Those 30 transactions per second settle multiple billions in value per day. Even in a bear market folks are spending about a billion per year in transaction fees to have those transactions settled. And a good chunk of that power usage is ju

55 KW is a few racks in a datacenter. Figure 300w per u in a 42u rack, and 4 full racks will use the same amount of power.

The feature I would be interested in is if this can do link state toggling on the on the vxlan interface if the wg handshake timer goes stale. If that works, then it becomes practical to do things like run ospf routing over the vxlan interf

True, but there has to be some kind of limiting definition of 'non-investment security', because otherwise any business offering a 'money back guarantee' when they sell a physical product is selling an unregistered secur

But all those profitable activities aren't being proposed or offered by the issuer, and require additional affirmative actions and effort by the holder, taking on additional risk and interactions with third party entities. Just because

One does not automatically earn a return just by staking eth. A validator with a node has to be operated which performs the validation and block proposal functions, and money is only made when those activities are performed. The eth that is

But such trading based profits come out of the efforts of the trader, not the issuer of the stable coin. Money market accounts have to be securities because most of the time they do offer some yield. If the SEC is going down this road (and

It will be interesting to see how the SEC makes the case that these stable coins are securities when their whole purpose should make them fail the "expectation of profit" prong of the Howey test.

Well, it has a very niche application. It is absolutely the best at what it does, but an air superiority/dominance fighter is not typically useful in the conflicts that the US has been involved in since the F-22 entered service. The fa

The problem is that how well anyone's particular life circumstances fit into a statistical model (or not) can be a very difficult thing to discern. There is a combinatorial explosion of factors that everyone is subject to, and most epi

The disagreement here seems to be "how relevant are the real world costs and profitablity born by ethereum node operators and validators to the overall 'costs' of running ethereum"? You seem to think that is the end all

90+% of the transaction fees are not paid to validators. They are burned or thrown away. That reduces the supply of eth to the benefit of all other eth holders.

by yokem55 4y ago
Ethereum measures its "costs" as issuance paid to stakers while measureing "income" in the amount of eth burned by users via gas fees paid to transact on the network. Since the merge, there has been about 15K more eth bu

https://ultrasound.money tracks this. You can play with the sliders projecting things out depending on how much ether is staked vs what the sustained transaction fees are.

The healthy approach would be that AI models can 'study' code as much as they want and aggregate what they learn into a model. The 'right to read' is a thing. But the end user of the model should take care that the outpu

Is there a way to get rid of the start screen that insists on hanging out after you close the last document yet? I'm probably being a curmudgeon here but it really rankles me needing an extra, unneeded close action to really close thin

There are kamailio setups that just respond to every request with a 200 OK, and then log the source in a db. If you want to get fancy with that you could make it reply to invites with 100 Trying and make them wait a bit for whatever timout

That's because you run into trademark laws, not copyright. Not to mention, if you can make the case that your art of the mouse is Parody, then it falls squarely under fair use.

Money laundering is a crime that (ab)uses privacy. But privacy is not in itself a crime.

There had been chatter that Gemini's Earn product wasn't subject to normal SEC regulation since Gemini was subject to more stringent regulation as a capital-B bank and could offer yield products like any other bank because of that

The main difference between MakerDAO/DAI and Luna/UST is that Maker doesn't accept their native token as collateral. You have to use collaterals external to the protocol which won't inflate in response to where DAI is re

Actual papal elections might be more efficient then this charade. The conditions the cardinals have to work in get progressively more and more austere as balloting goes on.

This is a Binance problem, not a USDC problem. Now if Coinbase were to not honor USDC withdrawals or swaps to normal USD, it would be fair to say somwthing is wrong with USDC, but that is not the case here.

The challenge is that if a discrepency is shown, how do you know who is lying? The whistleblowers or the CT log vendor? A consensus mechanism built on top of the log would be able to show the 'history of the history' to enable fol
