There's a bit more to what happened than the article lets on. The contract mints to provide liquidity (supposedly). There was 1.8m tokens at the time of the crash, now theres 26Trillion. you would need all the capital in the world to g

Oracles have come a long way and very interesting work is being done to solve this problem. You don't always have to rely on one oracle and the amount of capital you'd need to 'trick' an oracle is too high to be economic

I don't think UBI is ever the answer and the article hints at that. Giving the low paid workers 'bargaining power' doesn't negate the points OP made. Flooding the economy with free money to everyone also doesn't hol

The risk-adjusted return is just whether the contract gets hacked or not. You get a yield for providing liquidity. Granted that yield might be 4-7%, but it's not risky in the traditional sense of i could 'Lose' a percentage l

>NFTs have no mechanism to define originality, or even atomicity. It always links to a wallet and thus proves originality. You're right, anyone can mint a mona lisa and claim it's a van gogh, but if it wasn't minted using
