🚨The #PostWeb Thesis Chapter 1 has finally dropped 🚨 “In the Post Web, users won't just read, write, and own; they’ll delegate…” Jamie Burke This is the 1st of 4 chapters exploring what lies beyond Web3, diving into each layer of this paradigm shift and a world where machines and autonomous agents act on our behalf. How does it play out?  🔎 AI makes search obsolete—rendering today’s “web” into a relic  🌐 Websites & apps shrink, becoming a “thin layer” over powerful, autonomous systems. 🧠 The “Attention” Economy shifts to the “Intention” Economy, where agents act in deeply personalized ways on behalf of users. This isn’t just a speculation — it’s backed by extensive research and insights from tech’s leading minds. Co-authored with Jasper De Maere, Chapter 1 is your exclusive first look into the #PostWeb – but it’s only the beginning. 📖 Chapter 1 – The Why: We start with a critical look at why we’re transitioning from Web3 to The Post Web, reflecting on Web3’s legacy and early visions of a “semantic web.” We discuss what this means for founders and how they can future-proof their business in an ecosystem where intent-based architectures enable seamless interactions between users and autonomous agents. 🔧 Chapter 2 – The How: We’ll unpack the technology stack required for The Post Web—covering wallets, DLT, DeAI, and more—explaining how these elements work together to support a system where machines interact on behalf of users. 🌐 Chapter 3 – The What: Get a blueprint of The Post Web’s character—intent-based, verifiable, adaptive, and hyper-contextual—highlighting how this will reshape user interactions. 🏁 Chapter 4 – The Endgame: We explore the ultimate vision: The Computable Economy, a fully verifiable and data-empowered economic paradigm.

Congrats to Camino Network, an alumni of our Ascent token launch program! Lufthansa Group partners with FinMont Global for B2B payments powered by the Camino Network. https://lnkd.in/eAJSgdba   With industry giants like Lufthansa and FinMont Global on board, Camino Network is tackling inefficiencies in B2B payments head-on—an exciting leap for #Web3 in a traditional sector. Camino Network’s collaboration with Lufthansa, powered by FinMont Global’s orchestration, highlights a new era across the web: Instead of costly, slow payment processes, the travel sector now has #Web3 rails for fast, transparent transactions driving disintermediation and decentralization. Why does the travel industry need this? Legacy systems and outdated intermediaries have created layers of complexity and cost. Camino Network’s #blockchain technology introduces secure, decentralized solutions to simplify these connections. What’s Camino Network bringing to the table? 🔹 Peer-to-peer connections that reduce intermediaries 🔹 Standardized data protocols for easy interoperability 🔹 Smart contracts to automate agreements 🔹 Multi-sig wallets for secure transactions Change in this space has been slow…but as they say, it’s often “slowly, then suddenly.” By partnering with Camino Network, Lufthansa is making a bold shift—illustrating that even the largest companies are ready for efficient, streamlined solutions.

Outlier Ventures' founder Jamie Burke sketches out the future of the internet today. Web3, he says, has largely failed as a consumer technology. But AI can make it usable and useful. Read his essay at CoinDesk today: "Ultimately, despite several years of abstraction, Web3 still isn’t usable for the majority of the people. And that isn’t for lack of trying. But, after reflection, its innovations aren’t really about the Web at all. Far from being a new and improved user interface for people to use the internet, it is instead a series of lower-order functionality laying dormant. You could say it’s a sleeping giant, waiting for an actual Web interface that can unlock its potential and make it usable for the average person." Opinion. https://trib.al/In0vuwU
