Simple worldview for peace + better decisions: +We have near 0 agency over society Bigger forces at play. Fun to speculate but idk what they are +We have near 100% agency over ourselves Understanding society’s direction gives leverage to optimize our place in it

I've been an early supporter of DMT, and am excited to see what TAP has planned... However, after going deep down the Bitmap rabbit hole these past few weeks, I no longer think a separate indexer is needed for Bitmap and DMT assets. With the latest ord upgrades and LiveOCI, many DMT assets can now be done though only trusting Bitcoin and ord. We're heads down building on this approach. We'll release a standard for public comment soon, followed by a launchpad for these native assets and a debut collection that will be a gift to Bitmap holders 🟧
Over the past few years, I've watched people across the Digital Matter community put years of effort into exploring these ideas on Bitcoin. Different projects, different approaches, and a lot of work that most people never see. I've always had a great deal of respect for that. A big part of why we've built Digital Matter World is to give more of those ideas and communities a place to come together and build side by side. Nobody needs to stop doing their own thing to be part of it.

Latam politics so fucking gangster
This is quite the story. Flavio Bolsonaro may have put his name on a decoy flight manifest from Brazil to the US, while in reality he was slipping into Argentina, from where he may now be en route to the US www1.folha.uol.com.br/poder/…

The future is already here, it's just unevenly distributed

A cloud VPS service from Japan's massive GMO Internet Group used by foreign-exchange traders has been hacked. Attackers breached the servers, stole customer credentials, and executed balance-destroying trades across over 70 brokerages. GMO has asked government agencies for help.

"It looks like Chase's security is turning away my computer's browser, so I've stopped instead of retrying." If your agent can't access your money, is it really your money?

If only there was a better way
A Sam’s Club employee says Pokémon scalpers have turned their store into absolute chaos, claiming grown men are camping out at the store SIX DAYS IN A ROW, swarming employees, following managers around the store, and even sneaking into staff-only areas to take pictures of Pokémon inventory This may be why Sam's locations are reportedly switching to random drop times What do you all think about this? #PokemonTCG

So it begins...
The problem seems to be that the banks can't tell if the agents have been given permission by their users to access their accounts or not. Every big AI company is in the process of launching a proactive agent with access to everything. This is going to turn into a big issue.

We're building an open 3D asset standard for Bitmap, with a debut drop under it in development. It's all on-chain and open to every creator, and the goal is for it to be interoperable with every Bitmap world and game. Before we finalize, we want to bounce it off as many Bitmap builders as we can.
