OP listed Zcash which is the same so it seems fair game. I think it's also important to list it as Aztec can interact with DeFi privately and also be programmed which allows for complex interactions and an economy where money goes in a

I wish this was actually sarcasm for most people. I legitimately don't understand why this group of people believe this is a good thing.

Why do you care what software your friend runs? Why do you feel the need to dictate what software someone else runs? This is especially weird because your username is 0xEFF which initially made me think Electronic Frontier Foundation but it

I don't think this will actually be a real problem as you can just sign the call with your identity which renders deep fakes useless.

Binance runs about a dozen staking pools publicly so there are definitely problems with trying to keep pools decentralized.

That's only for an archive node which isn't that useful to the network and is generally only used by specialist. A full Ethereum node easily fits on a 1TB drive and with research ongoing into statelessness the problem of state gro

There really is no recourse if you get caught up in or are maliciously thrown into government bureaucracy which is rather alarming for a modern society. It fosters mistrust in government and in the worst case is a deliberate punishment whic

The base protocol uses 32 ETH for technical reasons but yes, as you said, pools like RocketPool, Lido, etc along with exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, and even everyday banks also allow staking any amount of ETH by anyone to take advantage

By default your validator software picks the unmodified chain unless you install a special update that lets it use the newly forked chain. If you do nothing you continue mining just one chain (the old one) and nothing is lost. If you valida

The difference is that anyone can stake. It's going to be the default way to store ETH akin to a savings account for most people so pretty much everyone is going to share in that PoS issuance. This also doesn't affect new buyers a

Can you give an example of what you mean? There are no attackers or victims in the scenario of the chain forking and a block producer gooing out of their way to mine both chains with the same stake.

>PoS malicious stakers lose nothing in case of a split You can only support one side of a fork in PoS and if you try to play both sides anyone can form a proof showing you mined both forks and your stake gets slashed. This is the Nothing

You keep the existing network effects which are massive.

No. You are probably thinking about Ethereum Classic which has been 51% attacked a few times.

This ended with /s but DNS and other global namespace management systems are actually one of the problems blockchains solve perfectly. We all need to know what the value of some key->value pair is and have that information always av

I have anxiety and it's helped me. This is all anecdotal but my experience lines up with thousands of others in the microdosing community. The clarity also seems to come from living more in the moment and not always half fretting about

I'm sure there is and the microdosing groups probably have it offhand but I'm just a busy dev sharing my personal experience.

How many times does he need to captain a ship to make up for 4 years of lost wages? That's not even accounting for the psychological toll.
