That doesn’t sound right. Only competition that matters is for clients and what’s your marketing proposition?
“wE DoN’t SupPort OpeNSouuRce”?
lol
You even have Cathie “I’ll-get-your-401k” Woods sponsoring Bitcoin developers, whoever they are are new to the game and/or very small.

That’s not very realistic, it’s like saying openAI is afraid of a new tensorflow version. That open source part is open source for very good reasons (better security, testing, having brains from universities viewing and reviewing) and all the value delivered to customers come from how the company uses that part.
For Bitcoin it’s the same, better security, cryptography, etc.. come from open source, if a company wants to build their own Bitcoin you end up with a crap like BCH or BSV which the market does not like.
It makes zero business sense, that can’t be the reason

Currently building something cool: read all oil and gas news, get sentiment index with LLM, weight it by how many times has the news been read, create an index.
First time toying around with machine learning for finance, for a weekend project it’s interesting 🧐

It’s the old “add gas fees” scam, the token are there but there’s no gas to move them, so the victim adds some eth or whatever and the scammer immediately withdraws 😂
that scams requires the concept of embedded tokens, so potentially you could do something similar also with rgb/taro I guess

This episode was super interesting: we delved into what are euro-dollars, petro-dollars and then the infamous NAKA-dollars.
Basically dollars outside US banks are not “protected by the FED”, they are outside M2 and they accounted for up to 90% of all international loans. They were born when Soviets wanted to move their dollars from US banks to European ones fearing sanctions in the early 50s (history doesn’t repeat but for sure rhymes..).
Then in the 70s payments for oil were structured as follows: an oil importer asked a non-US bank for a loan in dollars, at the same time the oil exporter received it as dollar deposit as payment for the oil. The balance of the banks is 0, they can create as much as they want of this! There is what’s called a maturity mismatch: the loans last years while the deposit could be moved to another bank at any time. This problem brought to life all form of financial tools to make sure the flow of oil continues unhindered.
Naka-dollar, as defined by Bitmex Ayes, are just a derivative product which always contains 1USD of bitcoin. This has some super interesting trades behind, but we analyzed how could that be used in the future, when Bitcoin will be too precious to exchange on a daily basis.
The #podcast is in Italian 🇮🇹 as there are no macroeconomics podcast for Bitcoiners here (that I know of), there are indeed famous bitcoin podcasts, but they focus either on the tech or on adoption. Very rarely the business or financial side of things is discussed, so that’s the niche we chose with Bitcoin Cabana.

The anticounterfeiting tools have been unveiled! They will assist in identifying genuine products and shipments, unlocking novel customer journeys, and generating analytics that are currently unattainable.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQKnazbrl84
During the unveil day at @EU_IPO, representatives of the 4 brands: Mercedes, Angelini Pharma, Equip Outdoors and Harman Kardon and of the 2 logistics operators: JAS and KLM, discussed the results of the pilot project which involved real import shipments coming from China, Vietnam and the United States passing through the Dutch Customs.
What are the primary elements?
1) Digital certificates issued by EUIPO that enable anyone to verify data signed by an authentic brand owner.
2) An extension to digital tokens (NFTs) that describes the genuine object, ensuring that only legitimate brands can sign these extensions. Creating counterfeit digital representations becomes impossible.
3) A logistics protocol for exchanging shipment details, accompanied by evidence of originating from a genuine brand owner. This facilitates improved risk assessment and streamlined data sharing within the supply chain.
What are the main advantages?
1) Easy identification of real shipments and easy cross checking of object details against approved and expected details. This can be leveraged even by Customs.
2) New digital tool for customer experiences which can collect data and offer new services.
3) Faster data sharing for logistics: analytics on real time events, item by item logistics costs and supply chain commercial insights
All the tools are opensource, if you have any question please feel free to reach out, we can schedule a demonstration of the main steps.
Last but not least, a big thank you to all the stakeholders and blockathon members, it is a great adventure and I'm looking forward working with you!

some clients and relays can implement an hashing task, but I’m not sure it will make any difference: as soon as the spam is profitable the profiteer can invest in hardware way faster than the average user. So basically it will “rate limit” only humans

PS: https://nostrplebs.com/.well-known/nostr.json?name=bitdecoina
It actually looks ok, the key looks in exadecimal, which is correct for nip05 so maybe it’s just a UI bug and the verification is ok under the hood

2023-03-01 13:16:43

- reply

I didn’t setup my nip05 yet, but if I got it right: verification means on the domain of your nip there must be a file “domain.com/.well-known/nostr.json”
If the file is not present or not configured correctly - it must have inside { “names”:{“bitdecoina”:”npub…”}} then I guess you see verification pending
If you use a service for hosting the json, then you have to ping the service provider as probably something is broken on their side.
