Did you know Addresso is built ready to become supersoftware?
Supersoftware is software that is itself symbolic AI.
If you know your LLMs, you likely appreciate the future is neurosymbolic.
Read the white paper. Published this week.

Just to explain the quiet here these last three weeks …
The Transition9 Telegram group has been fascinating and — personally speaking — it’s been keeping me busy.
But it’s not that we’re neglecting Addresso. On the contrary. We’re tending to the bigger picture of which Addresso is a fundamental part. 💥
If Transition9 intrigues you, you can find the Telegram channel here:

What’s the big picture here? What is Addresso part of exactly?
Most obviously, Addresso is a response to web3’s Achilles heel — identity. We’ve seen Vitalik expressing concern about the current state of identity very recently (11 April), and our friends at /walletbeat are grappling with this same concern too. Addresso addresses this matter directly.
But there’s a bigger picture too, a big picture in which things get very exciting very fast. At least it’s what gets us jumping out of bed in the morning! 🤩
We’ve just launched Transition9 with the wonderful @kernel0x community. Addresso is wholly compatible with Transition9 in terms of Gaia coding and local-first because Transition9 begins with meaningful identity.
Here’s the website … we think you might just love it.

We’ve finished a full draft of our white paper and have started to share it with some wonderful organisations we’d love to count on as partners.
Delighted to say we can confirm the first of these: https://www.kernel.community/

Feedback from someone who just tried Addresso's brand new feature — to share web3 addresses — and then read our blog post describing how we made it easy, private, secure, *and* local-first.
"Cool.
V. cool."
So that's nice 😁

bonj!
social-proof is fine for low-stake fun and games
how about looking at a CA and knowing if the creator signed it?
enter **Local-First Sharing** of any address
isn’t that an oxymoron?
here’s the CA for $bonj: https://my.addresso.com/#/s/MlLVcZAVrvF4 signed by me, directly from my address book. the real deal
here’s how it works: https://paragraph.xyz/@addresso/the-best-way-to-share-web3-addresses

@sheldrake , this might trigger some sentiments about ownership in general, but keen to hear your thoughts on this 1 + 2 combo.

your closest friend will know your local context, which you alone should be in control of, not blockchain X.

We’re heads down writing a white paper on the future of everything. Well OK, not everything, but our vista is expansive in terms of the kinds of things you can read on https://addresso.com/technology.html
DM me if you’re interested in getting an early peek.

Unpacking what "sharing addresses with trusted parties" means:
- sharing has two ends: the giver and the receiver
- many tools and platforms focus on the giver experience.
- /addresso focuses on the receiver experience to ensure:
- can they trust what has been shared with them?
- has the shared address been signed by the giver?
- how is the info stored and can it be tempered with?
- cognition and critical thinking are at play
we made good progress on this feature, overcoming a few conceptual challenges, because this area is not widely explored.
in the meantime, here's a bit of a tongue-in-cheek @ponder poll

We get the question: How does Addresso relate to ENS?
Here's our FAQ response:
Addresso and name services (NS) do different things. Addresso accommodates a future in which we all have many uncorrelatable wallets. Addresso has accepted ENS names since day 1, storing both the ENS name and the address it resolves to. Soon your Addresso will accept other name services too. It will flag whenever the NS name is expired, and also whenever the NS name resolves to an address different to the one(s) it resolved to before.
