The clock of international politics is turning cruelly. Ukraine is just the appetizer. Is the main course the United States dismembering the European Union? The three-country war between the East, the United States, and the European Union
I haven't written anything too macro for three or four months. On the one hand, it's the end of the year/beginning of the year. Whether it's official business or family affairs, there are a lot of miscellaneous things, so I don't have much time and energy to write. On the other hand, encryption is now micro-structured on the chain, and the macro-impact is indirect. Except for Bitcoin, the path of action on specific targets is relatively vague. So today I will write about the topic of international politics as a hobby. However, if we extend it to a two-year period, this change in the global pattern may be closely related to everyone. 0 reply

1994, Washington. Nick Szabo, a member of the cypherpunk group, was writing in his humble apartment. On the screen was a paper on "smart contracts". Szabo's apartment was filled with books on law and computer science. As a researcher who was interested in both fields, he had been thinking about how to combine the certainty of law with the precision of computer programs. "Imagine a vending machine," Szabo wrote, "that's the simplest smart contract. It doesn't need a judge to enforce the contract, it doesn't need a policeman to maintain order, the rules are written in the machine's program."
"There are too many problems with traditional contracts," he told reporters who came to interview him, "performance depends on human will, and dispute resolution requires lengthy litigation. But if we can encode the contract into a program, it will run strictly according to the preset rules. No judges, no lawyers, only code." 0 reply
