Some quick privacy chats from @therollupco during DeFi day last week @zama at youtube.com/watch?v=IKQCRy… @maplefinance at youtube.com/watch?v=IKQCRy…

Normal humans don’t care about infrastructure. They care about moments where their life is blocked. “I have value, but I can’t use it when I need it.”

every lending vault on-chain right now is visible to liquidation bots. every position. every threshold. every wallet. we're building the version where it isn't.

South Africa has something most countries don't: regulatory maturity and the patience to get this right. The countries that rushed blockchain regulation and CBDCs are learning expensive lessons now and we've seen this through a number of use cases in Africa already. I'll be back at TechCon tomorrow 10h00 for the ministers keynote & a roundtable on security, privacy & public trust. Come say hi if you're around.

Yesterday at TechCon 🔥 Here’s what I covered in my talk: Policy is a conversation. Implementation is a confrontation with reality. And the gap between the two is where most blockchain infrastructure projects quietly die.

One of my favourite weekly reads in web3 right now (Research, tools, regulation and cypherpunk energy) news.web3privacy.info It's been really useful to help me stay up to date and cut through the signal-to-noise ratio you usually encounter in the space. @web3privacy

"Arise, you have nothing to lose but your barbed wire fences!"

@get_para @eco @aave Love this. “Approve everything forever” was always a slightly unhinged design choice 😅 Scoped permissions make more sense and I can’t wait to see implemented more.

1/ Announcing Transaction Permissions ✴️ We brought the best of modern authentication to onchain approvals Cryptographically scoped to an app, customizable, and built for real fintechs and apps In partnership with @eco and @aave

Feels like the stack is finally maturing: permissions → execution → settlement More control at the edges, more precision in the middle. Nice work @get_para 👏

just happy to be here. grateful to wake up and be interested and excited about our work.
