    Long term, the market is a weighing machine. If, relative to Bitcoin, Ethereum still grows and thrives a decade from now, that'll probably mean my current analysis is overlooking some important pieces of information.

    In the 60 Minutes piece on Bitcoin, a Federal Reserve governor couldn’t respond to ’s question about central bankers’ manipulation of US dollars. Instead she decided to talk about FDIC insurance and “legal protections.” 😂😂 LONG BITCOIN, SHORT THE BANKERS!!

    You can brute force open a password protected pkzip file for any password 16 chars or less using an Amazon cloud server for about 15 hours, costing ~$375 ($25 an hour). Don’t store bitcoin recovery keys in a pkzip unless they are worth less than that!

    Support for PKZIP Master Key added to with an insane guessing rate of 22.7 ZettaHash/s on a single RTX 2080Ti. All passwords up to length 15 in less than 15 hours with only 4 GPUs! Excellent contribution from and

    THREAD ON DEVS AS BLOCKCHAIN FIDUCIARIES 🔥🔥🔥 's thread is helpful & shows how fiduciary duties are relevant in the world. Unsurprisingly, I agree. His comment below illuminates important misunderstandings/misstatements about my work.

    Additional FN--much of this is laying the groundwork for how fiduciary duties COULD usefully apply in the blockchain world as part of a broader legal structure. Not that they currently DO apply as a matter of law (as Angela Walch wrongly claims they do).

    Many people are missing the point. I'm not saying that the SEC won't approve the ETF because there is manipulation. I'm saying that the SEC won't approve the ETF because it can't even tell if there was or wasn't manipulation since price discovery happens on unregulated exchanges.
