Last week’s @POTUS Exec Order demonstrates the US government recognizes the importance of web3 in retaining our country’s technological leadership and of striking the innovation/risk balance. It’s a promising start.

Great oped on memecoins by @cdixon .

I wrote an oped in @FT . My goal isn't to defend or to diminish memecoins. It’s to point out the backward incentives of a regulatory regime in the US that lets only memecoins thrive — while companies and tokens with more productive uses face hurdles.

🚨[new post] I wrote a little piece on how after many years of stasis and a mono culture, we are now in a period of rapid social media change - and one that is going to lead to more innovation , credibly neutral and open mechanisms and decentralization.
