The Internet of Information has the MAG7. The internet of value will have the DAG7 (Digital Asset Group of Seven). These will be the foundational protocols for the new web. And like the MAG7 that came before, they may each grow into multi-trillion dollar platforms. So what are the DAG7? The three I have the most conviction on are: 1. Digital Gold - Bitcoin 2. Open Application Ecosystem - Ethereum 3. Internet Capital Markets - Solana After that, it's less clear. The leaders are still emerging: 4. Everything Exchange - A few contenders, including BNB/HYPE/BASE 5. Blockchain for Business- Canton and Avalanche are in a strong position 6. Blockchain x AI - TAO is a leader, but it's still early 7. Blockchain Social - WIDE OPEN What do you think?

Identic AI isn’t science fiction ... it’s where AI becomes a reflection of you, understanding your values and acting on your behalf (we need guardrails!). Insights from my HBR podcast feature on what this means for leaders and the future of work.

What does one get their AI girlfriend for Valentine’s Day?

Looking forward to doing the opening talk at this very significant event. I’ll be discussing. Identic AI, and why are personal extended intelligence needs to be self sovereign. The way to achieve that is through the decentralizing, the AI stack, including a central role for Blockchain. And how we need to create a movement to make this happen. twitter.com/dtapscott/status/2...
