    You can have 99% of validators on Ethereum censor your transaction, and you'll still be eventually included. With 12 second block times, your transaction would be included in rough…

    I think you're missing part of the story with stocks like NVDA. The value of a stock is also based on expectations, so it could be that all of NVDA's growth for the next decade has…

    You'd want to use a KYC'd L2 that is still secured by the L1. The consortium would just validate transactions on the L2, and the security overhead is payed for by publishing to L1,…

    The actual blockchain usecase here is far less sexy than a dystopian eyeball scanning device: https://attest.sh/

    To use the Sun, the focal point would have to be situated about 542 AUs. Certainly not impossible, and the resolution would be quite good, good enough to see surface details of an …

    Value investing is being right when everyone else is wrong, and waiting until everyone realizes you were right all along.

    As someone who is in airplane engineering, the biggest barrier today to building a new aircraft is regulations. But if we completely ignored regulations, and you were building a mo…

    The entire point of debt is to bring future revenue to the present so that you don't have to wait for savings to trickle in every year.

    How is USDC a scam? Or how about DAI? Also, when I say stablecoins, I am also referring to CBDC's. Anyways, not everyone has a bank account (your viewpoint is very Western centric)…
