Introduction.
The architecture of 3 is the product of rigorous research and a coherent philosophical vision. This page organises our foundational writings, from the core technical blueprint to explorations of the future these systems enable. These articles represent the principle that robust code must be built upon robust thought.
Foundational Blueprints.
The technical and economic architecture of 3.

Agents | Systems | Sovereignty
The Economy of Agents

The Currency of Code: The Search for an AI-Native Economic Layer (Publishes Jan. 17th 2026) Articulating the requirements for (and implications of), a currency built for autonomous agents.

The Psychology of Sovereignty
The human transition from user to participant in sovereign systems.
From User to Participant: The First Step on the Sovereign Path (Publishes Feb. 14th 2026) Exploring the psychological mindset shift required to move from consuming services to owning protocols.
Thought Leadership
Independent commentary on decentralisation, economics, and system design.
The Decentralisation That Matters: How Curve & 3 Are Building True Economic Sovereignty Analysing the difference between distributional and functional decentralisation, and its critical importance.
These threads represent ongoing lines of inquiry. As we continue to build and learn, new perspectives will be added here, exploring what can be built upon a quiet foundation.
