From
Issue 0 - Introduction:
"I’ve been a little busy this year.
I launched
Web3 is Going Just Great in December, and since then I’ve
researched and written more than 750 entries for the site, which has more than
100,000 followers on Twitter and finds itself on the first page of Google
results for the search query “web3”. I’ve written fourteen longer-form essays
about cryptocurrencies and blockchains, and I gave a guest lecture at Stanford
University about the abuse and harassment risk, which subsequently received
more than 20,000 views when published on YouTube. I’ve participated in
roundtables to help advise the Office of Science and Technology Policy and the
Financial Stability Oversight Council, and spoken to policymakers and
regulators at both the federal and state level. I was a lead signatory on the
Letter in Support of Responsible Fintech Policy, and I brought together around
fifteen cryptocurrency researchers and critics to highlight how the media has
been irresponsible in its coverage of crypto. The open source code I wrote for
that was later reused by
The Globe and Mail to annotate a speech by the Pope.
I also started a discussion among the Wikimedia community that ultimately
resulted in the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization behind
Wikipedia and related projects, no longer accepting cryptocurrency donations, a
strong stance that made waves even outside of crypto media."
