What if the AI revolution is not only about models, but about energy, compute and the infrastructures that make it possible?
On June 16 in Paris, ECHOS of 2050 will bring together leading voices to explore AI, Web3, European digital sovereignty and the future of our societies.
With Fatih Balyeli, Laurent Alexandre, Maxime Fournes, Bernard Benhamou, Vincent Casillas, Alain Garnier and Guillaume Chevillon.

TLDR on the talk with @HayatOutahar on blockchain geopolitics and decolonizing cyberspace:
the core tension
– the cypherpunk community has individual sovereignty because of technical privilege. but most people will never be cypherpunks, and they’re the ones who need these tools most. can we transform a culture of resistance into a culture of influence?
– we’ve moved from digital colonialism to cognitive colonialism: AI now stores intimate data (feelings, confessions, private thoughts) giving corporations and governments access to something they never had before. the people who understand this danger aren’t the ones most exposed to it
why blockchain is geopolitics
– cyberspace is the fifth geopolitical domain. like land, sea, air, and space - wars are fought there, territory is claimed, power is projected. states and big tech are already treating it that way. the decentralized community isn’t at the table yet
– the global North uses decentralized infrastructure to understand how to extend dominance. the global South uses it to reduce corruption and build alternatives. same technology, completely different stakes
– what we built is being absorbed: crypto assets are now regulated, stablecoins are bank liquidity infrastructure, CBDCs are state monetary control. institutions are building “private blockchains”, inspired by what we built, stripped of what made it meaningful
what needs to happen
– the decentralized ecosystem needs ambassadors. right now, decisions about the future of cyberspace are made between big tech, states, and banks - without us
– Ethereum as a political laboratory: DAOs already know how to govern, find consensus, manage conflict. that capacity should be turned outward, not just inward
– network states as proof of concept: Liberland, Zuzalu, Ilvermont; each a laboratory for hybrid governance. sovereignty is infrastructural: if you control your infrastructure, you are sovereign
– what’s needed: cross-chain alliances, digital non-dominance charters, and global consultative structures that give the ecosystem a real voice in regulation
Just watched @EricLarch unveil The Bitcoin Society live. Huge vision. Bitcoin Treasury Company, Network Society, entrepreneurial club. A powerful push for sovereignty. Congrats Eric. At @GoodHiveLabs we share the same spirit. Freedom, community, creation. Excited for SKAL. 🚀
Centralized work belongs to the past…
And those who stick to the old model risk being left behind.
Today, top talents are looking for :
-More independence -More transparency -Fairer earnings
@GoodHiveLabs is already making it happen.
The real secret of successful freelancers?
It’s not talent… it’s the network.
A strong network means:
-Mentors who guide you.
-Peers who endorse you.
Mentors who guide you.

Rules are changing, no more platforms that don’t put the community first.
We’re shifting the game with @GoodHiveLabs !
Talents become true actors of the platform.

Join https://t.co/9th1UZPlUh !
Enough playing on platforms where value creators are the last to benefit.
The future should be written differently !
Talents should be more than just profiles, and recruiters rewarded for the value they bring.
On our platform https://t.co/9th1UZPTJP, we’re changing the game.
The future of work is broken.
Centralized platforms drain value from talent.
At https://t.co/wzIHUOejBM, we’re building a fair, decentralized & collaborative model.
Talent. Recruiter. One platform.

What if the most quietly optimistic people in the world… were Web3 devs?
They’re not escaping the system.
They’re rewriting it.
Not “everything will be fine.”
But: “We’ll code it better this time.”
At @GoodHiveLabs, we believe in them. 🐝 #Web3#AI#Builders
Today we released the Open Cap Table Protocol (OCP) whitepaper: the onchain infrastructure making equity programmable.
If you believe ownership should move like code, this is the spec 🧵
