Anyone heading to the AI Impact Summit in India in Feb?

Amazing example of a social form -> institution: the birth of mass insurance. In 1600s, sailors gather at Lloyd's Coffeeshop and trade gossip about ship journeys. The data is so reliable, people start 'underwriting' risk of journeys. Lloyds creates syndicated insurance. x.com/timourxyz/s...

This is super cool: a new product called Capsules that turns your essays or posts into beautiful animated microsites. @capsulesink built this demo using my Bhutan essay. It feels less like a blog and more like a short film. A beautiful way to celebrate Bhutan National Day. 🇧🇹

The funds will support the development of GMC as a new political entity. This hub aims to offer regulatory clarity and modern financial connectivity. The project is designed as the world’s first mindfulness-based economic zone.

Pretty cool to see this strategy. Excess renewable hydropower to mine Bitcoin -> longterm hold -> use as national reserve asset. The country has their national ID system on Ethereum and the GMC project recently announced a new gold-backed token on Solana.

Bhutan just unveiled a landmark Bitcoin Development Pledge. The Kingdom is committing up to 10,000 BTC (~$1 billion USD) to back the Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC) project. Big move in using Bitcoin as a reserve for the new Special Administrative Region.

At every Edge City monthlong village, I give out several disposable cameras to the community and see what comes back. The pics give a genuine sense of the vibe and the special feeling at edge. The pics we got back in Patagonia might be the best yet. Mini album below ☀️

Can't believe they dropped AGI while I'm traveling in Sweden and they're "working on access for Europe" 😭

The map of our upcoming monthlong village, Edge Esmeralda We're creating places where we can imagine the future of society and actually build it while living it. It's necessary work, especially right now.

I was born in Russia, and I have Ukrainian roots. Today was just painful to watch. I don't have anything thoughtful to add here rn. It's just insane that US leadership is trying to tell Zelensky, an ally, that he started the war. Trying to rewrite history live on TV. Putin can’t believe his luck

Thanksgiving means getting to hang out with Maple, who always sits like this with her back legs sticking out 🥹

I got back to New York and went to the beach in Rockaway for a sunrise cold plunge (55°f / 12°c) A huge whale came to chill right off shore for the hour we were there (you can kind of see it near the end of the video) Good to be back 🐋

"We act as if culture is a thing that happens to us, rather than a thing we all make together." Such a great piece from Adam Mastroianni, 'Underrated ways to change the world' www.experimental-history.com/p/underrated...
