The Ethereum #Dencun upgrade, the most important Ethereum upgrade since The Merge was triggered at epoch 269,568 at 13:55 UTC and finalized at 14:10 UTC. This is a historical day for the blockchain project 🎉🎉

And finally - how do you shut down a network? A decentralized network spanning the entire planet? How do you shut down a decentralized network without a totalitarian government?

There’s nothing special about banks. Everything banks do can be replaced by Bitcoin. Jamie Dimon knows this well.

@noahkagan Ah, yes, the 'taking things to the next level' phrase. Tell me you are a Deloitte type, without telling me you're a Deloitte type.

@balajis ....that shares your values as a parent? Perfect, let's contribute further towards creating value-driven echo chambers. Is having sex with a person from the same sex 'against your values'? Perfect, thanks to your tailor-made AI assistant your kid will never learn about gays.

I like Naomi, but I'd point out that the entire K-12 model was set up to indoctrinate children to be good conscripts. It comes from Germany. And it is what she's talking about. Except it's organized by the state... [1]: irasocol.medium.com/the-prussian-m… twitter.com/RealSexyCyborg…

This was a joke though. You should not actually be allowed to isolate and indoctrinate children into crazed belief systems that are against their own long-term interests and upon reaching adulthood will render them unable to function in society at large. That's abuse.

Is there a good way to understand how much money was worth at different periods of time compared to today? 1850-1920 in America is my fav era to read about. But when Andrew Carnegie talks about investing $50,000 into a biz...I have no idea what that means today.

@noahkagan More like a suggestion - Read David Sedaris' chapter on his colonoscopy experience, for a good laugh.

@balajis No sir. The Fed does not print dollars. The Fed does not control interest rates. The eurodollar is the global reserve currency (stateless reserve less global monetary system). Not the Fed dollar.

You still don't get it. The Fed is devaluing the dollar. It's what Dalio predicted: monetization of the debt. All the wars "paid" for in an orgy of printing. Dollars worth toilet paper on the other end. This isn't about making money at all. It's about getting innocents to Bitcoin lifeboats. Before the Fed crashes the ship.

How many bitcoin does @balajis have? If he has 1,000, then he only needs bitcoin to rise ~4% to pay off the sensational $1m bitcoin bet right? — brilliant!

@nntaleb Lunatic is still a mild term for Balaji's idiotic 'unrealized losses' stance. Oh, bonds are bad? On Friday auctions on both 4- and 8-week bills produced zero yield. Now, why would anyone lend money to the government for zero yield?

Most disturbing finance error: many like the lunatic Balaji mistake the forward for the expectation of future spot. It's not and we've known since 1923 that Forward-Spot is simply a mechanistic cash and carry arbitrage relationship. You learn that in undergrad finance 101.

Wait — the FED is about to inject 2 Trillion dollars into the U.S. Banking system. Where does this “magic” money come from?

@nntaleb Well said. So-called forward guidance doesn't work. There are ample examples, such as during QE3 in 2013 when interest rate fell way lower after, than, during forward guidance. It is unbelievable how Fed-centric, how statist the worldview of the author of the Network State is.

@nntaleb Absolutely. Their world view is incredibly Fed-centric. VC and technologist still think the Fed actually prints money and controls interest rates. They haven't learned the difference between bank reserves and money.

Most of us who went into finance in the 80s knew in great detail what happened in the 60s, 40s, 20s & even the 19th century. Some of us studied EVERY recorded past crisis. We are seeing VCs & hotshots like my two recent preys who don't even know what really happened in 2007.

@JeffKirdeikis Short vesting schedule made VC funds act like hedge funds, which in return, causes frequent crashes and downturns in crypto markets.

@JeffKirdeikis The comparison is inappropriate. Banks don't create credit using customer deposits. Credit comes before deposit.

The ultimate sign of PMF in crypto is a professionalized supply-side: Bitcoin: hobbyists mining in their closets -> public mining companies Ethereum: individuals running nodes -> Staked, Figment, CB Cloud Uniswap, Aave: prosumer LPs -> institutional market makers
