“There’s this meme of the ‘Linux/Android curse’ — that openness is bad because it means there will be like twenty distros that have different standards and don’t talk to each other.”

“I think Ethereum as a community — we should declare WAR against this phenomenon and we should beat it. We should be as decentralized and open as Linux and Android, and at the same time have as consistent a user experience as Apple.”

Excellent talk by @vitalik.eth on the future of interoperability, privacy and UX in the Ethereum ecosystem!

As expected, @ethglobal Pragma continues to be the highest-signal event at any given crypto conference by a long shot.

Even caught some socks thrown from the stage by stani.eth after his opening talk!

We help builders bring the vision of Ethereum to life.

never heard @lucanetz before but now a fan of him and Pudgy Penguins after hearing him at @jakub’s onchain social day. 

here are some good sound bites.

“the PFP game is a status game. i’m in the business of winning; i’m focused on scale and i wake up every morning and i wanna be the biggest and the best. 

crypto needs to cross the chasm and it’ll come down to the communities and products and brands built on top of these protocols. 

people think selling jpegs on crypto rails makes them a web3 business; no, that’s a web2 business.

a web3 business is building with your community and the hivemind with aligned incentives, rather than building in your own silo and making money on blockchain rails. those that embody those ethos will find success.

there is a weird thing in crypto where they build for crypto users and alienate web2 users, but crypto users are actually web2 users — so why don’t we just build for normal users and everyone will latch on. like im building Club Penguin for 2025.”

“crypto users are actually web2 users”

Seeing BitcoinTalk, TxStreet, BitcoinExplorer.org and Etherscan on display at the Singapore ArtScience Museum on the floor below the conference got me thinking…

What other historical events or inventions in recent memory would warrant displaying a live webpage in a museum? Not just one specifically created to be an interactive activation (though very cool and always a delight), but as a historical artifact?

New side quest unlocked: build a webpage worthy of being displayed in a museum.

Cool to see the variety of approaches and niches represented among the builder panelists at /farconasia. Decentralized social is still such a small space.

If you want remember something, cast it

Was a treat seeing @vitalik.eth and @ayamiya speak in-person yesterday. At a free crypto conference, too!

Loved hearing from @dabit3 on how he fell into crypto (and eventually web3 social at Lens) while almost becoming an L7 engineer at AWS.
