🇩🇪 @protocollabs.bsky.social and @web3privacy.info recently hosted a retreat outside of Berlin for 100 leading builders in the privacy-tech space. Here's a summary of the opportunities and discussions from the retreat by Will Scott. 🧵

🇦🇷 LabWeek Web3 lands in Buenos Aires this November. A decentralized global gathering for founders, builders & visionaries advancing privacy, DePIN, digital rights, AI, & self-sovereign identity. Join us: 📍Nov 13–19, 2025 | Buenos Aires 🔗 labweek.io/25-w3

🔒 The builders behind the world’s most powerful anonymity network are coming to RealFi. Join @torproject.bsky.social tomorrow at 1:30 pm ET for a 90-min workshop introducing Arti, a new Rust-based Tor implementation bringing censorship resistance & privacy directly into apps. 🗓️ bit.ly/3VSmUvM

Some excellent notes on what was worked on by @wills.co.tt at the recent CypherPunk retreat held by @protocollabs.bsky.social and @web3privacy.info www.protocol.ai/blog/threads...

🛡️ Privacy isn’t just about you, it’s care for your community. Alina Latinina of Web3privacy now calls it emotional onboarding into an infrastructure that safeguards those most vulnerable.

CYPHERPUNK RETREAT 2025 Recap TL;DR — Human-first approach can unlock meaningful conversations. 🧩 Interdisciplinarity — only together are we strong. 🧩 Same values — diverse approaches. Truly productive. 🧩 Lasting impact — for the whole ecosystem (web2, web3, foss)

Key takeaways from Cypherpunk Retreat (collab between Web3Privacy now & @protocollabs.bsky.social 1. Make a productive environment - people will collaborate beyond tribalism (web2, web3, protocol competition). 2. Human-first approach unlocks meaningful conversations.

Much love to @web3privacy.info @protocollabs.bsky.social for the Cypherpunk Retreat. Easily the most valuable event I’ve attended—connecting with thought leaders, deep thinkers & builders creating the privacy-first tech we need to preserve & expand freedom. 🫶

The ProbeLab team participates in FIL-rPGF Round 3 to showcase the extensive set of results that we've been producing for the Filecoin network. Thanks to @protocollabs.bsky.social @fil.org LotusPond Association for supporting this round. Check our extensive results at: probelab.io

Cypherpunk Retreat impressions are coming in. Happy that so many people enjoyed our collaboration with @protocollabs.bsky.social

10 months of hard work with @protocollabs.bsky.social People genually interested in each other. Complimentary with knowledge: future of search next to private transactions, ethical verifiable credentials (ah, here we go again!) next to network-level privacy. Cypherpunk Retreat 2025.

At @gainforest.earth, we explore how emerging tech can enable local communities to govern the commons at scale in the intelligent age. Read the vision here: www.daviddao.org/posts/regene...

See you in a few days in Berlin - wonderful collab with @protocollabs.bsky.social

🌍 What if data could be worth more than deforestation? GainForest turns local environmental knowledge into income, using web3 to incentivize protection rather than exploitation.

Passports can be revoked. Servers can go down. Borders can close. That’s why Shady El Damaty and human.tech by Holonym Foundation are building identity that survives collapse—math-backed, censorship-resistant, and globally resilient.

📰 @bsky.app CEO Jay Graber (@jay.bsky.team) advises individuals to apply critical-thinking skills and utilize AI with oversight.

Rohan Dixit beat Long COVID through patient-led “N of 1” experiments and has been symptom-free for 2+ years. Now, LONG COVID LABS is creating a decentralized research network to accelerate cures for all patients.

Bluesky CEO Jay Graber emphasized the importance of critical thinking and developing a generalist skillset for the AI era.

"Social media users are tired of losing their identity and data every time a platform shuts down or pivots. In the ATProto ecosystem, users own their data and identities. Bluesky is the first big example, but a new wave of decentralized social networks is just beginning."

Can DeSci solve one of healthcare’s biggest bottlenecks — data access? SpineDAO thinks so. By rewarding patients for sharing their data, they’re laying the foundation for smarter, more ethical AI tools.
