A thread. 1/11

An elected head of state is accountable, democratic, representative, cost effective. It provides stability, legitimacy, transparency, adaptability, and unity.

Accountability matters. An elected head of state is answerable to the people who voted them in. #accountability #democracy
3/11

Democracy is the bedrock of a free society. An elected head of state reflects the people's will, chosen through a fair and transparent process. #democracy #fairness

💎@BanklessHQ’s podcast with @cburniske is a gem.

I’ve summarized the key points and added a suggestion for Chris at the end.

📽️

🧵From a 22k word transcript → 1.6k word thread
🎙️Chris Burniske talks about his conviction in #Ethereum during 2018-2019 bear market. Despite negativity & loss of faith, he & @placeholdervc continued investing in $ETH & its ecosystem.

#Crypto #Investing
🚀Projects backed by Placeholder include zkSync, Balancer, and Uma. Chris highlights that they found amazing valuations and top-notch teams in the #Ethereum space, with less competition from VCs during that time.

1/8 Witness the intriguing parallel between USDC insolvency concerns & Marriner Eccles's strategy during the Great Depression. Both emphasize trust in financial systems. #stablecoin #financialhistory
USDC issuers, led by Circle, hit pause on withdrawals to gather capital in response to insolvency concerns. They took a page from history to handle the crisis. #cryptocurrency #crisismanagement
Historical context: Marriner Eccles, a prominent banker during the Great Depression, used a clever strategy to control teller cash payouts, restoring confidence in the banking system. #GreatDepression #banking

[1/🧵] — #XRPL (#XRP) vs. @Ripple #CBDC

A short thread comparing and contrasting the #opensource public #decentralized #XRPLedger with #Ripple's private #CBDC Ledger based on XRPL👇 Source: https://www.youtube.com/@xrpledgerfoundation1145
[2/6] ▶️ What do central bankers expect?

#Interoperability — ILP
#Security, #Trust & #Speed — Unregulated
⚠️ #OverlayServices — Hooks and @EvernodeXRPL
#Access and #Inclusion — XRPL-DEX & AMM
#Stability & #Resilience — 10+ years old (XRPL) Source: https://www.youtube.com/@xrpledgerfoundation1145
[3/6] ▶️ Why does it have to be a private solution?

With proven security & all of the #XRPL Tooling at its disposal, the only thing a CB lacks is "control" of the gov. process.

Gov. on the #XRPL is conducted through amendments and voting, which cannot be controlled centrally. Source: https://www.youtube.com/@xrpledgerfoundation1145

A rough, preliminary snapshot of Latino voting in the midterm based on the precinct-level results the @EquisResearch team has analyzed so far, just in time for Thanksgiving…
First, big picture: the GOP narrative of a Latino red wave hinged on (1) a big showing in FL, (2) signature wins in TX, (3) gains in AZ and/or NV. Short version: they passed the first test and failed on the other two.
How do you grade Dem performance with Latinos? They got the job done; they held the margins they needed to win. Caveats: FL stands out as an untreated wound; & there was no rebound to 2018 levels anywhere.

"Fabricating #Clay: #Machines, #Materials, & #Code"

🧵 Today's SFI Seminar by @leahbuechley (@UNM):
"We build the geometry directly by thinking about the PATH that our 3D printer takes. There's no intermediate slicing software [to render CAD as "2D" layers]."

- @leahbuechley, #3DPrinting clay with a 1.5 mm nozzle
"You can start to think about surface textures - like spikes that you can't do with a traditional slicer. Or...here's a path that's a sine wave, but every other layer is rotated. Or...one creature is following THIS path, and the other is chasing it around."

1/ @kofinas was on the @BanklessHQ podcast w/ @RyanSAdams & @TrustlessState to discuss how the world is changing, how instability can lead to global escalation, and what role tech dependency has

I hope you enjoy this podcast summary 🧵
Image @midjourney: "wind of change"
2/ @kofinas grew up in the 90s when the 🌍 had settled w/ unity in a #unipolar moment. In 2016 w/ Trump's election, the tenor and the US-China relationship changed. A #bipolar order is usually more stable but we are not there & uncertainty will be part of it before we reach it
3/ In "The Changing World Order" from @RayDalio lists different historical systems & how they peak and decline. He also says that the US is declining & there is a conflict of visions (democracy vs. totalitarian) bc/ of that. @RyanSAdams is wondering if this could lead to #WW3

