You Say You Want a Revolution
Web 3.0 promised to decentralize power, eliminate middlemen, and return the internet to the people. Then came the speculation, the scams, and the billionaires. The revolution got complicated. In these essays spanning a decade of building and questioning, Thomas Jay Rush—a developer who created tools for blockchain transparency—examines what went right, what went sideways, and what it would take to get this right. Neither hype nor dismissal, this is a clear-eyed look at a revolution still unfolding.

About Fitler Press
Fitler Press collects the writing of Thomas Jay Rush — poems, essays, stories, travel pieces, songs, and cartoons. The list is wide and intentionally uneven, gathered over decades rather than curated by season. The name comes from Fitler Square, the small West Center City park where Rush and his wife first met. The press is simply the shelf where that long, miscellaneous body of work finally stands together.
