finale of @kernel0x block 10 (aka KBX). The Transition9 movement works for the natural integration of human and next-level AI in harmony with a new nature-inspired computing architecture. By next-level we mean beyond LLMs. We'd love to discuss our approach with anyone who thinks we're onto something; or who doesn't! 😄 https://transition9.ai

We’ve finished a full draft of our white paper and have started to share it with some wonderful organisations we’d love to count on as partners. Delighted to say we can confirm the first of these: https://www.kernel.community/

Feedback from someone who just tried Addresso's brand new feature — to share web3 addresses — and then read our blog post describing how we made it easy, private, secure, *and* local-first. "Cool. V. cool." So that's nice 😁

I’ve already moved from Gmail to Proton, and I’ve never used WhatsApp, always Signal. Today I deleted Google Maps and installed Magic Earth. www.magicearth.com

Hi @paragraph. I'm logged into Paragraph. I'm on a publication page that I'd like to subscribe to. I hit "Subscribe" and you ask for an email address. Why? I just want it in my feed. What am I doing wrong? Is Gemini right when it tells me ... "You're encountering a frustrating limitation of Paragraph.xyz's current implementation. It's designed to heavily rely on email, even when you're logged in with a Web3 wallet, which goes against the core ethos of Web3." ?

We’re heads down writing a white paper on the future of everything. Well OK, not everything, but our vista is expansive in terms of the kinds of things you can read on https://addresso.com/technology.html DM me if you’re interested in getting an early peek.

I have to write this somewhere. Microsoft Word is appalling. There, I feel a little bit better already.

Chatting with Gemini and it casually notes: “Today is October 10th, 2024.” Gotta love LLMs.

We get the question: How does Addresso relate to ENS? Here's our FAQ response: Addresso and name services (NS) do different things. Addresso accommodates a future in which we all have many uncorrelatable wallets. Addresso has accepted ENS names since day 1, storing both the ENS name and the address it resolves to. Soon your Addresso will accept other name services too. It will flag whenever the NS name is expired, and also whenever the NS name resolves to an address different to the one(s) it resolved to before.

The view out my window in Amsterdam right now. The moon in waxing crescent. And that’s the acidic clouds of Venus reflecting sunlight at us, top right. Beautiful.

The Arctic explorer and ethnologist Vilhjálmur Stefánsson made the witty observation: "Unethical advertising uses falsehoods to deceive the public; ethical advertising uses truth to deceive the public." I can't imagine advertising Addresso, but I've found myself thinking about a pithy line or two ...

We're working out how best to bring collaborative Addresso Books into your web3 world 💥 Perfect for: — DAO members — your investment syndicate — your web3 venture firm — your fellow devs — your hackathon team — your family — etc. If you feel this is something you'd use the moment it's deployed, we'd love to jump on a quick call or otherwise swap notes so that we're more likely than not to get you exactly what you need. 🙏
