100 blocks wait? Or coinbase the company?
I guess what youâre saying is: heâs saying they should investigate whether itâs possible to lose something by sitting out. And yeah that sounds like a good recommendation. Maybe it actually is too much to expect him to include the ways they could possibly lose in his thesis. Sounds sassy but I mean that haha. Especially if itâs theoretically possible but hard to come up with the way since it doesnât currently exist.
If youâve read Enderâs Game, think about Enderâs relationship with the Buggers and how it compares to this guy.
Is someone an evil terrible person if they think itâs actually the opposite side of the conflict doing that, not the one you think?
It sounds like a good idea, but I think once you get into the details itâs just the same thing with more steps, except worse.
Specific transactions existing on chain is what happens when a wallet signs a transaction, and that message is broadcast with enough fee to get incorporated.
If you can hack the wallet, you can make the super secret and secure thing do the thing. What did we just do then.. we separated a successful hack (or leak) of the wallet from the action by a set amount of time? We presumably have hardware control of the super secret and secure thing, so thereâs no reason we need bitcoinâs time chain to accomplish this - we can use local hardware.
Further, dismissing new technology is actually a vital part of not wasting resources.
Iâm not saying they shouldnât spend a few minutes realizing the above, but I donât see any hint of power-monopolizing potential of some Bitcoin controlled logic that would create some huge first mover advantage. If nothing is at stake from ignoring it, then we absolutely should ignore it to focus on stuff with stakes.
Saying we canât just dismiss tech (and thereby invoking AI take off, nukes, the machine gun, drones, etc. in the minds of the listeners - which are all technologies which were actually power monopolizing) isnât enough in of an argument in this case, making it as far as I can tell an initially exciting but actually disappointing distraction.
What a painful reality, although itâs more the case with the kuffaar than with the Muslims. For us, we mostly realised how much we still loved each other with all our differences. For the most part.
But for the âBitcoin Spaceâ, best believe, we can see⊠https://video.nostr.build/eb22fa75c160ed41b5083e3ebab4e242594089e0f30d87cfa6afe8af9c3d6824.mp4
âYou can know in 5 seconds whether the person youâre talking to is a terrible person or notâ - made me laugh. Didnât watch for long enough to figure out which side of what conflict this guy is on.
But for real we need đ«đ« not division and hate, especially after nothing more than a 5 second window into what another person is thinking.
I agree, but thatâs all about the reduced revenue side of private money. He seems to be saying that the state itself benefits from owning and mining bitcoin⊠somehow. Emphasis on this somehow part
I donât believe softwar theory is fully baked. How exactly would that work? Why donât they just shoot them still?
I had the same reaction lol
Before reading this scifi where data is stored on a glass like thing that needs to be inserted into the reader would have sounded kinda old school. Not so much after.
Good on ya imo
Yeah I wanted that within a few days of it coming out- did I miss something though?
