@iamyacine 1. You don't need a signatures if you have lean proof system.
2. 7mb is crazy, e.g. Neptune and Starknet produce something around 200kb
3. Zheng does ~30kb
@defidude@EFDevcon 1. Ethereum is obviously not right technology. It is working as backbone but due to the community mindset it will never become the ledger of meaning.
2. Unfortuntaly messaging does require consensus. If it would not transactions would not. However transactions are messages.

Turns out truly useful proof-of-work for AI has a stupidly simple, obvious solution.
Not pseudo-useful like Pearl — you can still brute-force it, just less profitably.
Not illusory like Bittensor — needs stake and subjective scoring.
A function that is useful by construction. It doesn't compete with the status quo. It replaces it
If WW3 starts, I don’t even understand what the fuck we’re supposed to be fighting for anymore.
I say this as someone who served in the military myself. Why should ordinary people be sent to die over conflicts, political interests and decisions they had absolutely no say in?
And why tf are people in their 60s and 70s making decisions that will destroy the futures of millions of young people? They won’t even be around in another 5-10 years, while our generation will have to live with the consequences for the rest of our lives.
There’s no real equality in any of this. Elections is an illusion of choice, giving ordinary people the feeling that they have control over the outcome while the biggest decisions are made without them.
And when things don’t turn out the way you wanted, it’s always “oh well next time it will I just need to convince more people to agree with me”
So you spend another 4 years arguing with people over politicians, convinced that the next election will finally change everything.
Meanwhile it’s the younger generations who will be sent to fight and die for decisions they never made.
We haven’t figured out how to scale from producing stuff to shipping stuff:
• 2,450% increase in lines of code
• 240% increase in commits
• but only 30% increase in releases

13 states, one failure mode: they can't shrink, so they can only squeeze.
The 21st century answer isn't a better jurisdiction. It's no jurisdiction. Networks don't need exit taxes because nobody is trapped inside them.

Pèp ayisyen,
Nou prèske fin deplwaye sòlda nou yo ak ekipman nou yo sou tè Ayiti. Sa a se pa yon operasyon kont pèp ayisyen an, ni yon envazyon peyi Ayiti. Nou pa yon gwo pisans. Nou pa gen okenn enterè ni pou nou vin domine pèp ayisyen an, ni pou nou mete men sou richès Ayiti.
Nou se yon peyi modès k ap devlope. Sèl sa nou vle, se pou kat teknisyen avyasyon nou yo tounen lakay yo. Epi n ap bay gang yo yon leson, gang sa yo k ap fè pèp ayisyen an soufri, ki touye moun pèp la renmen yo, k ap anpeche l viv yon lavi nòmal, lib, san laperèz.
Se prèske nou menm sèl k ap peye pou operasyon sa a. Menmsi nou resevwa yon ti èd lojistik nan men kèk lòt peyi, se ak pwòp ti kès nou n ap kouvri 90% nan depans yo.
Sa koute nou chè, men nou te aprann nan pwòp soufrans nou: jistis ak lapè pa gen pri. Nou te pase nan menm soufrans Ayiti ap travèse jodi a. Nou te viv yon beny san ki te pi terib toujou pase sa pèp ayisyen an ap sibi kounye a. Nou konnen sa sa vle di: viv nan laperèz, pa fè politisyen konfyans, pa kwè okenn moun ki pwomèt l ap ede w. Paske pèsonn pa t vin ede nou, e moun ki te vini yo pa t gen bon entansyon nan kè yo.
Men nou te rive chape anba sa. Apre 200 lane soufrans, finalman n ap viv nan lapè, e jodi a nou se peyi ki gen plis sekirite sou kontinan an.
Nou pa vin ann Ayiti pou nou touche lajan, paske pèsonn pa peye nou pou sa. Nou vin ann Ayiti pou nou goumen kont mechan yo.
Men sa m ap mande nou: fè nou konfyans, lapriyè sèl vrè Bondye a, epi mande L pou L geri Ayiti.
“Lè sa a si pèp ki pote non m lan lapriyè nan pye m, si yo soumèt devan mwen, si yo pran chache m ankò, si yo vire do bay vye peche yo t'ap fè yo, m'ap tande yo nan syèl kote m ye a, m'ap padonnen peche yo, m'ap fè peyi a kanpe ankò.”
2 Kwonik 7:14
Ede nou ede Ayiti.
Epi lè misyon nou an fini, n ap tounen lakay nou. Petèt jenerasyon Ayisyen k ap vini yo ap sonje nou kòm zanmi ki te vin ede yon lè.
