Some thoughts on being bullish humanity.  Full piece: https://kyla.substack.com/p/being-bul... Topics covered this week on Everything You Need to Know The Huge Opportunity in DAOs The Infrastructure Bill (and the history of the U.S. Government w Ben Wheeler!) The Most Important Inflation Metric That You’ve Never Heard Of What Could Crash the Housing Market  A New Fed Chair!!!! There will be a new Fed Chair soon. Either Jerome Powell or Lael Brainard.   So what’s the difference? Tbh, it won’t be huge - Brainard is very concerned about labor markets, and has warned against raising rates too fast in a reactive response to inflation.  Brainard (if chosen) will also likely be harsher on banks, embrace CBDCs, and give more attention to climate change. The market currently sees her as more dovish (she won’t taper as quickly because of her views on labor markets) which could lead to market reacting upon the news if she is chosen However, continuity during a crisis is always a good thing - which begs the question, are we out of a crisis? There is a lot more coming.  What’s Going on With the Labor Market Joseph Politano, an analyst at the Bureau of Labor Statistics, runs Apricitas, an excellent blog on the economy and recently published a piece “Americans are Quitting Their Jobs: Here's Why That's a Good Thing.” https://apricitas.substack.com/p/amer... Governance vs Government This is where the narrative of crypto is interesting - for however you feel about it, the core thesis (theoretically) is to allow as many people in as possible so they can build as many things as possible.  Constitution DAO This was a group of people that wanted to buy the Constitution. They organized a DAO, accepted donations in ETH, USD, etc and got ~15-20k people to donate - and roughly 20% of those donations were new addresses. They lost because they couldn’t cover extraneous fees. It was the perfect contrast between old-world style and new-world speed. There were just a number of barriers facing them to finalize the transaction.  So they lost.  I don’t know if the goal was a good or bad thing, but the thing itself was an introduction to possibility. To what can be achieved through an interesting style of collaboration (whatever the end goal was). I think most of us know that crowdfunding could have achieved a similar objective, but still - this onboarded thousands of people into crypto, and perhaps woke several thousands more up to possibility.  I don’t know. It was cool. It was hope, to a certain degree.  I think Ken Griffin will take great care of the constitution, just interesting.  Final Thoughts: We have to take care of the physical and the digital - invest in the workers who make our world here on Earth an actual reality.  With that being said, there is room to reinvent the way that people think about their ownership and autonomy. Perhaps its just changing hope - rather than hoping for a lottery ticket, there is hope more bullish bets on humanity - for the potentially endless opportunities of a better future.  I don’t know. It would be cool though.
