Every team is going to need a PQ and SNARKs plan on the roadmap soon..

Today is a monumentous day for quantum computing and cryptography. Two breakthrough papers just landed (links in next tweet). Both papers improve Shor's algorithm, infamous for cracking RSA and elliptic curve cryptography. The two results compound, optimising separate layers of

Sure, this all sounds reasonable and convenient.
But the real reason is that Sora was an internal experiment and real leadership stack ranked the Sora team to the bottom of all teams, walling it off from budget, engineering leaders, interest graphs, etc.
It was never prioritized to succeed as its own business unit.

AI agents are able to understand and re-pitch what we’re doing with @makechain better than we can explain it ourselves.
Which makes them better, faster investors than traditional VC firms in the near future..

I started tagging AI mistakes as “slop-fix” in the same way as “bug-fix” and honestly it’s been nice to recognize the skill gap of AI while still having it be a ubiquitous collaborator.
Treating slop as tech debt that later models will triage and pay down, etc.

2. Oh, you can use Ed25519 signers for chat messages.
3. Oh, AI agents can use your Ed25519 signer.
4. Oh, agents can use the same signer for git commits.
5. Oh, git commits only use SHA-1?
6. Oh, why can’t agents sign commits using BLAKE3?
7. Makechain 💫

We're going to iterate @unooo.eth to be a Makechain client.
It's a totally different protocol than Farcaster, so not a fork. It's an actual L1 blockchain, so @makechain doesn't have any overlap.
We are inspired by wwhat we learned collaborating on Snapchain, though.

We're excited to drop our SPECIFICATION.md for Makechain: a protocol for making things.
We have a ton to share over the next few weeks: demos, apps, agents, onramps, and so much more built on top of this new network!
