Talking about DAOs is easier than contributing to DAOs.

Today, I met a talented engineer who is new to web3. She recently joined a DAO foundation as a full-time employee but was feeling isolated and unsure about how to access technical support for her work. It took me ~10 minutes to explain to her how DAO communities typically

Shoutout to everyone who joined my talk on Collaborative Finance (CoFi) the other day. Local communities are the backbone of this industry, and Moda Palas is definitely one of the strongest in Istanbul.

Dear friends, 𝗪𝗘 𝗡𝗘𝗘𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣!! 🚨🚨 There was an earthquake that shattered the lives of millions in #Turkey 🇹🇷 and #Syria 🇸🇾. At least 11,000 people died so far, millions are left homeless, and 10 cities are destroyed. The extent of this disaster is immense.

In web3 you are free. Don’t let anyone else convince you otherwise. Your talent, your vision, your story is needed across the space. Learn something new every day and improve the ones you like. Prosper yourself to empower others.

I am grateful to everyone who has come to Istanbul to explore the Web3 community, support local builders, and believe in the opportunities that developing countries like Turkey offer for strengthening the growth of our ecosystem.

Excited for what’s ahead with @inverternetwork - all those years of conviction is finally paying off. We are onboarding some of the top asset managers in the world to DeFi, starting with emerging market assets. Looks like we’ll be in London more often. iykyk 🕳️🐇

Don’t forget, in DAOs you don’t get to whine and dine when you see a problem. You get to fix it together with the people who genuinely care.

Please...start shilling projects with utility, a novel design approach to systems, and a vision to have a real-world impact.

DAOs have no excuse to treat people badly just because of their nationality. Every DAO that is rejecting/has fired a contributor just because they are from Iran is doing/has done a great disservice to the web3 community. Right your wrongs.

I think founders must support founders. If you are a founder in need of support (capital/network/experience) and you think we are mission-aligned, please, do reach out!

Planning for Devconnect, Istanbul, I realized I have high standards for speakers & attendees. My internal process; Riding narratives? - no thanks. Designed a ponzi? - not smart enough. Web3 cartel boss? - another day, boss. Sovereignty, equitability, and design! - welcome home.

Just wrapped up ETH Denver and now wrapping up the World Bank Digital Summit. Here are some initial insights: 1. Many of the WB employees have deep frustration with the organization's operations. They perceive it as slow, inefficient, and seriously in need for improvement. 2.
