Coordinape allows DAO contributors to collectively reward each other as an alternate—and more elegant—means of compensating work & value. As a core contributor to Yearn Finance, Trach has a deep understanding of the DAO space and the challenges & opportunities of decentralized coordination. Trach has a polymath brain and an aptitude for deep metaphors, which draw from a range of subjects, a priori knowledge, and empiricism. As it stands, the goal of all of this is fractal sovereignty, which is effectively a more descriptive analog to meritocracy. The alignment and harmonization of ownership, value, and merit is key to this approach.  But how do we get there? We move from a 'command & control' approach to 'sense & respond.'

2 - Ether's Phoenix with Optimism's Karl Floersch

Karl Floersch is the co-founder of Optimism, the Ethereum rollup scaling solution, as well as one of the primary advocates in the space for public goods funding. Karl is inspiring on many levels—both individually with his seemingly boundless optimism and energy, and also his prolific work in the Ethereum ecosystem. Optimism is simultaneously scaling Ethereum’s transaction space and its values & ethos, pledging to recycle its fees into public goods. A central goal of regenerative finance is to align economic value with our moral values, and Karl’s work on retroactive public goods funding is pushing us towards that brighter, solarpunk future. We also explore the concept of ‘Ether’s Phoenix,’ a hypothetical being that rewards you for manifesting it—directly contrasting the concept of Roko’s Basilisk (research at your own risk).  Take the Green Pill, anon. ----- ✨ Subscribe to the Green Pill Podcast ✨ https://availableon.com/greenpill  🟢 Get the GreenPilled Book 🟢 https://greenpill.party/  Apple Show Link:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/greenpill/id1609313639  Spotify Show Link: https://open.spotify.com/show/0l6aXWC94dd0RA3tkKfxjd?si=5fdadfbcd8d34bd4  ------ SPONSOR PILLS: ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum  🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING https://bankless.cc/UniGrants  💳 LEDGER | THE CRYPTO LIFE CARD https://bankless.cc/Ledger  🧙‍♂️ ALCHEMIX | SELF REPAYING LOANS https://bankless.cc/Alchemix  ------ Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 2:40 Karl Floersch 4:38 Optimism & Public Goods 7:30 Solving Governance 11:32 Retroactive Public Goods Funding 18:09 The Endgame 21:18 Karl’s Favorite Public Goods 28:25 Ether’s Phoenix 32:12 Grinding & Mindset 34:02 Memes & Narratives 37:49 Closing ------ Resources: Karl on Twitter: https://twitter.com/karl_dot_tech?s=20&t=-oO_ckIiZ6BKahlmZVvB8w  Kevin on Twitter: https://twitter.com/owocki?s=20&t=A1yy1WYtQlNAOiSxXtGuNQ  Vitalik on Twitter: https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin?s=20&t=6oPk84CaEN12Es6e7Nze3A  Optimism: https://twitter.com/optimismPBC?s=20&t=-oO_ckIiZ6BKahlmZVvB8w  ----- Music by WABI SABI - snowflake - https://thmatc.co/?l=7786B012  ----- Not financial or tax advice.
