Hi these are fake.

Glad we cleared that up.

“The number three medical school in Russia” lmao

“In 2008 Dr Korotkov was widely criticised when he claimed to have created a camera that could photograph the human soul.”

standard.co.uk/news/world/rus…
theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
“Korotkov did not reply to requests for comment and the university gaia claims he is affiliated with (St. Petersburg University in Russia) shows no record of him online. Officials at the university did not reply to requests for comment.”

“Jaime Maussan is a journalist, TV personality, and UFOlogist who was involved in the analysis of 5 mummies discovered in Nazca, Peru in 2017. The mummies were crouched humanoid figures with three fingers on their hands and feet, and dubbed ‘aliens’, a theory that was debunked. According to a report in Snopes, the discovery was hokum and the mummified corpse was believed to be that of a child.”

What are supposedly smart people like Clint doing with their lives if five minutes of Googling turns up the fact that most of the folks involved in this “find” are serial scammers who have been pulling this same stunt for almost a decade and who likely don’t have the academic credentials they claim to have and these easily discoverable character items aren’t being reported alongside the “evidence”?
Here is super credible Dr. Korotkov talking about the quantum power of intention.

There is no proof that “Dr.” Korotkov is a professor at St Petersburg University. He does not appear on the faculty list.

The lead biologist, Lopez, presented on this to the Congress of Peru in 2018 and nobody gave a shit and it was widely debunked.

the-alien-project.com/en/mummies-of-…
Lopez, supposedly a biologist, has one publication to his name.

Institut Inkarri has no mention of a Lopez.

Why is it so hard for skeptics to do the bare min of research before forming opinions about crypto?

Somehow FTX failing = DeFi is a giant house of cards?

The FTX saga is yet more proof positive that DeFi and on-chain transparency can be transformative. Image
It's such a stupidly simple concept to grasp the differences here.

For centralized (even regulated) entities, understanding their complete assets<>liabilities mix is often impossible. Certainly to the general public.
Yet for DeFi protocols, anyone can audit them. Their mix of assets<>liabilities is on-chain. The code is open-source. You can even run various simulations to model the risk in these systems.

1/ Given all the turmoil at Twitter, I’ve started digging into alternative and similar social networks.

I’ll live blog my experience here.

First up: @farcaster_xyz (farcaster.xyz).

🧵
2/ Farcaster bills itself as a “sufficiently decentralized network”.

This boils down to two things:

1. A guarantee that users own a direct relationship with their audience (i.e., users own their social graph)
2. Devs can always build apps on the network
3/ Farcaster is therefore an open protocol that can support many apps and clients, like email.

In another universe, this is how Twitter might have evolved.

Paul Graham (@paulg) once observed that “Twitter is a protocol owned by a private company”.

Does the merge make ETH a security?

I think the answer is clearly no.

But let’s examine some of the counterarguments made in the quoted thread below.

Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer, so this is not legal advice.

🧵
2/ 1️⃣ Let’s start with the odd fetish of some to retroactively label ETH, a 7-year-old asset, a security.

- What is the practical reason for this?
- Who is the issuer of the security?
- What remedy can the SEC pursue? Rescission?
- Do ETH purchasers want their $5/ETH back?
3/ Is there an issue with disclosures today?

Ethereum is an open-source, distributed project.

It arguably has the most transparent and real-time disclosures of any distributed project and certainly more than a traditional, centralized company.

@naval outlines the correct approach to evaluating different countries' strategy for managing COVID.

It requires 2 key things:

- Dispassionate QUANTITATIVE analysis of data
- Careful QUALITATIVE analysis and interpretation of data and interventions

Some important takeaways:
1. The sooner full lockdowns are implemented the better. Sweden's top epidemiologist says as much.

New Zealand is a clear example of this.

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…
If implemented late and poorly, full lockdown can still help delay health care from being overrun but becomes necessary longer and is more difficult to unwind b/c the virus becomes unevenly spread.

This is particularly challenging in large geographies like the United States.

I don't know how PoS will work and neither do you.

You don't know how it will affect overall asset distribution.

You don't know how it will affect validator weight distribution.

Why?
- There are infinite possible implementations of PoS
- Initial coin distribution matters (a lot)
- Crypto systems are dynamic and emergent -- tech and behavior will evolve over time
- Staking has cost/risk your morons: CAPEX, OPEX, opportunity costs, tech risk, price risk
- *E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E* has a selling point (high and low)
- MOST IMPORTANTLY: crypto economies are not closed system!

I don't know how many times this last point needs to be repeated.

There other opportunities for earning a PoS crypto asset outside of its system.
