1/ When Edward
@Snowden
spoke at Bitcoin2024 last week, he asked a question that lodged like a tumor in my brain. To paraphrase:
“Does the world and the U.S. election feel normal to you?”
When he was a kid, he said... 🧵👇

4K
23K
3/ Something’s off, he argues, and he points to the algos that subtly manipulate us on X, TikTok, Insta, FB and beyond.
For all their benefits, they’ve ultimately pitted us against one another in a competition for likes.

2/ ... presidents were people you looked up, people you admired and aspired to be like.
Do these candidates fit the bill? Do they represent the best of us?
If so, wtf happened to us?
42

5/ “The reason the internet feels broken,” Snowden added, “is because it’s reflecting a broken world.”

4/ They’ve isolated us and turned us into dopamine addicts who can’t see beyond the next 5 minutes of outrage and shock.

24/ Now, watch Edward Snowden’s speech. It’s unsettling and powerful, and it helped convince me that his voice is among the most important voices of our generation. Pushed to the margins of society, he can see us more clearly than we can see ourselves.
81
577
2K
14/ Sure, you can believe in evolution. You can say everything’s a meaningless cosmic accident, but humans require a value structure nonetheless. We require goals and beliefs. We require something that unites us with other humans.
We require meaning.

🤡 thoughts on Binance vs. SEC
1. From trough to peak, $BNB did a 17,000x ($0.039 to $686). Just an absolutely epic 4-year stretch (2017 to 2021).
2. If I had to pick a flag signaling the beginning of the end of the crypto bear, this would be it.
🧵👇

6/ I could talk for hours about this broken world because I see signs of it everywhere. We speak of financial nihilism in the crypto industry. But that’s merely a symptom of a broader, more insidious nihilism that pervades nearly everything.

Random 🤡 thoughts on the $LUNA meltdown
1. People like to act like LUNA investors were low IQ, but most knew the risks. I’m realizing in retrospect that might not be the case for a lot of UST buyers, which sucks. Clown ❤️ goes out to them.
2. Some call Anchor a ponzi...

12/ Humanity has relied upon church/religion for millennia bc it forces you to take at least 1 day a week to look inward, to ask yourself hard q's, to place your feet to the ground, to be here now, to stare into the unblinking octopus eye at the very center of the great mystery.

21/ You don’t need a new car, new job, plastic surgery or more money… you first need a philosophy.
You need a reason for being here.

7/ The inequality gap widens. Misinformation reigns, and we stand on the very brink of World War.
Meanwhile, technological revolutions beget more technological revolutions across virtually every field (AI, genetics, finance via crypto, pharma, robotics, etc.).

72
2K
8/ The Great Acceleration has arrived.
We call these sorts of changes “revolutions” bc they are. They upset the world’s order. They rob power from one entity and bequeath it upon another. Some of us are ground like meat beneath the wheels. Others rise to perch on thrones.

The questioning only grows louder in the face of AI.
I can feel it myself.

1K
15/ I’m still trying to find my way, but one thing that’s helped is building my own “spiritual" book. Whenever I read something profound, something helpful to remember, I take a screenshot that lands in an album on my phone. Then, I flip through that wisdom regularly.

11/ I like calling it “desynchronization.”
We’re out of sync with the world. Technological change is forcing us to break with the past. And that means we literally have to rewrite/reconceive our own places in the world.

68
1K
10/ If we achieve AGI, what’s my purpose? Will I have a job? What will it mean to be human? Is the next rung of evolution leaving these biological bodies behind?
AI lies at the heart of it all. And some have taken to calling these fears and existential questions “AI anxiety.”

17/ I strive to erect inside myself a foundation of spiritual backbone… a personal philosophy that gives me strength to stand in the face of all of life’s wonder, mystery and tragedy.

18/ It’s time for you to build your own framework.
Maybe you’ll do what I do and mash up Buddhism, Christianity, stoicism and techno-futurism. Or maybe you’ll go “off-the-grid Amish.”
More likely, your answer’s entirely different.
