Really enjoy your socio-philosophical approach to economy and political context. A lot of interesting questions. I loved the drawings btw.

Interesting read! With all this being said, is your investment strategy to profit off of narrative or to avoid it?

The gap between what ~web3~ knows and what it thinks it knows is dangerously wide. Drawn domestically like this it almost certainly ends in catastrophe.

Very interesting... Whether "mere" hope is enough to sustain the Web3 narrative is something that I think about a lot. Your deep-dive into narratives, mimesis, and the connection with energy was just fantastic! Going to bookmark this for re-reading later :)

If short-term thinking gets more short-term during Bear Markets, what do you think will happen to the Web3 space in times of crisis? Will the narrative of hope be enough or are we looking for some kind of milestone after which Web3 has some proof-of-change that will sustain the narrative?

Love this. From Sapiens to Mimetics to Web3...you certainly had range here! My favorite part? You just gave the Fed their new nickname..."Lightning McTightening Fed"
