Do you have any proof? The US authorities have literally shown in court they have vast sums backing tethers. Bifinex itself is a money printing machine. I'd love to take some serious 5 figure wagers with the people who say this stuff.

Quality reply, thankyou. > So, you need other cryptographers to review it, several sets of eyes looking for flaws. That's a real problem with no easy solution, for every "new" cryptographer trying to implement a cryptosyst

I'm using the phrase in the sense of create or implement your own, play with it, not actually using it for critical applications. The world badly needs more cryptographers and their eyes on code whether from a purely academic backgroun

While I want to commemd this comment, it all seems to have lit a bonfire of programmer-tier anger, so will still retaliate: People aren't using shit crypto, virtually no one is using anything other than what is highly vetted or otherwi

That was most certainly not the point made here. Go contribute to libsodium, go contribute to any reasonably well used crypto library, you've now got a big red dot on your back from an assortment of governments in perpetual conflict. I

> The CIA does not care if you play with libsodium. Cryptographers are easy meat for lions. Care to place a long-standing bet on that? 20yrs or so? We can find a solid reasonable middleman here surely? They very much do care. I'm wi

How does one become a cryptographer then? Do the people who perpetuate this meme with no basis not realise the clear and present danger it presents to humanity? Yes certainly don't use homerolled crypto in production. More importantly

Everything he's said publicly flies in the face of what we know about Satoshi. The guy is a massive fraud and charlatan, yet it funds his lifestyle. The absolute state of the world where people like this can exist.

My experience in very poor metropolises across the plamet is that it's an entirely simple problem to solve. My experience in some of the most expensive cities on Earth is that providing housing for the poor devalues the only nestegg m

Also a schism between those who benefit somewhat and those who don't. For many countries this is also a domestic divide rather than the traditional nationalism soaked debate that most people or news orgs focus on. Southern US stands to

They can't possibly do that with a bank account though? In the sense that a collapse would see you get cents in the dollar back, hopefully the taxpayer pays the rest if you are lucky. You can pay them for a safe deposit box and they ca

I use both discord and mumble regularly, mumble is consistently better and it's run on a tiny vps that's doing other reasonably demanding cpu and network tasks at the same time. Discord can go from great to terrible pretty quickl

It's this generations fusion power. I think many are seriously underestimating the engineering breakthroughs needed for a computer that can break 2048 bit RSA. Hopefully I'm proven wrong.
