Setup @phantom to experiment with Solana for 1st time. Phantom is ๐ŸคŒ (0x mafia ftw) Tested out @wormholecrypto : - sent in a token from my @0xPolygon wallet. - received the wrapped version on @solana . - used @Saber_HQ to swap to native version of token. Fast. What next?

ERC1155 is a new Ethereum token standard that I expect to become widespread in the next 6 months. It allows an unlimited number of digital asset ledgers to be maintained within a single contract. Ideal for game items, debt assets, and prediction markets.

1) Some thoughts on tokens. You can't force value into a token. Period. Grafting artificial incentives onto a token (velocity sinks or mint/burn schemes) inherently adds friction (more gas per trade) to the detriment of users.

Eventually every asset will go on-chain, just like every form of media has gone online. So by 2030-2040 your portfolio may be 100% crypto. Question is how long it takes people to realize this. Already in progress for digital gold, art, loans, derivatives, stocks, etc.

To create a tokenized world where all value can flow freely we have to permanently drive exchange margins to zero, no way around it

0x isn't a stateless protocol. It isn't obvious unless you write smart contracts. State: 1) allowances for AssetProxies 2) access controls b/w Exchange, AssetProxies, & Governance module 3) external contracts that interact with 0x DYOR

Trying to govern a stateless protocol is like trying to govern an idea. You can't. dApp governance tokens trying to govern a stateless protocol have no value because of the ease of forks. Only the governance tokens which govern deposited capital are valuable (eg: REP, MKR).

The decentralized message-passing network for @0xProject is 0x Mesh: It's permissionless + censorship-resistant, it's been live for months, it runs in the browser, and it has become the default conduit for 0x liquidity:

"Serverless" doesn't have to mean "everything on-chain". Non-blockchain decentralized message-passing networks (eg. as used by @0xProject @ethstatus ) can be a very valuable complement to blockchains, and offer important efficiencies in areas where global consensus is not required

This "research institute" is representing that only 0.04% of US tax filers reported crypto gains/losses in 2018 based on a sample of 250k users who filed their taxes through @creditkarma ... @openmarkets you are spreading misinformation. Do better.

Because @USTreasury doesnโ€™t have proper tools to ensure tax compliance across all crypto market actors, the burden of tax reporting is falling on individuals. And companies are popping up to โ€œgenerate tax formsโ€ for individual investorsโ€ฆ who they charge EXCESSIVE amounts.

Account abstraction is long overdue. Challenging to offer a seamless UX without it (user EOA pays gas, sets allowances, can't batch function calls). We spent months getting around these constraints with @RobinhoodApp team for their new self-custody crypto wallet๐Ÿ‘€

The good news is that we're narrowing down toward an actual path for account abstraction, something we've always wanted but have not managed to actually have! And with the "carrot" of cost savings in rollups with signature aggregation, there's finally an incentive to adopt it.

"Smart contract" is the term used to help laymen understand the concept of a state machine. Ethereum smart contracts are tiny state machines that can be strung together to create complex systems. Sometimes these systems handle or manipulate digital assets.

Do you rent an apartment? Would you sign a rental contract that allows your landlord to arbitrarily โ€œupgradeโ€ the contract to insert any changes theyโ€™d like? If not, why are you OK with trusting smart contracts that have an โ€œupgradeability clauseโ€?

Contrarian thought of the day: Plasma has become a brand. Despite the fact that it is early stage research, the vitalik/poon/$OMG affiliation has captured the broader community's attention. There are other compelling approaches to scaling out there.

Lots of discussion about oracles but none that include Augur's decentralized oracle: a swarm of humans with financial incentives (REP ownership) that cause them to converge on objective reality*. *Or not, causing REP to fork into two, each staking a different version of the past

Random crypto startup idea: - Use @DharmaProtocol to tokenize Income sharing agreements (ISAs). - Create a @0xProject relayer that allows these ISAs to be liquid and globally accessible. - Allow perverse incentives to drive humanity down a dark path.

Achievement unlocked: get schooled by @NickSzabo4 on the definition of "smart contract," a term he invented ๐Ÿ˜ณ maybe a single-purpose Ethereum smart contract that enforces a simple obligation is comparable to a legal contract, but that's poor system design IMO.

No. We already have several words for that: "program." Also "software". Or "dApp" if it's distributed. You need not and should not abuse the phrase "smart contracts" to refer to programs that neither perform obligations, verify such performance, nor control assets.
