Just an engineer studying technology and money. Moreover, the translator of Argentarius.

No bag holders, you can’t, as your own website admits you couldn’t detect a bug that actually affected Zcash.

So for all we know your 💩coin is already inflating

Nice, we are at the point where discussion always ends, with Monero heads making up stuff.

No, range proofs insure you not against an inflation bug.

And a layer 2 in this case is the opposite of compromise. You don’t compromise the main layer, thus using a layer 2.

And no, the supply is not twindling. Lost coins are dormant, this doesn’t hurt monetary function at all. It would only be the case if coins were actively taken out of wallets or added in.

GPT-4 is scary…

I use it to help proofread my upcoming book “Bitcoin Nation” and it's uncannily good. In fact, it's at least on par with all the humans I have worked on text with thus far.

Of course, it still has some quirks. E.g., it forgets after a few thousand characters what we are doing, so with every new section I feed it, I need to remind it, “Please continue to proofread”.

But besides that, it does it and unlike humans, it sticks exactly to the level of rewriting and correction that I tell it to use.

The scary bit?

Occasionally, GPT decides to continue the segments I give it, especially if I end a chapter with a rhetorical question, which is a bad habit of mine.

And TBH, sometimes I need to check my own text to see whether I have written this bit or not.

GPT-4 is so good at mimicking my style that it can impersonate me, even to myself.

Some heroes wear Apple Watches apparently.

No, Monero is not cash at all. It doesn’t solve the problems that a cash needs to solve, Monero is unauditable, Inflation bugs are undetectable.

This is why Satoshi built Bitcoin the way he built it. If you think Monero is cash, you say satoshi was an idiot, since he was very much aware of the options Monero choose, but purposely didn’t use because he knew why previous eCash systems failed.

If you understood how great the breakthrough of Bitcoin is, you’d be working on Lightning and not Monero.

So it is an IQ test indeed, but the results are the opposite of what you think. You advocating for Monero shows that you never understood Bitcoin’s innovation to begin with.

A big bowl of cereal with soy milk sounds much nicer though 🤷

@saltndaisy make great Bitcoin granola.

Hard to tell if artist or AI these days, but this looks like Midjourney.
