He discusses anthropology, Web3 and other subcultures, and many other interesting topics with @chaserchapman in this episode of On The Other Side 👇
Background
🔹 An anthropologist
🔹 Is an artist
🔹 A DAO contributor
🔹 Has a Substack, but it’s not really a newsletter, but a cultural report
Substack
🔹 It’s more an anthropological collection of a subculture
🔹 Trying to record the why and the what behind the different projects
🔹 Important to have a bird’s eye view to see the connections
🔹 Is an obsessively curious person. Have always been searching for cool stuff
Today, I'll be sharing the book highlights of @peterthiel's Zero to One. Peter Thiel is a serial entrepreneur who helped to start up many companies, like @PayPal and @PalantirTech, and invested in Facebook.
If he has something to say about startups, I want to know. Read on 👇
There are 2 kinds of progress:
• Horizontal (1 to n)
• Vertically (0 to 1)
E.g. Horizontal progress is about getting existing products distributed to more places (globalization), while vertical progress is about coming up with new products (tech).
From the book's title, you should be able to deduce which is the better kind of progress. Going from zero to one will be hard, but the rewards will be way better than going from 1 to many.
👉 Look for companies that go from 0 to 1 instead of 1 to n.
🔹 People remember the year for all the terrible stuff that happened
🔹 Important to remember the positive events too (e.g. the merge)
🔹 The merge is a transaction inclusion time decrease
🔹 Have multiple zk-EVM implementations that will have a mainnet launch in 2023
🔹 @signinwitheth has seen massive gains in adoption
🔹 Cryptocurrency payments worked during the invasion of Ukraine
🔹 Have always recommended @KeePassXC or @Bitwarden:
🔸 KeePassXC: A completely offline tool. Reserved for extreme scenarios
🔸 Bitwarden: A secure password manager that synchronizes your password database across multiple devices
Now
🔹 Online password managers have advanced quite a bit
🔹 Every reputable password manager encrypts everything on your machine before it goes into the database
🔹 Does not recommend LastPass, 1Password, Dashlane
🔹 For people new to password managers, he recommends Bitwarden
