@facebook
and I'd like to share a few notes
working with
@punk6529
is full of surprises, mostly pleasant.
Today I got off a flight (transiting thru LHR) and discovered 6529 sent me a 300 page treatise he wrote on commodities regulation.
I guess i shd review it before we mint that . . . will make a helluva Meme Card!
gm - terrific discussion at IBANet Paris global lawyers conference on legal issues in digital assets - will share later some of my prepared thoughts on NFT issues

Spending the morning at a
@varadubai
industry roundtable on real world asset tokenization.
Kudos to VARA for engaging listening and acting.
This is how we build.
gm frens - please vote for my proposal to present at SXSW2023 on "what are our rights in the metaverse" - I'll be trying to redpill noobs on why an open metaverse matters to them and why
#NFTs
are important.

13/ The author's cheerful conclusion completely misses the point "if you do find something to smile about in the metaverse, your digital avatar will smile along with you." - right - smile along as our personal data gets vacuumed into Meta's databases.
On an airplane from London to NYC . . . notwithstanding the miracle of flight, which our ancestors could barely have comprehended, virtually no one (including me) looks out the window - instead focused on the "miracle" of the TL
2/ first of all, there are many metaverses, perhaps the next journalist will visit others, they might also consider a visit to some others, including OM
The Emperor has no clothes.
British Airways lost my suitcase and I also have no clothes (besides the ones I flew in)
As Barbarossa says, this is how we build.
12/ Having extra data sensors aimed at one's face feels quite intrusive to me - plus it shares highly personal, possibly biometric data with Meta/Mark Z.
gm everyone, some travel coming up
will be in
Dubai 15-19 April (T2049 etc)
LA 5 - 9 May (Milken)
Austin 28 - 31 May (Consensus, Coin Center Dinner)
looking forward to seeing frens and 6529 and memes fam
10/ only a couple of dozen people in a room at a time - this seems really low (tho should presumably improve over time) - we had 300 per room in last week's

metaverse and NFT course.
1/ On TAP
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
✅ Three (T)
✅ Address (A)
✅ Protocol (P)
The way to *never* have your grail NFTs phished is to religiously TAP.
It is super-easy to do, you should all do it.
There is NO excuse not to do it! NONE!
gm to leap day February 29. Mrs Guardian and I ALMOST* got engaged on the 29th bc her mind is also dark that way. (There was strict prohibition on 14th).
A very good day for seizing memes and anything else as the opportunity presents rarely.
This was the 27th. Thanks
@Ftnft
11/ and I found the last paragraph of the article quite chilling: "Meta is working on making its headsets more appealing, and is expected to announce a sleeker, more expensive model ... next week . . . The new headset will have even more sensors aimed at the face"
5/ "Meta also asks Horizon users to consent to having their audio recorded. (If they refuse, they can’t talk in Horizon.) Audio is stored on a user’s headset, according to the company, and sent to Meta only if someone files a report . . .
It truly is a thrill and personal highlight to walk onto that
@Jeopardy
stage as Johnny Gilbert announces your name and a brief bio - in my case "a lawyer from La Jolla" (where I was living at the time).
Tonight's broadcast of Jeopardy! will conclude with a celebration of our 9000th episode, each and every one of which has been announced by the legendary Johnny Gilbert! Be sure to tune in!
gm - hey frens need a favor - am speaking at the Milken Conference in Abu Dhabi and I'd like to include some visuals or a slide onhe Goose "rememes" that we saw right after we bought the Goose
If someone could pull those into 1-2 slides I would be super grateful!!!
I wrote this in 2021 and was dead wrong. I am owning being dead wrong.
But if
@GaryGensler
had done this, the conversation today would be radically different.
8/ "Each of the more than 10,000 worlds that users have created in Horizon can accommodate only a couple dozen people at a time because of the computational power required to project a virtual shared space across multiple headsets. . .
My revealed preference is to go to Brussels and help secure the space for us to discuss our digital rights

24/ Only revealed preferences matter!
Your friends may say your app is cool, but if they don't open their wallet...
Brussels may be concerned about your Caucasian enclave coming under rocket attack, but if no soldiers are coming...
Getting this wrong is a disaster!
