Václav Pavlín - Build Like Nobody Can Stop You - YOLO on Logos

Transcript

The workshop is called build like nobody can stop you and the reason for that is that we are trying to build infrastructure and I will explain all the details about that and why and how that cannot be stopped by anyone. It cannot be censored. It cannot be taken down if we do it right and if people do it right and the people run it actually. And so let me just go into that. So I had this sub subtitle YOLO on logos. What is YOLO? YOLO is this acronym for you only live once.

And so the basic premise is like uh think about why are you here at ETH Kluj? Why are you in this space? Why are you looking into blockchains and web three and all other things? What are you trying to change? And what is your goal? What is your purpose? What is your calling? It can be something really small like I just want to have fun. It can be something big like I want to disrupt this uh I don't know nation state or disrupt this major company or it can be something in the middle of like I just want to help my community to have better life right?

But you have to think about it for yourself. What are we building in this space, right? So what is it actually? So we we talk about financial freedom and no intermediaries and censorship resistant all of that. But like what is the goal really, right? And I think that it has different names but it's one thing. So what some people call it parallel polis, some people call it parallel society. You may have heard about network state from Balaji. We call it blockchain communities. Cyber state as as appeared in in various uh books and and and papers.

But what it is really is some kind of an alternative system to uh the mainstream system which enforces rules that we don't may not agree with uh that uh oppresses some people, that censors some people. And so, building something that cannot be taken down by the system um and and kind of helping ourselves to to be to have better lives. Um but we are not the first to think about this, right? Like we in the tree often go and be like, "Oh, we are we are doing something super innovative." But if you think about this like building this parallel system, it's not new because people in like 1970s coined it and defined it and actually

lift it in uh for example, communist Czechoslovakia. I have two people here, Václav Benda and Václav Havel. Coincidentally, they are they have the same name. It's complete It's a complete coincidence. Uh Um well, Václav Havel was our president, so that's why he's there. And Václav Benda wrote the essay Parallel Polis, which is a very crucial. And if you have been to Prague or you heard heard about Prague and the Bitcoin culture, they had a building called Parallel Polis there, uh which is now closed, sadly. Um but we are not first to think about this.

You read these papers like the paper is really short. Parallel Polis is really short. It's like eight pages. And the book is also really short. It's like 80 pages. And it explains, I think, really well of what the whole Web 3 ecosystem is trying to build, what the Cypherpunks talks about, and and uh and if you look at um what Web 3 Privacy Now is doing, who had a meet up uh 2 days ago I know, yesterday. Um what they are trying to do is the same is the same stuff. And it's what Logos is trying to do. It's basically like enable people to make decisions on their own, regain some agency, change their life, right?

But it's uh so it's not just us now suddenly coming with these ideas. We're just building ideas on top of giga brains that did it what, 50 years ago. But, Romania has this history, too. So, all these people, these two and many, many others, they were dissidents. They were living in a very tough times uh under communist regime. They were not allowed to do a lot of things, but they still went and they wrote papers that put them in jail. They still signed uh uh uh charters that that changed the course of history. And they were still doing these small things, at that time small things, to just make their life better or try to change stuff. But, Romania has

that too. And so, I've I don't know these people at all, but uh AI said that they were important uh during communist regime. Um But, they were basically doing the same stuff here. Uh the guy in the middle, Bohumil, uh Charter 77 is like one very important thing in Czech history uh under communist regime that led kind of to fall of the communist regime in Czechoslovakia and the Velvet Revolution. And so, he was involved in that. Um supported from here. Um And uh resistance through culture, I think is very important because we as builders, as software engineers, we go and we build stuff, but we don't know

how to put it in front of people and how to engage with people. And so, that resistance through culture of bringing bringing and bridging tech and culture, I think it's really important because that can get people really excited. And so, I took the YOLO, you only live once, uh you only live once, uh and I changed it to your own living opinion um as an application example. Uh but, I think it's important to think about the You Only Live Once. We can disagree, depending on what you believe in. Maybe you reincarnate, but like your life your life here in this body is just one and you have to try your hardest, I think, to make it the best life for yourself, whatever that means for you. But you

