#Crypto #Cryptocurrencies #Bitcoin #Blockchain: "He had decided that the crypto world “combined a cult with a financial instrument” and attracted a cluster of computer people who didn’t understand finance. The blockchain? “Explain to me why you’d ever do business with somebody you don’t trust.” In his experience as a trader, the people who made the best traders were the “Fat Tony” types, often working class, short on formal education but long on street smarts. (This is possibly Taleb’s favorite archetype. Fat Tony, in the Incerto, is a fictional character who debates Socrates and embodies a kind of idealized yeoman folk wisdom.) The not-so-good traders were the technical math whizzes who lacked Fat Tony’s natural understanding of contingency and risk, and clung to rules and certainties. “You know, they want certainty, certainty, certainly trustless network and then you blow up the world because you want certainty here. OK. But then you create, you have all this uncertainty that you’re not capturing,” he said."

"Of course, companies like Coinbase offer ways to buy, sell, and transfer cryptocurrency swiftly. But they’re a centralized third party administrator! Institutions like banks could continue to arise, because they make it easier for unsophisticated users to navigate the complicated world of crypto.

#mastodon is so downbeat today. Everyone is sad about new technology - not because of it's value - but because of it's capacity to be abused. I haven't heard a single #blockchain toot in many weeks. Where's all the "AI on the blockchain" posts? Oh yeah, that's probably not very practical.

Hackers have managed to steal $500,000 worth of tokens from layer-2 scaling solution Arbitrum’s March 23 airdrop. The theft was carried out through the use of vanity addresses, customized cryptocurrency addresses that contain specific words or phrases chosen by the user to make them more personal and identifiable. While vanity addresses offer a level of personalization and identification, their safety is questionable, as they can compromise the security of users’ private keys.

I thought it was just me! I also thought it was supposed to be hidden until you go down the tree of a post, but it really doesn't.

We are reaching points with the #fediverse similar to #blockchain. You need to decide whether it is better to implement something at a protocol level or application level?

Unlisted and public posts play a role in the federation and social graph of #Mastodon. Should we mess with it, or should apps adapt and filter unlisted posts from our timelines if we turn the feature on? Similar to how apps allow us to hide boosts from certain timelines?

"So what are decentralized social media? They are based on blockchain technology and operate on independent servers."

#mastodon #fediverse #decentralization #floss #oss #blockchain

source https://blog.prototypr.io/2023-ux-ui-design-trends-67fdf6b3043d

Recently some Twitter users decided to move into a different social network called Mastodon. What’s unique about this solution is its architecture — it is decentralized.



So what are decentralized social media? They are based on blockchain technology and operate on independent servers. They are not in the hands of a corporation. Instead, their users make all the decisions surrounding their operation and networking.

Der #Web3-Event von #SwissRe, #GDI und #IBM mit #a16z uvam. ist vor allem eines: Sehr einseitige PR zur Gelder-/Kundengewinnung für nicht nachhaltige Geschäftsmodelle:

"Mit uns als den neuen Gatekeepern brauchst du die alten #Gatekeeper nicht mehr! Ach ja, und hinter den Gate haben wir irgendwas mit #dezentralisiert und #Blockchain. Glaube ich. Bringt so, wie wir es nutzen nichts, sind aber gute #Hype-Buzzwords, nicht?"

The Next Web: How can organisations create real value with Web3?


About the event

The stakes are unevenly distributed. Today’s internet favours big, centralised organisations over the individual user. Luckily, decentralised, more autonomous infrastructures have started to shift the needle toward a more user-controlled environment: blockchains, cryptocurrencies, NFTs… 

That development is very welcome. For in the future, we will need an internet which enables people to take control of their digital lives. One which unlocks opportunities for everyone, not just big players. In fact, the next web must be one that encompasses digital assets, decentralized finance, blockchain, tokens, and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). These are the tools to enable a more equal distribution of power.  

Swiss Re, the Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute (GDI), and IBM Research who are at the forefront of technological development and innovation have joined forces and gathered leading experts to answer some of the most pressing questions around the next web:


    Why do we need another web? 
    What are the key drivers in the shift to the next web? 
    What are the opportunities and challenges for companies? 
    Who will be the new gatekeepers, users, and creators? 
    What will we be doing in the Metaverse in the future?

@hpk great blog article! Haven't seen the #AI hype compared to #blockchain hype yet, but makes a lot of sense unfortunately

@rysiek Methinks those oversimplified technical solutions to social problems divide up roughly like this:

70% "Build an app"
10% "Use #drones"
10% "Use #blockchain"
10% "Use #AI"

We'll probably see the fourth one grow and the others (especially blockchain) shrink over the next few years.

@storytracer talking about the non-profit collaboration tools that #SUCHO has migrated to. Downside: they don't run themselves. But we're the people who can run them as #DigitalHumanities folks! Mastodon has sparked imagination that we can take control. We can provide a counter-narrative to "more #blockchain and more #AI", and if you provide a compelling alternative and show people what's possible, they'll chip in. #DHd2023

@djlink A huge amount of capital in #crypto does indeed sit on the #blockchain. Bank collapses actually kind of indicate why that is good. But:

1) Exchanges need access to fiat

2) Tokens which are tied to fiat need to have fiat

In both cases it should be considered a very good thing that they are sitting on fiat: that's the premise for how they work. Other projects too have fiat for practical reasons.

Using the collapse of #SVB to critique crypto is pointing fingers in the wrong direction.

Tbh if you were against the #NFT and #blockchain crap because of its energy requirements, you should be against #ChatGPT and most other currently hyped #AI crap.
If you aren't, I'm really curious what you're doing that you think makes the energy expenditure worthwhile.

@liztai I think #SVB could really demonstrate one reason why holding your own wallet and #crypto is valuable. Holding in a bank can always mean a loss of funds. Banks are inherently risky, and centrally controlled. But having your own #blockchain wallet means nobody is leveraging or controlling your money.

Of course there is value risk, for the moment, but given time that is likely to stabilise if the industry does.

#Blockchain just holds your #crypto, it doesn't lend it out.

On one hand, the #blockchain #crypto #NFT folks should *really* take a seat for the #SVB discourse...

🆕 blog! “Offline Digital Currency Transactions”

Wouldn't it be good if digital currencies worked offline? I'm going to talk through a proposed user experience, and then discuss how it would work in practice. Let us imagine a future digital currency ₢. It might be fiat, it might be crypto, doesn't really matter. Alice loads up a smartcard with ₢100 and locks […]

Davon findet man aber nichts im Artikel. Ausser einem «Pilotprojekt», in dem drei simulierte Parteien einander innert 10 Sekunden eine Nachricht schicken konnten. Ohne Erklärung zur Skalierung oder wieso das nur mit #Blockchain ging.

Eine #Blockchain ist:
1️⃣ Sequenz von Datenblöcken
2️⃣ Gruppe von Berechtigten
3️⃣ Mechanismus zur Konsensbildung
Absichtlich unflexibel und kompliziert.
