I convinced my cousin when she witnessed bitcoin on chain is faster and cheaper than wiring money from her bank
Has there been any significant progress toward using Bitcoin’s purported Turing complete semantics to implement smart contracts general enough to support something like Silk Road? I ask in part because while wondering what became of Nick Szabo (who went all-but-silent on social media a few years ago) I ran across the above article that, in the process of debunking the idea Nick is Satoshi (which Nick has also denied), linked to a video demonstrating Turing capability which Nick seemed to deny in a prior public appearance.
I would go back in time and make sure the Rhineland remained demilitarized. No Munich agreement in 1938. No guarantee to Poland in 1939. Go back to 1914. Great Britain should have remained neutral. 1916. USA should not have sent troops to France and Belgium. I would start there.
