Wow, with the monitor you can get a full computer for $190. That’s pretty cool, especially if you offload heavier computation to other machines (Codespaces, CI pipelines, etc)

Ethereum public goods funding is alive and well. This is the real ETH alignment - supporting developers who are working day in day out to make the chain better

Cosmos got a lot of things right, but bootstrapping consensus is really hard

Good question. It’s a bit different than most appchains because it’s not Turing-complete, so I view it as more akin to a cross between a DA layer and a storage layer. But in the sense that it’s a blockchain dedicated to an app, yes!

The entire history of computing is one of vertical scaling -> horizontal scaling Large alt L1s/L2s -> appchains is inevitable

This isn’t exactly the plot of Daemon but it’s not very far off haha. Cited in the Ethereum whitepaper in their discussion of DAOs

Agreed. Rollups in the Ethereum ecosystem are still centralized to a degree that I’m not comfortable with. But the more that moves onchain and removes centralized offchain permissions, the better off these systems will be

My own take is that bottom-up experimentation is a huge benefit, solid interop and composability makes a massive difference, but bootstrapping consensus is really hard. We hope to make the biggest difference on the last item and improve the great work that exists for the rest

Today we're bringing together everything: - DAOs taught us about ownership - working with consumer apps showed us scale - launching rollups revealed centralization risks They were all pieces of a bigger puzzle What we learned: - communities need real ownership - reaching scale comes from user alignment - value must flow to apps and their users - tech alone doesn't drive adoption Autonomous chains are our answer: a way for communities to truly own their platforms, control their economies & build their future. Excited to share more about what we're building. This brings together everything we've worked on since brainstorming the earliest aspects of Syndicate in 2018. The future is autonomous.

community ownership + scalable tech + aligned incentives = Syndicate chain

InfoSec. A curious, tinkering-oriented culture that’s mostly moved to Mastodon and is historically anti-crypto

I really like https://www.eden.art/. The team built a lot of custom pipelines that are quite high quality (I’m also an angel in them, because I like the team and product)
