@lawmaster are there any sites around that track derivatives volume interactively?

Good visual representations of where most of the damage was done. Binance, Bybit and FTX all lost more than 20% of OI in the last 24 hours. This tells you that traders were really overleveraged on these exchanges

@AFDudley0 they don't get distracted. engaging in anti competitive tactics is literally their business model and how they get people to pump their bags

The Ethereum Community is an overly excited puppy that gets distracted by whatever dumb thing crosses it's path, EOS, Tron, and now Libra. Buidl is a dumb meme since the base infrastructure isn't done and most people into memes can't do it.

It's remarkable how dishonest the Facebook Libra technical documents are. They repeatedly describe Libra as decentralized, when it obviously isn't. Reminds me of how often academics have lied to my clients, claiming their trusted consensus solutions are trustless/decentralized.

Facebook Calibra is today going public with (technical) papers on: * Libra Blockchain developers.libra.org/docs/assets/pa… * LibraBFT Consensus developers.libra.org/docs/assets/pa… * Move Language & VM developers.libra.org/docs/assets/pa… And a plan to go more permissionless! #overview" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">libra.org/en-US/permissi… #libra #crypto

Normal clients can only access the network by using public endpoints of one of the trusted validators (the “founding members”). They can’t gain access to the entire history, and they can’t validate it either. They have to trust an SPV-style proof by the validators.

The biggest question for me while researching @Libra_ today was this: Is it possible for users who aren’t “founding members” (@facebook, paypal, visa, uber, etc) to gain access to the network and fully validate the “chain”? The answer is a resounding NO.

Just so we are clear, Libra is: - not decentralized - not censorship resistant - not guaranteed to work technologically - not guaranteed to be cleared by regulators - not clear in regards to tax implications

Day 3 Intermittent Fasting I have had severe allergies for the past 1.5 months. I've gotten a full 8hrs of sleep 2 nights in a row. Haven't lost any weight yet, but that's not really the goal. Discipline is the goal. I'll update this thread everyday

This handle doesn’t talk price much but... That chart though... Raven is one of the top five or so best performing digital assets over the last one year period in terms of price appreciation. It even outperformed Bitcoin. This shows some interest in the technology. 🙏

The SEC’s proposed “framework” would have precluded the funding and construction of Ethereum.

@bytemaster7 Eliminating taxes would definitely be hyperinflationary. Also, this scheme would suffer from an extremely serious problem of "the money supply" being rather difficult to define.

Modern monetary theory wouldn’t be so bad if we could pass a constitutional amendment limiting government spending to 5% of the money supply per year and forbidding government debt and eliminate all taxes.

@VirginTrains @Fitzyfella I'm afraid you don't seem to understand the term "overselling." It's not our problem how you organise your business and try to squeeze more money; if at the end of the day supply doesn't meet demand then you oversold, and these passive aggressive tweets don't change anything

@Fitzyfella I'm afraid that it's not a case of overselling, Neil as many passengers board with flexible tickets who aren't booked on that service but we do apologise that it's busy onboard for you. Did you have a seat reserved today? ^AL

A big thank you to @VirginTrains for overselling yet another Train meaning my trip to London will be 2 irresistible hours of standing up outside the toilet! My only consolation is knowing you’ve got all our money tucked away safely for your shareholders!

OK one important thing I should note, is that while syncing the 2017 bull run blocks, the UTXO set grows too large to fit on the device unless you erase ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING. But you can expand storage with a USB stick.

You can get the Xiaomi Mi Box S (Android TV box) for $49 (or less on a sale). Considering it includes AC adapter, storage and WiFi, it’s cheaper than a raspberry pi. It can now run ABCore (Bitcoin Core) in the background and sync while you watch Netflix twitter.com/larrybitcoin/s…
Lawrence Nahum@LarryBitcoin

ABCore 0.70 is out! Fixes (thanks @udiWertheimer): * Bug that prevented running on some Android TV boxes * Run in the background on most devices with no special configuration (watch your battery) Also uses the latest android toolchain play.google.com/store/apps/det…

@chris_belcher_ "As of 2019 most casual enthusiasts of bitcoin believe it is perfectly traceable; this is completely false." how is it false? the methods of prevention mentioned in the summary don't make your transactions untraceable from a resourceful attacker

For the last few weeks I've been working on a literature review for bitcoin privacy: en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Privacy It aims to cover about all privacy issues in bitcoin, including Lightning network, and has a bunch of examples to help demonstrate how the concepts work in practice.
