Realizing the promise of #web3, or bust. #Crypto Operator, Advisor, Strategist. Views my own. #Blockspace is a commodity. The #EVM is a business moat, for now.
1/25 Let's talk about #curvewars#vetokenomics and the language of #bribes. The #web3 tech stack enables the innovative capability to price the right to authority over discretion in projects on either a permanent, or a temporary basis.
The whole point of DeFi is that “the team” shouldn’t be able to change the rules without warning.
(This is not a subtweet about one project, it’s a statement about a lot of projects)
@el33th4xor@adamscochran On some level I don’t care about the specifics of the politics, but it’s essential to work from the actual facts if the politics are to ever mean anything real
@el33th4xor@adamscochran FYI Minutes 1:31 - Biden’s evening address referenced the earlier afternoon address but didn’t explicitly restate every single of the bullet points

@lex_node CB PM have a very functionalist “state of the tech” response - UTXO UX vs EVM UX - feels very current given other UX conversations across the space
1/ Hey folks, I’m the product lead for Coinbase Commerce and want to share some thoughts on how the product is evolving, why we’ve made these changes, and clarify what it means for our asset support strategy moving forward. 👇
@NeerajKA “The telephone game” inherently corrupts information as it passes from person to person, even when the original info is pristine.
Layer “the telephone game” you describe on top of original sources that are themselves corrupted lies and the end result is significantly compounded
1/ Here’s my biweekly update on the crypto policy front in DC. With several hearings taking place on the Hill this week on illicit finance, I want to focus on some of the narratives that need correcting. 📜
@lex_node@testinprodcap It might not be a terrible idea for key participants in the eth ecosystem to red team an investigation + remediation “process” where eth loses liveness.
Each roll up and DA provider should probably also run a few drills for the same locally other own environment.
Engineers from across the ecosystem are investigating an outage on mainnet-beta. This thread will be updated as more information becomes available https://t.co/rfeioQ6BG9
@lex_node It’s less luddism & more a very flat, non interdisciplinary internal model of the world. KYC is the wrong tool & part of the wrong strategy to try to maintain compute dominance. They lack the skills + knowledge to understand and default to simple brute force as security theater.
Inscriptions reveal failures in
Fee market design + Canonical transaction design
that enable what is essentially metadata to outcompete canonical transactions intended to be regulated by price w/in protocols
This effectively DoS-es canonically formed transactions & thus use.
Had an incredible time chatting with Commissioner @HesterPeirce! We spoke about the SEC's endgame for crypto regulation, ways the industry can lean in to help commissioners and staff develop better regulatory policy, and the Commissioner's (hopefully distant) future beekeeping aspirations!
Commissioner Peirce has been a sincere and tireless advocate for clarity and fairness in regulatory frameworks for many industries, crypto included. We are so thankful for her masterful work on this front and hope to continue collaborating with her and other regulators in the years to come.
This is how a long-term winner behaves.
Everyone in crypto and tech needs this attitude
"Solana doesn’t deserve it yet. Ethereum is much further along its roadmap. Has 4 independent client implementations, and a deep, deep, deep bench of researchers."

No one says “wow I loathe those optimism people” despite the fact they are literally still figuring out their fundamental tech.
There is a lesson in this, particularly during difficult times.
Avax ecosystem folks must make an effort to be like-able. Treat others such that they *want* to work w/ you b/c of the kind of person you are. Earn deep respect through relationships. Then be correct & crush the execution.
