when are ORUs going to be more expensive than ZKRUs

Trust is infinitely more efficient, scalable, dynamic, and crucially - subjective. It defines humanity as a species. It is also more difficult, needs great coordination, empathy and belief in your fellow being. Giving up, being a misanthrope, and throwing over the chessboard for distrust tech like public blockchains is easy, and sometimes, it's the only way out. 

But we must do everything possible to embrace and improve trust, and avoid distrust as far as possible.

This thought is inspired by Yuval Noah Harari, though I also briefly wrote about this a couple of years ago: https://polynya.medium.com/rediscovering-trust-31bc4f3c8713

To me, the biggest problem with "proof of human origin" is that "human-created" vs "AI-created" is a false binary. Most art and code I create involves many rounds of interaction between me and models. I suspect most interesting things made this decade will be like this

I mean, yes — everyone needs to believe it’s an alternative SoV, but that alone won’t take it anywhere!

Fascinating how you can identify which bags they are shilling from a couple of sentences 

IMO, it all boils down to the simple reality that >90% of crypto's $ value comes from being alternative stores-of-value, and that is entirely a belief system. Justifying beliefs with "tech" does not mean valuations are tech-based

@dwr.eth @v why doesn’t the Warpcast client allow users to mute other users but still follow them like on Twitter? Is this a functionality in the pipeline?
