in your 20s, a time will come for an international trip that feels way too expensive, and it’s very important that you say yes to it

On May 21st, was honored to join the panel "Overcoming Regulatory Challenges in Global Crypto Markets" at @TheCryptoExpo Dubai. Together with Haris Khan from @rain, Elias Ahonen @eahonen, Sourabh Kumar @SourabhWCC & Shantnoo Saxsena @Shantnoo6, we compared regulatory landscapes in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Europe, Türkiye, Canada & the US. Thanks Elias for moderating! 🤝 @hackenclub & @HackenProof are active players in the crypto space. Working with both companies & regulators, we help projects stay protected — a key demand of modern crypto compliance. Security isn’t optional. It’s a requirement.

What's a must-read book or article if you're in governance and DAOs?

Writing is thinking. This is an absolute verity. Writing is not the transcription of thinking, it is itself a fundamental and unique process of thought. When a good sentence ends, its author knows more than when they began it. AI should be evaluated in this context.

Short thread on the most important aspect of the FIT 21 bill - the five prong decentralization test to determine whether or not an asset is a digital commodity. Expect all protocols with goals of decentralizing to be paying very close attention to this test. Bill text below 👇

Inflation seemingly cannot go to DAOs based on prong 5 but can be used to incentivize activity like mining or staking.

(ii) in the last three months no changes were made unless "adopted through the consensus or agreement of a decentralized governance system." Prong 3 makes it clear that development teams must take a backseat to DAOs.

Our paper dissecting AI hype in law by @sayashk, @PeterHndrsn and me is now officially published. journalcrcl.org/crcl/article… Legal Tech is a well established industry and language models offer many avenues for improving existing products. But a robot lawyer isn't on the cards.
Promises and pitfalls of artificialintelligence for legal applicationsSayash Kapoor∗, Peter Henderson∗∗, Arvind Narayanan∗∗∗AbstractIs AI set to redefine the legal profession? We argue that this claim is not supported by the current evidence.We dive into AI’s increasingly prevalent roles in three types of legal tasks: information processing, tasksinvolving creativity, reasoning, or judgment, and predictions about the future. We find that the ease ofevaluating legal applications varies greatly across legal tasks based on the ease of identifying correctanswers and the observability of information relevant to the task at hand. Tasks that would lead to themost significant changes to the legal professional are not only harder to evaluate; they are also most proneto overoptimism about AI capabilities. We make recommendations for better evaluation and deploymentof AI in legal contexts.

Like the aristocrats of medieval Europe, we may be forced to fill our time with intricate social rituals, elaborate hobbies, literature, art, and socializing. Ennui, rather than economics, would be the primary problem.
