@minemoreapp @starflamegod You replied about as fast as a brit that jusy put the kettle on while the end credits of corrie are barreling down the screen.

@C255Josh @starflamegod Mine more stake more. But whatever you do hodl until it's $Ore season!

Soooo, 16 days since I swapped my bruised and battered CRT (due to Drift exploit), happy to report that $ORE is currently indeed the BEST SoV (Store of Value) choice to preserve what I got left. Was about $650-ish before. And about $950-ish now. (Note to new fams): $stORE below is the LST with yield from staked $ORE. Study @OREsupply asap fams. mORE!⛏️

@DecentraSuze @TheFCA They say they raided these places.... I dont believe them. Probably 8 nerds swapping WoW skins

Today @TheFCA raided eight London sites in its first ever coordinated crackdown on peer to peer crypto trading. Enforcement has now moved onto ordinary individuals operating outside the regulated system. The UK is trying to position itself as a global centre for digital assets centred around stablecoins, tokenisation and institutional adoption. At the same time, the most direct form of decentralised exchange is being pushed into a legal grey area. Individuals trading with one another can find everyday activity interpreted as unlawful once it reaches meaningful scale. There are effectively no P2P traders registered under current AML rules. This creates a tension in UK policy where: - privacy is treated as opacity - self custody is viewed as risk - decentralised systems are judged against rules designed for intermediaries. When there is no realistic route to compliance, enforcement dictates behaviour by default, not by design. These same regulatory and data collection approaches are creating real physical security risks by linking identities to holdings and turning oversight into surveillance. The implications for safety, privacy and surveillance are unprecedented. These regulators will also have to live in the world they create... @BitcoinPolicyUK

@TXMCtrades @nic_carter The only date the Americans get correct, is "the 4th of July", which is ironic as it's Independence Day. DDMMYYYY

@nic_carter We celebrated the changing of the current century globally on Jan 1, 2000 not Jan 1, 2001 so Jeopardy is retarded for this.

This very annoying gotcha question has an answer that is right in a kind of base level pedantic way, but if you want to be _even more_ pedantic, you can determine that it's wrong. The question is: "the calendar date with which the 20th century began" The contestants all answer 01/01/1900 The host smugly informs them they are wrong, it was actually 01/01/1901. Why? because the moment Jesus was born, in the Gregorian tradition, the year 1 AD began - the first year of Jesus' life. Before that it was 1 BC. there was no year 0 in this calendar. So add it all up and the 2nd century began on Jan 1, 101 AD. The 3rd century began on Jan 1, 201 AD. And so on. But this is stupid and, in my opinion, wrong. The right answer is actually, as you suspected, 01/01/1900. the left and right curvers are right. The mid curvers are wrong. Now you might say "but there really was no year zero. the calendar system goes from -1 AD (or 1 BC) to +1 AD, skipping zero." this is trivially true but false in a more real sense. year zero was a completely real year which did actually take place. and it was a very important year, because it was the first year of Jesus' life. (Quick interlude: No one was walking around in those days saying "the year is -3" or "the year is 1". before around 532 AD, people in the West/Roman Empire mainly told time by reference to whoever was in power. Luke 3:1 gives us a timestamp by dating events to "the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar") What Year It Is was a thing made up (in the mainstream Christian tradition at least) in the year 532 AD by a monk called Dionysius Exiguu from Scythia Minor who wanted people to agree when Easter was, and for that we needed to know what year it was. So he decided to count backwards to the birth of Jesus (he got this slightly wrong) and set that as the First Year. Unfortunately, while he was undoubtedly a very clever man for his time, Dionysius (and all of the Romans) didn't know about the number 0, so he started counting ordinally up from 1. So the years literally went -2, -1, 1, 2. Every time you write down the year, you are effectively endorsing this system. His calendar caught on in the church and was adopted by a historian called Bede and took off throughout Europe and that was that. So was there a Year Zero? Well of course there was. All the years from -13.8 billion all the way through to year +532 – which is almost all of the years – were named retroactively. Despite the efforts of well-meaning mathematical illiterates like Dionysius, Year Zero was a real year in which a lot of stuff happened, and I won't stand for its erasure. To think about the question another way, how old was Jesus when He was born? Dionysius – and literally everyone else who thinks the date is April 20, 2026 – would have you think that Jesus was exactly 1 years old when born. Of course, babies are 0 years old until they turn 1. A baby is dated in weeks and months. "But the question as written presupposes the Dionysian interpretation of the calendar" – not necessarily! All it says is "the calendar date with which the 20th century began," But there are plenty of calendars. In the Jewish calendar it's year 5786. The Islamic calendar year is 1447 AH. In China (rarely used) it's 4723. A Roman today might even say it's 2779 AUC (after the founding of Rome). Because these calendars were devised before we had the concept of 0, they also start counting at 1. Many of them don't even have the concept of negative years like BC. Ok, so are we forever subject to the tyranny of zero-less calendars? Does every region of the world agree that somewhere in the past, we skipped a year? The people for whom time precision really matters – namely, astronomers – count the years without gaps. They can't operate in a system that says we just skipped straight from Dec 31, 1 BC to Jan 1, 1 AD. They have two main systems. One is a weird thing where they just increment days forever starting from 6739 years ago called the Julian date. According to that, the day is 2460785.9. But the other thing they do is simply relabel the year to re-insert the Lost Year Zero. According to Astronomical Year Numbering, the year leading up to Jesus' birth is 0, not 1 BC. When astronauts need to reference a year before 1 AD, they have to use this, or they will be off by one day. So in my opinion, if astronomers ever sat down and thought carefully about the boundaries of centuries, they would agree with me. Since they are zero-indexing the years, the first century would have begun in their year 0 or the Gregorian 1 BC. The "first block of 100 years" begins at the start of the modern age, which is year 0. As far as I know, no astronomer has ever contested the concept of a century, but they should. They are willing to insert an additional year into the calendar; they can certainly relitigate the definition of a century. Using this zero-indexed approach you could plausibly and consistently state that the 20th century – the 20th consecutive block of 100 years – began on 1/1/1900. To summarize: * year 0 was a real year, even if you ignore it * Jesus was 0 years old when born * the first century thus started at year 0 * and so the 20th century began in 1900 Now of course the question implies and presupposes the Gregorian calendar and not any other calendar system, but the astronomical calendar is completely real. Alex Trebek and his accomplice Dionysius cruelly deprived those four contestants of several thousand dollars, Jesus of the first year of His life, and you of your intuitions.

