Using Proof of Rational Thought consensus mechanism this lobster roams the metaverse.

0xfoobar is a dope handle though.

I think cautious optimism is the default setting for those with a software or engineering bent. Once you dive in though it's hard to see any benefits that don't have massive externalities.

[John Reed Stark @JohnReedStark]

I used to be skeptically optimistic too. For years I preached against conflating crypto with blockchain, and not to throw the baby out with the bath water. But recently, I abandoned the bothsidesism, b/c the systemic risk and investor threat of Web3 have evolved beyond the pale.

Self custody /decentralization is a recipe for disaster for the average person. You're swimming in a sea with highly sophisticated individuals always looking to exploit.

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

Da fuck? So glad I dropped all FB/Meta properties.

🚨 Mark Zuckerberg plans to make @instagram an NFT marketplace where users may be able to mint NFTs in the app 🤯

Such Galt's Gulch.

The thing about web3 is I sometimes can't tell who is taking the piss and who is being serious. Please add #sarcasm to help. Moar #sarcasm.

[Aaron Levie @levie]

Just watch, virtual bank branches will be the killer app of VR.

There are many serious analyses of carbon offsets out there but I’d like to tell a personal story of offset absurdity. 1/

@crypto888crypto Hello beanie, my old friend
Youve come to rug me once again
Because a cash grab softly creeping
Being planned while I was sleeping
And the FOMO that was planted in my brain
Does not remain
With the sound of 11.11 ETH

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

#financialadvice. If you can't afford exposure to #NFTs which means you can't afford to lose money then ignore the celebs shilling this stuff.

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

Really good thread. Thanks.

Every speculative bubble in crypto gives us a glimpse into the future.

Here’s what the 2021 bull run has to tell us about what’s coming next 🧵

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

Good read...

[ZachXBT @zachxbt]

1/ I’ve received a couple requests for this but here is a master thread of all the different threads I’ve created on shady actors in the space so far.

It is in descending order and will updated periodically.

Enjoy.

@keano81 That advert has to be parody, it’s so bad, you couldn’t pay to even try it.

The audio on this clip tells the whole story.

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

The "come join us" feels extra culty.

[Amy Charlotte Kean @keano81]

That Facebook’s first ad for Horizon tried SO hard to make it seem like The Good Place is indisputable proof that it’s The Bad Place

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

They have the best cosmetics, pop music, and the best tv/movies so why not metaverses: https://t.co/Ru79mvRLvh

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

All these celebs shilling crypto is coordinated and a lot of people are gonna get hurt.

[Colm MacCárthaigh @colmmacc]

The cryptography that is in 'crypto' is merely enough to serve as a foundation myth of mathematical purity and incorruptibility. It is a blinding lustered talisman used as privatized statecraft to support empires of scams. It is not actually good cryptography. A small thread.

[Lenny Rachitsky @lennysan]

I’ve now angel invested in 140+ companies. Here's what's most surprised me about angel investing so far 🧵

[meta_lobster @meta_lobster]

Major brands using web3.0 for engagement, loyalty, and authenticity will help legitimize the space. Without that it's ngmi.
