LLMs don’t notice the frown or smile as you talk about sad memories or incidents. They don’t notice the underlying emotions that aren’t explicitly expressed through words. They don’t have the timing of when to ask questions that deepen your experience. They also don’t provide the regulated nervous system when you’re feeling dysregulated.

LLMs are basically glorified CBT machines, but they don’t have the Rogerian presence and therapeutic alliance that good therapists are able to provide, and are more important than the modalities that are used in sessions.

That’s not Satoshi

Exactly. Adam is also very emotional when he writes, and Satoshi was nothing like it.

Why are journalists giving this guy exposure?

He doesn’t write anything like Satoshi.

Pretty crazy for countries to demand Bitcoin that has no clear plans for quantum. Not to mention security budget issues.

Actually, a hacker printed 184 billion BTC in 2010 and the chain got rolled back by Satoshi

Nope, because SSD/HDD tech has evolved in capacity while the costs have gone down.

Minting and selling NFTs in general require more computation, but many smart contracts with NFTs have been gas optimized compared to 2021, sometimes requiring less approvals and transactions.

A lot of activity moved to L2s, making L1 gas cheaper, and so simple ETH and token sends are cheaper. L2s will continue to get cheaper, with the next hard fork around November and L1 gas should be even cheaper with the hard fork after the next.

You probably need to update your sources. It’s super cheap to send ETH

Yep. Also, censorship by validators will be impossible if FOCIL is included in 2 hard forks from now.

To be fair, Ethereum wasn’t rolled back like Bitcoin got rolled back in 2010.

Ethereum had a surgical state change on a smart contract via hard fork that implemented that change, so it had 0 effect on other blocks.

Using Bitcoin for payments is a tax nightmare and clunky UX.

Stablecoins are way better, albeit on more decentralized chains like Ethereum.

Like many L1s that have become Ethereum L2, so will this in time.

Those scaling limits are temporary though. PeerDAS in the next hardfork should increase scalability even more on the rollups.

Most of these L1s will likely end up becoming L2s in the near future, especially if they can rake in revenue via sequencers

There’s really no need for a separate L1 to do stablecoins. Just build a rollup on Ethereum.

Most of the stablecoins are on Ethereum, which is Proof of Stake, and the remaining is on centralized chains like Tron.

Gas fees on Ethereum L2s like Base cost $0.0016 to send USDC, and $0.00064 to send ETH.
