ATProto and the ownership of identity(anirudh.fi) atproto is very exciting to me as it’s the perfect abstraction between the identity and user data layer, and the application layer. Compare that to the fediverse and some striking differences become apparent.
Digital Homeownership(muni.town) You deserve a home on the World Wide Web that’s built to keep you safe; a magical place for virtual living that‘s yours for life, existing in a sociable web.
Solo Founders – What resources helped?(ycombinator.com) I’m about to embark on the solo founder journey and I wanted to get feedback from others who have experience starting companies in the Web3/ Blockchain/ DeFi space - what resources actually helped you?
The open social web is the future of the internet. Here's why I'm excited(werd.io) The open social web puts control back in your hands. Unlike big social media platforms, it’s not run by a single company — it’s made up of independent, connected communities where you decide how and with whom you interact. It respects your privacy, avoids intrusive ads, and gives you the freedom to truly own your online experience. It’s like the internet used to be: open, personal, and community-focused.
Build network societies, not network states(combinationsmag.com) Balaji Srinivasan aspires to be the John Locke of the Digital Age. His book, The Network State (TNS), puts forth a new social contract enabled by “Web3 technology,” centered on blockchains. In a sentence, he defines the network state (NS) as a startup country—“a highly aligned online community with a capacity for collective action that crowdfunds territory around the world and eventually gains diplomatic recognition from pre-existing states.”
"read, write, own" web(geocities.institute) Those who don’t remember the web before platforms, tend to believe that for 10 years web users stared at their monitors in anticipation. Actually they were made to believe it. First by Web 2.0 proponents, and nowadays by aggressive Web3 campaigns that rewrite the history by stating that Web1 was a dull, passive, read only place.
