Illegal transactions are also 11-12% of the USA's economy.[1] In 2019, forex volume was $6.6T per day [2], or $1716T per year. Meanwhile global GDP was only $87.5T [3]. In other words, almost 95% of global currency volume is speculat

Companies like FTX collapsing do negatively affect the space. But what's even worse is companies like FTX that are irresponsible and haven't collapsed yet. What's a guy to do? I warned people last year not to use FTX. Now FTX

If a person wants an industry to succeed, they will want companies in the industry to behave honestly. And if a company behaves dishonestly, they will want the dishonest company to leave that industry. Why is that so hard to believe?

My suggestion would not measure the copies themselves, but it would count how many bytes are the source/destination of copies (of course incl. other things like parameters/etc). It's not the exact same metric, but it does sti

I've run into frustrating stack overflows in seemingly trivial non-recursive code, so I appreciate this effort! I wonder if it might be simpler to track stack sizes statically instead of using runtime instrumentation. What I mean is, f

You have a point, but I think you're underestimating how "very easy" of a process an audit is. It's a mountain of time-consuming work for everyone involved. Their audits are encompassing more and more each time. They&#x2

You're right, there is no way to cryptographically prove that there are no contracts external to the blockchain. The audit is from a purely "not your keys, not your coins" perspective. And there's no way to prove they wo

You're 100% right, and that bad feeling you have is a sign that you understand where both sides are coming from. This is why so many people say "not your keys, not your coin". Giving up control of your keys is never the best

Their audits operate on the principle of "your keys = your coin". That's good enough for me. But you have a point and that's why they listed it as a caveat. If you want them to open the rest of their books, I guess we&#x

Come on man. That's an old article. It was true of the audit being reported on at the time, but their most recent audit was more comprehensive. Again, just open the links I posted if you want to see how things have changed since then.

Because, you see, if power transmission is optional, we can manufacture a cable without it for 37¢ instead of 39¢. Think of the savings! ... yes, I hate it too :(

Kraken does at least. AIUI their auditor is given a snapshot of all account balances at a particular point in time, and builds a merkle tree. You can then reconstruct your expected merkle leaf and verify that your specific account was inclu

It's pretty hard to estimate the number of users from just on-chain data, since change from a transaction usually goes to a fresh address. That makes every single transaction appear to create a fresh "wallet".

Yep, this factoid goes in cycles just like the price. If anyone is interested in diving deeper, the indicator to look at is called MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value). During time periods when it's less than 1, the average investor i
