I set an alarm for 7AM EST to read Facebook's Libra blockchain announcement and woke up to various posts, tweets & takes around the world (the announcement was released at 5AM).

Instead of adding more words to the discussion, here's a roundup of takes that made me think :)

[Edward Snowden @Snowden]

This thread is a very good summary of why @Facebook, which famously makes its fortunes by exploiting the public in ways that are intentionally designed to be as close to criminal as possible, is suddenly calling for new "privacy" laws.

Hyperledger now supports Ethereum, which in turn means Blockchangers now supports Hyperledger to our customers i.e. 30 Norwegian corporations! 🎉

I know what I'm reading today: A new report from @GarrickHileman on the State of Stablecoins. If it's as good as his previous reports, this should be highly interesting. Looking forward to it!

[Blockchain @blockchain]

Our new research team led by Dr. @GarrickHileman just released a stablecoin report that is the first of its kind. Take a deep dive into this quickly evolving asset class at https://t.co/rFKh5nWaWx.

[Emin Gün Sirer🔺⚔️ @el33th4xor]

Ok, there is a terribly wrong framework emerging around consensus protocols. People think that PoW and PoS are consensus protocols, and that they are the only two consensus protocols out there.

This is false. Let me explain.

Nei, det er ikke sikkert at GDPR innføres i Norge den 1. juli: https://t.co/sVW0DQk4tB

[Christopher Wylie 🏳️‍🌈 @chrisinsilico]

Suspended by @facebook. For blowing the whistle. On something they have known privately for 2 years.

[Matthew Green @matthew_d_green]

I’m going to hire Tom Karlo if I ever need to fire someone and want it to be really, really gentle.

[Nick Schrock @schrockn]

Jeff Dean and co at GOOG just released a paper showing how machine-learned indexes can replace B-Trees, Hash Indexes, and Bloom Filters. Execute 3x faster than B-Trees, 10-100x less space. Executes on GPU, which are getting faster unlike CPU. Amazing. https://t.co/PPVkrFVKXg
