@brian_armstrong Steady lads..

1/ First off, I have a lot of sympathy for everyone involved in the current situation with FTX - it's stressful any time there is potential for customer loss.

@brian_armstrong @LefterisJP @LidoFinance @coinbase @krakenfx @stakedus @BitcoinSuisseAG I think?

@LefterisJP @LidoFinance @coinbase @krakenfx @stakedus @BitcoinSuisseAG It's a hypothetical we hopefully won't actually face. But if we did we'd go with B i think. Got to focus on the bigger picture. There may be some better option (C) or a legal challenge as well that could help reach a better outcome.

Question for @LidoFinance, @coinbase, @krakenfx, @stakedus, @BitcoinSuisseAG If regulators ask you to censor at the #ethereum protocol level with your validators will you: A) Comply and censor at protocol level B) Shut down the staking service and preserve network integrity

@GergelyOrosz @smsunarto The result of this is that tech startups avoid going public as a long as they can and non-accredited investors can’t fully participate in the upside of one of the biggest economic shifts in the past century.

@smsunarto No one said that TradFi is perfect, but it has ~100 years of lessons in regulation. Every such incident adds more regulation. The Sarbanes–Oxley Act was drafted as a result of this. Also: Enron execs were imprisoned, and their auditor (Arthur Andersen) lost all their business.

A reason I am anti "web3" is that the unregulated nature of this space means that non-accredited investors (aka people who are not rich) put money they cannot afford to lose. Then lose it in schemes that collapse, enriching founders & VCs in the process. People like these:

@GergelyOrosz While at the same time stringent regulations made them lose out on a big part of the tech boom in the past decade while VCs and tech insiders made most of the money. There is a reason why so many participated in the crypto bubble.

@DaanCrypto Yo bro not that whackoff shit again

$BTC Some people want $20K, some want $40K... I present two "what if" scenario's for the Summer. Explanation in the tweets below. Scenario 1:

🌈 wants anyone to be able to register a .eth name at any time. coming v soon.

Ok - I haven't been in the NFT game at all yet - I want to set up a public address. What's the best wallet for pure ERC20 NFT use? Mobile ideal.

From many conversations: Young crypto investors don’t want to invest in anything tied to physical things. It caps upside. Older real estate investors don’t want to invest in anything not tied to physical things. It limits downside. A paradigm shift is happening in investing.

The superpower of React Native is writing your client apps across web, iOS, and Android in TypeScript + React and sharing all the non-UI code. It's vastly more efficient than triplicate impls. For most products, it's an absurd blunder to not do this.

Why I'm excited for web3 mobile in 2022: gaby.mirror.xyz/h32wmagPoBPR4T…

No unpopularity, no arbitrage.

"I still can't believe that this is the protest that would prove every Bitcoin crank a prophet. And for me to have to slice a piece of humble pie, and admit that I was wrong on crypto's fundamental necessity in Western democracies." world.hey.com/dhh/i-was-wron…

My goal is simple - eradicate poverty. Web3 technologies represent the biggest anti-poverty opportunity of our time. Millions of lives are being transformed and creators empowered by new ways to exchange and generate value on the blockchain. It’s bottom-up not top-down.

@sriramk The enormous payoff from decentralization and permissionless innovation. I cannot believe more people don't understand this. It's so obvious.

@themindscourge Quite high, actually? Two clear consequences of COVID: (1) a sudden massive acceleration of technology adoption, and (2) a sudden productivity-enhancing reorganization of business activity. Both bullish for economic growth in the decade.

@ASvanevik @a16z Can you shill them my Sukon Tokens?

Huge benefit of being an @a16z portfolio company: The a16z CEOs mailing list. Founders at all stages asking each other for input, figuring out how to run a company. 100x more useful than any book on entrepreneurship.

@blockworks It’s really over innit

🚨Wells Fargo: Crypto could soon enter an inflection point of hyper-adoption

@icebergy Wait what happened?

If your canceled i would recommend never doing a twitter space

Built an NFT security gate prototype. The gate can verify if you own a specific NFT. This demo shows @pixereum NFT holders can go through the gate.

Built a prototype of a car-sharing system with NFT (ENS). This system verifies if you have an ownership of @ensdomains (In this example, car1.sharedao.eth), and then unlocks a car door.
