L1 scalability is cypherpunk! As the goal is WIDESPREAD adoption of self-empowering technologies! This is best achieved by giving everyone direct access to the L1 Because L1 capacity enables privacy tech like mixers & ZK-proofs, while L2s only push more people into custodians!

While certainly disappointing, an arbitrary number of outages as thresholds for support are nonsensical. You need to identify and understand the root cause of each outage in isolation as well as the overall culture that leads to it. Solana favours safety over liveness. This…

Monero dumped significantly upon news it was getting delisted from Binance. The delisting is not good, as it makes an essential sovereignty tool harder to access for average users. But in the end, it's only an early warning. Every freedom-oriented crypto (should be all of…

It is disappointing to see SOL go down today There is a correct balance to be struck between innovation & stability; this is not it I will investigate the cause of this outage in depth later However, if SOL goes down more than twice this year, I will drop my support entirely!

It’s very simple, I’ll abandon $ALGO when it no longer makes sense to use DeFi on Algorand. $SOL $SUI and others are fine options. Also excited for what opportunities can be found with $VOI

If you truly cared about the blockchain revolution Then you should be willing to abandon your favorite cryptocurrency when its time comes Otherwise, you will be left behind with the others defending dinosaurs We have to put cypherpunk principles above any three-letter acronym!

I'm sorry, I hate to say, but I agree with @Justin_Bons. Build it, and they will come, they say... #SOL built it, and come they did - bots and all. Bots may inflate perceived usage, but whether you like it or not, # of bots has become a metrics of growth & usage. Don't be…

I think it’s funny how people think that @Justin_Bons’s firm possibly having invested in Solana somehow invalidates his opinion. Like they’re not shilling their bag? And so what if he is? That’s called putting your money where your mouth is and having skin in the game. If he has…

@Justin_Bons Everyone criticizing @Justin_Bons here is forgetting he’s one of the few people in crypto willing to articulate a thesis and reevaluate his conclusions when new information arises. If you think he’s wrong, talk to him youtu.be/e7hUe3Giilw?si…

Instead of criticizing SOL, alt-L1s should emulate it Yes, I am talking about you, ADA, HBAR, ALGO & EGLD! Upset about the amount of bots? Attract more bots! Upset about low fees enabling arbitrage? Lower the fees! Try & learn from SOL's success instead of blindly attacking it

The attacks on my character & reputation after posting the facts about SOL's TPS are shocking They cannot handle SOL's success! Let me break it down for you: 2732 TPS - consensus TXs = 1138; now deduct "failed TXs" - 60% = 455 TPS That is still more than all other blockchains!

1k TPS is a drop in the ocean of the world's demand for Web3. The Internet can't run on a single server. The Internet of Value can't run on a single monolithic blockchain, no matter how fast and willing to sacrifice decentralization. The endgame is ZK singularity: ⧫…

As it stands now, ETH has made ZERO commitment to on-chain scaling It sends the wrong signal as good investors operate on facts, not trust ETH used to be committed to sharding; now, there is no guarantee of based roll-ups, ZkEVM, or gas limit increases That is not good enough!

When people make excuses for Bitcoin being slow and expensive, they say it's because "decentralization" and L2s will work just fine. Show them this. Yeah, not working out so well. 😬
