For the first time in years, I'm a free agent
Now I'm looking for what's next. These are the problems I'm most drawn to:
→ Enabling both humans and AIs to coordinate across trust boundaries
→ Ensuring humans can trust the AI agents they rely on (alignment)
→ Getting DAOs to actually work (yes really!)
→ Creating the new societal institutions our era needs
→ Making Ethereum the credibly neutral foundation the world actually runs on
What I bring:
⋅Protocol & systems engineering
⋅Mechanism design
⋅Agentic engineering
⋅First-principles thinking
⋅Product sense & tech/business strategy
⋅Forward-deployed engineering
I'm open to the right role — full-time, advisory, or fractional, at a funded startup or a larger org.
If you're working on any of this, or something else you think I'd be into, I'd love to talk. My DMs are open.
(Referrals and signal-boosts welcome 🙏)

all posts from AI maxxis encourage you to stop coding
my takeaway: they want to be able to sell you critical and logical thinking for a premium. its to scare people into stupidity and helplessness and then sell them the cure

Did you know Hats Protocol token ids are semantic? They have meaning 🧙
Every hat id encodes the hat's location within its tree
This creates powerful tools for builders & integrators
Join us Thursday 12pmET for a deep dive into hat ids & how to use them w/ @topocount

Celebro la salida de Julian Assange de la cárcel. Cuando menos en este caso, la Estatua de la Libertad no quedó como un símbolo vacío; está viva y contenta como millones en el mundo.

*ೃ༄*ೃ༄ Welcome SC07: Consumer Crypto *ೃ༄*ೃ༄
Many still don’t believe that consumer crypto presents big investable opportunities. We obviously disagree.
We’ve long held the belief that owning the relationship with and the attention of consumers will be an even greater point of leverage in a world of open data and protocols than it is in web2.
We are surrounded by a growing group of builders who share an unwavering belief in consumer crypto. They are tirelessly navigating through uncertainty and widespread skepticism, pushing towards a vision of a dramatically more interesting internet.
After reviewing 300 apps and conducting 50+ interviews, it's clear to us that we’re right at the edge of the inflection point.
Today we’re excited to announce SC07: Consumer Crypto, and introduce you to the eight companies building category-defining consumer crypto products.

Riley deactivated over this (and other things) but if you didn’t read his last post, he was absolutely spitting
All crypto devs eventually go through a black night of the soul over how the engines we build are used
And it’s often dismissed as boiling seethe by the nontechnical

An elegant solution is worthless if it doesn’t lead down the path to the best user experience possible for your customers.
