@AugustoBackes Moro na Europa e concordo 100% Oportunidade demais melhorar serviço, vamos a isso.

Os Europeus no geral tem muito a aprender com os Brasileiros sobre atendimento, cordialidade e respeito ao proximo. Metade das vezes sou bem atendido e outra metade das vezes o atendimento é uma merda. Falta empatia com o próximo

@LeemoXD Yea… but even for those that do not accept crypto we already have apps to make them receive on fiat via a self-custody wallet (of course someone is doing the “off ramp “, but not the crypto user).

You can pay for pretty much anything in LATAM with crypto. Some of my favourites so far: - taxi after we accidentally got in the wrong Uber - Snus/Zyns - Legal documents Seems the average person here is fairly competent and at least understands the basics. UK needs to catch up.

@ZoeCatherineF Still in Rio de Janeiro?

Gonna tell my grandkids this is where I built my empire (Dive bar in Brazilian Favela)

Has Polkadot’s governance always been a Temporary Autonomous Zone (Hakim Bey)? TAZs are, by nature, meant to transform and eventually end. Anicca, anicca.

After months of intense work, our @Polkadot smart contract platform "Revive" is entering its final release phase. We’re excited to share a detailed status update and concrete release dates here: forum.polkadot.network/t/revive-smart…

@ZoeCatherineF @danicuki 😃 hope you enjoy it. Must go: “Beco do Batman”.

@danicuki I've been misspelling all the cities like a true gringa. Have some time today so I may check out, thanks!

This office in São Paolo is far too clean for me

@alice_und_bob @johnrhodelb @SunsetLabsBD @Polkadot @paritytech @GldnCalf @PolkadotEspanol Let's have a call?

@johnrhodelb @SunsetLabsBD @Polkadot @paritytech @GldnCalf @PolkadotEspanol Very nice! Congrats again!

The @SunsetLabsBD Closes partnership and cooperation with Inatel! With @Polkadot Inatel is one of the most important institutes in Brazil. It is the national telecommunications entity of Brazil and they will enter the blockchain world. Every valid technological implementation of the telecom area in Brazil goes through Inatel! Great move, my friends inatel.br/noticias/inate… @Web3foundation @Zendetta @BillLaboon @gavofyork @gusmaze @gabekoin

@PolkadotAvatars @Web3foundation @Polkadot 👏👏👏

Ya comenzó @Polkadotsub0 A full de gente y experiencias

Things you can find at sub0 this year that you won't find at a normal conference: - tattoo studio - tiki beach bar - esports arena - nail salon - ballpit - furry wall room - merch fashion store

The nature of power is centralize. Web3 must be a permanent movement. Without friction, water can't become air. The obstacle is the way. Nature, and it's systems, accumulate and release. There is wisdom on this. And like moths drawn to the light, we move toward what we cannot yet understand. What light web3 products can create?

"Too little, too late." There are ZERO Web3 products out there today that have achieved widespread adoption. You have bits of maturing FinTech TradFI rails, but spoiler alert, wall street will not share their money with you. True Web3 apps that give you control back over the internet? Hasn't happened. Most humans are getting caged as worker drones for a machine that feeds them dopamine and extracts their life force. Have you seen any Web3 products gaining traction that stand against that tendency? No. It is not too late, it hasn't even started.

Ready for November❓ A month of pure crypto in Buenos Aires!🎉 But it's not all conferences 🤓 Here's a basic sheet with some places to visit. It includes museums, walks and tango💯. All neighborhoods have restaurants and bars where you can stop and enjoy delicious food and drinks. #gid=0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… Comment to include other places and activities.

Hey @LVweb3 just opened a PR to contribute with Polkadot Ecosystem tools at @PolkadotAtlas github.com/dablockdao/pol…

@Polkadot Lisbon!
