To start, I would like to say that Crypto The Game has been a fun, time-consuming new experiment in our world. Congrats to Dylan and team for bringing CTG into existence.
The highlights for me have been meeting new people in the space via tribes and also becoming closer with familiar faces.
We’ve had lots of fun in lots of chats along the way.
I am very happy to be a part of the final grouping.
In general, I spend a lot of time thinking about making our space better (we still have many issues) and more recently I’ve been diving deeper into the Public Goods arena.
I helped launch Public Nouns (https://publicnouns.wtf/) and have been contributing to this community since its inception.
Public Nouns DAO is a collective that is funding wild experiments in the Public Goods space.
The cool thing about Public Nouns is we took an exciting novel mechanism (Nouns DAO) and applied it to Public Goods.
Now, when I look at CTG, I see another exciting novel (and fun) mechanism.
As I sit here in the final grouping, I can only think of how we can leverage this mechanism to make our space better.
Below is what I’ve arrived at:
What: Vote for Sky (0xSkyMine) and we will do something really cool.
How: I will purchase and distribute Public Nouns (these guys: https://twitter.com/PublicNouns) to all 20 other CTG finalists.
I will also purchase and distribute at least 40 Public Nouns to Voters via a fair on-chain drawing. All Voters will be included (this is not a bribe).
The starting auction price for a Public Noun is minimum 0.33 ETH.
Why: Together, this will bring another 60 amazing people into the Public Nouns community where you will get to govern how to distribute over $400k to experiments in the Public Goods space.
Some people have been telling me that the people playing CTG don’t give a f*ck about Public Goods or making our space a better one.
I don’t believe this so I am going with my gut.
Others will come up with their own reasons to vote for them: they will give the funds to Coin Center, they will throw a huge party for everyone, they will maybe even make bribes. These are great, but not for me.
I feel my “proposal” is a win for everyone involved, which is what crypto is about for me.
You can do as you please, but you will be a part of something really cool and good if you choose to support.
I appreciate all of you!

Love On-chain: Heart-Bound Tokens
Originally written: 3 July 2022 "Proof of Love is the future." — Overheard at DAO PalaceOriginal off-white paperAbstract Web3 allows people and communities to document value and digital asset ownership on-chain most commonly with the ability to transfer these values and assets freely. Some organizations have been using forms of non-transferrable governance for many years now.

Unconquerable Product Ownership
From the Back to the FrontI had the opportunity to share ideas around “Unconquerable Product Ownership” at MCON2 in Denver in early September. In our Ethereum world, we often assume that we are building unconquerable products because we are building on Ethereum. However, we see many recent examples of how products, projects and DAOs are being conquered, attacked or censored. If we want to build the system that we think we are building, we need to pay more attention to important factors from t...

How DAOs Learn to Die
(Cover image credit: Shepard Fairey) At the DAOist in Paris during ETHCC week in July 2023, I gave a presentation to a small, mixed audience made up mostly of people that are big fans of DAOs. Below is a summary of the presentation using relevant slides and some in between commentary. I initially titled the presentation:But the topic was more about:Over the past few years, I have seen DAOs form and live from the inside and more recently I’ve seen some DAOs end. I wanted to share some of the w...
