I've done a lot of different kinds of work in Web3 over the years, and I am shifting almost entirely to research and writing this year for one reason alone: The war for our digital sovereignty will be won via narrative. I think that writing is the single most important thing that value-aligned individuals can do in this stage of ecosystem development. The potential of this ecosystem is entirely nascent and, honestly, completely incomprehensible to the average person. What even does sovereign digital identities mean? Very few are building and funding this development, because there is no cohesive narrative and use case development around what that looks like. Few truly understand the value to be built here. It isn't flashy, like the casino games are. To drive the ecosystem in the direction of true change, we have to craft the story people need to hear. And it will come as no surprise, it has to come from all of us! No single person can cover the breadth of this narrative and reach every nook and cranny.

Love this. Thanks for responding so promptly! If you'd like to say more, where are you planning to concentrate most of your research and writing time this year? I'm asking more about the research questions that drive you than specific projects.
