I recently found this while moving to take a new role as Asst Prof at @uw_law and reflected on how if it weren't for this @CHPIllinois class with Tom Ulen in 2004 whether I'd even be teaching and writing in law and economics today. So sad to hear of Tom's passing, he was such a generous mentor and insightful scholar.

Always a pleasure to speak at a favorite event, @StanfordLaw Blockchain Governance Summit hosted by @jeff_strnad - I talked about the institutional privacy dilemma (w. @CossarSofia), Opacity as Constitutional Capacity (w. F. Carugati) and my own work on Digital Constitutionalism

Looking forward to discussing my work (w. @CossarSofia) on ZKPs and privacy rights in the digital age at the Shielding Summit here in Bangkok! lu.ma/9teo4ba7?tk=fUXAON

Such fun to discuss my @ethereum Summer of Protocols research on killswitches with @TBSocialist TLDR: engineering complex systems tends to include a need for a recursive override, also called circuit breakers and failsafes! youtube.com/watch?v=AMy0RdZk…

Great convo with @federicoast re: constitutional design, its link to legitimate governance and applications of these concepts in digital governance contexts. Solid primer for some of the fascinating questions discussed today at EUI with @BlockchainGov youtube.com/watch?v=7Xrbk-YB…

The metaverse's future at #FTCrypto @RebeccaRettig1 on the relevance of blockchain for this future. For my view on blockchain's role for a digital social future in creating an asset layer outside the direct control of the platform intermediary, see papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…

Fun stuff talking about principles of governance design with GLF.digital attendees. A lot of this is forthcoming more formally in MIT's Computational Law Report... youtu.be/QsToe20ITrY
