That's a fair question, and really I think it comes down to degrees of trust. As you say, ultimately I as the creator of the tokens could possibly utilize my update authority to change some of the underlying metadata for the token. T

In my case, if arweave allows for digital pieces to disappear from the web, then that means they've likely failed as a project considering they've positioned themselves to be a permaweb. However, interestingly if you leverage the

Not quite. It acts as an access token, in about the purest sense, kind of like an auth token in traditional webapps. I could revoke access by blacklisting the NFT if I really, really wanted to I suppose, but I don't in this specific se

I someday hope that people realize what you can do with single issue tokens beyond simply having a link to cloud storage. You can create products that utilize this same behavior, but also leverage proof of ownership to create actual unique

I've definitely seen these sentiments in the crypto space, it's really obvious if you even dip your toes into it that you will see these kinds of opinions and groupings. I also share some of the opinions that you're laying ou

No problem, I've been doing basically solo research and experimentation for the past few months so it's fun to at least share a bit of knowledge I've accrued along the way. For as to why Solana - it's a combination of me

I understand the concern of centralization on the Solana chain, it is a very valid concern. However, I would like to remind you that Ethereum used to be similarly centralized (of course it has been PoW to date so far, however the hashing po

Check out other chains than Ethereum, this is really only an Ethereum scalability problem. Transactions on Solana for example cost a fraction of a cent and execute much quicker than ETH transactions.

I only have experience in Ethereum, in terms of writing smart contracts. For Solana, I've yet to create an onchain program but understand some of the key differences between the ecosystems (please note, I am by no means an expert. I&#x

I unfortunately don't have an easily available reference really, it's all stuff I architected really myself. I can give a quick rundown though. For the authentication side: authentication, is simply connecting your wallet. Since e

I've been brainstorming a lot honestly about the implications that simple proof of identity and proof of ownership can really imply. I honestly might try my hand at creating a full out replacement for existing authorization techniques

There's also arweave, which is similar to IPFS. I've been hoping to migrate my application to being hosted entirely on arweave, or at least test it out to see how it works in practice. If it works how I think it works, then I can

Yeah, there are some marketplaces that are trying to only curate high quality projects, and others that are more open to accepting any project. It's actually pretty crazy right now, there's so many ongoing independent projects tha

I think that it'll be hard to create something in web3 that topples the existing centralized communication platforms, but think that it is possible to compete in technologies arising native to the web3 space. In other words, I think th

Sure, the legal mechanisms around such a thing isn't too much on my mind when I'm making this argument, as ultimately I believe the government is incapable of introducing any legal mechanisms outside of the ongoing antitrust case

It does seem like a pretty good metaphor for what it is like. Thank you for sharing, I've never seen this comic before and I think it does a great job at communicating the message the author was trying to get across.

I guess, the underlying principal in my mind is around the intent of why they are removing such a feature, when it has very valid uses even as a consumer of content. I understand some of the issues with the upvote/downvote concept in t

There are probably easy loopholes to get around your suggestion. Just form another LLC and purchase the property under that LLC instead of you as an individual, then each entity owns only one property, so they get the standard tax rate inst

I think you have to think about your own personal experiences in education. It's a shared burden that most people in this country have to go through a terrible K-12 system, and for many, being separated into a group of kids that at lea

Yeah, they are comparable, but there is definitely a difference, from both an end user, and developer. The flow is similar - you have to have a wallet, and you have to authenticate it. But really, that's about it. From an end user pers

I've been working on Solana and Ethereum dapps and it does rely on browser extensions at the moment (MetaMask or Phantom wallet for example). But basically they expose an API that lets you connect a wallet. In one app I'm working

I haven't thought of combining access tokens with biometrics, that could actually be pretty slick. I have no real exposure to WebAuthn, but yeah the more I work in the 3.0 space the more I think that NFTs are one the most misrepresente
