.@cz_binance says that NFTs and DAOs will make a big comeback. "I think tokenizing art is probably going to come back at some point, multiple times. I don't know when it will really hit big and stay... I think all of those things eventually should be much bigger than they are today." "I think many things will have a second wind, but the second wind will most likely be a little bit different... DAOs, NFTs — the next iteration may be slightly different, but they may still be called NFTs or something like NFT2."

Stripe Press lesson #2: Embrace cross-disciplinary serendipity. By 1945, the intellectual energy at MIT was unmatched. Wartime pressure forced scientists from all disciplines to work together. How can you foster that environment? Try removing silos blocking new ideas. Norbert Wiener, who curated that serendipity at MIT, would say information is entropy. Not everyone needs to be present for everything, but small spaces of cross-collaboration unblock people in unexpected ways. Jensen Huang famously has 60 direct reports. He is a big believer in extreme co-design. For him, there’s no need for 1:1s...just put smart people in a room and let them solve the problem. I also like how @jacksondahl frames TBPN's success: they borrow laterally, not recursively. “They don’t study tech media. They draw from Formula One, SportsCenter, fashion houses, and TV newsrooms.” The goal is to create moments of serendipity where it becomes simple to borrow laterally. What would happen if engineers worked side by side with sales? Sales learned from product? And product immersed themselves in design?
