3 days in ATX, May 16-18 (after btc++)
how does this differ from ark? seems extremely similar
thinking about talent/eocsystem mismatches 🤔
ah, also: note that in order to setup the covenant, you’re going to need to make a tx. you can’t just start sending hashes around without at least one party committing something to chain ⛓️
that’s certainly an ideal form, but i havent seen a protocol proposal that achieves that. i might be behind the times tho
do you have a link to where you saw that proposal?

Paul Storzc is a very well educated economist; I am not aware of his dev skills
there are many paths to greatness, fighting to change what came before you is an evergreen one for sure
definitely makes me reconsider revolutionaries and their movements. GK Chesterton was really onto something with his fence parable i think (if you see a fence, do you knock it down and find out why the fence was there, or do you try to find out “why fence” before taking action)
bitcoin forks will continue forever, the struggles of the mighty are unending
I fully expect a highly regarded fork to exist by 2050
good news: there’s still the timestamp bug 🐛
ossification is a terrifying thing if you’re young and view it as the old guard shutting out a path for you to take to make a mark on the world
