I’ve been cooking a frame. Not an overnight effort. Excited to learn a bunch of things in the process. 

Got really excited by CBW and Wallet  announcements recently :)

Gensler really killed crypto. Stopped entrepreneurs, but left memecoins to reign. 

Bureaucratic assassination.

American consumerism does a great job at getting you purchase things by seasons and holidays. 

Crypto is still missing that. It’s a miss that we don’t have a great valentines thing to do onchain.

Did someone let @dwr.eth make Mole again?

I wanna know how and where these co’s are recruiting the talent necessary to build tokenized systems. These are not simple launches.

Central Park as opposed to Decentralized Park.

The Internet took off because Google was the front door and made it easy to find the most important/valuable sites via text search. 

Social feeds (a la Farcaster) become the front door from crypto because it makes it easy to see what your friends are doing / discussing about onchain. Social is the front door to mainstream crypto.

New Essay: The Age of Agency

Our new technological age enables unprecedented individual market influence, creating massive opportunity for those with true agency. Yet, the very systems that empower us also undermine our ability to exercise that agency. When given infinite opportunity, the real challenge is not access to tools or platforms, but the cultivation of intentionality—the ability to define a clear vision and act on it amidst the noise, fragmentation, and liquidity of our environments. We must urgently design systems that increase the agency of humanity, as the impact of agency (and its absence) compounds over time.

“Yes, you can just do things, but which things should you do?”

Wise words from a decent man.
