@humanode_io I wish I get into engineering chamber one day...

In Humanode's governance, you can have 900 marketers and 50 developers. Only those 50 developers vote on protocol changes. The marketers don't touch it. Specialization chambers - people who don't know, don't vote. This sounds obvious, but look around at crypto governance. Every token holder votes on every decision regardless of whether they understand the code, the economics, or the consequences. While those who do understand them don't vote - they have no tokens, right?

@hosseeb @masonnystrom We still think it matters. Learn Humanode.

The line "decentralization doesn't matter" is getting repeated more and more these days. I recently broke out into debate on-stage with @masonnystrom about why decentralization was essential to prediction markets existing at all. It got heated. Worth the 5 minutes:

Recorded a podcast with my favourite economist @ProfSteveKeen If you do not know who he is get the best insights from his studies in 30 min! How fiat money actually works, how to fix proverty, and remake the economy without using false theories of textbooks.

@DefiIgnas Humanode is the hope

DAOs are truly dying… - multiple DAOs are centralizing - DAO delegates leaving as incentives to participate also disappearing And now key governance infrastructure projects shutting down There is hope .. unless Snapshot also shuts down.

@dankrad Congrats!

Tempo mainnet is live. Agentic payments are already running. Start building on Tempo!

@nansen_ai @solana @HyperliquidX Is it free?

2/ With this, your agent has an onchain lens, answering question like: "What tokens are smart traders accumulating on @solana right now?" "What are crypto funds buying vs selling this week?" "Which Smart Traders are active on @HyperliquidX perps today?" Filter by label: Funds, 30-day top performers, 90-day, 180-day. The signal gets sharper the more specific you get. Access the skill here: nsn.ai/cli-skills Give your agents smart money tracking: nsn.ai/agents

Your @openclaw can watch what the best traders in crypto are buying and selling. In real time. The 𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐧-𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭-𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 CLI skill gives agents access to netflows, DEX trades, holdings, and perp positions. One CLI command. Real-time Smart Money flows.

@idiom_bytes @atmoio Oh I forgot it was always mandatory

@tech_mingler @atmoio Don't you have to be?

AI is making CEOs delusional

Actually good news from regulators!

@RyanSAdams @lepsoe @HesterPeirce we love you!

THEY DID IT. The SEC and CFTC just dropped a landmark document that officially classifies crypto assets. They're actually telling us which crypto assets are securities and which ones aren't - by name! THIS IS SOMETHING GENSLER REFUSED TO DO (he focused on prosecuting crypto out of existence) This rule doc gives crypto many of the benefits of the clarity bill - it lifts us out of the gray market - it gives every asset a path. It's almost like the Clarity act just passed by way of regulator. (of course, the actual clarity act will harden all this into legislation and make it irreversible in the event we get another Gensler, we still want it) This rule says there's 5 categories for crypto assets: 1) Digital Commodities - assets tied to a functional, decentralized crypto system (e.g., BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, DOGE). Not securities. (yes, they name them on page 14) 2) Digital Collectibles - NFTs, meme coins, artwork tokens, in-game items. Not securities (fractionalized collectibles may be an exception). 3) Digital Tools - membership tokens, credentials, domain names (e.g., ENS). Not securities. 4) Stablecoins - payment stablecoins under the GENIUS Act are not securities. Other stablecoins, it depends. 5) Digital Securities - tokenized versions of traditional securities. Like tokenized stocks. Always securities. Amazing! This makes so much sense I can't believe it's coming from a regulator. No more enforcement threats to Ethereum developers and crypto exchanges. How about the Howey test? More common sense! If an issuer makes specific promises of managerial efforts from which buyers expect profits, the offering is a security until those promises are fulfilled. Then it's a commodity. The asset itself was never the security, the deal around it was. (E.g. XRP was a security pre launch, became a commodity after). How about stuff like staking and mining? Mining? Not a securities transaction. Staking? Also not a securities transaction, that includes custodial and liquid staking even with LSTs! How about wrapping BTC? Not a securities transaction. Airdrops? NOT SECURITIES. NO MORE GEO BANS PROTECTING AMERICANS from free airdrops. Remember this is a joint doc from the SEC and CFTC, They're actually cooperating on this, no internal strife, this is binding to both. SEC regulates $80-100 trillion assets CFTC regulates $5-10 trillion assets Both of the world's largest capital markets are showing us that crypto assets are here to stay and they're welcome alongside traditional assets. Every country will follow. This is the biggest move toward legitimacy I've seen in all my time in crypto. Maybe bigger than the genius act since is covers all crypto assets. Well done @MichaelSelig and @SECPaulSAtkins. And especially well done to the indefatigable @HesterPeirce. Her fingerprints are all over this, couldn't have happened without her eight years of principles-based curiosity.

@idiom_bytes @atmoio Delusional?

@tech_mingler @atmoio I take my comment back. I am the CEO now.

There are three productive uses of credit. 1. Households buying things they can't afford from cashflow alone. 2. Working capital for companies that need to pay suppliers before revenue comes in. 3. Funding for entrepreneurs. That's it. When credit starts being used to inflate asset prices instead - houses, stocks, tokens - it becomes destructive. You're increasing prices without increasing the capacity to service the debt that drove those prices up. The 2000s housing bubble was credit being used for destruction on a national scale. Most DeFi lending falls into the same category if we're honest about it.

TLDR There is no inner self, you're chasing an imaginary concept, the end.

@naiivememe One human one node

You meet Vitalik, only 3 words, what would you say to him ?

@idiom_bytes @atmoio Haha! Like CEO’s dont need context at all

@atmoio the thing i find the most funny is that the "CEO agent" will be one of the lowest-token-consumption agents across any autonomous org meanwhile people think that software engineers will be the ones who lose their jobs

@atmoio Thanks for pointing to bs

@telebizio What's the target use cases? BD? Fundraising? Updating partners? All of it?:)

@davidsenra @leashless @pmarca I thought I had a problem. It’s the opposite!

Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.
