Building programmable infrastructure for more efficient, equitable coordination at global scale.
This focus area rectifies the inadequacies of current macro systems, which often struggle to coordinate and solve monumental challenges like climate change. By leveraging decentralized and improved governance tools, we are rethinking how capital is formed and deployed.
This movement harnesses mechanism design to align millions of people worldwide toward shared goals, creating structures that can allocate resources at the scale of nation-states for the benefit of all humanity.
Convergence zones where multiple subfields unite to create transformative opportunities. These are the high-leverage areas where we can catalyze systemic change by bridging technologies, communities, and institutions.
Open, verifiable, privacy-preserving rails for nation-states
A new category of infrastructure is emerging. Nation-states, multilateral institutions, and regional blocs are recognizing that their core p...
Sustainable funding mechanisms connecting programmable allocation to institutional capital
Public Goods Funding mechanisms have matured from quadratic funding experiments to sophisticated retroactive funding, hypercerts, and impact...
New coordination mechanisms for collective decision-making
Traditional governance systems struggle with scale, legitimacy, and responsiveness. Programmable governance mechanisms offer new primitives ...
DePIN networks and ReFi mechanisms for climate action at scale
Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) are demonstrating that compute, energy, sensing, mapping, and telecommunications can ...

We are actively seeking:
Does this opportunity space resonate? What's missing? What's wrong?
What sovereign DPI deployments, DeSci infrastructure, DePIN projects, or PGF mechanisms should we be learning from?
Who else should be at the table? What institutions, teams, or individuals are essential to this work?
What reference architectures, standards, or specifications would be most valuable?
What have we gotten wrong about the field, the opportunity, or the approach?