have to have that agency and and do something. So, anyway, I changed the meaning a little bit just so that we can talk about an application, uh a demo application or example that integrates Logos' technological stack and does something that cannot be taken down, basically. You can write there, it's like a message board, so you can write there and it cannot be censored because it's on a decentralized network. So, step one, Logos blockchain node. So, we need a place where our thoughts and opinions cannot be removed or modified, which generally is what we agree that blockchains are. We submit a transaction and it's written and there's a consensus that the transaction is valid and it

goes into the whole state and the thousands of nodes hopefully run it and store it and replicate it. So, if someone goes and like, "No, no, no, this can't be there." you would have to convince thousands of people to shut down their nodes or change stuff. And it's hard. We've seen it in the past, Ethereum and the DAO hack and all these things, but it's hard. Like, if it's if it's not if it's not something that goes against the whole community of the people running the nodes, it's going to be very hard to take down. And so, what is Logos blockchain? The main goal of Logos blockchain is to bring privacy for valid data. So, if you are familiar with like Ethereum and the Bitcoin and and other blockchains, it is very transparent and it's very easy to

see who is doing what on the chain. And I don't mean just users, but also the people that actually run the chain. And we have this example that when Tornado Cash got sanctioned by OFAC in US, um almost half of Ethereum validators decided to censor the transactions that touched um the uh the uh the the Tornado Cash contracts. And that maybe for two reasons. Um that maybe because they really didn't agree with what Tornado Cash was doing. Okay. Uh but it could also maybe that they just were afraid that someone will come after them because it's very obvious if you're producing blocks for Ethereum that it's you and where the node lives and who it belongs to and who operates the wallet because it's all transparent. So, we are building

blockchain that is different because if you're running a blockchain uh a Logos blockchain node, nobody knows when you propose a block and nobody knows how much um funds you have staked so that you can propose blocks. And that's kind of the whole idea of it. Um and then on top of that we can build programmable privacy so applications that work in public or work in private uh depending on uh the decision of the developer and the user as well. And so, I have used this uh blockchain node to inscribe a message. Uh you can see it at the top here. Hello from Cluj.

Yesterday uh the day before that when I was working on the slides. And I think we could we could try that if you want. Right? So, you can scan the QR code which will take you to the Logos blockchain releases and the Logos blockchain node Sorry. Logos blockchain node is not um resource-intensive. We we experimented it on Raspberry Pis. So, on a laptop it runs really well. On a VM it runs really well. Doesn't really matter where. Uh it runs really well on Raspberry Pi as well.

And so, you can just download the binary and run the node. I'm going to I'm going to walk you through that how it's done if you if anyone is is uh willing to participate. Um so, if you go to the URL and if my internet works, um and you find the Mhm. They They have done a lot of release candidates and you find the release 0.1.2. It's very easy to run the blockchain now.

So we need to download the binaries and I have actually already done that so that I don't have to do it again. So I'm just going to I'm just going to copy them over to a fresh folder. So I know copy here. So there are a bunch of artifacts and what do you want is you want to look for if you're using Linux or if you're using Mac. We don't have for Windows so you have to go through VSL probably and you need to download both the circuits and the blockchain node.

And then the circuits get unpacked into the home there. All the commands are here so it should be very easy to do that and when you unpack the blockchain node you get a binary like so. And so then you need to initialize it. And so what happens here if I copy this and I run this it the blockchain node generates a user config. And the user config has all the information for the node on how to connect to the network, how to behave in the peer-to-peer network because blockchain is a peer-to-peer network and the nodes talk to each other and they have to be on the same page on like how to talk to each other. Um and so there is a lot of network

configuration and then initial peers. So this is kind of a weird thing right because I talk about privacy and decentralization and now here we have four nodes, four peers with the same IP so this is obviously very centralized. But this is a just a testnet for now. In the future and and when you want to do it like really privately you would talk to other people running nodes and you would get their multi addresses and you would put them there instead of the centralized a bootstrap node that we run, right? And then we have some information about how the blocks get published with blend. Oh, it's not it's not looking great, right?

