I would love to have a way for my bank to hold my crypto for me, with the same amount of insurances and security audits as they have for other assets. The "be your own bank" idea which crypto offers was one of the reasons it has t

Not to mention that most of those have servers in the EU which will not be affected by this. Sure they could raise prices there, but since this would just subsidize US costs a local competitor would have a competitive advantage. What this n

I disagree. As a private person I would feel a lot more secure if I could pay someone to safely hold my cryptocurrency for me. I trust my bank a lot more than I trust myself to keep things safe. This seems to be a controversial opinion in t

Just a single outside lawyer we consulted with :) We already had processes in place for dealing with BSD. The reason for consulting with a lawyer was to ensure that we didn't do anything wrong which would later require us to open up so

That's true. Releasing other open source software using GPL software is much simpler. But if it's desirable to deploy closed source software GPL may not be the right choice unless you have time to sit down and consider the legal r

Where do you get the $150,000 figure from? I would disagree that the situation is the same. The way to remedy the BSD situation is simple attribution. The way to remedy the GPL situation is release of the entire source code. >> Worse,

The process was figuring out that we in no way mix any GPL code with our own code. As long as we don't do that it's fine but we still have to make sure every time we touch anything GPL'ed. My personal opinion is that it'

This is probably gonna be a controversial view but my experience is this as well: Deploying GPL code is a legal process. Deploying BSD is a development process. We spent thousands of dollars on legal advice when deploying GPL. In the end it

Thank you! I've been looking for this video for quite a while! It's a fantastic video for explanation for how the economy actually works.

I live in Denmark where we have had phonebased money transfers for years now (since around 2013 I believe). I've used splitwise for tracking purchases at a festival where whoever had money on them would buy beer or food and we would ju

We did that - paying existing businesses to move out as we grew. Took over one floor. Took over the next. And the next. And the next. Ran out of floors. Then the offices started filling up more and more. And more. Top management started loo

I can't wait to get my hands on one of these. If they work out as I expect them to I could see my company buying several 100 of these a year.

Perhaps Apple will launch a thunderbolt-to-thunderbolt adapter to make it work.
