DL: Facebook Censorship | Why I sold my CryptoPunk

Decentral Lens

This week's episode delves into two significant news stories: Mark Zuckerberg's letter to Jim Jordan, revealing that the Biden Administration pressured Meta to take down COVID-19 content, including humor and satire; and Pavel Durov's recent imprisonment in France amidst an investigation into various crimes.

The discussion explores the implications of censorship on different formats and channels, as well as its potential impact on people's daily lives and thoughts. The episode also delves into Telegram CEO Pavel Durov's arrest, emphasizing the importance of critical thinking and independent media in today's fast-paced world.

The show then shifts to Blu sharing his insights from his experience as a CryptoPunk holder and reflections on its recent sale. He describes his involvement within the community and discusses what he believes is needed for CryptoPunks to become an attractive investment again. This leads to a broader conversation about Ethereum, touching on gas prices, staking rewards, Bitcoin's development with Runes, and Vitalik's recent comments.

The episode concludes with an update on Blutoshi's Chicago Curling Club Nouns DAO proposal, which appears to be moving toward approval and serves as a great example of the potential of DAO structures like Nouns.
