Nah keep it going. Lets get weird.

I admire how far you've managed to abstract my name which is, itself, entirely abstract already.

It could perhaps be structured in such a way that the citizen would be able to withdraw their personal data from the various businesses that utilize it, provided there are mechanisms in place to prevent duplication of that information. I lack the cryptographic knowledge to elaborate the...

A working prediction, based on what information I;ve been exposed to. It would be a step up, even in terms of privacy, from the manner in which personal data is handled now, from my experience. If I understand correctly, Atala Prism is doing this already in Ethiopia, on the Cardano blockchain...

Also, just started looking into Hedera Hashgraph. Very interesting, seems to have solid leadership vision. Technically not a blockchain, but rather its own particular strain of distributed ledger technology (I may be better able to explain it once I study it some more). One of the talks that...

My best guess so far: we'll have a chimerical blockchain layer of the internet (and by extension internet of things) comprised of permissionless and permissioned networks. Seems like the banks prefer the permissioned/private blockchains (Bank of America, I believe, is working with Paxos here)...

I think the skepticism is perfectly warranted. The only examples of dapps that come to mind presently are either A) useful but not killer, such as Orchid, or B) promising but confined to the world of crypto/defi (much of the innovation pertaining to blockchain tech seems greatly useful... for...

I think the defi term for that is "impermanent loss" but I could be missing something. If you are providing liquidity for a trade pair, and one of the assets in the pair appreciates, you are missing out on the additional exchange value between the now-appreciated asset and the one you paired it...

Some startups looking for solutions regarding user experience and accessibility: FIO protocol, Celo, Argent (I think), Unstoppable Domains, maybe more. One of the major hurdles. Alphanumeric strings are chunky and unwieldy. Also, haven't looked into the prevalence of clipboard malware, nor do I...

Thanks for the breakdown. I wonder if decentralized exchanges would ever get mainstream traction, which may remove the opportunity for front-running. Although I also hear there are opportunities on the transaction-verifying side of things, opportunities to strategically order pending...

Is that a problem that fuller integration of smart contracts would solve? Or is the whole point that traders are strategically utilizing delays via escrow, and thus voluntarily take on this kind of intra-trade volatility? Still haven't wrapped my mind around longs and shorts, options, most...

It certainly is spectacular. The physiology of crypto reddit is predictably enflamed.

I'd say its in cryptos best interest, despite the cypherpunk sentiment. These beliefs are getting a proper stress test now, shaking off everyone in for a quick buck, I suppose. Although I;m not an active trader, so maybe they're hurting much more than the hodlers among us.

Bloodbath. Bear on moonboy bleeding, savings burning. Coasting on the red, that burning ford. Threatening to sink up ankle unto groin. Searing navel, naughty to have waded this far. Plates caving underfoot, bubble cracking crust of bubble under. Forefeeling stingwhips lash asunder, feelings...

Mainly in suburbia as of late. Getting hotter, back into rattlesnake season. No shower there yet, which is fine, but does make it feel more like camping. Bigger transition than we anticipated. edit: plus thin cell reception, which isn't really a problem beyond logging into accounts with 2FA...

Currently reading the initial Chainlink whitepaper. Depending on hardware requirements, average return on investment, and demand for different data types, I might want to set up a node. The digest, from what I gather: Chainlink is a network of computers dedicated to relaying data of all kinds...

There's a pervasive aesthetic across the cryptospace, a sort of clean, circuitboardy futurism. As seen in Polygon's promo video.

As I learn more about Polygon/MATIC I can report back here, for those who may be interested. As I currently understand it, Polygon is a development framework (presumably a set of building block algorithms that expedites the development of more specialized algorithms?) that allows developers to...

@catalog But personally I would wait for MATIC's average market price (the sort that Coinbase sells at) to equilibrate a bit before you do. Seems a bit overheated. In any case, you can do "dollar cost averaging" and dole out your investment into chunks over short increments of time (in this...

I still need to look into Fantom, and a few of the others that Coinbase recently added. But Matic is a good option to invest spare funds in. Uniswap's token too, which is a governance token for their DeFi protocol. A nice, easy way to get exposure to DeFi without having to actually participate...
