>MakerDAO has no ability to block individual holders' DAI tokens. ENS DAO and ENS root multisig owners have no way to revoke your registered ENS .eth name address or take control o…

>they can now hold a USD pegged asset non custodially Nope, this is wrong. Any stablecoin is necessarily centralized in order to maintain the peg, in the case of DAI it has a "cust…

>I think you misunderstand DAI. Saying the point of DAI is to accumulate crypto is like saying the point of a car is to accumulate oil. No, I understand it perfectly. The only purp…

No, gold actually has a real demand derived from legitimate commercial uses. If it didn't, and the only reason you were buying it was to try and dump it off on other investors for …

If you figured out all those variables, they would have to be legally enforced by a legal authority -- meaning there wouldn't be a purpose to use an NFT as a "blockchain authority"…

Software developers should universally reject payment in crypto, but especially monero. I know I would if you tried to pay me with that. It's the same situation as tornado cash. By…
