Why do "top tier" publishers like @Forbes not only publish this, but also pin the tweet?
At least they realized the first summary was too much so they deleted ... but reposted with a different one and pinned again.
DONT GLORIFY CRIMINALS. THEY ARE NOT MISUNDERSTOOD GENIUSES.
There is no "Crypto hierarcy" to climb. What she did was not crypto. She just went into a very non-crypto firm that has non-transparent and as it turns out fraudulent books, doing white collar crime.
That's not crypto. That's wall street 101.
Why try to describe her in a favorable light?
SHE STOLE BILLIONS OF CUSTOMER FUNDS.
Probably the most annoying thing here is describing her as a "math wiz"?!?!
That's an insult to people who are actually good at math.
Lets put things in perspective for the "misunderstood geniuses who made a mistake"
- Aaron Swartz was pushed to take his own life for downloading research papers
- @alex_pertsev is in jail for writing #opensource code
- Virgil Griffith is in prison for talking in a NK conference

1/X: I have a slow Sunday. So inspired by the heated discourse under this thread I will read carefully (as opposed to skimming) the paper that introduced the SBT term and tweet remarks, questions into a thread as I go.
2/X: Naturally for every paper you need to read the abstract which ideally will give you an idea what the paper is about.
So from that I get that the authors envision non-transferrable ("Soulbound") tokens will form the basis of what they call DeSoc, the Decentralized Society.
3/X:
In the introduction they explain that web3 has achieved a lot but it's severely limited due to the lack of an identity system.
🤯This by far of our biggest release containing lots of new features, improvements and bug fixes we made in the past 5 months! It contains a whooping 639 commits by 13 different contributors!
🐛That's why it comes with a warning that there is probably gonna be bugs!!
3/X:
@krakenfx users who are staking in that exchange will now be able to see all staking events and track their income over any given period and/or filter by any asset.
🐦I talk a lot about what @rotkiapp is right now but not so much about what the vision for rotki is in the long term.
Time to give a sneak peek and explain where we are going.
Thread 👇
2/X:
Rotki today is an #opensource, local-first application that puts a big focus on user data ownership and privacy on the virtue of being a local app.
But that's not all that rotki aspires to be.👇
3/X:
🤷Supporting multiple protocols, multiple chains, multiple exchanges, multiple platforms, accounting for multiple jurisdictions is a truly hard problem.
💸A problem each company tries to solve by simply throwing money at and implementing in-house solutions for.
