Maybe, but the experiences and friends I made in college last forever. I don't think it's necessary to be successful, but it also doesn't prevent someone smart from living up to their potential. Your kids should decide.

Because the only reason people believe in it is because it would be nice if it worked. Predictions are made and never met at the energy levels that should work.

yeah, but it is an opt-in model and these things can be handled on the social layer through reputation. Additionally, we are not talking about huge sums. A deposit of 5$ per user would already kill almost all spammers, the individual loss in a rug is low.

2024-07-31 07:37:04 UTC

- reply

which is a perfectly viable model I think. It would even allow to make it free for honest users and very costly for dishonest ones. There's always the possibility of rugs by the relay operators, but that's the risk a user is taking.

2024-07-31 07:31:26 UTC

How about some initial sats payment that is automatically reimbursed if the relay operator does not decide to slash it? That would allow for much higher prepayment but come at low cost for honest users

Snowbridge, a trustless bridge without multisigs, connects Polkadot and Ethereum and effectively makes Polkadot a L2 of Ethereum. It follows both Polkadot's consensus and Ethereum's via a light client.

What did you expect? It's really just a protocol that allows a stream of notes to relays that distribute it to all connected clients. There is nothing inherent to stop bad people of posting anything they want. Obviously, this is a hard problem, else we would not have all the issues with this everywhere.

2023-02-27 07:37:22 UTC

- reply

I am afraid a censorship resistant protocol allows a lot of garbage people to express their opinion / ideas. Clients do not yet offer sufficient protection here (like filtering of hateful speech / nudity etc.). Right now, censorship resistance is somewhat related to lack of moderation (which is the whole idea). Hopefully soon we will get algorithms (OS and exchangable) that we can choose to help us protect ourselves against content that we don't want to see.

2023-02-27 07:34:53 UTC

Yes, censorship resistance is the only claim that I can think of that the protocol tries to achieve. In what sense did that fail?
