    Sharing this internal "History of 0x" presentation in case it might be helpful for other web3 builders. It covers: - Our almost 8 year voyage through the DEX idea maze, building on top of Ethereum. - Our mission and motivations, failures and learnings. - Historical context

    This is probably a good time to remind everyone that 0x is a highly experimental technology that is built on top of another piece of highly experimental technology.

    Setup @phantom to experiment with Solana for 1st time. Phantom is 🤌 (0x mafia ftw) Tested out @wormholecrypto: - sent in a token from my @0xPolygon wallet. - received the wrapped version on @solana. - used @Saber_HQ to swap to native version of token. Fast. What next?

    Support for ERC721 and ERC1155 tokens will be landing in @0xProject v4 early next year. Excited for many reasons: - gas efficiency - built w marketplaces & creators in mind - unique features baked-in day 1 - rollout to 8 EVM blockchains Team to share more soon 🙂

    1) PSA to Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google and AirBnb employees: blockchains will completely reshape human civilization over the next 1-2 decades. Simply put, there is no other industry where your contributions will have greater impact.
    The 0x team is looking for passionate engineers (frontend/backend/FS) to help us build a more transparent and equitable financial system. Please let that talented crypto-curious friend of yours know we are happy to chat 🙂 angel.co/0xproject

    ERC1155 is a new Ethereum token standard that I expect to become widespread in the next 6 months. It allows an unlimited number of digital asset ledgers to be maintained within a single contract. Ideal for game items, debt assets, and prediction markets. github.com/ethereum/EIPs/…

    1) Some thoughts on tokens. You can't force value into a token. Period. Grafting artificial incentives onto a token (velocity sinks or mint/burn schemes) inherently adds friction (more gas per trade) to the detriment of users.
    I strongly believe the @0xProject community should come together and re-architect the ZRX token model by the end of the year. This proposal by @sendwyre is a step in the right direction and I'd love to see alternative proposals as well. medium.com/wyre-capital/p…

    1) 0x protocol v3 (@0xProject) is packed with innovative features for NFT markets and unlocks interesting use cases across gaming, defi, art, and beyond. These features were ahead of their time, but perhaps the latest wave of NFT devs will find them useful...

    The first decentralized organizations with vast financial resources will emerge in the next 12 months. Internet communities with checkbooks... It's going to be a shitshow full of epic fails, bizarre capital inefficient decisions, top notch memes + a few fascinating successes.

    3) You don't need to be a technologist to enter the industry. We need problem solvers, product builders, designers, operators, organizers, writers and more. Don't be intimidated. No one in this industry knows what they are doing. You have an opportunity to help us figure it out.

    1) Most exciting governance experiment in the crypto space: tokenized /r/ethtrader subreddit karma called $DONUTS. - weren't intended to be tokenized - earn via upvoted content, 2M minted/week - use to purchase profile badges - signal rep - vote on polls - set banner image

    Congrats to the @Uniswap team on shipping v3! A diversity of liquidity provision strategies is healthy for DEX markets and grows the pie 🥧

    All forms of value will end up tokenized on public blockchains
