RT Kazbek Bektursunov (@kazbekbek)@thetenderforlaw @NickSzabo4 I permanently reread your articles and post many times. Not just because of your cool unconventional thinking but because of Romans called style: rigorous honesty, real interest, noble integrity. Thank you @NickSzabo4 ...

RT Rock Chartrand🤑 (@RockChartrand)Anyone who claims a product or service is a “right” is saying something far darker than they admit. If you have a right to a doctor’s time, a farmer’s crops, a builder’s labor, or a programmer’s work, then by consequence the people who produce those things exist to serve you. Their effort becomes an obligation. Their time becomes a duty. Their life becomes a means to your ends.You cannot have a “right” to something that must be created by someone else unless you believe th ...

RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)Corporatism vs. socialism: an awful dichotomy, like Odysseus having to choose between having his ships destroyed by rocks if he steered them a bit too far north, and being sucked in by a whirlpool if they went a bit too far south.Innovations at large social scales -- and I daresay I helped a bit with that myself -- have often been a great economic boon for mankind. Innovations in contract law, property law, financial markets, and related areas have, after maturation, often turned ...

RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)My post is about legible content -- the Samourai business is a different matter. There are many design principles one could employ, but the first and most obvious one is don't expand data buckets to allow legible content to fit comfortably inside, as Core v30 has infamously done. ...

RT Evan Wilburn (@bobleewaggeris)Many are underestimating the risk here.I think @NickSzabo4 is signaling something deeper: it’s probably not wise to expand Bitcoin’s default data-relay surface right when the network is under peak institutional scrutiny.The threat isn’t just misuse or spam.It’s the narrative an adversary could manufacture.“Thousands of Bitcoin nodes are transmitting prohibited material.”There are entire libraries of laws governing legible digital content, and very few people in Bitcoin under ...

RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)Anarcho-capitalism is a wonderfully abstract ideal that can inspire innovation. It helped inspire me to help invent cryptocurrency.But real-world cryptocurrencies are not trustless -- they are trust-minimized. Each cryptocurrency has a legal attack surface, representing the kinds of ways governments and/or private entities can practically use law to disrupt their operations. The layer 1 of a good trust-minimized cryptocurrency like Bitcoin can withstand much more interference than ...
