# 30 Investing in the Future Internet with 1kx — pet3rpan

_A podcast where artists, musicians and tech creators talk about the future. Hosted by_ [_Nick Hollins_](https://twitter.com/nick_hollins) _and produced by Apollo._

[pet3rpan](https://twitter.com/pet3rpan_) is a partner from [1kx](https://1kx.network/). Investing in autonomous worlds, NFT IP, metalabels, generative consumer and DAOs.

Summoner at [Hydra Ventures](https://www.hydraventures.xyz/), a fund backing investment DAOs. Early founding member at [MetaCartel](https://www.metacartel.org/) from 2018, the web3 community of creators and developers focused on building blockchain applications, using crypto in interesting ways, exploring new ideas and experiments with DAOs.

I first met Peter possibly in 2018, but definitely Berlin Blockchain Week in August 2019. Originally from Sydney, Australia. Recently organised a summit in Lisbon focusing on autonomous worlds, which he notes is kind of an updated phrase for the _metaverse_ which was the topic a few years ago, even before Facebook was Meta.

We talk about his experiences in the web3 space. About the early internet and how it works. About the cypherpunks from the 70s, 80s and 90s who pioneered these ideas about digital freedoms and rights, and cryptography.

And we talk about collective lore and canon, like a shared belief in the Star Wars universe that is held in a shared imagination.

I'm consistently blown away by the thoughtfulness and creativity that goes into onchain games and the collective effort to bring autonomous worlds to life.  
  
#1 / Thread: A compilation of the best content I've found to be critical in building an understanding of Autonomous Worlds.

Things that weren't designed to accrue value often end up accruing the most value anyways.

Digiphysicals bring onchain interactions and experiences to offline IRL environments via NFC chips and other mediums, extending web3 into the real world. IMO one of the most exciting design spaces for new onchain experiences with.

How to Do Great Work
--------------------

July 2023\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[ If you collected lists of techniques for doing great work in a lot of different fields, what would the intersection look like? I decided to find out by making it. Partly my goal was to create a guide that could be used by someone working in any field.
