I’m not here to make Web3 sound complicated.
I’m here to make it make sense.
I’m Erick, a Web3 Explainer based in Kenya and the founder of @BlockSchool_ , a Web3 education platform helping African beginners understand blockchain, digital identity, AI infrastructure, and the next internet without the jargon or hype.
I didn’t start as a Web3 expert.
I started as someone searching for simple, honest answers about what all of this actually meant.
So I decided to become the person I wished I had when I was starting.
Here’s what I’ve built in public:
📖 30 Days. One Thesis. One Series.
For 30 days, I explored one question:
How can the next internet verify who is behind an account, transaction, or AI action without sacrificing privacy?
No price predictions.
No speculation.
No hype.
Just one infrastructure idea explored from different angles.
🔗 Full series:
xitter.cf/CodeWith_Erick/status/…
🎓 NFTs Explained From the Ground Up
A beginner-friendly series for anyone curious about NFTs but tired of technical jargon.
Just the fundamentals, explained step by step.
🔗 Start here:
xitter.cf/CodeWith_Erick/status/…
What I’m building next:
Monday ~ Builder Questions
~~~Sharp questions about Web3, AI, identity, and the next internet.
Tuesday ~ Web3 Explained
~~~Complex concepts broken down so beginners can understand them.
Wednesday to Saturday ~Internet Of Verified Intelligence breakdown.
~~~Real-world stories about trust, verification, identity and emerging technology as breakdown 30 Day-Series one at a time.
Sunday ~ Recap of the week.
~~~A simple recap of what we explored and learned during the week.
I’m not building another account that tells you what to buy.
I’m building an education brand that helps you understand what you’re actually looking at.
For African beginners.
For curious minds.
For builders who want substance over speculation.
That’s what BlockSchool Africa is being built for.
If you want Web3 explained simply, practically and honestly, you’re in the right place.
Welcome.
I’m Erick.
The Web3 Explainer.

The next phase of Edel Markets is taking shape.
Private trading infrastructure on Canton was the foundation.
Now comes the liquidity required to turn that infrastructure into a serious market.
We've been working behind the scenes with some of the industry's most established players.
More to come Monday.
The pieces are coming together.

Another Institutional Step Forward for Edel.
We're proud to partner with @flowdesk_co, bringing
institutional-grade market-making and deep liquidity
provision to Edel's markets on Canton.
Private markets. Institutional execution.
Follow-up for builders:
Name one project; protocol, startup, institution anywhere in the world that is seriously solving AI agent identity verification right now.
~Not theoretically.
~Actually building it.
If you can’t name one, that’s the most important answer in the thread.
Let us here you out👇
In 2023, stablecoin settlement volume quietly surpassed PayPal’s annual transaction total.
Most people missed it because nobody rang a bell.
~AI agents are about to do the same thing to human initiated payments.
And right now, not one of those agent transactions requires verified identity.
That gap is either the biggest risk in the financial system or the biggest opportunity for whoever closes it first.
BUILDER QUESTION | WEEK 3
A thread 🧵👇
My answer: @Concordium , through the x402 integration.
Not because it’s the only answer.
Because it’s the only answer that solves it at the protocol level not as a feature, not as a layer on top, but as a condition of participation from day one.
Everything built on top of a weak identity layer inherits that weakness.
Everything built on #Concordium’s inherits the verification.

BUILDER QUESTION | WEEK 3
A thread 🧵👇
Imagine an AI agent that can act, pay and transact without waiting for human approval.
But who verifies its identity, pays its bills and gets its transactions processed?
That’s where identity, payments and network infrastructure come in.
@Concordium Agent Registry, x402 and concordium:native each play a different role.
The future of AI agents isn’t just intelligence.
It’s trusted infrastructure working together.
For AI agents to operate economically, three functions must work together without being confused with one another.
Identity → Concordium Agent Registry verifies the agent’s ownership and its association with a verified identity.
Payment → x402 carries the payment flow between the agent and the service provider.
Network fees → CCD powers transactions on Concordium, while a sponsor or facilitator can cover the fee on the agent’s behalf through a sponsored transaction.
These are separate functions, each solving a different part of the process. Identity establishes who stands behind the agent.
@x402scan handles payment.
concordium:native covers the cost of interacting with the network, even when the agent does not pay that fee directly.
That separation matters.
An agent’s ability to prove who stands behind it, pay for a service, and get its transaction processed are three distinct requirements.
@Concordium brings these components together without treating them as one system.
That is how the infrastructure for the agent economy needs to be designed: each function has a clear responsibility, and the connections between them are explicit.

BUILDER QUESTION | WEEK 3
A thread 🧵👇
In 1994, a 30-year-old quit his Wall Street job to sell books on the internet.
His colleagues thought he'd lost his mind.
The window between "this is obviously too early" and "I wish I'd understood this sooner" is almost always the same size and it closes faster than anyone expects.
We're inside that window right now with verified identity infrastructure.
SUNDAY RESET | WEEK 2

So, here is the builder question:
If AI agents become dominant movers of stablecoins and the identity layer remains inadequate, what breaks first?
~The legal system?
~The protocol?
~User trust?
~Institutional adoption?

Heard about Shift RWA but never actually tried it?
I decided to test it myself.
From navigating the platform to exploring Series Tokens and Vaults, here’s my experience using Shift, step by step.
Let’s explore shift together.
