ENS: To a Billion and Beyond
IntroductionScaling the Ethereum Name Service (ENS) to a billion users and beyond is the vision that’s been driving me to build on top of this protocol for over two years. As a Service Provider, DAO member, delegate, and ENS advocate, I wanted to share some thoughts on scaling ENS. This article is a culmination of my knowledge, my experience as a builder, and my personal insights. Earlier this year, I organized the ENS x Chainlink side event during ETH Belgrade. At that event, I gave a talk t...
ENS lessons from the trenches
This article breaks down the key areas driving ENS’s growth. Stuff like increasing partnerships, integrations, accessibility, dev tooling, name and subname registrations, protocol revenue, strengthening its market position, brand reputation and awareness, and increasing education about improving UX, security, and onboarding, through human-readable names. I’ll also look at the factors behind ENS’s success so far. By analyzing development choices, growth strategies, successful partnerships, eco...

Personal ETH JourneyGrowing up in a small, close-knit community, I never imagined becoming part of a global movement reshaping the future of the internet. Yet, that is exactly how I felt when I first encountered Ethereum in 2018. A small group of hardcore believers, dreamers, idealists, and techno-optimists, working together towards a better future. Back then, I didn’t really understand, nor could I ever foresee the potential of Ethereum. I’ve been in crypto for 7 years, 3 years with ENS, bui...

We’re at a crossroads here folks!
Years from now, we’ll look back and realize the biggest move was simply to invest in AI16Z, Virtuals, Zerebro, or any AI framework/OS that's emerging now, and then watch it reshape everything.
This is our generation’s Microsoft/Apple/Facebook/Google moment, but bigger and more revolutionary! This is that window of opportunity all over again. Except this time, the mission is even more meaningful: empowering society through AI+crypto that’s driven by the MANY, not the few.
This is a very unique moment in time and a unique combination of multiple factors that will make this AI movement like something we've never experienced before.
The combination of:
decentralization (coordinated, community-led, egalitarian, and open development efforts towards equitable internet),
crypto financial incentive/inclusion (real skin in the game through investments in projects you believe or contribute to, and making life-changing money),
memetic value (memes as powerful attention-grabbing + community-forming mechanisms that spark global interest and create virality),
AI innovation and development (it's simply AI's time and it's the natural step in technological evolution)...
all of these forces converging and making this a perfect storm!, makes something unique that AI stands to benefit from most!
I don't know about you, but I'm not waiting on the sidelines. Whether you’re investing your money, your time, your dev skills, your creativity, or educating people about it, the payoff, both financially and for the future of humanity, could be enormous.
