Vitalik: Deep Funding completes a new round of financing; suggests optimizing mechanisms to adapt to the needs of a "chaotic era".

 Vitalik posted on the X platform, saying, "Deep Funding is still progressing, and a significant round of financing was recently completed. My main advice to Devansh Mehta is to continue improving this mechanism (including the prediction market version), while also considering how to ensure that its design details, funding sources, and so on can meet the needs of a more 'chaotic era.' (You can refer to my recent discussion on democratic mechanisms.)

I believe Deep Funding already aligns well in the following aspects:

(ii) maintaining meritocracy rather than a simple and crude form of excessive egalitarianism;

(iii) gaining benefits from AI while preserving human subjectivity.

But regarding (i), when I look at the design of this mechanism now, I still feel a 'stable era' atmosphere—as if saying, 'Let's build a large mechanism device, fix a certain principle of justice, and then have society as a whole invest funds into it.'

What we need to further consider is: how to make it still function effectively in a world that does not operate so stably."
