Trouble in paradise. 'Why can't you upgrade the 747 in flight faster!?' Not to mention the upgrade is theoretical at best.
Ethereum dependent apps are feeling major pain. They have near zero users and a network that can't scale. Plasma has stalled, PoS is scary, payroll due.
App/ICO/devs, why not take a look at @RSKsmart? It's an ethereum ported onto a layer 2 of bitcoin.

A real "dApp" is a very rare thing. So rare they can easily have their own names, like Bitcoin and Lightning Network.
As a idea, apps that label themselves dapps, is pretty funny.
Mainly, they call themselves dapps to excuse their lack of users and to confuse their investors. There are no dapps on ethereum, except maybe the erc20 contract itself I guess.

Can the altcoins handle the coming pain?

How many holders of last resort do they have?
Altcoins have built their networks on marketing and false narratives. Reinflating an altcoin bubble is without deliverables is going to be impossible.
Bitcoin delivers its value prop everyday. It delivers more valuable innovation all the time. It's network effects will continue expanding, while altcoins' will shrink to nothing.

The term "cryptoassets" (conveniently the title of Chris's book) is hugely detrimental to investors' understanding of digital scarcity and sustainable comp advs in this tech.

The term scam, however, is *under used*. Ripple is the #2 coin by market cap for God's sake.
#bitcoin
The entire altcoin complex would benefit if people were less forgiving of the 99% that are outright scams.

Of course, the line we are told to toe (by scammers) is to ignore the scams, be nicer, let the scams run their courses naturally. Lol
It feels very similar to the coinbase "education" initiative, that just fills your head with buzzwords like blockchain and cryptoassets, then they try to sell you their scams coins, that have no competitive ad except for pumpers and shills.

@zaoyang 1/ So stateful scripts don't allow fully parallelizable verification per block because due to race conditions. Two txes in the same block may result in reads/writes from the same contract storage in ways that cannot be predicted from static analysis.
@zaoyang 2/ The more dapps are invoked and the more complex dapps become the worse the problem gets. So without sharding state, ETH verification is more-or-less limited by CPU processing speed.
@zaoyang 3/ So what's in store for CPU scaling? Well, it turns out the Dennard scaling is mostly over (and that's what made Moore's law possible). CPUs won't be expected to become exponentially faster like they were before.

#Pain is a #blessing in disguise!

Just look back at your life. When you were happy about something, did you ever wonder about the meaning of life? Did you look inwards to see who you are, what life is all about? Did you feel the need to deeply know about the ultimate Truth? No!
When things go smoothly you just blindly follow the same routine with barely any awareness or consciousness. There is nothing to jolt you into awareness from your routine so you continue without any awareness. But when #pain happens, it makes you look at life objectively.
It forces you to look deeper into life, to learn why you react the way you react and seek to uncover the real #mystery of life. #Pain is the key that can open the door to the world of #reality; the choice is yours to open the door or not.

We’ve spent this week reporting on the aftermath of the deadly #CampFire in Northern California for @newshour. Here’s a thread on what we’ve been seeing.
Three weeks in, there’s obvious relief that #CampFire is 100% contained, but thousands of people from #Paradise are still homeless, with no obvious remedy. Almost 90 people died in the fire, and nearly 190 more are still unaccounted for.
The scene up in #Paradise itself is just shocking. Photos just don’t do it justice. There’s a lot of talk about the “restorative” power of fire, but what we’ve seen was *anything* but....

0/ Such a full-on 24 hours for the #crypto/#blockchain space! When is it not?

Too much to take in? Fear not, I've got you covered, and have put together a thread of 24 events - one for each hour? (🤷‍♂️) - that caught my eye. Let's go!
1/ 🤝 @FantomFDN [ $FTM ] partnered with @Danfoss, a multi-billion-dollar #energy/#IoT manufacturer & service provider.

The Denmark-headquartered company will work w/ #Fantom to "explore the possibilities of accelerating the development of the microgrid." medium.com/fantomfoundati…
2/ 🆕 The @AERGO_io team published the mother of all blog posts. And why not! For it unveiled both the AERGO Chain Alpha & the AERGO pre-testnet.

Click through for more on their consensus algorithm (i.e., BFT-dPOS), Client SDK, and what's next for #AERGO. medium.com/aergo/releasin…

I was going to go out for dinner somewhere but I think I'm just gonna eat in & send that money to support @sharicedavids

Women are the heart of the #BlueWave and Davis is fighting for a very flippable #KS03 seat.

For blue staters, these are the kinds of races we can impact.
1/
We're all spread thin and all have bills, bills and more bills but we've got one shot to put our best candidates forward and then support their runs.

I'd rather skip a treat tonight than lose my appetite when the results role in on Election Night in Nov.

2/
Maybe we could even make this a thing.

There's a whole lot of stuff we could probably do without in life without feeling major pain.

Skipping Starbucks some morn ain't a life changer but 100,000 $5 donations could truly impact several small races.

- MetaMask has >1m users
- GitHub lists 14k $ETH-based repos and 220k commits
- 1500+ dapps are in dev

On the topic of daily act addr (DAA):

Value transfer is a use case and those *transacting value daily* are DAUs you morons.

Fundraising with $ETH = MOE.

By DAA, Ethereum has as many or more users than BTC.
