Sitting in a cafe in Malaysia. Looked across the room. Recognized a video playing on a stranger's laptop. Because I made it. I walked over. Asked whose laptop it was. His friend's company. Airbound. Their launch film. You spend years making work behind a screen. You rarely get to see it in the wild. 4,000 km from home, on a stranger's screen, in a country I'd never been to. Your work is always speaking for you. Even when you're not in the room. This is what I saw

💸 Today I invested in a new thing: Ethereum is essentially a public spreadsheet with every transaction being visible for everyone forever But that makes it impossible to use for banks because it's not private. Imagine you buy something and everyone in the entire world can see it? That'd be never be accepted So my friend @oskarth has been working on a new thing called @eth_systems that lets banks use Ethereum but while keeping transactions private Before this he was working for 10 years on stuff like zk-SNARK (math tricks that let you prove something is true without revealing the details) and advising the Ethereum Foundation, he's the most high IQ person I know, so when he started something that's for-profit (after lots of non-profit work) I asked to invest immediately YC always taught me to invest in people not companies, the companies (and product) can change (and should) and it can pivot into lots of other things, but if you trust the person you can estimate a higher likelihood of it (and your investment) working out If you like to see what they will make, follow @eth_systems 😊😊😊

Yesterday was my last day at the Ethereum Foundation. Today we are launching EthSystems. We build confidential systems for institutional Ethereum. I've spent close to a decade building privacy infrastructure in crypto: p2p messaging at @ethstatus, developing Waku protocols at Vac (both now part of @logos_network), mobile proving tooling with @zkmopro, teaching zero-knowledge proofs with my zkintro primer, and advising @ethereumfndn on privacy and access layer strategy. Most of that was aimed at individuals. The past year at EF's Institutional Privacy Task Force (IPTF) we've been looking at privacy for institutions. On the surface this might seem different, but there are a lot of similarities. There's also a very strong market need for it, and the timing is right. I've written in the past about the tension and overlap between cypherpunks and institutions. Twitter is not exactly the best medium for nuance, but right now we are at a sensitive point in time: the defaults for the next generation of financial infrastructure are being set, with or without us. I believe we need cypherpunks in the room when that happens. Excited to start @eth_systems together with my co-founder @motypes and @_rymnc as part of the founding team. See quoted announcement thread for more details. x.com/eth_systems/st…

@niran7 Exactly, a lot of companies still play safe and use what has already worked for them or others in past. But I’ve noticed that changing now. Most of my recent clients actually wants to experiment and go crazy instead of just using the template or older ideas.

@madvortex_ Agreed, it needs company brand identity and messaging to be unique and memorable to them

@CNPYNetwork The “start here” layer matters a lot for networks like this. If people understand what to do in the first few minutes, participation becomes much easier. Especially when the product is community built chains, the onboarding story is almost as important as the tech itself.

the typical round announcement video post is so saturated with the same clips & audio that it's gotten hard to tell what a company's mission or product is why put slop on the timeline when you have an opportunity to get people excited about joining or funding your mission??

Man this shii crazzy. Asked @heyclicky by @FarzaTV to pull all the custom settings from a 3D filament supplier & then making a custom prompt for codex on Sol 5.6 medium to make presets for EACH type in less than 15 mins. This on a good day would've taken me atleast a day learning and doing it all from scratch. This video isn't sped up.