I promised a thread on a stock that I researched and then been buying heavily ever since. It's been weeks since I made the promise, looking to fulfill it tonight…
(Beg you some patience if it's a slow thread, my brain tired at this point in the day)
Ok, so some background, I don't look wildly at the whole market, it's always a targeted look with the goal as the guide. I started this one at the start of the year while looking for this year's (I hate to say it…😔)…dark horse.
The guiding goal for me was to find something that would be able to take good (imo) volumes, and be a business that's growing, in an industry that's growing (or preferably multiple), while the business itself grabs and builds on opportunities everywhere it touches…

(1/6)💪It is time to build a decentralized reserve dedicated to the blockchain industry.

🚀The #TRON network is now taking a step further to found the TRON DAO Reserve, the #blockchain industry’s first decentralized reserve. #TRONDAOReserve
(2/6)⚒️#Blockchain today is undergoing a laissez-faire market of more than $1 trillion. With no constraint from macroprudential regulation, it will only end up damaging crypto stakeholders’ interests.

🙌The time has come for a decentralized reserve.

(3/6)👏Four years into its inception, #TRON has grown into the world’s largest stablecoin network. It boasts over $55 billion in financial assets, including stablecoins on-chain, and has settled and cleared total financial assets of over $4 trillion.

The #Protocol on IRL/NI was agreed 2 years ago, with a key objective of avoiding a hard @BorderIrish

But what has #Brexit been like for people living along the #border?

We @QUBSSESW @europe_icban @UKandEU investigated…
And our report is out today!
tinyurl.com/AfterBrexit
1/10 Cover of Border After Brexit report
This is our 4th QUB/ICBAN report since the 2016 referendum.

The study involved an online #survey of those living/working in the Central Border Region.

Our survey received c400 responses, equally spread either side of the border. There were also interviews & focus groups.

2/10
We are VERY grateful to each of the respondents to this survey.

It took a time to complete because we insisted on getting comments/views/examples…

And hence the report is another fairly hefty one, as the #Contents show.

The focus is on giving space/voice to respondents.

Deloitte, 2017: "Operations will cease to be delivered by humans."

Deloitte: The #Future of Operations, Deloitte Global Impact Report, Nov 13 2017

#FourthIndustrialRevolution
#ControlledDemolition

#Covid19 is the conduit to the #4IR now in full motion. As people come to terms w/ what is being forced upon humanity, we will soon regret that we did not unite to oppose to draconian lockdowns/expanding surveillance that will serve to protect/insulate ruling classes from revolt.
#UBI (universal basic income) is a tool designed by the rich to stave off #Molotov cocktails - while at the same time enriching themselves even further. The ruling class knows full well what they are unleashing - but the citizenry does not.

3/7 "Complex systems that have artificially suppressed volatility tend to become extremely fragile, while at the same time exhibiting no visible risks. In fact, they tend to be too calm & exhibit minimal variability as silent risks accumulate beneath the surface." - Taleb/Blythe Image

[Thread on a thread] A lot of relevant questions listed by @jasmineelgamal, on which I would add few points :
1/ Beyond the decisions that are taken or not, the uncertainty created by #US messaging on #Syria before and now on #Iraq is making the work of US allies very complicated. Both military and civilian actions c/ #ISIS are paralized by uncertainty. Planning is simply impossible.
2/ Nobody wants #endlesswars and #America has to decide for itself its level of engagement in the #MiddeEast. The #US could be right to call for #burdensharing, esp. from #Gulf & #Europe, but the way it has been doing it makes it difficult for allies to answer operationally.

Different types of private #firms have different appeals and demands, so different approaches are adopted to support them now. Local #governments, out of social #stability considerations, mainly channel their support towards large firms that are major #employment contributors.
#State-owned #asset platforms are more concerned about #profitability for fear of loss or reduction of state assets. #Securities companies which have a lot of #equity #pledge worry more about how to address #risks related to the pledges.
#Banks are more willing to support private #firms which not only run well but also have adequate #capital. These #entities all make rational choices, but in the long run, there are still rules and standards to be set. By Xiao Gang, former #CSRC Chairman.
