@VitalikButerin just opened Devcon and set the tone for the week.
A formally verified OS, open silicon, self-sovereign healthtech, free discourse, private communication, trustworthy AI β these are all part of Ethereum's mission.
Creating the account for your ai agent is the easy part.
The next question is the human one: when an agent shows up, whose is it, and who vouches for it?
People earn trust through who knows them. Agents will need the same.
The social graph was never a company asset. Itβs a social fact created by the user.
Now we need the infrastructure to make it visible, portable, and usable across people, apps, and AI agents.
A joint piece with @rep_hq on what that could look like π https://t.co/7s9972Mbnj
Prices used to be announced. Now they get argued about, in public, by strangers, live.
That's the shift, not the asset, the crowd. And if the crowd sets the price, the trade should sit right next to the conversation.
Wall Street is waiting for Anthropicβs IPO
Crypto is already pricing it
Bullish or overpriced? π

Physical minimalism got easier when one laptop could replace dozens of things.
Maybe AI does something similar for social.
If a bot can handle the information, the feed can become less about keeping up with everything and more about the people you actually know.
That's the part worth owning.
Three leaks in one week. A vendor, a bank, now an engineer's laptop. And again, none of them involved the blockchain breaking.
It's wild how much of our data ends up sitting in places that become targets. We keep talking about how to secure it all. Guess the better question might be why so much of it gets collected in the first place.
Maybe the safest data is the data nobody's hoarding.
Portals, then search, then feeds. Every era of the internet gets a gatekeeper.
Feels like the next one could be an AI agent that sits between you and everything you read. Apps were never the product. They were the container.
@KimmoOrb, our Head of Product at Lens & Orb, shares his take on what comes after big social on the @nym community callπ

Excited to see ENS V2 launch.
We'll continue supporting ENS and bring ENS profiles, connected socials, credentials, onchain activity, and the broader Web3 ecosystem together in one place.
Every internet era invents a new place to gather.
Then it slowly forgets why people stay.
Forums had threads.
Discord had rooms.
The feed has a stream.
None of them solved what happens when the same people want to keep finding each other years later.
π Firefly LoL Worlds 2026 Trading Championship is LIVE!

Nobody stays on social media because they like it.
They stay because their friends are there.
Apps can change hands, but you shouldnβt lose your people when they do.
