@hjluks @StevenQuartz @Palmares_cph @AlpineCols @Alan_Couzens All I can say in my humble opinion after 26 years working with world champions and Olympic medalists in many sports as well as TdF winners is that HIIT is a very very small % of their workload. And I insist, a very very small percentage.

@IAmAnonToYou @OT_Parachain But the UI mislabels it as a polkadot address, right? It’s an address linked to the polkadot address. Btw, another way to see the mapping is to go into the extension and hide all accounts except the one you want, which then should be the only address appearing in the dropdown

FYI if you nominate me on DOT/KSM, gunna chill my validators and take them offline over the next few days

Crypto community continue to support Ukraine. I am grateful to @gavofyork, who made an impressive donation of $5M from @Polkadot $DOT. This will certainly contribute to the Ukrainian victory as well as support civil people. We will win — the best people with us.

1/ There are a few key moments that define our future. One is happening now in the Senate w/ the infrastructure bill. At the 11th hour @MarkWarner has proposed an amendment that would decide which foundational technologies are OK and which are not in crypto. This is disastrous.
