ekuNNN posted:or is it??  was the only response I would have hoped for.  I decided to Google crypto ethics and drat, everything in a nice article for the most part. Some parts weird. Did I walk into a reasonably neutral site or is this good/bad? https://sevenpillarsinstitute.org/ethics-update-on-cryptocurrencies seven pillars posted:The banning of Bitcoin is driven by ethical issues surrounding Bitcoin being the favoured payment method for criminals. Users have reported their Bitcoins stolen due to hacking. These issues potentially infringe consumer’s rights, including those from low-income countries. Cryptocurrencies pose significant ethical challenges in regards to their use in illicit activities. However, the ethics concerns arise from the lack of regulations, not from blockchain technology per se. Also, these challenges do not outweigh cryptocurrencies’ promises of significantly improving the quality of life for the world’s most destitute. bold = ???? & same source posted:Lastly, the price volatility and the insecurity about future performance rules out Bitcoin taking over the function of the store of value and the medium of deferred payments which both require (expected) long term stability.

Don't buy a 3090. You can get 95% of the way there with a 3080 12GB for $700 (at Lenovo's store, with the coupon codes "EXTRA5" and "LABDAY2022"). Or you can just buy a 3060 Ti or 3070 for $400/$500 like a sensible person (the Founders Editions keep showing up at Best Buy). Prices have been falling pretty much continuously for the last several months, and they'll continue to drop, possibly more rapidly than before with the upcoming mining card sell-off and new card releases.

They are switching to a system that simply gives those with the most money the most Ethereum, effectively skipping the middleman. There is a slight difference in the people that will run it, because most GPU mines aren't 100% crypto focused, since they need to actually pay for hardware and electricity. A lot of them probably won't have the Eth required for staking, since they operate mostly with actual money. The people who actually will win on this are the big holders, NFT owners, people who bought millions of Eth during its launch etc, so there will be a somewhat change in control.

Doubt the NFT holders will win. They just have apes and you can’t stake with those, regardless of their nominal “””value..””” Now the people who sold links to lovely jpegs for eth? Those people might be well situated for this.

Ups_rail posted:I m confused with Ethereum merg, how does the merg stop the use of gpu mining. So right now, Ethereum is using the same "Proof of Work" GPU mining thing BitCoin does; it's the "Idling your car produces solved Sudokus you can sell for internet funbux" method. ETH has been saying for years (and may actually do it this time!) that they want to move over to a system called Proof of Stake. Proof of Work works by trying to figure out the math problem that produces a specific solution when the contents of a block are put into it (that's where the "block" of blockchain comes from, as well as the "Crypto" of cryptocoin: the method used is a one-way-hashing algorithm, one of the basic concepts of Cryptography as a useful science); since it's one-way, you can't just back up from the solution to get the formula given the inputs; you have to basically just guess. That's basically what all those GPUs are doing all day, every day, until they explode: trying to guess the hashing algo that will spit out a number. Proof of Stake works differently: rather than trying to guess a number, you tell the network "I'm willing to burn X eth", meaning they get pulled completely from circulation and can never be used again for anything else; in exchange, you get an X/eth_pool_size chance of being the validator for a block and therefore being awarded the newly generated eth. Obviously, the flaws in this (both logistical, such as "Coins cannot be destaked", and ethical, such as "doesn't this just reward people who have money with more money?") are either intentional or assumed to not be a problem and, in fact, Good for Coins.

Neito posted:Yes, and nothing. Well, to be fair on the second point, there "is" something there to prevent it in the sense that validators are incentivized to not gently caress with the system as it would dramatically devaluate their assets. After all, relying on actor rationality is a well-established way to provide stability. It isn't, in case anyone would dare to read that as anything but sarcasm.

Aren't Color Museum these assholes that tried to become the pantone of NFTs? Without doing any research, I'm going to bet that these rugfools are structured in a way where whoever "owns" the primary color of a given NFT gets a cut out of them, and the main objective is to prop up the value of the original project. Edit: Alright, I've wasted enough time on this. One of the promo videos is voiced and animated, starts with "Hello everyone, I'm perfect blue", and its background color is #006597. There also happens to be a "color NFT" with the same name for #006496 https://www.color.museum/gallery/color-nft/25750. They tried to obfuscate the link in the promo material by shifting the color values by 1, but it's pathetically obvious. Aramis fucked around with this message at 22:48 on Sep 12, 2022 |
