Addicts usually have underlying childhood and/or adult traumas to numb their pain so it isn’t surprising. But surprisingly, if used in the right context, intentions and dose, psychedelics can help with the underlying traumas and addict

Yup. One thing that I find respectable about Ethereum, contrary to what many Bitcoiners say, is that it’s always trying to find the minimum viable issuance, with less and less issuance, that makes the chain work effectively. Bitcoin on the

Personally, I’m glad I jumped right into going to a Ayahuasca retreat to kickstart the emotional and spiritual side of things with my own healing journey. Cannabis is no longer appealing, and it actually feels a little numbing, and would pr

I don’t understand who is the one being “scammed” when a person runs a consensus and execution layer clients along with their 32 ETH? They attest and propose blocks so that users’ transactions get included in the blocks. If you’re talking a

LN UI is crap unless you use custodial services. People can just use zk privacy to anonymize, and run their own nodes to connect their web3 wallets to.

It’s actually one of the biggest points of Proof of STAKE. People put ETH on the line, a substantial risk, to act accordingly to the rules set by nodes. Early adopters and the most passionate reap the rewards by buying earlier, and securing

Only for now, because the minimum is 32 ETH to solo stake. Even then, people can run Rocket Pool minipools with 8 ETH and eventually, it’ll go down even more. And if you still don’t have enough, you can just buy rETH so you get block reward

LN isn’t even scalable. And even then, the data wouldn’t be saved on-chain which is the main driving point when compared to NFTs on Ethereum which are just links. On-chain will always have more value compared to inferior ways on L2, similar

Yeah naw. Bitcoin worked just fine without this Bank 2.0 LN crap that can’t even scale. Ordinals wouldn’t even exist without Segwit. 0-conf worked just fine for immediate transactions.

Yup. Plus, I don’t want to use Lightning, and prefer web3 wallets instead, and the core Nostr protocol is made up of bitcoiners sooo..

Other than the tech, one big thing that’s kept me away from Nostr is the people on it. I’d rather not have my feed spammed and have Bitcoin maxis endlessly talking about how stacking Bitcoin is great. What makes social network work is the d

Vitalik’s roadmap is an overall view of all the work happening in parallel and some nice to haves; it’s not an official roadmap for Ethereum. At the end of the day, the specs are defined by the community and implemented by the 10 independen

Should’ve just increased the blocksize, instead of implementing some crap L2 solution.

Ooh very interesting, thanks for explaining! From reading others replies too, it does looks like client-only mechanism on its own is weak compared to having checks on both the client and server..

Developers can still make the executables available on other centralized servers, decentralized solutions like BitTorrent, etc. The NFT wallet check could happen internally within the game, perhaps some kind of WebView allowing access to br

You can patch the check with binaries? Wouldn’t you need to modify the source and build? I’m not familiar enough with tampering, cracking software like that so I can’t really say.

It wouldn’t work for a native streaming service like Stadia, but I could definitely see it working for Single Player games where all the content is stored in the executable, where there isn’t reliance on centralized servers for content. May

Have an interface that interacts with MetaMask or WalletConnect within the game.

If the game is able to connect to your wallet and confirm internally that you own the game’s token, it could unlock the game without having to rely on a server.
