Chris Dixon and I hung out Monday at our new secret social club @MichaelandMa won’t let us say anything more than that though

Join me for the @USC_VEDA Southern California Blockchain Conference this week. I will be doing a fireside chat on Wednesday 3/20 to talk about crypto, RWO, and the future of the internet. More info: scblockchainconf.com

A bit late to the party but well played @cdixon, only a chapter in and already hooked! Proud to be a part of “the computer” #readwriteown
Might be the first few copies of RWO by @cdixon in New Zealand 🤷 Sharing a bunch of copies with our LPs, and personally looking forward to the read!
I especially enjoyed in read write own (by @cdixon) section of "collaborative storytelling" - I would love to see "collaborative game development" which can combine the storytelling ability of the community, applied through onchain governance, with incentivized game dev efforts
