The amount of chatter from ATmosphere developers around an “everything app” has me thinking of an article from almost exactly 10 years ago. Back in 2016, Joel Monegro at USV wrote about “fat protocols

Hypercerts: Recognizing and Rewarding Impact – ATProto Implementation
Hi all, excited to share some of what we’ve been building and to introduce hypercerts to the ATProto community. Where we started The hypercerts project began at Protocol Labs with a simple goal: improve how we fund public goods. Many of the contributions society relies on most—open-source software, scientific R&D, and ecological regeneration—remain underfunded because their value is hard to see, coordinate around, and reward. What are hypercerts Hypercerts address this by serving as digital im...
