- Another excerpt from Road to Serfdom, from the section "Economic Control and Totalitarianism", where Hayek admits there is a significant role for the state to play in expanding economic opportunity.
Does this support the notion that "neoliberalism" as we know it today isn't quite in keeping with what Hayek advocated?

- **Happy 2024!**
2023 has been a pivotal year for t2, marking the conclusion of our MVP phase. From launching our closed alpha to fostering a vibrant core community, we've come a long way.
Here's a glimpse of our journey:
🌟 **January 31st: Launch of t2 Alpha**
In early 2023, we launched the inaugural t2 alpha product, featuring just two territories: t/Web3 and t/PopScience. Despite its modest beginnings, including the Proof of Attention V1 for time points, it's gratifying to see how well-received the Time Points feature has been, motivating and recognizing our users' contributions.
Yes, t2 is just one year old! :)
🌟 **March 31st: The "Future of Social" Manifesto**
Our journey continued with the launch of the Future of Social Manifesto, a declaration of our collective aspirations. Over 45,000 of you lent your voices to this cause, underscoring our shared values in Data Privacy, Niche Communities, and Open Collaboration.
🌟 **June 19th, 2023: A Memorable Encounter in St Ives, UK**
Our remote team, spread across the globe, gathered for the first time. The highlight was our group hike along the breathtaking coastline – a challenging yet fulfilling experience, much like our startup journey.
🌟 **October 23rd, 2023: The Evolution with Territories V1**
Our exploration of new possibilities led to the launch of Territories V1. This pivotal development introduced key features including membership, territory posting, and prompts. These features have since become the pillars of our app, thanks to your enthusiastic participation.
🌟 **November 1st, 2023: Celebrating Creativity with Friends Who Write**
The launch of our first-ever writing programme, "Friends Who Write", was a testament to the vibrant and growing community of writers on our platform. Witnessing over 200 writers from more than 50 groups participate and share their creativity was truly inspiring.
And again, congrats to all winners and participants!
🌟 **December 7th, 2023: A New Chapter with t2 & Lens Integration**
Our friendship with @lensprotocol evolved beautifully, marking a new chapter as t2 became the official publishing home for the Lens ecosystem. This integration showcased the magic of composability in Web3 social networks, a glimpse into the future we are building together.
If you haven’t tried it yet, don’t miss out, all Lens/@handle holders can skip the waitlist today: app.t2.world/t2xlens
**Our Achievements in 2023**
We're filled with pride as we look back at our accomplishments:
✏️ 31 new features
⌨️ 83,926 lines of code
🏔️ 10 territories
💡 A thriving platform with over 2,333 posts and 1,187 comments.
Our community has blossomed to over 2,000 active users and 48,000 members across various channels.
p.s. Meeting over 200 of you in person in London was a highlight we will always cherish!
As we step into 2024, we're not just ready for growth; we're poised for a journey that will redefine the landscape of Web3 social networking. Finding our first core community of readers and writers in 2023 has set the stage for what's to come.
To each and every one of you who has been part of this journey: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your support, feedback, and engagement have been the driving force behind our success.
As we continue to build and grow, we invite you to join us in this exciting new chapter. Let's keep creating, sharing, and innovating together!
Here's to a fantastic 2024! 🚀🌟

- Trying something new: every week, I'm going to select one of my Lens followers at random and send them a collectible entry from Automatos Volume 1, a short collection of thought pieces about DAO design.
There are nine entries total, and one will be distributed per week for the following nine weeks. These collectible editions are on Ethereum mainnet, made using Manifold.
The entries themselves are free to read on Mirror: https://mirror.xyz/0x4Ef22A7356D96dbf95a7FdEaD4a196A668e75B38

- Will be interesting to see people use beem.xyz (or similar tools/platforms) to create token-gated video streaming channels, where only their lens followers (qua holders of their lens follower token) can access the video content. Does @lenstube enable this too?
- Does anyone have experience managing a Farcaster or Lens accounts with a multisig or DAO contract (EG Moloch)?
Doing some basic research now, would appreciate any resources people can recommend. I know a multisig can hold a Lens handle, but I'm having trouble connecting the multisig to actual lens-based platforms (via WalletConnect, but maybe there is a better connection method).
- Just published the third entry of Solo Salon via @paragraph.lens !
https://solosalon.clinamenic.com/3
This entry explores combining internal policies with capture-resistant protocols, to enable compliant, decentralized governance.
Relying on human executives by default involves risks of capture and corruption, and relying entirely on code can amplify the threat of the smallest bug. Relying on code by default, and humans in well-defined edge cases, may be how these approaches are best balanced.
Thank you to Hats Protocol and LexDAO for feedback.

- Just published entry #2 of Solo Salon, Clinamenic LLC's newsletter about virtual organization design!
This entry focuses on the exciting new mechanism of "role-bound multisigs" which allow a DAO to elect its own multisig signers! It also allows for sophisticated on-chain C-Suite structures and community-governed hierarchy.
Shoutout to the teams at Hats Protocol and Jokerace for building the tools to enable this new mechanism. Also, thank you @paragraph.lens for making such a cool newsletter platform.

- Just published the first entry of Clinamenic LLC's newsletter, Solo Salon!
https://solosalon.clinamenic.com/1
This newsletter covers topics around on-chain business practices and organizational design, such as how companies can use protocols like @safe.lens , Hats Protocol, and @lensprotocol to build transparent and composable on-chain organizations. The first entry explores how consultants should structure their on-chain engagements with clients.
Solo Salon is free to read and subscribe to, and collectors get commemorative artwork.

- Just found another use case for on-chain attestations using Ethereum Attestation Service: testimonials!
Satisfied clients can leave on-chain testimonials, for contractors and service providers to build up their on-chain reputation. These attestations can also integrate with smart contracts to trigger certain functions.

- Any web3-native consultants on Lenster?
I'm experimenting with some solo consulting practices, such as using dedicated wallets and dedicated smart contract instances (EG SmartEscrow) for client engagements, and I wonder what ideas/practices appeal to others in this space.
