Now I know who started the April bull run lol

Fascinating! I think this combined with the fact that DAI still trading at 97~98 cents per dollar reveals the long position of the speculative CDP owners

A million likes to @sendwyre and @MakerDAO for having such informative conversation!

2/ Meanwhile, on why it is probably not desired to address the peg by changing the debt ceiling:

1/ MakerDAO is requesting for public feedback for another rate increase in observation of non-satisfactory market response to the previous rate adjustment https://www.reddit.com/r/mkrgov/comments/b2m7oo/governance_poll_proposed_stability_fee_increases/

Interesting view on the recent $DAI discount. It seems 3.5% fee probably isn’t high enough to throttle CDP creation

Executed. That was unprecedentedly fast

MakerDAO voting is very active recently in an effort to stabilize DAI-USD peg. Exciting to watch how the mechanisms work

Ethereum Constantinople hard fork has been postponed due to a last minute bug discovered. All full nodes has to update within the next 28 hours. This is going to be chaotic, and hopefully we don’t see a fork. https://twitter.com/ethereum/status/1085291959390998534?s=21

Just made my first purchase with DAI. The merchant accepts Bitcoin, I paid it with @sendwyre which helps convert DAI to BTC on the fly. No more coinbase-ing :)

Nice suggestion on how to sync node from scratch fast and economically in the cloud. Should work for Ethereum nodes, too

SSH vulnerability. Patch your bitcoin/ethereum/whatever node machine right NOW!

(Slapping my own face) Correction: Turns out it IS an inflation vulnerability! A malicious actor could’ve minted unlimited bitcoins out of this. Bottom line: the threat is cleared now and no exploits are found.

If a quantum computer can break ECDSA but not yet SHA-256, then it will not be able to break in the wallet addresses that’ve never been used to sign. That’s one reason why it’s safer to never reuse an address.

2) “The one thing that does help is to have multiple versions (implementations) of the same software.”

1) A denial-of-service vulnerability of Bitcoin Core Wallet (not the protocol itself) has been patched.

Nice read about the future roles of public chains vs private chains (or more specifically, cryptographic signatures. It does not have to be a chain)

The only way to keep your invention open to everyone is to patent it <— that sounds like a broken system

Hmm my last peep yesterday seems lost in transaction. Maybe I did something wrong. Trying again:

This is the first time I hear about it! Thanks for letting me know, I gonna check it out :)

At least for some of the wallets we get to review their source codes ourselves. It’s not sufficient, and not many people actually do review it, but I think having such option is important

Decentralized cryptographic security vs centralized social security

Learning from Fomo3D airdrop contract exploit: (1) How not to tell if an address is a smart contract, (2) How not to attempt generate random numbers on-chain

(3/3) When scale becomes the bottleneck and sharding, multi-layer solutions arise, it seems inevitable a dapp must defer re-construction of its state through event streams in order to stay cost efficient.

(2/3) To me it resonates with an article from Jay Kreps, one of the creators of Apache Kafka, on the role of event logs for a scalable, distributed application.
