Week 284. Today we are many protesting in The Hague outside the International Court of Justice as it will deliver its order on the request for the indication of provisional measures, submitted by South Africa. Israel - as well as those who support Israel’s brutal attacks and occupation - must be held accountable for their actions. We cannot remain silent during a genocide. #StandWithGaza #FreePalestine #CeasefireNow

A reminder that Israel is systematically starving a civilian population of more than 2 million people with the full support of Western governments.

Here’s a presentation I made about #DAOs and #Tokenomics covering a bit of @Freeos_dao and @thedaoscape as well.
It is long. Recommend speeding it up to 1.25x and stick around for the Q&A.
Shout out to @BrightIDProject and @tokengineering

Just submitted. #AI meet open, tranparent #democracy
Thanks to @Freeos_dao and @thedaoscape teams for helping put this together—and for having tools already in the wings based on the amazing @ProtonXPR and @dfinity #ICP blockchains that make transparent decentralised democracy a breeze.
We're launching ten $100,000 grants for building prototypes of a democratic process for steering AI. Our goal is to fund experimentation with methods for gathering nuanced feedback from everyone on how AI should behave. Apply by June 24, 2023: openai.com/blog/democratic-i…

In 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣8️⃣ the idea for the Freeos Economic DAO was born.
Behind this idea was a question:
"What if money was a shared commons that was governed equally by all?" 🧐

Here’s a thought. 🧐💭
A DAO you can join for free without needing to buy, own or hold tokens to vote—equitably.
🗳️Also your vote let’s you to mine tokens weekly through cooperative, democratic protocols.
Not just a thought any longer.
