Great reminder of how early Web3 still is: "We estimate there are somewhere between 7 million and 50 million active Ethereum users today. Analogizing to the early commercial internet, that puts us somewhere circa 1995 in terms of development." a16zcrypto.com/state-of-cryp…

The #ETHIOPIA DEAL is "...moving into the implementation phase.... rolling out LIVE towards students across the next 8 WEEKS. Our goal by the end of the year is to have 1-2 MILLION students using the software... next year expand that to 5 million." -@jjtoconnor #cardano $ADA

Honestly, I feel bad for #solana but this thread is hilarious
Elon Musk buys Twitter to save free speech and days later President Biden announces a Ministry of Truth. It's like we're living through an Ayn Rand/George Orwell novel mash-up.

Late last night, after winning his battle for Twitter, @elonmusk was in Boca Chica and held his regular 10 pm meeting on Raptor engine design, where he spent more than an hour working on valve leak solutions. No one mentioned Twitter. He can multitask.

Last week, the 🇨🇦 #fedgov released Budget 2022. We are pleased to see a commitment to addressing the digitization of 💰. We believe #Web3 & digital assets will shape the future of our digital economy. But we have some concerns about how the government is thinking about it: 🧵

Sad day for Americans in #crypto Celsius earn only available to accredited investors. So much for crypto “for the people”. US regulation is weird.

It’s simple, really. Crypto democratizes access to capital.
