Transaction validation is solved. We do not need to spend another atom of carbon on the problem. Alas we seem to be alone in this basic realization. https://x.com/i/status/1876464378213773768

I like this shift in thinking for prognostication to aspiration. VC truth or dare.

For years you have brought my attention to new ideas and connections as I've followed your blog from platform to platform. Over a decade ago I tried my best to get my wife to mortgage our house and buy 1000 BTC at 300. We settled on less than that, but it started my crytpo journey. From blockchain to Claire Silver you have been part business school, part canary in the coal mine - consistently ahead of most people spotting trends and talent. I think alot of people have rightly complimented you over the years. Now, you can add another company launch to your roster. On Dec 19th the team at vhash.xyz pushed our contract to mainnet launching carbon free crypto mining to the public, turning every Ethereum NFT into a cryptominer. Proof of NFT is the first virutal mining algorithm mining the first virtually mined crypto - VTOKEN. We have a lot to do in 2025, and an exciting roadmap. I just wanted to start the year off right with a thank you for the impact you've had on my thinking and output.

Americans love to brand and market things. DUMBO, down under manhanttan bridge in Brooklyn is the best example.

When we started building logins for vhash.xyz we ended up using @thirdweb - they have a robust login tool. They've really thought it through.

In 2011, we used to be smart nerds with custom USB-based Linux OS miners. Now, we mine crypto with art and cartoons.

"nobody wants to text their friends about a new consumer app in the year of our Lord 2024" got a laugh. What makes something innately shareable in your view? Other than free stuff, is it social capital? What is that driver to you?

The idea for Proof of NFT germinated a while back. It was like a weed and kept surfacing in conversations that @linenoise and I were having. We had to build it and as we talked it through, our spec evolved to include: Decarbonizing cryptocurrency mining globally Democratizing access globally Foster communities over time Take the best of PoW and Airdrops and combine them Also: Easy/free onboard. Simple consumer ux. NFTs never leave the user's wallet. No internet connection to mine, only to claim. Robust administrative controls for Enterprise. The result - VHASH.xyz Now, every Ethereum NFT is a cryptocurrency miner, developing Proof of NFT, and creating VHASH, an enterprise SaaS company specializing in reliable token creation and distribution. As of this writing, early adopters and a growing community have mined over 200 billion VTOKENS from a 15+ years / 100T supply contract. We look forward to 2025 as we deploy new collections, chains, and tokens and start going deep on ERC 4337.

This reminds me of the plot hole in Terminator. There was only one AI - Skynet. For the movie to truly work there should have been a Darknet with a competing objective.

Not necessarily "an NFT" so much as a new class of NFTs, and deployable utitlity to existing ETH NFTs. vhash.xyz. one of our devs @berlin has spent a good deal of time with frames, looking to see how we can implement.
