"EVM crosschain" etc. this notion of "composability" creates self-enforced autarchy that does not create or integrate at real world economic value. yes stablecoins can be a "composable" expressway for payments. but even an expressway needs local exits to a neighborhood to be useful. imo real "composability"" [X Link](https://x.com/0xfishylosopher/status/2016607983791477025) 2026-01-28T20:23Z [----] followers, [----] engagements "@j0hnwang @coinbase @Kalshi congrats this is huge" [X Link](https://x.com/0xfishylosopher/status/2016660852301320453) 2026-01-28T23:53Z [----] followers, [---] engagements "@0xjiawei imo (3) is very x402 coded haha + some of the classic depin ones like akash compute/pinata etc. i would place here" [X Link](https://x.com/0xfishylosopher/status/2016682676988903496) 2026-01-29T01:19Z [----] followers, [--] engagements "RT @emilyhanyf: people have very mixed opinions on hackathons. ive spoken to many people who think hackathons are not worth the time or t" [X Link](https://x.com/anyuser/status/2018224427893403866) 2026-02-02T07:26Z [----] followers, [--] engagements "@kaili_jenner @privy_io Insane aura" [X Link](https://x.com/0xfishylosopher/status/2018392985633984635) 2026-02-02T18:36Z [----] followers, [---] engagements "@sodofi_ @ethereumfndn congrats sophia so happy for you EF is extremely lucky to have you" [X Link](https://x.com/0xfishylosopher/status/2018772589657919740) 2026-02-03T19:44Z [----] followers, [---] engagements "@0xSammy @DavideCrapis Skill discovery/some sort of App Store.

"How decentralized are DAOs really As a DAO researcher and former Uniswap delegate this has always been an animating question for me. But the thing is based on existing metrics no one can actually tell This morning my coauthor Andres Fabrega presented our work on "Voting Bloc Entropy" at the Science of Blockchain Conference. A TLDR of the paper: - Existing DAO metrics (Gini Nakamoto) all look at wallet-level behavior. They look great on the surface. - But empirically we know that voter apathy and herding mean DAOs are actually FAR more centralized than they appear using wallet-level data - So"

"hot take: onchain privacy has a much smaller market than most people realize. some back of the napkin math: - even on zcash only 25-30% of transfers are shielded since default is public transfers. - a major chain like Solana's "real economic value" = 2B in chain fees + jito priority ordering (from blockworks SOL dashboard) - add on 5B in application level fees SOL ecosystem has 7B in total economic value - suppose 25-30% of tx vol is private - this would mean a solana privacy TAM of 1.5-2B. lesson learned: its insanely hard to grow a unicorn through just private transfers"

"hot take: the mainstream notion of "composability" in crypto is actually wrong. the reason why people say "oh the only usecase of crypto is in leveraged DeFi bets" is bc we only think of composability as either (a) inter-protocol ie. "Morpho x Pendle x Hyperliquid" or (b) inter-chain ie. "EVM crosschain" etc. this notion of "composability" creates self-enforced autarchy that does not create or integrate at real world economic value. yes stablecoins can be a "composable" expressway for payments. but even an expressway needs local exits to a neighborhood to be useful. imo real "composability""
