Happy Monday!

Hanging in Granada, Spain working on some web3 React components. @katy next to me working on some design for a new post. HBU?

Are you considering using 725 for identities? The origin protocol crew has a working example, it's pretty slick.

You bet. And having 725 will help because you can always regen a new key w/ your master.

Or ERC725 identity ;) but even then, the issue here is Twitter being unwilling to check another form of identification. The crypto world is even more unforgiving, because there is no centralized support center that can override the governance rules.

And to be clear, it might not even be Twitter's fault. Someone else may have compromised me due to something I did. Twitter locked the account to try and protect me, so the right intention is in place... just not the best customer facing solution.

I'm not 100% sure on that. I'd have to ask them. They notified me in my 1Password app that they detected my account on Twitter in a public leaked dataset.

@bevan very curious on your thoughts here. What would you do if someone said they lost their MM seed phrase? What does the community expect?

Obviously my fault on a stale email address. Obviously poor customer service from Twitter. What's the lesson though? I could have just as easily lost my private keys. Does a decentralized system still require the concept of "customer service"?

I had an old email associated with the account, and no longer have access (I know, my fault). Twitter responded saying they were sorry but will not try to help me verify in any other way. They asked that I do not reply to the email.

Twitter accidentally leaked my account data (according to 1Password), and with no warning locked my account.

Just started building new blockchain prototype. Music vibes on point: #prototyperaptor

@bevan #lkie the action confirmation notifications from peepy. 👍🐧

Love the #berlin vibe @ethberlin.

Cool!

I'm stressed out and I'm not even hacking this one.

This is the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin. I think it was designed to be very abstract, for the visitor to interpret the meaning. The cemetery feeling is definitely present.

Learning about blockchain secured IoT from @lorepieri at @anyledgerio for @BerBlockWeek. One takeaway: IoT devices *must* have their own private keys.

Made it to #berlin with @katy for @BerBlockWeek ‏- spending the compulsory time to reflect on this location's history. Thinking about the power and responsibility of decentralization.

Not sure. I saw some speculation that it was perhaps caught in a larger (likely automated) ban of crypto mining extensions (likely accidentally).

MetaMask removed from Chrome Webstore. In the meantime, you can download and build here: https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/releases

Today's Wonder: how would you approach decentralizing a physical infrastructure like phone communication systems?

Very well, thanks! We had a blast 😎

@pluma @Bevan Thanks! @NateStipe painted on -- pretty cool idea

Good morning from #japantown #sf

DIA ✈️ SFO - Any good Ethereum / Blockchain events or projects I should check out?

That's actually one of the community aspects that I enjoy the most. There are tons of improvements that need to be made across UX, scalability, and performance. Everyone can contribute something.

Once browsers have a way to resolve IPFS hashes directly, we can create fully decentralized apps. We will sit in between web2 and web3 tech for a while. That's just the reality, given how large of an infrastructural transition this is.

You have to wonder if leading crypto exchanges can detect market movements based on pending ACH transfer trendlines...

I'll take a 50% rake. Just kidding -- it shouldn't be too hard to setup. I'll ping you when I've got some space.

Definitely, it's nice out here. I'll be in the CA next week if you want to connect. Are you in the bay area?

Great idea. Plenty of democratic voting smart contracts, why not use one to host the voting/issuance of reward? I can help deploy something in a few weeks after my current project if you'd like. It would be nice to send some of the proceeds to fund an OS project on @gitcoin.

@katy do you want to design one and I'll get it up on a store? We could send proceeds to fund web3 Gitcoin projects cc/ @owocki

@katy 🌈 welcome!

Good morning all.

Nice, I #lkie that (:

I'm finding myself wanting to tip over enso. $1 feels heavier the more people join with great content. Maybe a micro tip? I'd probably pay $10-20/mo on social content without ads. Might be worth some market research to validate others.

Thank you for supporting this.

I often wonder how much faster we could advance technology if more people felt this way. Sometimes I catch myself feeling the need to act like I understand something when I don't -- it's probably one of the largest missed opportunities that exists.

If you're confused why "blockchain" or "distributed *things*" are important, or what they do, don't feel stupid. Just ask someone who cares, they will be happy to explain it. You'll feel great when you're that someone later on.
