"I have been telling people for some time now that the atmosphere functions as a subculture, and the conference made this visible in a way that no amount of online interaction could. Everyone knows everyone, and everyone knows that everyone knows everyone, and the social graph is dense and tangled and interconnected in the way you find in scenes, movements and artistic circles, not in industries"

"Minority communities tend to function as bellwethers for the health of digital ecosystems, because they are the first to feel when a platform turns hostile and the first to feel when one is genuinely safe. When Black and queer people describe a protocol ecosystem gathering as one of the best experiences of their lives, that is a signal about what kind of social infrastructure is actually being built underneath the software"
