It's a shame to see #TRON trying to inject themselves into #bittorrent, which has worked well for years without it and is a shining example of the success of p2p networks.
I'd hate to see anything bad happen to #bittorrent for the sake of a cheap pump.

#bitcoin has achieved incredible things in just 10 years. The future is bright for #bitcoin, for the patient and perseverant, because there is a long way to go ahead, and no going back.

@udiWertheimer Ironic that we now have literal IOTA sheep to go along with the figurative ones

In the future, we will laugh at the fact that people seriously considered PoS as a solution to secure the world reserve currency. Some are already laughing now.

Scaling a company via code and contracts instead of via people mitigates the Principal-Agent problem.

Scaling via community-generated code and content mitigates Hayek’s Local Knowledge problem.

“We don’t need a Fed. I have, for many years, been in favor of replacing the Fed with a computer. It would print out a specified number of paper dollars to augment the money supply. Same number, month after month, year after year.” — Milton Friedman, 1999

@fluffypony Asic resistance is ok, but when mine #Monero with a beer can?

@cqmk_ @udiWertheimer Are you calling Bitcoin a shitcoin?

[cqmk @cqmk_]

@AsherManning @udiWertheimer “Never an unbannable shitcoin”

I’m sorry. Are you completely oblivious to what bitcoin is and why it succeeded over previous centralised e-cash projects?

#TRON really is the shitcoin of shitcoins https://t.co/DYq79jAY1a

@udiWertheimer Sounds to me like there's some good ICO potential here. I've seen plenty of 'Energy Efficient' shitcoins, but never an 'Unbannable' shitcoin.

[Udi Wertheimer @udiWertheimer]

It isn’t a coincidence that the same people who believe “Bitcoin wastes energy” also believe one could “Ban Bitcoin”

[Binary District @BinaryDistrict]

In a recent Deloitte survey, 70% of execs said they consider themselves "#blockchain experts" - a ridiculous stat. What do you think the biggest myth around blockchain is?

The Navals of the world will say that Bitcoin doesn’t incentivize development and that’s why innovation happens on featurecoins. But the only lasting innovation of featurecoins is in marketing. Devs are incentivized to move on to another coin as soon as they encounter a challenge

You become an accredited investor by... Investing in things. Yet you're not allowed to invest in most things if you're not accredited.

The more I think about it, the less sense this makes, and the more it feels the system is broken and the cards are stacked against us.

2018 has been a confusing year
