lmao if they think every publisher and developer is going to sing kumbaya and use a univeral ledger instead of each publisher creating their own chain to keep players in their ecosystem due to sunk cost.

Sorry don’t know how to embed Twitter links on mobile.

people with legit, impactful, secret news that are on their death bed generally don’t tease releases out over a month’s time. if this stuff is so important that it will rock crypto to its core either you just release it and put a torrent out or pass it off to a news org who can disseminate and report on it.

There's a delightful ouroboros of NFT feature sets being 'inspired' by MMOs leading to a fantasy of blockchain boosters imagining one day games will implement these features BUT ON THE BLOCKCHAIN.

Beyond that, you'd have to create art assets for every loving game to have a Slurp Juice or two to use on an Ape. Even if it's algoart, it's still going to take resources away from the real moneymaker: Nickle and dime DLCs.

lol 100 percent deposited ratio for stablecoins loooool

it is dumb that stablecoins should continue to exist, but if they are going to be permitted to exist, this is a good thing and the minimum that should be done about them, so I hope this is real. the last screenshot on that tweet also establishes "and 100% must be in good liquid assets, and we mean good poo poo like dollars and t-bills, not sketchy loans and other buttcoins"

"but you don't require banks to maintain a 100% reserve ratio abloobloobloo" they will cry, to which we say, yes, correct, and they also are not allowed to trade fractional shares in their customers' deposit accounts on public exchanges, now are they. if you wanna have freely-tradable shares in a fractional reserve bank, the paperwork to register your securities with the SEC is just a quick google search away

everything traded as an etf or similar divulges all their assets to the penny, and makes it freely available and will even loving mail you a paper prospectus with a detailed breakdown of the assets you are in essence purchasing if requested or even if you don't request it and brought a share for your ira.

also, 100% reserve cover actually IS required for non-bank financial institutions like payment processors in most jurisdictions. and even payment processors that have bank licenses will still maintain 100% reserve because they actually make money on fees, it's reassuring to their users (the merchants), and they don't want to extend their activities to mortgage lending or whatever

obviously i aint reading that but are they claiming that economies wouldn't be harmed by war if all transactions were on the blockchain? have we transcended "bitcoin can replace currency" and made it all the way to "bitcoin can replace the material economy?"

nah, they're claiming that countries won't need to demonstrate their power by blowing up other countries, because they could instead demonstrate their power by showing off how much mining power they have, therefore establishing which countries are stronger and weaker without any actual violence
