Hard to believe FTX is insolvent. No matter how the game plays out, people deserve transparency and proof. If there’s a single thing that could be done better in this industry, I would argue it’s the attestations of reserve by any projects. Too many times people put their trust in teams that they have not even met. Too many times the builders’s strategy is “we are fine, trust us.” Too many times when people lost all their savings not even knowing how it happened. These all go back to transparency and the industry shall encourage the attestation-of-reserve practice: https://niccarter.info/proof-of-reserves/
01 Art + Media for Extinction Rebellion — Charlie Waterhouse Charlie Waterhouse is a co-founder of the Art Group and Media team at Extinction Rebellion based in London. He’s Creative Director of This Ain’t Rock ’n’ Roll and a director of the Brixton Pound. In this episode, we talk about the origins of Extinction Rebellion, a global movement using non-violent direct action to persuade governments to take action on climate, and inspire public consciousness to the cause. We explore how design and art played a part in its formation. And talk about direct actions by XR including the recent protest at the House Of Commons in the UK, in which activists glued themselves to each other around the speakers chair. Also learnings that may be taken from web3 and DAOs, and lines drawn between 1960s counterculture, punk and current day social movements. -- UFO is a place for revolutionary ideas.

Happy Merge Day! 🚀
Count down to The Merge!
FEI is done. Even at $188M Mcap, it's shutting down and DAO is dissolving. In early 2021, Fei protocol raised null.3B USD in ETH. This is more than Facebook, Twitter, Uber and countless Web2.0 tech giants. Unfortunately their PCV model doesn't work out and now selling the remaining assets: • withdraw and burn all protocol FEI • TRIBE token OTC exploration • sell ~18.75M LUSD • sell ~21k ETH • keep ~50k stETH Another dApp gone.
