   This is why Uniswap's data is much more valuable than centralized exchanges. On-chain trading permits a degree of transparency and trustworthiness not readily feasible with centralized exchanges. Centralized exchanges are incentivize

   1. Why don't passworded websites provide their own password generators? There's "secure" entropy generation available to JavaScript, e.g. `Crypto.getRandomValues(Uint8Array)`. 2. Shouldn't the only variable for pas

   I feel that I'm usually pretty cautious with my "bets". I would not have bet Microsoft would be implementing Linux in any capacity in 2021, even though I would consider myself a Linux fanboy since ~2002. I have zero doubt.

   Ethereum is solving the layer 1 energy problem with PoS, and solving scaling with sharding, L2's, and new types of zero knowledge proofs. As someone watching the space since the beginning, imho, Ethereum has it in the bag.

   For whatever reason, I see a large majority down voting a video. I can then use my own judgement to speculate on the reasoning. What's the "game"?

   This is an astoundingly cowardly decision. It's akin to holding an election and only revealing the votes of the winner. Shame on Google. A far better solution would be allowing more metrics into downvotes. How many of the downvotes c

   I'd be interested in helping if anyone is working on a project. I'd also like to see this done web-wide.

    I've previously named Tether "rat poison" and I hope they are regulated/banned. Tether is an easy problem to "solve", and imho, should fall under existing regulation. However, I would love to see an explanatio

    This year Ethereum has so far settled over $6 trillion in value on chain. And the system has revenues. Ethereum did around $35 million daily in fees this last week. Uniswap did around $3 million. https://cryptofees.info/

    "QR code" is a trademark of Denso Corporation, and refers to a specific technology. I'm unsure why news sources continue to misreport that the data is stored in "QR code". The correct term is "2D barcode"

    Firstly, Tether is rat poison. Unfortunately, newcomers to the space identify "stable coins" = "tether" or wrongly assume that other stablecoins share similar mechanisms. There are many alternatives that operate radica

    That's a dangerous bet. If you're wrong, the consequences are dire. If you're right, there's not much upside compared to being prepared for being wrong. That's not a reasonable calculation.

    If you "measure" the bits per character in the base 45 alphanumeric encoding used in QR code, you'd get 5.5 bits per character as 11 bits is used for two characters. How is it possible to have information less than a bit, a p
