In 5 years we will only interface with the internet through agents. I am 100% convinced of this. Who is building towards this future right now? I want to work with you.

"Why don't we do pop-up mesh?" We spin up pop-up cities for conferences. Shayan argues we should spin up our own mesh networks the same way, run our own traffic, then tear them down. Shayan Eskandari (@sbetamc) at Neo Cypherpunk Summit (@web3privacy) streameth.org/watch/yt-bt9mL…

I get why people are disillusioned with crypto. Objectively, nothing as groundbreaking has come out of it as what we're seeing in AI or aerospace engineering right now. But most of the disillusioned are US/EU citizens, where tradfi rails work just fine in daily life. That's a privilege only a small share of the world's population has. Crypto, and Ethereum in particular, has built permissionless global financial infrastructure that anyone can access with just a phone and an internet connection. For the first time in history, your money is truly yours. No one can take it from you or tell you how to use it, no matter where you are. That alone is revolutionary. IMO we're seeing a global shift towards political and financial authoritarianism, and permissionless, private financial rails will matter more than ever. That's why I think crypto and Ethereum will win in the long run.

I reworked streameth.org to be the biggest searchable database of Ethereum conference content in existence. > 15k videos with transcript > Content gets added automatically every day. > Ask about a specific topic and get cross-video answers ( powered by Jev + deepseek ) > MCP connector > PWA, listen mode, download and more > OSS Use it and let me know what you think!

The main reason why permisionless options like @DeriveXYZ are extremely ultra bullish for ethereum:native is: 1. Being able to use synthetic assets as collateral. 2. The programmability of both @DeriveXYZ and DeFi allows to create complex options strategies that were not possible before, specially for retail traders. 3. DeFi yield is very low across the board vs risk of the yield products, and I think options provide a much wider array of high yield returns with different risk profiles.
So bullish onchain options I’m getting palpitations. I think they’re the biggest missing unlock in the onchain asset stack. We’re building spot liquidity, borrow markets and distribution around the same assets. The constraint running through all three is who’s willing to warehouse the risk, at what price, and for how long. LPs already carry inventory risk. Holders want yield. Traders want convexity. Options create a market between those needs: holders can sell upside, traders can buy exposure or protection, and dealers can hedge inventory. That can change the economics of supporting an asset onchain. More risk capacity can support better execution; better execution makes larger positions and lending markets more viable; distribution can package those capabilities into products people actually want to hold. Attracting deposits into an options yield product is only half the equation, though. That yield comes from traders paying for exposure or hedgers paying for protection. The market becomes sustainable when those buyers keep coming back because the product is useful. Get that right and options can support durable demand across the entire market around an asset.

Apparently we all work in the DLT industry ( distributed ledger technology ). Its the term the european elites choose to not say crypto. Europe is not at the edge of the cliff, its already mid air and about to hit the floor hard.
🇪🇺BREAKING: ECB launches “Digital Euro” for banks as Pontes begins tokenized finance pilot. President of the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde announces The ECB is launching Pontes today, a platform that will connect private blockchain networks with the TARGET system, allowing banks to settle tokenized assets directly in central bank money. “It's digital euro made available for banks,” the ECB says, allowing institutions to transact using tokenized assets and DLT “faster, without friction," she  adds. Pontes is the first step toward the ECB’s broader Appia ecosystem for tokenized financial markets, while consumer-facing digital euro testing is planned for mid-2027.

good interview by @TrustlessState to the ARC CEO. Incredibly bearish on ARC, seems like they have no thesis / plan at all aside from being circles chain. Agentic commerce argument is very weak.
