Stellar isn't a direct replacement per-se, it's fast and has near zero transaction fees, but the lumens themselves were not intended to be used as a medium of transaction, only to have a token amount to pay the miniscule fees with

It's a credit card problem, even if the donation is in crypto, the patrons need to buy that, and unless they're using cash or direct bank transfer its probably going to be by card. The only way to lower the fixed fees is to convin

I was wondering that too, the best I could come up with is that the unused part of the rectangle represents the remainder we haven't "pulled down" yet, so in the first iteration, 0.17 I don't think its important to the c

True, I imagine a lot of software wouldn't know how to handle an email without a dot in the domain part That and apparently ICANN would frown upon such an implementation [1] [1] https://www.icann.org/news/announcem

This isn't news. Chat and messaging are one and the same. You can message anyone, and you can migrate conversations arbitrarily between the chat and message UI, or even both at the same time. If you message someone who you don't have good r