Okay. Um Blend, so that's our way of publishing blocks privately uh to through something like a mixnet um that that um allows the nodes to publish blocks without revealing that they have published blocks. And then Cryptarkia is the is the way to do private proof of stake. So, if you are familiar with Ethereum, for example, if you want to be validator uh or block block proposal of uh of the blockchain, you have to stake 32 ETH, I think, right? You have to stake 32 ETH.

Mhm? I was looking at him cuz he knows. I know you know, no. Um So, you have to stake like 32 ETH. Uh first of all, that's a lot of money. Second of all, it's more important, everybody knows that you are staking 32 ETH because they can see it in your wallet, right? As long as they see that you have your node proposed a block that is attached to some wallet and then you can see in the wallet how much stake do you have. Um and that is potentially risky because if everybody knows that then um people can attack the validators. And so, Cryptarkia is a proof private proof of stake where it works differently. The node basically gathers a lot of information from the network and then locally it kind of uh infers uh by some crazy math that I don't understand uh

how to uh whether it can propose a block or not, whether it's winning the local lottery as we call it. Um and if it can, it generates a proof of leadership just like I am a node that knows all of this information and that has enough stake locally and that uh has uh the ability to propose a block. And then we propose a block. And uh the stake is never revealed and uh the block proposed is never directly published to the network so it's never revealed who published the block. Um and then some other configuration and then we have keys. So at the end we have the we have the keys that we will use to go to faucet and get some uh testnet tokens.

Now, so this was the command to to generate to generate the config a user config and then all you need to do is to log us blockchain node user config and it dies. What? Why does it This is new. I've not seen it before. It's like doesn't do anything. Uh It's Yeah, yeah, no, that's I I was See? Like I was I was telling him yesterday at the speaker dinner that I have a friend who

when he does demos and they always fail uh he's like demo live demos are are like NASCAR. You don't go to NASCAR to see cars going around. You go for a crash. So this is NASCAR right now. It crashed. Why? But what did Why? I have no idea. Um Let me check this. I think this is this is the log. Uh just everything is just empty. What? I don't understand.

Okay, let me turn off my VPN just in case that's messing up things but that this this makes like zero sense. Uh okay, let's do it this way. And let's try again. So, let's run the init again. Configuration. Nothing. Okay, I'm not going to show you how to run a local blockchain node unless I do this. And let's see if that works. There's something really weird with my laptop right now.

Because this worked like 15 minutes ago. You saw it, right? Like I was just like it's just like It it Yeah, I was like, oh, let me try if it still works. If it runs it like if my if my connection is good. Uh. Come on. Yeah. Oh, you can't because it doesn't, but um it used to work. I don't understand. I'm I'm just like right now I'm really confused. Oh, okay. This is why it's already running. Yeah.

Uh, so it works the whole time. It works the whole time. Uh. Oh. Come on. Okay, so let's uh let's try again. Let's let's sync the blockchain. So, I've started the node. It's syncing the chain. Um, it's going to take a while. Uh, what we can do is we can check the current situation by calling this this thing. Um And so, we can see that we are slowly syncing. We're at the height 20, so that's block 20. I think we're at like on the on this testnet like at 100 50k or something. So, we're going to let it go.

And I'm going to continue with the presentation, and then uh when it when it's done, we'll we'll do stuff with that. Um once it's synced, we can also like get the funds from the faucet and stuff like that. So, we will do that later. So, now this is the step one, right? We need a place where if you put something in there, it's just going to stay there. It's going to be available forever for everyone. That's what blockchains are for. Um now, step two, we want to be able to claim our space in this virtual territory and share our thoughts. And so, we can build a simple message board.

Um what does that mean? I've I haven't written any code for a couple months, so I have asked AI to create this, obviously. Um as you all should, probably. Um and so, the idea is that we have these channels. So, uh in Logos blockchain, if you want to put something in, you create a channel and you inscribe into the channel. And that's, for example, like how L2s would run on this blockchain. They would basically have a sequencer and they that sequencer would inscribe into a channel and that would preserve the state. And so, we can claim a channel or we can create a channel uh for ourselves.

