Now that ZK in general (and ZK-STARKs in particular) are the consensus solution for scaling blockchains, which ZK-related topics do you think are worth explaining?

What will revive crypto? We’re in the depths of a harsh crypto-winter. It's simply winter out there . But this crypto winter will end and summer will come, and I’m going to speculate on what may bring it about. AI: The thing that’s been sucking all the oxygen in the room will turn out to do two things: (1) create new markets for decentralized and permissionless markets, ones that require very high scale (1M+ TPS) and low cost. At the same time, the doomsday view that AI is the technology to end all employment and all life will turn out to be false. There will be an ever greater need for permissionless financial freedom, brought about best by crypto. The technology, for its permissionlessness, decentralization, and other traits, is a perfect fit for that. Macro: I’m not a macro-economics expert. But a lot of the anxiety around crypto emerges from deeper macro turmoils: geo-political struggles that emerge from the huge super-power re-alignment: US-Russia-China-EU, the fate of the Dollar-backed world order, the resilience of democracies and free societies and the inability of the public to invest in, and profit from, ventures like spaceX and AI. Crypto in its original form is an answer to many of these huge questions but it’ll take time for the public to realize it and come back to it. Freedom tech: I’m really excited by everything Jack Dorsey has been doing, from the original Twitter (I miss it dearly) to Buzz, Nostr and Bitchat, I think there’s a new frontier for Freedom and true self-ownership of your life that’s worthwhile and important. I don’t know what will be the “crypto-kitties” moment of this new technology stack but believe it’ll come, big time. And meanwhile, all of us believers in Freedom of Financial Innovation (at Starknet and similar places) will keep on working to get y’all the best infrastructure – post-quantum safe, scalable, with smooth privacy, for the rushing summer to come.

I’d love to find a place that gives me a social net and place like Twitter used to do

I'd really love to have an app that automatically copies/posts what I post on Twitter. For starters I'll do it manually.

Question: will blockchain based micropayments will be the bedrock of the agentic economy that'll rise from the ashes of the collapsing ad-based internet economy?

Hello world! May Primal be all that Twitter used to be, and more.

Thanks for the tip! Any specific tool you recommend?

Thru which mobile app?

Following in the footsteps of the mighty OG Abdel!

haha, obviously you'll be here first :-)

Amen
