Lovely conversation with two lovely people! Don't miss the "if you were the Ethereum dictator, what would you do?" question at the end - three cheers for fast finality as #1 priority - it's almost as if we need an "Ethereum dictator preferences" counterparty discovery system. .

Product idea: An "Exit Cosmos" button, which on click automatically unbonds all your @cosmos stake, collects all your @cosmos tokens, NFTs, etc., dumps them on @osmosiszone, buys BTC, shields it on @namada, and thereby simplifies your life. Who would use this?.

There should be no "world ledger". Everyone wants interoperability with each other's apps and data, but that isn't the same thing as a single ledger controlled by a single token and set of validators. A single world ledger is like a single world government: extraction from the.

Also! Great thread from @huitseeker on zkVMs and precompiles here:

I have nothing but respect for @VitalikButerin, but focusing on upgrading @ethereum to RISC-V is a giant side quest and would be a colossal strategic mistake:.- Execution layer ossification and efficiency are goals in fundamental tension.- "zk" (or succinct) VMs all rely on.

Wasn't this the thing that @ethereum was trying to ship in . 2016/2017? I feel like I'm stuck in a deja vu loop.

Quick update on the @namada shielded airdrop to @zcash: @heliaxdev does not have the resources to commit to this work in Q3, so in lieu of that I'm offering a $20k bounty (payable in ZEC/NAM/USDC) to anyone who implements a full prototype that can be verified + tested. Link 👇.

"Cryptoeconomics" isn't a real field, it's just cybernetics rebranded, in denial of actual history. Distributed consensus systems and practical zero-knowledge proofs are real progress in the possibility space, but they don't merit a new field.

Still recovering from @protocol_berg ? . Stop snoozing your alarm, get out of bed, and come join us for a day of cryptoeconomic critique without the usual constant digital footprint. Miss it and you'll never know what happened!.