And then we can write into that channel, and that's what I did here. Obviously, a lot of testing. Um and uh also other people have written and created their channels. Uh since I'm syncing the node, I'm not going to run it now. I'll run it slightly later uh and show you live. So, the step three, if we have this message board, so we can write all of our opinions there and if as long as people know our channel name, they can watch it live and they'll be like, "Oh yeah, this guy this guy is right. He is right because we need to drink more water." Uh or something. I don't know.

Depends on what's your preference. Uh but then there is a another thing, right? We all live in a time where we share pictures and we uh share videos and stuff. So, how do we how do we do that? Because we don't want to put put pictures into blockchain because that's just insane to to to sync sync into every single node um around the world. So, Logos is building something called Logos Storage. It was previously called Codex. Uh we've changed it. Now everything is Logos. So, Logos blockchain, Logos messaging, Logos storage.

Uh and the idea of Logos storage is relatively simple, right? We need a way to store data in a decentralized manner, uh have it privacy-preserving, and uncensorable, again, and secure, right? And so, how do we do that? Um we people run nodes. And you can upload data to your node. If you're familiar with IPFS, the basic working is very similar. You upload data to your node, and other people can fetch it from you, and by that you replicate it into the network. We have some other ways of like distributing data into the network, uh but this is kind of the main idea. So, if I use it for this uh for this board, I would hit {slash} upload,

and put in a path of a PNG or something, and we'll upload it to my node, and then it would get uh attached to as a message, as a as a structured message into my board, and then anyone uh loading my channel would would get that CID, a content identifier, that's what it's called, where like basically deterministic way of telling uh of representing the data. So, you take the data, you chunk it out, uh you hash those, you build a Merkle tree, and the root of the Merkle tree is kind of the information. And the CID, uh it's a unique identifier, so if you fetch that, you're sure that you're fetching the actual data that has been uh uploaded. And uh and that we can then integrate. The key

part of Logos storage that is different from all the other competitors, kind of, so like Swarm and uh IPFS and Filecoin and all these, is that we are also, again, go into privacy. Uh and privacy is core value of all our projects. And so, what that means is that uh we believe that you should be able to serve data without revealing that you're serving the data and you should be able to fetch data from the network without revealing that you're interested in some kind of data. And so I cannot explain how it works because I don't really understand it, but there are papers that the team has written and that they're working on um that explain it and you can look at them. But basically the idea is that if

I want to fetch some potentially um dangerous data like some whistleblower in uploading information or some journalist uploading something uh I can without revealing that I'm interested in that which could be problematic if your government doesn't like you looking at that data. Um and same for serving data if you're if you if you're a storage provider it is just serving a a small chunk of uh information um you should not be uh liable for that information as long as it just follows the protocol of the storage. So uh the privacy privacy uh promised there as well. And so what do we need storage for explicitly? Uh we need it for serving applications. I will explain why and how

um because we have something called Basecamp that has package manager and those packages need to live somewhere and if we don't want to have a centralized solutions we need a decentralized storage for that. Uh but then also file sharing because um as I said we want to be able to share files and doing it in a decentralized manner makes a lot of sense. And so I've already shown this, right? So like I can upload a file and then then shows up like this. I have a GUI version that actually shows the image. I'll show you that. Show you show I will show you that in a bit. And so then the last part of the mix kind of uh from the infrastructure perspective is Logos messaging because we want to be able to also live communicate with people and not just

post. Uh at least I want to. And so we can kind kind like take the uh take the message and then spin out a a conversation thread, basically a chat with other people. And for that we would use Logos messaging. And what Logos messaging is, it was called Waku before, maybe you have heard about Waku. The idea is that we can have a peer-to-peer network where anyone can basically join and in an unlinkable manner communicate with someone else. And that someone else can be a human or it can be a machine, it can be machine-to-machine, doesn't really matter because it's a general network.

