Tradeoffs of the Permaweb
Thirty-three days ago, Scott and I had the idea to engage the Lurker community in the content creation process. We asked everyone to offer an idea for what we should focus on in the next episode. We’d randomly choose one of the ideas, and then when we auctioned off that episode as an NFT, that person would get 50% of the proceeds, with everyone who offered an idea sharing 25%. This seemed to be a good way to surface interesting content and take advantage of Mirror’s economic tools to engage t...

Introducing Lurker
We’ve been lurking in the shadows for most of our lives. Biding our time. Waiting for our moment. Just chilling out, frankly. But also learning and growing stronger. Preparing to make our mark. But then deciding we can always make our mark tomorrow. “We’re here, aren’t we,” we tell ourselves. “Isn’t that enough?” Like you, we are members of five or six DAOs. DAOs are a lurker's dream. These are extraordinarily interesting and rewarding places to hang out. They are bursting at the seams w...

Love and Money in DAOs
It’s an absolute lovefest in DAOs. Everyone in a DAO at this moment is in early to something that’s going to be big, big, big. That includes me, since I’m a member of some of them. Also, valuations are going nuts. $FWB (Friends with Benefits DAO) tokens are up 700% over the past thirty days. $FF (ForeFront DAO) is up nearly 500%. $Whale (Whale DAO) is up a mere 200%. And so on. The world, starting with the greater crypto community, is starting to catch on to the superpowers of smart, driven p...

What to Expect if Vitalik's Dad Takes Over
It's possible V says goodbye to Ethereum one day. He is a young man, full of surprises. Remember when he donated sixty trillion shiba coins to charity? The guy's brilliant, but he also likes to shake things up. The good news is, Ethereum could survive without him. But still, every project needs a leader of sorts, even if it isn't cool to say so in crypto. Who else but Dmitry Buterin? You laugh? https://twitter.com/BlockGeekDima/status/1401635270047551488?s=20 Anyone who describ...
