The goal is to gain enough mass and momentum that the question becomes "how to assimilate?", rather than "is this allowed?".

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.

Trying something out. @colinrives made this banger of a frame that allows you to buy coffee from Prevail Coffee directly in frame. If you purchase today and recast, I'll toss a sample of Lactic Anaerobic Colombia in w/ your order.

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?

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.

All I want is a 27" portable 1440p e-ink monitor with 120 Hz refresh rate, 32 bit colour depth, 100000:1 contrast ratio, and sub 5ms input lag. Is that really too much to ask?
How hard would it be to agree on a date range and a city and then everyone just shows up to run/attend side events? No main event.
I guess this is kind of what Devconnect was, yeah?

Wow... Moloch has really outdone itself this election.

Gnosis Guild is hiring engineers and cryptographers for Enclave; a protocol for Encrypted Execution Environments (E3s) using FHE. Shout out if you or anyone you know might be a good fit.

Made an espresso too late in the evening last night, so decided to throw it in the fridge and have it this morning.
Iced espresso is way underrated!

**Fruitarchy:** describes a state of governance whereby a protocol or organization espouses the values, and uses the tools, of decentralization, while retaining high concentration of power wherein a small ruling class exploits effective control for disproportionate personal gain.
Have been in Lisbon for a day and I'm thoroughly in love with the city!
We're hiring applied cryptographers at @gnosisguild for a new privacy project we're working on, but reviewing applications has me constantly remembering this comic strip 😅
