30 Days. One Drop at a Time.

GM

Boy, do I have a treat for you!

After months of research and planning, I’m finally ready to share what’s next: 30 Days of Chain of Thought.

But before I tell you what it is, let me rewind.

One year ago, I was stuck.

I could feel something massive brewing at the edge of Crypto & AI. New products, new markets, new forms of intelligence. But every time I tried to understand what was actually happening, I was frustrated. There was a lot of noise.

So I did what a lot of us do when we can’t find what we’re looking for:

…I started researching and writing.

To connect the dots for myself. To stay close to the frontier. To not just watch the future unfold, but actually be part of shaping it.

That’s how Chain of Thought began.

Since then, it’s grown into something I never expected: a living document of the Crypto × AI frontier. Together, we’ve unpacked AI agent swarms, decentralized inference, tokenized intelligence, and zero-knowledge coordination, often before the rest of the world caught on.

The goal hasn’t changed: expand the surface area of understanding. Help a million people to learn, build and participate in what’s coming next.

Our first weekly AI Edge newsletter dropped on June 11, 2024. Now, as we close in on the one-year mark, it just feels right to share with you everything we’ve learned.

30 Days of Chain of Thought is our anniversary release. Our mega report, published one part at a time over the next four weeks. Each post is a deep cut into the Crypto × AI stack: what’s working, what’s emerging, and what deserves your attention now.

We won’t revisit old debates or rehearse familiar concepts.

Instead, we’re tracing real signals: new sectors, emerging protocols, and mental frameworks for thinking about decentralized AI. They’re drawn from our direct research and on-the-ground perspective.

If you’re trying to understand how Crypto × AI is actually unfolding, this is the clearest window I can offer.

The first piece drops on 7 May (Wednesday). Subscribers get first access. No exceptions.

A mini teaser:

All I ask of you:

Forward this on to one person still on the fence about Crypto × AI. Help us rebuild conviction in the space.

Thanks,
