It genuinely amazes me to see how many people LOVE what we’ve built at @OpenbandsXYZ.
It hasn’t even been a month since launch, and we’ve already surpassed 10,000 users!
Recap of this week's numbers:
> Crossed 10k signed-up users
> Over 1k daily active users
> Close to 40% weekly user retention
> 50+ new subcommunities created by users
> We also launched another World Cup ticket giveaway. In total, we gave 3 tickets worth over $6,000 to the community!!!
From the beginning, our mission has been to reward real people who create value for others with tangible, real-world rewards. Not just token incentives. So far, people seem to appreciate that A LOT.
Our focus remains on maximizing value for our users, and we have many exciting new features and campaigns dropping very soon. ✨🎁

I remember the internet as a magical place where friendships were formed and authentic discussions thrived, but unfortunately that magic is disappearing faster than ever.
It started with online games being flooded with bots, and now we're experiencing the same within our social feeds. And it sucks. It takes away the fun. People want to know if they are talking to a bot or a human.

Our friends at @world_id chose us as one of the first teams to beta test Selfie Check verification.
Selfie Check is a super simple way to verify that someone is a unique human with minimal user friction. It takes about 20 seconds to complete.
More than 1000 people have already completed Selfie Check through Openbands and joined bot-free communities.

DeepMind's Andrew Trask on why cryptography keeps beating AI:
"Cryptography and machine learning are kind of opposites. They're a yin and yang. Machine learning is like, no matter how noisy the signal is, I'm going to recover the structure and figure it out. And cryptography is like, no matter how big the structure is, I'm gonna hide it in this noisy thing that provably you can't find unless you have the key."
"So they're arch nemeses of each other, locked in an epic battle to figure out who can hide structure and who can recover structure."
"Up until this point, cryptography has won overwhelmingly. There's been a long-term defense advantage that's come from cryptography, and this has had enormous political implications, the ability for everyday individuals to send messages that no powerful state or centralized power can see."
"The real problem we're facing is not a weakness in cryptography. It's human flaws in the proof-making for new things, and the rollout of distributed systems, getting people to update versions of software. That's a very hard problem, because it's a collective action problem, but it's different than cryptography being broken."
"In the end, cryptography will win, but that doesn't mean that no one will get hacked. The cryptography is not going to lose, but the people holding the keys to cryptography are vulnerable. So what we actually have is a people-versus-people problem."
