Epic Games CEO: "The field of zero-knowledge proofs –the idea that you can verify that something happened without receiving any private details about it – I think that’s going to be the backbone of a large part of the next century in technology." 🦄fastcompany.com/90741893/epic-

Notes from the Ethereum CLC meeting today 🪡 FYI, there were no updates on Merge or difficulty bomb timing. But there were some cool client updates. First up on the call, devs discussed how the 3rd shadow fork of Ethereum mainnet went. youtu.be/nnjeqZK7jgU

Over the last 2 years I've read probably close to a thousand articles on my favorite topics: human collaboration, tech, crypto, and digital culture. I didn't get to bookmark all of them, but I did save the links of 475 that have shaped my views on community design. Curious?
