I was a TA for the first Bitcoin/crypto class at Stanford (CS251 in 2015) and on the final exam the students were given an ETH smart contract for a dutch auction with 8 bugs purposefully put in it. The task was to find all bugs. The students found 15.

The "next Bitcoin" is not going to look like Bitcoin at all and may not be a cryptocurrency. It's going to be some mind-bending economic paradigm shift many many years from now that few will recognize early on.

Gary Gensler was tirelessly working to make our lives more difficult in the US to "keep us safe" while the whole time he was socially connected to the biggest fraudsters in the industry. Wolves in sheep's clothing.

The energy-consumption Bitcoin FUD is just getting started. PoS coin marketing arms, subsidized by Silicon Valley VCs and ICO profits, are going to lobby hard against Bitcoin. Banks and ESG money will join forces with them as well. The big fights have not even begun yet.

Coinbase deserves its fair share of criticism, but trust me, you do not want them to lose to FTX. Coinbase has a core ethos of economic liberty. FTX is a pure player of the game where morals only hold you back. Be careful what you wish for.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: ESG is an attack on economic freedom from the Marxist diversity-industrial complex. It sounds friendly and positive on the surface, but look behind the curtain and you’ll find a demon.

My very hot take: Zuck has more of a spine than 99% of tech CEOs. Libra is another example of this. I respect it tbh.
The CEOs of Apple, Google, Facebook and Amazon were just asked if they believe China steals technology from U.S. firms.
Cook: We haven't experienced it.
Pichai: Neither have we.
Zuckerberg: Yes, absolutely.
Bezos: I've read that.

Ok hear me out, what if everyone's paycheck gets automatically deposited into some dude's credit fund and the government guarantees the deposits if the fund manager makes a mistake? Oh, and he gets to take management fees every year and faces no consequences if it blows up.
