Here's two bright spots tonight in our little world of bitcoin...
Bennet.org 's site is so, so good. My guess is it's the site we'll all send people to when they get coins off an exchange and into a wallet. Not overly technical, but also assumes you want to understand how bitcoin works. I don't think anyone has thread that needle as well as this guy.

I only found @Fartface2000 's site last night, but wow, I've had to recalibrate what a smart person working with a Hermes agent can do.
Even if you don't like the project, check out the design consistency. That alone is worth a tour of the site.

So what is that project? From this article...
https://medium.com/@FF2K/signal-is-the-product-why-i-built-ff2k-us-d70be43aed4f
"FF2K is a place to publish signal without asking whether the signal serves a platform’s business model.
It is a place to test voice, satire, argument, and independent distribution without begging existing systems to bless the attempt.
Its point of view is simple: dependence is dangerous, permission is fragile, and a society that outsources its information rails should not be shocked when those rails start serving someone else’s interests."
Two more gems...
"I do not trust systems that depend on humans acting against their incentives for long periods of time. That is not cynicism. It is engineering.
If a bridge only works when every person crossing it is honest, calm, and selfless, you do not have a bridge. You have a prayer with bolts in it."
