LDFyou already get web3. no, really.
This document is meant to humanize some of the seemingly complex, sometimes downright intimidating concepts that have become buzzwords around the world in 2021, and help you realize that maybe you do get the bigger picture of web3 after all. (If you need a quick refresher on terms like NFTs, web3, crypto, blockchain - check the bottom of this document) There are a LOT of really incredible resources from people 10x smarter than me online, but my goal is not to get you to invest in crypto, or e...

[unedited from original Nicheless posts 1 and 2, April 14, 2022] Immediately after learning about NFTs, my mind shifted to the implications the "own-able internet" would have on platforms, and the way individuals interact online. Then after meeting Evin, learning about verifiable credentials, and bridging technical solutions to many of the questions I'd deemed unanswerable years prior, it all made sense. We reached escape velocity on the web when our imaginations outpaced the activities ...
LDFmoney isn't evil, we are
I’ve always prided myself on my ability to add more value than I take from the web3 community. in practice this looked like doing work for free, not releasing or commercializing too much of my own work, and generally helping people because I wanted to. but it quickly devolved into a sense of martyrdom. to believe that my values were uncorrupted by profit. that my friendships were pure and my perspective untainted. to believe that I was somehow less biased. it’s true, I haven’t put out a pfp c...

trust me, I’m more disappointed than you that it’s listed for .17 and not .169

this year has been one for the history books for more reasons than I can count. least of which has been the transition from what I would’ve previously described as my dream career working in big tech, to making a living off of art.
so, for the first time - I’d like to expand my collector base, inviting more frens into my on-chain family.
this piece means a lot to me, as I continue to explore themes of self expression, autonomy, and ultimately, free will.
I believe in the power of web3 - of giving individuals the power of freedom and ownership of their online identities and assets. but like the technology that came before, which had lofty ideals of connecting the world, it is ultimately in the hands of humans to actively bend this technology to fit our needs. we must not sleepwalk into the future, lest we end up in another trap of our own design.
I choose to believe we have the free will to design better systems for everyone - but we must actively continue to choose this path every time.
