How much trading volume does tether have compared to "bitcoin + all the other cryptos"? Answer: a lot, Tether is the unit of account. If something happens to it the crypto space explodes as the volume of real dollar trades in cryp

Because the majority of crypto trades are done in Tether.

Except the attestations have stopped saying how much cash they have in their accounts and now just say that Cricle _claim_ they have enough assets to cover the liabilities. This is a HUGE change and massively cause for alarm.

Yes, Red team played like peak Iran - but the actual purpose of the Millennium Challenge was to wargame Iraq no matter what might have publicly been said.

The Millennium Challenge was a farce but _the Millennium Challenge was completely right_. The point of the millenium challenge was to see if modern advances in C3 could allow a numerically inferior force to the one used in Desert Storm coul

To say I am sceptical of the idea that we used to regularly wake up in the pitch black of night and do stuff is an under statement.

I'll publish soon. I think my real invovation for ScamStableCoin is that I won't actually ever let anyone convert ScamStableCoin to USD. That way my lack of actual cash will never be exposed.

The NYAG said they were liars who had comitted multiple acts of fraud and fined them. There have been precisely 0 (zero, none) completed audits of Tether's holdings

Yes, that is the scenario I am describing. I have a billion dollars of liabilities in the ScamStableCoins I issued and a billion dollar in "Assets" from the IOU I wrote myself. THus I am perfectly fully backed.

The level of detail they have given for "Commercial Paper" means that it is worthless. Commercial paper makes up about 50% of Tether's balance book.

I run ScamStableCrypto. I create a billion ScamStableCoins and claim they are worth $1 each. I give a billion ScamStableCoins to ScamCryptoExchange. ScamCryptoExchange is run by me. ScamCryptoExchange writes an IOU for one billion US doll

by Marazan 5y ago
What if the commercial paper was IOUs from cryto-exchanges that were issued in return for un-backed Tether. The IOU then being treated as backing. What if "crypto-exchanges" just means Bitfinex and no-one else. You notice that th

Mpc Beats (free version of the full MPC software) has a work flow that meshes well with me. Only restriction is 8 seperate instrument tracks max but its not like I'm doing anything more than drums, samples, bass and melody anyways.

UML's problem is that it is boxes-and-lines. The trouble with boxes-and-lines is that they work fine for small problems and collapse in a mess of overlapping nonsense for complex situations. This is not a UML specificthing. Any visual

Yes, truly one of the best computer wargame ever made. So many very, very clever decisions went into its design.

Sure, but TE talked about the OP-1 as a 20 year project. The idea they paid the tooling costs for the body and then just slapped some remaindered displays on them stretches credulity.

I've no problem with a company pricing a product to be what the market will bear. However, Teenage Engineering claiming they were jacking the price due to "supply issues" is just insulting.

Exactly, the original comment I was replying to was suggesting we'd have "full self driving" where the autonomous vehicles were on completely seperate roads that humans didn't use. If a robot can't deal with a human

Not in "full self driving" mode. Because they don't have a full self driving mode.

"Full self driving cars" that require a seperate set of infrastructure to operate are not "Full self driving cars" This is a fundamental thing. Robot cars that can't interact with humans without killing them at a gr
