The part people are missing here is that if the trading firms are all doing something, that in itself influences the market.
If they are all giving the LLMs money to invest and the AIs generally buy the same group of stocks, those stocks will go up. As more people attempt the strategy it infuses fresh capital and more importantly signaling to the trading firms there are inflows to these stocks. I think its probably a reflexive loop at this point.
I always thought it would be interesting in backend systems to catch a certain exceptions and auto-generate a link to a shell. Given the proper authentication is implemented would this be a good tool to achieve that "remote debug" shell?
This problem statement was actually where the idea for Proof of Work (aka mining) in bitcoin came from. It evolved out of the idea of requiring a computational proof of work for sending an email via cypherpunk remailers as a way of fighting spam. The idea being only a legitimate or determined sender would put in the "proof of work" to use the remailer.
I wonder how it would look if open source projects required $5 to submit a PR or ticket and then paid out a bounty to the successful or at least reasonable PRs. Essentially a "paid proof of legitimacy".
For anybody near DFW the Apollo 7 Command Module is on display at the Frontiers of Flight museum at Dallas Love Field. Its pretty amazing to see it in person and think about the engineering involved.

I was in a tiny surfing town in Costa Rica and they had gig fiber. You reach it via 3 hour car ride through the jungle and rivers on a single lane dirt road. Better internet than I have in the US.
This is assuming that Bitcoin wasn't invented by a government in the first place. Cryptos have a strong benefit to central authority in that they are simple to track flows of money, it's impossible to play a shell game if you can check the block chain. It becomes very easy to check the full transaction history of someone if you find out their addresses. Here is an NSA paper on cryptocurrency that came out in 1996

Enforcing illegal torrents failed. I think a cryptocurrency ban would be similar. Also, the US made it illegal to hold gold between 1933 and 1974 but almost nobody turned in gold to the feds. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_6102
Yes but the key difference is with cryptocurrency the person that owns the wallet still has to sign the transaction, there is no other way. It's a push model instead of pull. Compare this to traditional banking where a 3rd party (the bank) can aquiesce to a government request without your knowledge or approval.