And the key key term here is unlinkability. What does that mean? If I send something to Roxana, nobody should be able to tell that I have sent something at all or sent something to Roxana and nobody should be able to tell that Roxana got a message, right? The reason for that is that we have some private messengers if we talk about like human chat applications like Signal which will never reveal your data, but it still captures and potentially there is a risk of leaking or revealing some metadata that tells who is communicating to whom, from where and how and I'm not even talking about like Telegram and and Facebook Messenger and all these other applications that do it

on purpose. I'm talking just about like there are limitations in centralized infrastructure that will that can potentially leak lead to leaking metadata. And so we want to be able to use this peer-to-peer network in a way that does not link the recipient and the sender. The sender should be persistent so even if you try to prevent someone from using it, he can still go around and and use other nodes. That is resilient so even if you cut off half of the network, it would still function. Scalable so you have some limits in place so that it doesn't blow up if people start sending a lot of messages. It's rate limited so we have a privacy preserving rate limiting so allowing you to limit the number of

messages, total number of messages in the network while still not knowing who is who is doing what because normally if you need to do rate limiting in centralized system, you attach identity to every request and by that you can rate limit who is doing how many requests. We can't do that because we don't want to know the identities and we don't want to leak them. So there is a very fancy ZK based way I can talk about that if you want, but we don't have to go into details. And so then we provide there is the network which is just people running nodes. Um the protocols which are public and everything is very defined of like how do these things work and why and and what. And then as the case is we can easily integrate it.

And so then what we can do is we can maybe add a feature where we select the message on the message board and then we open like a side chat and if there is multiple people interested in talking about that, they can they can just chat in an ephemeral chat that just never gets stored anywhere, just get uh it just disappears after after you're done talking. And how does this kind of like all ties together? I built this TUI Claude did build this TUI uh text user interface which which is just like using all the stuff kind of mangled together uh which is fine.

But we want to have everything modularized and reusable and uh distributable. Um and we want to be able to run our software and distribute it and so we're building something called Logos Core and Basecamp. Uh and we want to make it less nerdy because if you build this, it's cool, but a normal user will probably not use it. Like my mom wouldn't figure out how to run a terminal probably. Um and so we want a desktop application that allows you to share the applications easily. And so Logos Core is kind of the internal developer focused part. It's a modular framework so every single piece of the infrastructure that I talked about is a module and then people are building other modules, like we have a

hardware wallet called Keycard, and our colleague built a module for Keycard so that you can um operate the hardware wallet from from Logos Core, from other modules uh as needed. Um and then you can build modules in different languages, and it allows you to like for the modules to communicate and to have some uh gating or like which module can talk to which other one and dependencies and all of that. And then it kind kind of all goes into Basecamp, which is this application look like looks like this, uh which is what we basically want to distribute uh to people, and then there is a package manager inside uh or kind of an app store,

let's say, uh where you can just go and you can click and say, "I'm interested in Yellow board, and I want to load it." And so it downloads all the necessary modules and instantiates them, and then you can start using them using the application. Um Actually, this QR code leads to the source code for the Yellow board uh application if you want to take a look at the code. Um let's check the node how it's how it's doing. It's online. So, uh when it syncs all the all the blocks, it's actually 100,000, not 150. Well, uh and then it waits 5 minutes um and follows the chain, and if everything is fine, it switches to online.

Uh so what we can do with that now is basically two things. Um we can keep going with this tutorial and get some tokens from faucet, which um probably going to do cuz it's good to have tokens even though they are fake. Um So you call this command, which basically uh is like just give me uh free lines around known keys uh field, and then you take this, which is your um which is your wallet address, basically.

And then we go to faucet. Every time I do a demo, this crashes. Like it works like a charm. Like Like always, like what I explained, but like the I I've reported the crash of the faucet like five times, basically every time I I did a demo. So, success. Yes. Um and then we can go back to here, and we can actually check the balance. So, it's going to take a bit of time to just have it synced everything uh with the chain, but in when block is processed, we should get um we should get the balance of our wallet uh increased or actually uh

initialized. And then, what we can do is what I did with the yellow word, and that's the inscribe command. So, uh I don't Has anyone actually started the local's blockchain nodes? Did it? No? Here? And is it synced? Not yet. Okay. Um so, we can then try the uh the inscription. Uh I want my I want my balance to go up. Um so, we can I can try to inscribe something. That should work.

