We all know Cryptocurrencies are at the forefront of innovation in finance and tech. But the people involved in crypto are also leading the way, fighting in the intellectual battle ground that is crypto twitter to see which ideas gain strength and which die off. Well, at least some of them, others like myself are merely observers. To that end, I decided to make a weekly list of the best and most interesting twitter threads posted by relevant figures from this community. Click the tweets to see the rest of the threads and let me know if I missed any other good ones.

4. Naval on Blockchains replacing Networks with Markets
2/ Humans are the networked species. The first species to network across genetic boundaries and thus seize the world.
