Brendan Eich is also the inventor of JavaScript and the former CTO of Mozilla.
While I don't support Prop 8 personally, I don't think we should judge technical products on political opinions of their author. You may think it's funny to advocate for bans and boycotts, until the other side does it too and we get a world split in 2 (or more).
Report which you don't get from centralized exchanges. So you have to trust them and they should somehow be liable for the provenance of what they sell to you.
Probably most CEX don't allocate UTXOs upon buying, but only for withdrawals
If anything, from my personal experience, "crypto" brought financial resources to minorities, especially PoC in the US. Some of them would never had that chance in the traditional world if you identify to that cause.
It's not "old fashioned", I think you are being fed propaganda by these NGOs.
Sadly, same goes for a huge part of the mainstream media that becomes an echo chamber for them (Guardian, NYT for example that used to be reference of truth but lost that status).
Don't take my word for it, please take the time to read opposite views and try to honestly make your own opinion.
Seems like 228V vs 238V is just binning on max freq...
If we take into account durability (some may say 125H is the best of the bunch right now...), they can be interesting solutions with a good perf/w ratio.

+100
Rule in blockchain: Whenever there is money beyond paying for services/infra like AWS, there is a problem.
> I don't think you are getting downvoted for supporting crypto
Still, every of my post that is more or less supportive of crypto gets downvoted. And I am the first to tell the ecosystem is one of the worst in tech so that's always mild support.
But yes, you're right it's probably sem web people overreacting to _my_ rant :)
But zk-based really decentralized consensus now does 400 tps and it's extraordinary when you think about it and all the safety and security properties it brings.
And that's with proof-of-stake of course with decentralized sequencers for L2.
But I get that people here prefer centralized databases, managed by admins and censorship-empowering platforms. Your bank stack looks like it's designed for fraud too. Manual operations and months-long audits with errors, but that is by design.
Thanks everyone for all the downvotes.
