super exciting to be part of these early days of the blockchain revolution
It was so enlightening to chat with @BrettFrischmann on this week's @thegrftfpodcast. We discuss how technology is re-engineering humanity, including: (20:19) how techno-social engineering works (25:20) the Human Focused Turing Test & how to detect if you’re becoming a machine…

Launching a token can be as easy as sending an email. Unlocking their potential as a new digital primitive and bringing them to market is much harder. I’ve worked with dozens of founders tackling this challenge and am now releasing a 3-part playbook written for everyone. 🧵
In this week's The grftf Newsletter: - Rethinking Education, Lessons to Unlearn, Become a Generalist — @anafabrega11 - Brain stimulation could boost learning - Are the posthumans here yet? - The 10,000 Hours Rule is Wrong, Generalists Win & More open.substack.com/pub/mishadavin…
Thrilled to share the latest ep of @thegrftfpodcast. I chat with the brilliant @anafabrega11 about the future of education and learning, lessons to unlearn, the importance of learning how to fail, building resilience, how to be unreplaceable by AI, and so much more. Enjoy!
"Any mememaker can easily create, launch, and even automatically list tokens. But entrepreneurs trying to build something lasting? They get stuck in regulatory purgatory." 🔥

Thanks @APompliano for having me on your podcast!
Today, Senators @SenLummis and @gillibrandny released the Lummis-Gillibrand Payment Stablecoin Act. We believe it’s crucial for the US to maintain its leadership role, prioritize innovation, and keep tech a bipartisan issue. We appreciate that lawmakers are working on this…
decentralization is the only way forward
Excited to share the latest ep of The grftf Podcast w/cognitive neuroscientist @ChantelPratPhD. We talk about your brain & how to adapt, incl: - impact of fiction & reality on the brain - consciousness & limits of AI - fostering curiosity & much more ↓ youtu.be/QJvkgrwjAD4?si…
Looking forward to speaking and signing books at @HBSCryptoClub’s Blockchain Conference in Boston tomorrow. It'll be a fireside with professor @teisenmann, who taught me many of the lessons on building networks that I wrote about in Read Write Own. Hope to see you there!

@mishadavinci We are fighting that fight everyday. Cypherpunk is alive and well here.
@mishadavinci always glad to hear people say that we're in the early days... it's become a meme at this point to say it but all you have to do is look at the outside world to realize it
@mishadavinci This gives me hope - it’s not all gone 🙏
@mishadavinci I'm at the last chapter. It was super good. I started as a degen (as many of us) in web 3 and started getting interested in the real value of the blockchain in 2022. I still had many grey areas in my brain or holes. The book solved all of that.
@mishadavinci Thanks for outlining how blockchain networks give us the chance to create the internet we want, not the internet we inherited. This us the way!
Glad to see research from our team at @eigen_labs find its first step to production. The technical whitepaper on universal intersubjective staking is here: eigen.eigenlayer.xyz The blogpost summarizing it is here: blog.eigenlayer.xyz/eigen/
(1/7) Launching a token too early is one of the most common mistakes in web3 – it can be fatal for projects. So, how do you get ready to launch? @jasonrosenthal and I wrote about 5 things you can do before taking the leap. Here’s a quick guide 🧵 a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/…
On the Importance of Blockchain Networks & Web3 For millennia, gatekeepers have controlled access to the marketplace—the playing fields of work and life where a person can fulfill their potential. This lack of opportunity forces most people into some form or degree of servitude…
@mishadavinci @cdixon Absolutely 💯. So simple yet so informative.
@mishadavinci The book by @cdixon is super awesome. Everyone who is still skeptical of blockchains should definitely give it a read. The book explains broken system of Web 2.0 and explains how Web 3.0 fixes it. Thanks Misha for sharing this🙂
@mishadavinci I am always grateful to read it.
🌍👋🩵 Freedom begins within us. It is amazing to see people working together to build a new system based on freedom, truth, transparency, with the vision that together we can change the world. If we never give up! Thanks a lot !!!

@mishadavinci Thanks a lot for sharing Misha! 🩵👋🌍
@mishadavinci ...or watch Dr. @leemonbaird school you on why @hedera and it's #hashgraph technology is and will be the most trusted and used internet tech to reshape the new digital world.
@mishadavinci Thanks kindly for the response.
@mishadavinci Non-techie here but if our govts succeed in CDBCs, what will prevent our govts fm blockchaining everything we buy, own, and sell? No transaction or asset, however small, monitored and taxed, perhaps censured, censored, and criminalized? Tnx
