Really interesting article in @FastCompany by @JLindzon about the issues of sexism in the male-dominated VC world. Can crypto currencies solve the problem of sexism in fundraising? https://t.co/u69n2wMbpS. Nice comments from @MatCybula at @Cryptiv too! #client

I'll make the same bet, but for 2 years.
@socrates1024 I bet in 20 years we will have an operational cryptocurrency with a tx throughput that exceeds today's Visa, that allows users to validate some or all of the state themselves, and that provides empirically acceptable security (~~censorship resistance/reversion-free in practice).

As is the case with most #disruptive technologies, inferior at first but introduce novel capabilities. "Disruption is a process." - Christensen. https://t.co/AhV6EjnDHg
The dirty secrets of blockchains: they don’t scale (yet), aren’t really decentralized, distribute wealth poorly, lack killer apps, and run on a controlled Internet. Back to work.

a good rephrasing of how to categorize Facebook and Cambridge Analytica -- not a data breach but a breach of trust
“In a technical sense this wasn’t a breach. This is how the business model is supposed to work. But for end users, if it was a breach in any sense of the word, it was a breach of trust.” https://t.co/gEkaRpd1D8
