My personal criticisms of crypto:
- record of individual behavior permits authoritarian surveillance apparatus
- rich get richer via info/access asymmetry & immutable generational wealth
- everything becomes a money game rather than enriching public life

- The gender gap in Cosmos is really disheartening and needs to be addressed. If you’re a woman, trans, or non-binary person at any stage of your career and want to find work in crypto, DM me and I’ll connect you to a team that’s hiring, or a woman in leadership where possible.
- Excited to share I've joined @skipprotocol as Head of Product & Strategy. The Skip team is world-class and in our discussions over the last months we become increasingly excited about how MEV solutions could make the Cosmos application experience 100x better.

- cosmos is starting to get fun
- been working on this paper for months and now finally seeing it come together it's actually fire
- Trump likes Bitcoin—great—but has anyone actually read his platform? rncplatform.donaldjtrump.com/?_gl=1*1g2jzl6… - expand executive power - disenfranchise minorities - fortify police state - criminalize immigration - eradicate Gaza - roll back civil liberties - unwind environmental protections 😵💫
- Though prop 82 failed, ATOM 2.0 fundamentally changed the Cosmos Hub narrative & I’m proud of that. If nothing else, I hope this kernel of 2.0 is carried forward: that the purpose of the Hub is to help other sovereign chains thrive.
- the metaverse is a millennial delusion that presupposes we want identity to be fixed across contexts
- The squad is *so* back. In our latest @otherinternet__ essay @tobyshorin @lottiland and I challenge the possibilities and limits of crypto as an institutional technology. We ask what a protocol can do, and finally answer "what is a DAO?" (sort of)
- we have four years to irrevocably deploy strongly encrypted money
