The question no one ever digs into is "WHY is the bond market so compliant?" If they did, they'd see it's because the Fed grew their b/s from $800B to $9T, & then sold exactly ZERO 10y+ USTs during QT.... ...& Treasury already has plans to resume QE in the next 12-16 mths👇

We saw a need for change, so we're changing. Goodbye @swirldslabs. Hello @hashgraph. @episcini | @leemonbaird | @ManceHarmon ▶️ youtu.be/M3-P-zk-BoQ 📃 hashgraph.com/hello-hashgrap… All things @hedera; all things #hashgraph. #HelloHashgraph | Visit hashgraph.com

@rwasummit are there any recordings of the talks here love to catch up with them

We're still inviting speakers and sponsors to join us in Brussels. If you're interested, apply via the link below! #join-brussels" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">rwasummit.io/brussels-2024#…

RWA Brussels. July 9. The Merode. We’re bringing together 250 top DeFi & TradFi leaders for a full day of panel discussions and networking, followed by a celebration of RWA Summer just steps away from the main @EthCC venue. We’ll hear about the global state of tokenization from: • Institutional investors and asset allocators • DeFi builders and founders • Legal experts and policymakers Co-hosted by @centrifuge @TiogaCapital in partnership with @ChronicleLabs, @gnosischain and @keyrock. Want to join us in Brussels? ⬇️

One of my fav talk at #FilDevSummit4 was brought by @patrickwoodhead on Spark Retrieval protocol youtube.com/watch?v=jt1l5s… I initially thought it was just another checker implemented for FIL+ (😨) but I was WRONG ⭐️ overall retrieval success rate on filecoin has been improved now there is an incentive & public accessible metric 🎯 trustless protocol for sampling retrievability on Filecoin storage services 👍🏻 provides insight into WHY a retrieval requests fails 🤝 collaborate w/ storage providers to troubleshoot the cause of failure 🔮 potentially becomes a retrieval guarantee service w/ customer defined SLA?

🎉 Exciting news! We’re teaming up with @YOM_official, the pioneers of cloud gaming DePIN for AAA games. Storacha’s decentralized 🌶️hot🌶️ storage network ensures quick access to game files, even during peak times. This partnership means YOM can deliver great performance and speed, showing Storacha’s dedication to practical decentralized solutions in gaming. Together, we’re making decentralized cloud gaming smoother and faster! 🎮✨ Click the link below to know more about our partnership 🤝 @storacha/storacha-x-yom-decentralized-storage-to-transform-the-depin-gaming-space-75a08544095e" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@storacha/stor…

@storachanetwork You all know I’m your number one fan 😌

The #RaCHA is really proud of @OlsenTorfinn following us. Only he knows why! 🔥🌶 Goooo Teeeeaaam!

The reason why @Coinbase Commerce doesn’t support self-custody $BTC baselayer payments is simple UXTO chains like Bitcoin lack the programmability necessary to meet the requirements of most merchants 1) Merchants don’t want to be exposed to crypto price volatility risk Ethereum and EVM chains solve this by being able to programmatically covert whatever crypto token is used as payment into a stablecoin like $USDC, when can then be optionally redeemed for $USD and sent to the merchant’s bank account UXTO-based chains like $BTC lack the native programmability to convert their native asset into stablecoins onchain, so a custodial solution is required 2) Merchants don’t want to deal with manual burden of resolving incorrect payments (eg: underpayment) Ethereum and EVM chains solve this by being to programmatically reject payment with incorrect payment amounts This is literally a single line of code in a smart contract (require payment amount == invoice amount, otherwise revert) UXTO-based chains like $BTC lack the native programmability to revert payments based on amount, so a custodial solution is required — Net result is that Coinbase made a calculated decision that the overhead/friction/cost of supporting baselayer $BTC payments was simply not worth it Payment processing for self-custodial wallets is challenging, it’s not nearly as a simple as just giving a customer an address to pay into, they will fuck it up, it needs to be idiot-proofed Can lightning fix this for $BTC? Possibility, but there’s a great deal of friction today in terms of managing inbound/outbound liquidity and channel rebalancing Lightning also means you can support one additional asset, $BTC, while integrating with EVM chains means you can accept hundreds to thousands of crypto-assets (including stablecoins and $WBTC) and get paid directly into your bank account programmatically if you desire That said, I hope Lightning improves enough to make it a realistic option for merchants to leverage

@tyler_hgraph @defigirlxoxo Highly suspicious anytime the devs don’t complain a little bit atleast 🤔😏 thanks though! The idea is that it makes testing easier so love to hear if you all find that to be the case.

@OlsenTorfinn @defigirlxoxo Okay, cool we’ll post back on this. Hopefully it doesn’t suck. Our devs rarely complain, but who knows.

we currently run a Hedera mirror node, what should we run next?

@tyler_hgraph @defigirlxoxo Cool, Tyler I’m personally curious about how folks end up using the local node tool to make their testing easier when they’re building stuff with Hedera. Love to hear if you have any trouble with configuration or find any of the features really valuable!

@defigirlxoxo Perfect

You all will fight against decentralized cryptographically secured storage markets until one day everyone looks back and wonders why everyone didn’t demand them from the get go.

@og_philip97 @beffjezos @X @elonmusk lol do you actually believe this 🤣

@beffjezos The only non nation-state controlled algorithmic psyop machine is the very platform you are using now @X. Which only recently became open and free thanks to @elonmusk

The reveal that surprises no one. TikTok was a nation-state controlled algorithmic psyop machine. Good riddance.

@WadeWarrens @matthew_d_green It is 100% possible for you to validate that you are who you say you are autonomously to a system and that system have no actual memory or artifact of who you actually were or even what you did. Sounds like black magic, but it works perfectly and this basically destroys “the web”

We’re pretty rapidly and consciously heading towards a future where everything you do on the Internet requires government ID, with basically no attention paid to the consequences of that (indeed, the consequences of that may be the whole point.)

@WadeWarrens @matthew_d_green They’re building systems that protect companies and profits not systems that protect users

@WadeWarrens @matthew_d_green Combination of DiD and homomorphic encryption. It’s basically one of the main development goals people have been working towards over the last 4 years. Web 2 tech workers aren’t even aware most of this stuff exists or works because none of them are actually building for users.

@matthew_d_green There’s a way to ID verify without actually exposing your identity but that’s web 3 so most people would prefer not to know it exists

So what does a future involving age verification look like? As a first step it’s going to involve installing government ID on your phone. The ID will be tied to your biometrics (face). Apple is already deploying something like this, but it can’t be used for web browsing — yet.

"Strongly against" Americans owning digital property

“Many of those tokens are securities under the law of the land, as interpreted by the US Supreme Court. So we follow that law.” Please stop misleading the market—tokens are NOT securities. Their pleadings notwithstanding , your own attorneys have admitted this in court.
