I reviewed @HermanNarula’s book, Virtual Society, where he explores the historical & philosophical origins of the metaverse & envisions an interoperable future. When the metaverse emerges, digitally-native value will develop & permeate into the real world

Governor @GavinNewsom backed up his executive order with a strong show of support for the web3 industry today by vetoing AB 2269.
He’s given us a great opportunity to help CA lead web3. Time to make it happen!
