Didn’t make it to BNB Hack Abu Dhabi?Catch up on @cz_binance's AMA session covering builders, AI, privacy, decentralization, RWAs and the future of onchain development 👇BNB Chain (@BNBCHAIN):BNB Chain Core Contributor @cz_binance hosted an AMA at #BNBHack Abu Dhabi, covering builders, AI, privacy, decentralization, RWAs and where onchain innovation is heading.Here’s a breakdown of the key ideas he shared 🧵👇 https://t.co/mNTpROchRC ...

Stablecoins & Economic Trends - The industry is at the "end of a supercycle" where banks are panicking [1] - The US government will inevitably embrace stablecoins to absorb debt [1] MetaMask & Consensys - MetaMask is evolving into a user-owned "full-service bank" that puts Wall Street in your pocket [1] - Consensys co-founder discusses MetaMask's future [1] - Consensys has a history of spin-outs [2] Linea & Decentralization - LineaBuild's permissionless edge over gatekept rollups is highlighted [1] - Decentralization is a key topic related to Linea [2] Technology & Scaling - L1 Scaling & ZK (Zero-Knowledge) are discussed [2] - Permissionless Rollups are a key area of focus [2]

Bitcoin's Core Value Proposition - Bitcoin is essential not just as an alternative to failing fiat currencies, but as a defense against the increasing infringement of digital rights [1] - The primary purpose of Bitcoin is to ensure the ability to transact freely, emphasizing sovereignty over mere value appreciation [6] - Bitcoin's inherent cryptography is a potent tool for securing economic and data sovereignty, resistant to governmental or institutional override [35] Societal and Political Implications - Existing monetary systems are fragile and susceptible to censorship, making Bitcoin a crucial tool for individuals facing economic or political restrictions [6] - Bitcoin facilitates economic solidarity among individuals globally, independent of potentially oppressive nation-states [38] - The current trend towards centralization and control threatens individual sovereignty, highlighting the need for tools like Bitcoin [10] Investment and Business Strategies - A successful Bitcoin treasury strategy requires a solid underlying business model, rather than solely relying on price appreciation [8] - The focus should be on understanding the problems Bitcoin solves, rather than viewing it as just another investment option [10] Technological and Future Perspectives - Bitcoin is uniquely positioned to enable monetization of AI on a peer-to-peer basis [7] - Open-source AI, alongside Bitcoin, presents a promising path towards a future with greater individual freedom and agency [91] - The convergence of AI, Bitcoin, and psychedelics could potentially lead to a "sovereignty renaissance," empowering individuals to take control [99] Security and Custody - Securely holding Bitcoin requires robust architecture, such as multi-institution custody models, to distribute risk and ensure resilience [18][19] - Self-custody of Bitcoin, ideally using multisig setups with geographically distributed keys, is crucial for maintaining privacy and control [87]

ICYMI:BSCN (@BSCNews):STARKNET V0.14.1 GOES LIVE ON MAINNET WITH MAJOR EFFICIENCY AND FEE UPGRADES- @Starknet has deployed v0.14.1 on mainnet. On paper, a minor upgrade, but it’s a key step toward real-time cost alignment and sustainable decentralization.- Starknet reduced the portion of blocks https://t.co/NeT61T3a6K ...

COMMENT: Starknet cut down on block space used for non-user-facing data like Blake hashes, giving more room to transactions that matter to users.BSCN (@BSCNews):STARKNET V0.14.1 GOES LIVE ON MAINNET WITH MAJOR EFFICIENCY AND FEE UPGRADES- @Starknet has deployed v0.14.1 on mainnet.

RT Djani (@DjaniWhaleSkul)Had this in my notes for a while, and after listening to Eli Ben-Sasson again, I got excited.I explored @Starknet properly for the first time last year after talking with my friend @Cudan_Svat, who’s deep in the ecosystem. That conversation pushed me to dig in. And when you remember Eli isn’t just the mind behind Starkware but also the co-founder of $ZEC, it hits differently. He has been shaping cryptography for decades.I’ve been hunting for my picks of this cycle for a long time. ...

RT Eli Ben-Sasson | Starknet.io (@EliBenSasson)I listened to this amazing talk by Saylor. Similarities and differences w/ Starknet:Similarities --1. Both use the $STRK symbol (we chose it first!)2. Both believe in a huge Bitcoin Economy (we were first!)Differences --1. We're building a DECENTRALIZED Bitcoin Economy.2. We believe You--not we, nor Saylor--should custody your Bitcoin. Not your keys, not your coins. True for the Starknet $STRK, not so for Strategy one.3. We built ZK blockchain tech.4. He has 10 ...

RT Brother Lyskey 🥷 (@Lyskey)Ever since staking went live a year ago, we’re already halfway through the full implementation.That means we’re halfway to the full decentralization of Starknet.Also:> 1.1B STRK are already staked rn (~23% of circulating supply)> 1,700 BTC as wellStaking is clearly one of Starknet’s biggest wins this year. ...
