#mainnet2022
@udiWertheimer @brockm @Gina__Abrams @Old_Samster "Decentralisation and censorship-resistance are not use-cases. They are properties of a system," says @brockm. "Bitcoin addresses a very important problem. It's a primitive upon which we can build powerful applications for the transmission of value. Payments is the killer app."
@udiWertheimer @brockm @Gina__Abrams @Old_Samster "[DeFi and NFTs] did create a digital circular economy, which is something Bitcoiners were interested in since day one," says @udiWertheimer. "Should we change Bitcoin to allow that? I would say probably not. But we need a middle ground." #Mainnet2022
Cycles come and go, but how do you navigate them? We’ll hear from @cburniske in conversation with @twobitidiot for the long view on crypto market cycles.

@surojit "A lot of venture products we source from our employees. We run a YCombinator-style pitch day, and that's how our NFT marketplace started as well.
Many of these venture products will fail. Some will become multi-billion dollar products," — @surojit #mainnet2022

Aptos and @Mysten_Labs are two chains launching in Q4 with sky-high expectations.
Both chains utilize the Move language developed during their genesis as Facebook’s Libra project.
Will Move blockchains be the next big trend in crypto?

3/ Centralization came into focus after the @TornadoCash sanctions.
While chokepoints still exist across the infrastructure stack, the Proof of Physical Work token distribution method provided by Web3 infra could be the next catalyst to spark a bull.