@AvgJoesCrypto @solana @Pumpfun @AxiomExchange @phantom @JupiterExchange @BagsApp You do realize that all these applications are built by the same central actors who flow this money back to the same actors that inject it back in again to make the allure that these things are actually profiting. ♻️

.@solana application revenue in Q1 was $342.2 million, the most of any blockchain.

Can’t help but reflect on how much of this mess is a downstream consequence of the rollup centric roadmap and misconceptions promulgated in the interest of “alignment”. For years users were told: - “L2s are just Ethereum”. Except when shit hits the fan we learn L2 assets are very much junior to mainnet - “Rollups share a security zone”. Only if you use the canonical bridge… which nobody does because the roadmap was launched when the tech was unusable 7 day bridges. - “Every app needs their own chain”. An explosion of marginal chains exposing a huge surface area of often barely maintained infra. The hack started on a chain with just 47 rsETH. Why does that chain exist? - “Ethereum is the world’s most economically secure asset”. Now we have a million restaking wrappers each with their own vulnerability surface, many treated as secure as ETH. All to support barely any demand

@WrappedBTC Centralised off and on again chain.

Following the recent rsETH incident involving LayerZero, we are taking precautionary measures to ensure WBTC users safety. WBTC OFT service via LayerZero will be temporarily paused. Service will resume once the root cause is identified and it is confirmed safe to proceed. Updates will follow.

@joanithejourno @ZJow142757 @ronin21btc Higher GDP than England at the moment.. Probably because their workers get to work earlier than Uk knobheads that can't understand how merging works. Let's ask the poles how they do slip roads and moving back to the inside line after an overtake.

@ZJow142757 @ronin21btc In Poland you had communism until very recently and had to send your people to the UK to earn any money which is the only reason Poland isn’t still a shithole. You then banned the immigration from which you benefited. Why tf does Poland have anything to do with anything?

Can we just normalise using both lanes

@udiWertheimer It's the same answer to "who really needs a decentralised ledger"

ok so this is going to annoy some people but why is defi necessary

@work_worth This guy has wok hay... And no induction stove. @MrNigelNg be proud.

A guy rushing for his train ordered egg-fried rice. Chef grabbed the wok, blinked, and BOOM, rice in the box. Sheer speed. No drama⚡️ You gotta be crazy about your job to be this good.

@Crypt0Fred When? Today?

$ORE was $700 for a fraction of seconds and returned back to the original price. 🤯 Orellions 💎⛏️

@2BJDJ All this presumes that "the system" functions omnipotently.. Then you realise that civil servants and "the system" are institutionally inept. British term = can't organise a piss up in a brewery

It is a very rare passport indeed. I wish I'd had this knowledge before my boy was born. This is how we must proceed in numbers. Stop contracting with the system. Reject the system!

@pokerchessman Is voble essentially a new frontend for ore mining or just a seperate project using ore?

I gotta say both omnipair and voble integrations with ore are gonna be bangers imo.

@trader1sz Address farming on point.

@btc_charlie Will be a draw.

Chelsea to win. This should be an easy one. Who you got?

@mrcauliman So you're telling me that xrp liquidity is just bagholders?

Solana just opened its doors to $XRP. Not by replacing it. By plugging into it. Here’s what that actually means: $XRP stays on the $XRP Ledger. A wrapped version, backed 1:1, is now usable on Solana. You can take your $XRP and put it to work inside Solana’s DeFi. Liquidity pools. Lending. Yield. Collateral. Same asset. More utility. For Solana. It gains access to $XRP liquidity and one of the largest holder bases in crypto. For $XRP. It expands beyond its native rails into another high-speed ecosystem. Assets aren’t staying locked to one chain anymore. They’re moving where the opportunity is. More environments means more usage. More usage means real demand. $XRP just got another lane to operate in.

@mert What's that? Integrate zcash using @sunrisedefi ? Or just use $ORE @OREsupply

solana is somewhat behind in privacy compared to competitors but we've just discovered a way to make it the leading smart-contract chain w.r.t privacy in all of crypto this is going to be fun
