I've only used mastodon for a week. My account just got suspended for: "Being a capitalist" I am not sure what that means. But I guess I can fix it by sending some moneros to the server owner? The Fediverse is not very welcoming.

Does any mastodon expert know how to transfer you account if it gets suspended? I thought the option to move was always there. So with account suspension and data deletion, basically the server owner can unilaterally decide to destroy user's account or hold them hostage?

Do not accept projects "opensource washing" their work. BSL is not opensource and uniswap v4 was released with a BSL license. Therefore uniswap v4 is not #opensource Building in public is opensource. But getting the public to build for you without giving back is what BSL does

Now please tell me. Really tell me. How on earth can you put so much pressure, overreach and "send a message" for a kid who just downloaded academic papers. And for @SBF_FTX that pathological liar who stole $10B interview him, applaud him, write puff pieces about him? HOW?

Hey @graphprotocol I just realized you guys are in @optimismFND RPGF3 No doubt you made some nice contributions to the community but since you've raised more than 270 million dollars and the entire RPGF round is $30m $OP think you can leave a few crumbles to the small guys?

I read about @jpmorgan 's dissapointment towards Ethereum. If you actually read the "report" you will see the analyst's name. Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou Take a look at some of their past work. The image on the left is from 2022, with my own commentary added Right is the new report

We are mad at the US sanctioning @TornadoCash addresses. Wait till Europe, the "leader in regulation" takes a sniff of this. Can already see them planning a package to outdo the Americans Unhosted wallet touching tornado? Banned. Any link to tornado? Banned. Sky is the limit!

There is public shaming, but there is also public praising. I want to give a huge kudos to @safe , for deciding not to participate in RPGF3 (they did in round 2 though they raised $100m) Their contracts are 100% a public good and are being used by all of us! Despite that they…

TL;DR: 1. Move the one thing that everybody uses to understand what happens onchain, the contract log data, off-chain 2. To a closed source indexer 3. Centrally hosted and queried via a (for now) free API 4. Company raises $9M Doesn't take a genius to see where this is going.

@SBF_FTX You utilised user funds. That's a crime on its own That aside how the hell can a mislabeling lead to not only playing with user funds but doing so with 1.7x leverage? How could you go in front of Congress and say all these things about user funds and transparency? Unforgivable

I hope you guys realize that upgrading contracts to rug an attacker also means you can upgrade contracts to rug the user. Upgradable contracts means trusting a multisig. Which is fine ofc, so long as that is made clear to the user.

Stop using the term "unhosted" wallet. We already have a term for that. It's called a wallet. For hosted wallets we actually have a term. It's called a CEX - Centralized Exchange account. What's next? Calling cars: land ships?
