All stability is relative
Love this vision for network societies and where web3 (and adjacent technologies) might help to enable them, by @Divya Siddarth, @SlaughterAM, and @glenwys

Most people never really think about the fact that using the internet means their device is talking to many other devices via a globe-spanning network.

For some reason, remotely logging into my @dappnode makes this fact much more tangible.

Controlling a machine I physically set up from a cafe down the street, a different state, or the other side of the planet.

Feels like pure magic ✨

I messed up at ETHCC, spent too much time going to multiple side events. Ended up worn out and having relatively little time to just let serendipity do its thing.

At Devcon, I'm planning to pick one daytime event and one evening event each day.
The thing that most consistently excites me about Ethereum is that it's this big shared playground for experimenting with novel combinations of mechanism design and cryptography.

What is the most interesting new mechanism or cryptographic primitive you've seen recently?
Buy coffee, never leave farcaster.
The future is now.
How do we onboard the next billion L2s?
A few weeks ago, we announced @EnclaveE3—a protocol for encrypted execution environments (E3).

It grew from our efforts to solve for secret ballot, but has evolved into something much broader, tackling deeper trust and privacy challenges in web3.

Each component of @enclavee3 imparts a specific quality.

FHE: compute over ciphertext

MPC: distribute control of the keys that data is encrypted to

ZKP: succinct verification of the various computational steps

Blockchain: guarantees censorship resistance & correct execution
What are the most interesting places that auctions are used onchain?

What flavour of auction do they use?
(English, Dutch, Vikrey, something else?)
It's not that people cannot think for themselves. Most people, at least in my experience, seem reasonably rational.

However, we live in a near constant state of information cascade.

The force of will required to trust one's self in this state is monumental.
The optimist says this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true.
Simulation is kinda glitchy lately, no?

Who are the biggest network state nerds? I have something fun to show them.
Suppose Alice and Bob are trying to decide who should take out the trash. Naturally, they decide to flip a coin.

However, realizing they no longer have any physical coins to flip, they decide flip their coin onchain.

Where can they get some reliable randomness?
Monitors with embedded eGPUs? 🤔
Alice has USDC, Bob has a bank account. Alice wants to send Bob 100 USDC, Bob wants to receive $100 USD (or thereabouts) in their bank account.

What are the best current solutions?