Um so, it is it is connecting to the node, so exchanging some information with the node so that it can like create the sequencer for the channel. Um And so, the channel ID is generated based on some random sequencer key. You can actually choose the channel ID as well. Um But for this like the simplest thing to do is to just um let it generate, and then I can say, "Hello from the workshop at ETH Zurich."

And I publish it and I go to the explorer. Um and should see that actually as I loaded it, the next transaction is hello from the workshop. So, by that we have created a channel and we've inscribed something and that something can be generally anything. The team is actually built the blockchain team is actually building uh some application that would be basically like a decentralized SQLite. So, they're taking SQLite and putting it onto a blockchain with these inscriptions.

Um so, you can do some fancy stuff there. Um so, that's inscription. Let's see if my balance is up. So, my balance is actually up now. So, I got the tokens and I have 1,000 test tokens. I don't know what the ticker is for those because I don't think they have a ticker. Um So, there's this and now we can actually run the board that I've talked about. So, I have it built, obviously.

Uh and so, first it does it syncs the syncs the channels for checking for the uh new updates and then we can also you can see the the status here. It synced Alicia's messages. Uh Alicia is a colleague who is building crazy amount of stuff and he's actually built this very nice uh very nice dashboard. Um That's a bit too big, I think. So, this this dashboard that basically tells you how many how many nodes are visible to him, um in in which countries because right now the privacy features are kind of

turned off as the testnet because we need to see how the how the network is behaving. Um and so he has a bunch of bunch of information here. And then also if you uh I think if you like add hash live uh to the inscription, it should show up here eventually. I think it's as as notice broken because it's only 1 day ago. So I think it's uh it's not syncing properly for him. Um but we can but we can publish something here as well. Um be like uh hello again from Cluj. We can try the live if if it picks up.

Um And so it's pending. So the it's the the the the tweet is talking to the node and waiting for node to process everything. And once it is actually processed, it should publish it here. Um It should show up here. Hello again from Cluj. So it it it got in. So this is basically just working directly with the node. Uh let's try we can we can spin up the base camp.

Can just download base camp from um from GitHub from releases. Uh base camp desktop. And uh hopefully it's going to work. I have a bunch of random stuff and I don't have this here. Okay, why don't I have it here? Um And Okay, let's see if if I find the if I can find the right command.

Hello. Oh okay. Um Let me just ask one. Uh since I I lost the command that I was going to run. And so let's wait if it if it launches and uh let me just quickly finish finish this.

So I've mentioned privacy many, many times. And the reason for that is that I go back to uh Václav Havel or rather uh a collection of his essays that came out in '86 in UK. And in forward it says, "Havel has made it clear that in principle every human being needs area of personal privacy in which he or she can be authentic." And uh to philosophers, historians, legal experts, generally anyone and I think um especially to those who needs to be unbiased is extremely important. Because if if you don't have privacy and you cannot think and do stuff freely without others

looking at you all the time, you will self-censor or you will get censored, right? That's kind of uh we we always think about what do what would other people think about what I'm about to do, right? And it's good for many reasons, but also if you just want to explore what is possible that's a bit problematic. And so I've talked about Logos a lot. I explain it like this triangle philosophy, community, and tech stack. So we've talked about tech stack. I think you now understand if you don't understand, you've heard stuff. Um but we have this philosophy as well with basically which is uh written in a in a book uh called Farewell to Westphalia.

Um uh written by Jared Hope and Peter Ludlow. We have a bunch of books here, so if anyone is really interested, you can figure it out. Um and what it talks about the philosophy is that we have this thing called nation-state, which is 380-years-old technology, and if we were basically going to use a 380-years-old technology, we would feel stupid if it's anything else than than this, right? Uh because there is always some progress and there is some improvements to things. Uh but the nation-states are not improving that much. So, we need to find a better way, or we would like to find a better way to do a governance, which should be decentralized, yet cooperative. And that's what they explore in the book,

