@0xqubit Two completely unrelated situations. Same broken problem. I couldn’t stop thinking about it until I built something.

Six month ago, I was watching Iranians risk their lives trying to decide if they could trust one man to lead a revolution. The question wasn’t whether he was capable. It was whether there was any mechanism — any structure — that could make a leader’s promises binding. There wasn’t. There still isn’t. You either trust someone or you don’t. And when the stakes are your freedom, that’s not good enough. I kept asking myself: what would Pahlavi have to DO for me to trust him? And the answer I kept coming back to was — put something on the line. Lock it. Let it only release when the people agree he delivered. That question haunted me. Then it started to feel solvable. I built Mithra Pact. Mithra is the ancient Persian god of covenants. The guardian of promises. I didn’t choose that name lightly. More soon. /⁠Iran /founders /⁠product

@0xqubit Watching the US-Iran deal unfold this week is strange for me. Both sides already disagree on what they even agreed to. This is being framed as a trust problem. But it’s not. It’s a verification problem.
