Decentralized AI offers a radical departure from centralized models that dominate today’s landscape.

The opportunity set is growing at a breakneck pace: below is a directory that includes 175+ teams working in the space at different layers in the stack.

airtable.com/appqtcp0VjQKRV… The intersection of AI and crypto introduces a new approach to handling data, training models, and applying inference in ways that enhance both cryptographic networks and AI's capabilities.

However, a central question persists – how can AI achieve a level of decentralization akin to Bitcoin, free from control by any individual, entity, or nation-state? Addressing this question involves answering:

> Who can build these models?
> Who has the data?
> Who has the resources?
> Who is creating products on top of these models?

Some quick thoughts on r/r of social protocols and why its hard to build social consensus...

a 🧵 Upside is a challenger social network emerges built on web3 rails that not only captures the current crypto userbase but onboards others onto the platform.

Despite powerful web2 network effects youd hope more users will be "data right" focused vs. being the product itself.

@trylolli is arguably in the best position to take advantage in a post coronavirus world amid a looming cloud of an economic downturn.

here's why 👇 Lolli’s mission is to make bitcoin more accessible to all, by simplifying the way people earn, share & save bitcoin.

It does this by way of a browser extension that allows users to earn a percentage of bitcoin back when they buy online products from select brands.

MicroStrategy announced it has purchased 21,454 bitcoin, totaling some $250M.

In the briefing, CEO Michael Saylor shared a lot of the same sentiment that many of us do about the state of the economy.

A few favorites 👇 - Dependable SoV
- Preferred long term to cash

We need to restore accountability to the economic order.

A recap from today's Swan Signal with @coryklippsten & @Breedlove22 👇

cc @SwanBitcoin Inflation is a form of counterfeiting that has been exacerbated by the redemption certificates (ie fiat)

Fiat currency is a political tool that facilitates the institutionalization of time-theft, perpetrated by central banks around the world.

Fantastic conversation between @LynAldenContact & @JeffBooth today on Swan Signal.

A🧵

cc @SwanBitcoin There are 4 ways a government can finance debt:

1. Domestic government borrowing
2. International government borrowing
3. Quantitative Easing (QE)
4. Modern Monetary Theory (MMT)

All involve taxing the people and redeploying capital into the economy.

Our economy and the medium of exchange we use for trade, has been co-evolving ever since humans first started trading with each other.

As we move towards a more fluid system of payments here are a few key trends that will further shape the evolution of money. Digitalization:

The world is becoming increasingly digital every day, as businesses continue to improve their processes by digitizing them and consumers continue to increase their demand for digital services.

Few takeaways from @chamath's interview with @laurashin today on the state of the market, investing and bitcoin.

👇 Market:

You cannot fight the Fed and it has shown there is nothing it won't do to prop up the stock/bond market.

The gov't is responsible for more than 50% GDP which makes the US quasi-socialist without any of the benefits.

A lot of white space for the market to correct.

Has it been a bad year for Bitcoin?

According to @TheStalwart it has been but as government trust drops to an all-time low and citizens around the globe face increased surveillance measures I disagree.

Below is a thread responding to the points made earlier in the week👇 1/ Bitcoin is not a hedge against your typical recession. Rather Bitcoin is a hedge against monetary inflation and the loss of confidence in fiat currency.

The March selloff was devastating but as @unchainedcap explains it was from UTXOs <6 months.
