A true metaverse will be very difficult to create until we have brain-computer interfaces. All VR devs are entirely focused on the visual/audio output of devices but one very important detail that is missing is the illusory sixth sense

I think Kobe Bryant working on his free-throws from 4 AM to 8 PM every day for decades is much harder work than some dude making dogecoin over a weekend or minting an AI-generated NFT. Wealth is not linear, it's not promised as the res

that's fair, and you actually have an informed view on this matter. The solution you have come to is a fair one (which is that truly developing a decentralized infrastructure that is reasonably priced to run apps on has too many challe

yes you are right, but still: (staking fees && smart contract fees) <<< (overhead of running a multi-billion dollar corporation)

I think you fundamentally don't understand what Ethereum is trying to do if you are thinking like this. I suggest you read the documentation and learn about what the infrastructure actually allows you to do. Ethereum will allow you to

check out some of the DeFi projects for more hands-on applications (they all have githubs too): Sushi, yearn, aave. Right now with the current function invocation costs, ethereum ecosystem cannot support meaningful apps outside of trustless

Yah I totally agree and I don't like the fact that tech giants like Elon & Jack are using their influence to fluctuate the price of crypto so they can make a few bucks. I find it greedy and disgusting. I think these guys have beco

well not sure what this proves, but I guess you can bet against the ethereum developers delivering. I'm personally not making that bet, but if you want to do so, that's your view of the world lol.

You are on YC's forum! I suggest you learn how the price of a product or service changes based on regulation, cost of employees, the amount of money a business owes in loans, basic stuff! More overhead adds to the cost. A smart contrac

not to mention millions of dollars are being loaned out and moved around platforms like yearn and aave right now. There was also a crypto-downturn in their years of operation and these two protocols didn't need "bailouts" to

A decentralized marketplace is more akin to what you would see in ancient bazaars of Mesopotamia. It will allow vendors to collect more money for their service while at the same time allowing customers to pay less for the same service. Thi

no you cannot deploy an uber-like taxi app on AWS for fractions of a cent. More like billions of dollars and thousands of employees plus regulations. It's not just about the deployment infrastructure, it's also about the actual ve

Stop trying to play cute. If smart contracts decentralize services that means that vendors collect money directly from the user with all the middle men reduced to a governable smart contract. What does this mean ? Do you really need handhol

Bitcoin does a lot. A store of value that hedges against government inflation is by definition a valuable service. I don't understand why everyone is looking for a swiss-army knife like application from BTC. The value has already been

just because you don't use it or put in the effort to look at different decentralized projects doesn't mean there are "no use-cases". I think with the amount of activity on AAVE and yearn, plus the growth these projects

Out of curiosity, why do you believe that the learning process is more pronounced with making a real usable product rather than a fun project ?

Yes but for jobs that require emotion like sales, the current Neural Network paradigm is just not gonna cut it. I am never buying from a robot, it’s missing an element of the mind that we still haven’t even categorized the biological side o

Off the top of my head: When paired with a robotic medium, we'll be able to automate most pattern driven jobs like construction, welding, surgery, anything really that doesn't require human element to it and is more of a pattern m

it's difficult to keep up with the design expectations of the modern web with just HTML and CSS. It's possible but extremely difficult to create a "modern" experience with just html. Just like how we don't build hou
