The funniest thing is that unless Sega is willing to legally challenge him he genuinely does own Green Knuckles despite not owning Regular Knuckles.

I know an internet petition won't do it, but I really hope we get there.

And I hope we get there without a financial meltdown like the one that got us securities regulations in the U.S. during/after the great depression :sun:

he wrote a blog post that, of course, explains nothing, but at least he's open about the fact that their DAO is actually controlled by him

even using this absolutely monumentally brain dead definition of energy, surely the currency that doesn't have 10-60 minute wait times and multiple high fees at every stage of the process would be the superior use of energy, less friction and all that

Love a profile that uses a picture of David Hilbert and calls itself "rtnlthkr", but only posts replies to tweets about crypto and is probably run by one of those Turtle clones in BAYC.

see bitcoin's value is derived from the amount of energy used to create it and the amount people will charge for labor is directly linked to the amount of energy it uses so paying someone to do a job uses exactly the same amount of energy as was used to mine the bitcoin, therefore it is a completely wasteless form of energy transference

it's so simple!
