🌶️: fungibility is a feature for issuers who want to competitively value their productive output against network reserve asset

just issue as close to the consensus layer with as little abstraction tax as possible.

complexity doesn't scale, but reciprocal alignment to the broadest network stack is the most lindy and the most competitive.

h/t @z0r0z for simplifying L1 coins and ZAMMs.

I want a simple thing. I want an L1 optimized exchange. https://t.co/YgTM2nyi71

Economics

BREAKING: Warren Buffett, who built Berkshire Hathaway into a business valued at more than $1.16 trillion, will step down at year-end after six decades atop the conglomerate.

I think we're going to look back at this as the end of both global reserve currencies.

as well as traditional value investing.

who knows, we'll see.

either users modify their personal complexity into their UX, while increasingly opting in feedback to the rest of the pain ladder...

or shortcuts get abstracted away as complexity, and the end UX is perplexingly bad.

The pain ladder 🪜 

1. Users
2. App devs 
3. Infra devs 
4. Validators 
5. Core eng
6. BD/marketing
7. CEO 

Users pain is more important to fix then app devs then infra devs then validators then @trentdotsol’s

Core devs, app devs and validators should eat as much of complexity as possible for the end user.

ngl, this is what I hope the crypto stockpile can be a carrot for:
https://x.com/pronounced_kyle/status/1918682592452456525

we need power plants and datacenters. why not emit ETH to homesteads who procure enough resilient offgrid power and comms to become validators, eventually provers (like /faust)?

or, considering https://medium.com/chick-fil-atech/enterprise-restaurant-compute-f5e2fd63d20f, why not distribute BTC stockpile for additional long-term appendages (like Buc-ee's) to the National Highway System, balancing out the load?

The first transcontinental railroad (from Iowa to San Francisco Bay) was built in 6 years (1863 - 1869) with no pre-existing infrastructure to support the work for about $1.2B in today's dollars. https://t.co/8251oxbcwF

The railroad boom in the late 1800s is fascinating &amp; instructive

▸ the government really wanted railroads

▸ so they made a law that gave you 20 square acres of land, for free, for every mile of railroad you built (!)

▸ this led to massive speculation and overbuilding (far

obviously a lot of capital and resources behind this. many will acclimate to outcompete FOSS analogues.

my intuition is that this will not last, or it's going to be another Foxconn or Epic system in competition with the rest of the market.

the space is missing "Bazaar" mechanics that are as capture-resistant as they are sybil-resistant, versus classic "Cathedral" approach.

v1 - resource allocation system tradeoffs | available on @zora

these attributes consider operators and “users”/beneficiaries.

what's missing? what's overfit? can it also be mapped to anti-sybil mechs? should this be a 2x2? https://t.co/y23ZHPPcBl

all three properties can be satisfied in a credibly balanced, constructed sybil resistance.

Proof of Work hash lottery is overfit to simplicity, but it's a metagame of relative hash power, and the product is illegible to any other purpose.

oof
glad to see SLS held accountable, but some of this slack will necessarily fall on private actors.

interesting little development, though it's not universal right-to-repair that's needed in heavy industry and consumer robotics.

wonder what happens with USACE maintenance of domestic infra...

Price control nobody talks about: single family zoning. 

Land is $6M when code allows one mansion. Allow 50 condos and the same dirt clears $15M.

Zoning isn't neighborhood character, it's price control for luxury homes.

Up-zoning unlocks billions in land value, lifts property

I love single family homes. 

I don’t like the government dictating what people can or can’t do on their own land. 

I support freedom zoning. https://t.co/vn3Pzf5gt3

freedom zoning sounds invigorating
