Lots of discussion lately on "web3" Quotes here are very purposeful bc no one really *knows* what "web3" means. If anyone tells you they do, run... However, in light of @cobie 's Web3 post, and in classic VC fashion, here are some thoughts on web3...

Soon, wherever I go my signatures become my actions, my actions become my credentials, my credentials become my reputation. Constantly searching for teams developing new use cases for cryptographic signatures. 🧵Here’s 5 food-for-thought articles…

11/ In web3, I use cryptographic signatures. Hard stop. These signatures prove that I attest to data or an action in the form of a transaction.

There's incredibly strong PMF for crypto in capital formation. I am thrilled to see the resurrection of ICOs... But dear god, we need a better name.

if we can successfully bring back icos, we'll have less memecoin trading & increase chances of building useful apps by an order of magnitude. majority of memecoin trading is b/c most tokens these days are unappealing to retail with low float & unlocks. meme pvp better ev.

Like many others, I share this feeling @0xdoug describes. We need alternative solutions for scale, now. ————— Here's what @nil_foundation is doing to address these issue using Problem/Proposed Solution (P/PS). Btw - I recommend this dead simple decision making framework for

Being in Ethereum and watching the rollup centric roadmap constantly flounder and pivot on the economics is like being mid air on a charter flight, and mid air the pilot tells you the main airport on the islands been closed and he’s going to land on this new airstrip. And you

TLDR Emmanuel is Polynya All jokes aside I really enjoyed this conversation with Emmanuel. I generally agree with his view that we need to put social pressure on L2s to decentralization but warn against exerting too much pressure. There’s lots of valid L2 designs and we should

Had fun talking L2 decentralization w/ @avizurlo today! L2 decentralization is more than fodder for ecosystem wars and "rollup is a multisig" memes; it's the only way we ensure Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap delivers on its promise of scaling without compromises. This

Great to see funding available for early stage projects on Urbit - a huge step forward for the ecosystem. A few ideas if you're looking for inspiration...

I think this is exactly why it’s coming back - because Rollups + ZK is *not* sharding. At least not yet. The whole notion that rollups horizontally scale is a false pretense. *All* rollups are independent systems, isolated state machines. The app-specific rollup narrative has

@GuthL I don't think it will come back in the L1 yet. Rollups + ZK in some way is sharding.

zkSharding is the ultimate network extension to Ethereum. It is the original scaling vision, reinvigorated. Just as we are cryptomaximalists, reinvigorated. @nil_foundation
