Initializing a new project - Interplanetary Markdown. Might explore a #Web3 (off-chain) approach later for a better experience, but for now, keeping it simple with good old #OpenPGP.

A censorship-resistant #Markdown publishing platform, enabling seamless content distribution. Powered by the Interplanetary File System (#IPFS), ensuring #blogs, #articles, and other written content remain accessible and verifiable across the distributed web.

Senator #KirstenGillibrand (D-NY) is basically a wholly owned subsidiary of #Coinbase, #a16z, and the rest of the US crypto industry (as this Op-Ed in CoinDesk makes abundantly clear).

Unfortunately she never got the memo about how the preferred nomenclature is now “#tokenization” and “RWAs” because “#Web3” just makes people think of monkey JPGs / #NFTs.

What’s really happening here is that Circle / Coinbase are trying to get the US Government to legislate #Tether out of their market. While I support this goal I don’t think legitimizing Circle’s #USDC - who are, if anything, worse about compliance than Tether - is good policy.

CoinDesk · Why We Need a Bipartisan Stablecoin Bill – GillibrandThe new Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act lays the groundwork for a new era of American exceptionalism, says Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, of New York.

#CryptoBros trying to co-opt things is the most #capitalist bullshit ever.

There's nothing that #web3 can't solve, and in effect, it will save you from those evil #tech oligarchs by instead replacing their quick and nimble cloud infrastructure with a slow and cumbersome gambling network that could - in theory - at some point be as effective, as long as everyone has dark fiber, 256GB of memory, 512TB of SSD storage and 8x dGPU's...

Y'know, just be rich - and you too can avoid the #oligarchy...

Foreign investors are buying pieces of rental homes for $50. What could possibly go wrong?

For tenants? Everything. Ignored repairs, unresponsive management, eviction letters, you name it.

And yes, it’s happening here in Detroit.

As I am building on @ArcBlock_io, I realized that all of their #web3 #Infrastructure is decentralized—website, domain name, #DecentralizedStorage, identity. Awesome. Stay tuned for my demo. For a guy who doesn't code, it's unbelievable. I think it will even make money.

"Lembra quando todos (de investimentos) pensaram que o #metaverso seria a próxima grande coisa que muda tudo e despejou dinheiro nele?

Lembra quando todos (de investimentos) pensavam que os #NFTs seriam a próxima grande coisa que mudaria tudo e despejaria dinheiro nisso?

Lembra quando todos (de investimentos) pensaram que #Web3 / #blockchain seria a próxima grande coisa que mudaria tudo e despejaria dinheiro nisso?

De qualquer forma, como vão os #LLMs (#ia)?"
