A counterfactual history
One of the core promises of public blockchain technology is that truth is objective: if it’s on-chain, anyone can confirm its existence. Naturally, that means that at a certain point, someone asked the question: what if it could be off chain, and we could still confirm its existence?Truth by AssertionTo be clear, that common reality or objective truth is still the goal, at least for now. But in the face of rising transaction costs on Ethereum Mainnet, people began to get innovative in figurin...

minimal chain pairs
Words, especially web3 words, can be hard. This page will be a repository for each installment in a series: minimal chain pairs. This series is a collection of pieces blending art, words, and understanding, playing with linguistic theory: a 'minimal pair', in linguistics, refers to two words that are exactly the same except for one sound. Applying that concept at the semantic level, we can contrast words that are almost-synonyms, that together describe an entire concept, but contras...

Devcon VI: La Tierra del Recuerdo
15 Oct., 2022, en route BOG-EWR E.G. Galano, co-founder of Infura, got up on a stage at the Ágora Convention Center in Bogotá, Colombia, this past Thursday, and tried to remember. Or, in another sense, he tried to remind: remind us of how Infura started–with the original slides that Herman Junge put together in what seems like the palely-lit streets of memory, but is in fact a short six years ago–and how, all along, we’ve been building towards the decentralization of data connectivity and dis...
