Based on what I’m reading, not really. Though in principle I think it should be doable. Seems like the current state of ecash is that theoretically the mint has an eternal IOU. I mean eventually it rugs, but having a countdown timer to rug on the nut would be a nice way of communicating that to holders.
Is there a way to have them expire?
"Most people" My neighbor's beliefs, and he has no first hand knowledge about the climate but has beliefs about it, rightly do not update my Bayesian math very much.
It's not surprising to me that x % believe anything. Truth is difficult to ascertain. So I 100% agree that most people see indoctrinated. Nearly everyone is working from someone else's first hand data. Most people just believe what other people believe. Some people just believe the opposite of what everyone believes.
I'm still curious if Snowden is a violation of your world view or expected as he is in mine.
And haha this is lame I know and I’m sorry idk what my problem is but my perception has been that when I opened those links they were not giving a list of questions. But maybe it was the continuing long period of time after the timestamp? Haha I'm falling.

I have lost ecash due to custodial error. Have never lost monero.
lol
The state if government services.
Tell me this doesn't sound like a scam in order to indirectly abduct kids.

Dang
I dunno, I fully expect in a fully bitcoinized world there will still be financial advisors (how to manage your utxos, how to buy parts of companies if you want), bankers (L3), liquidity providers (LSPs), probably everything but fed chairman.
The much bigger factor in job extinction will be AI I think 🫂
I not saying to not have claws.
I agree with you. That all encompassing love is everywhere, and easy to see if you can learn to see. My question though isn’t about our purpose, it’s about evolution, resource utilization, and what our competes successfully against what in the long run 🫂 What am I missing about how reflecting supreme love can make us evolutionarily fit?
Yeah, I would say definitely never do this
I wasn’t talking about using an Internet connect device to sign, I was talking about using your 24 words to sign in a fully off-line way with a new signing device, if your cold card dies
Yeah, there are lots of potential threats of AGI that are silly and some of them are more realistic. Also, some are not very bad and some are really bad I would say.
To put what I’m thinking about more concretely, Elon Musk’s goal for Mars is that if the ships ever stop coming from earth, they will be fine. What does that require… Self-sufficiency. Independence from earth (and humans here) for power, data, raw materials, etc.
So the comparison to the Martian colony, I think should clarify that I’m not imagining a Godlike magical entity at all, obviously humans can do exactly the same thing: create a fully self sufficient hive that is separable from earth. If Musk gets his way that will be a reality this century.
AI will be a big part in making that happen, but if it gets to 100% then the hypothetical science fiction sounding threat becomes possible.
And that is to say nothing about one of these things, becoming smart enough to set up in the meantime a system like what Aldous Huxley described “The perfect dictatorship would have the appearance of a democracy but would basically be a prison without walls in which the prisoners would not even dream of escaping “
You could always recover to a different wallet, but that doesn’t ease the money you’d be out having to buy or build one.
Wow. Yeah hard to know what exactly it is, but even pure yellowcake has “very low radioactivity” though it is dangerous if inhaled. Very cool.
Conscious intelligent replicators give the otherwise dead universe life and meaning. We give it eyes and wonder. Unconscious machine intelligent replicators are cancer.