and that's what like is the goal, the vision of Logos. Um and then from the community perspective um from the book Power of the Powerless that I mentioned at the beginning, uh in other words, are not these informed, non-bureaucratic, dynamic, and open communities that comprise the parallel polis a kind of rudimentary preconfiguration and symbolic model of those more meaningful post-democratic political structures that might become the foundation of a better society? And so, this was written in 1978 by a at that point future president of Czech Republic, Václav Havel, where basically he says that not even democracy is the right thing, but he thinks that there is something like post- democratic

political structure, um where community-based governance makes way more sense than a top-down governance from a state, and that if we had these institutional communities that are not permanent and just try to get more power and be more stable and more permanent, uh and they come up if there is a problem, they solve the problem, and then disappear and dissolve, it would be much better. And so, that we're kind of trying to do that with something we call logo circles. We have a logo circle here. The idea of that it's a hyper local community. It should be local people living somewhere here in closure wherever focused and understanding what are the problems where I live and trying to figure out ways how to solve them

regardless of if someone tells you they are unsolvable, right? And can be small things like where there there is a there is a park and it's full of rubbish. So let's just go and clean it. And can be bigger things like in Porto we have a person who is trying to build an application that would help um domestic violence victims to leave and exit from that space because she has suffered through that and she has figured out a way out and now she's helping others and she want to she wants to use logos technological stack to to help them to to have privacy and to help have a privacy to actually figure out a way how to leave this domestic violence. And so these logo circles we have like 35 around the world

run by locals organized by locals and trying to figure out what they can do better for their society. And as I said it can be small or big depends on whatever the circle is about. And then the text stack just to summarize we need in the book described as we need archives so that these communities have transparent and secure way of archiving their decisions and whatnot. We need to be able to communicate they need to be able to communicate privately and in uncensorable manner and they need to have a way to do a governance. And we have governance we have blockchains for governance but a lot of blockchain talk and a lot of battery talk is about currencies and and money and D5 and

speculation and we need to focus more on the human governance that with that. And so if you scan this link it It take you to our builder hub. So, if you want to build something, um there is all the resources there, the links to documentation, uh links to projects. And also links to something we call Lambda prizes, which basically allows you to experiment with uh Logos tech stack, build something useful, and actually get paid for that. And then also if you have uh if you if you know or you have or you are a dev studio, we have RFPs uh where we work with dev studios to actually build stuff that we need for launching the blockchain in mainnet, and we uh that also there is also a a

financial incentives on that side. And today we have the circle, so this goes to Luma, where you can register. Uh it was supposed to be a tea and meet, but the tea expert has not made it here, so I am the expert, but not for tea, so it's going to be coffee and me. Um I had to change it. I don't do tea. Um but even if you don't like tea or coffee or whatever, then just come, sit down with us in the Logos lounge behind this wall, and let's talk, and let's uh explore what you can do in your community, what you can do here, what you can do wherever you live, and whether running Logos circles meetups and community would be something for you.

Uh and then tomorrow, if you're still here, we have privacy builders bootcamp also there. Uh where the idea is basically what I did here, but maybe we can go deeper into things, we can explore other things, because what I said is not all that Logos is building. Uh we have hardware wallets, we have uh Logos execution zone, which is a um stay separated, uh basically L2 on top of Logos blockchain. And so we can play around with things, we can build stuff, we can write code, or just hand code. Um whatever. But we'll be there 4 hours during the day. Sign up so that we have some nice numbers for our marketing team.

Um yeah. And again, as I said at the beginning, you only live once, in theory. I mean, reincarnation is real, but you know. You need to think about if you're here, in this body, in this world, with this context, with these people, they are very smart, the people here in the room and outside are very smart. But like, think about what Why are you here? What are you trying to change? Can be for you, can be for others. What's your goal? What are you trying to do? Think about it. It's important to know and to understand.

That that you have this chance of like doing something important. I mean, we have talked about it over dinner with Milos here a lot that like it doesn't have to be important for the whole world, can be just important for yourself. And that's good enough, but you still have to think about it. And if you want to follow us, logos.co is the website, Logos Network is the X profile, and then my details, if you want to reach out and ask questions or anything. Yeah, that's it. >> [music] [applause]
