Oh yes it does. You don't have to value it in dollars, but there is also such a thing like popularity or demand.

I don't think it's as straight-forward as you think. I still think I'm missing part.

Maybe, but only if the transition is obvious and without the situation being ambiguous and vulnerable to malicious abuse.
The whole "speaking in reverse" thing is cute until it involves an uninformed person. That's far more problematic than ambiguous statements.

I don't have details, but on principle it's discrimination, and very subjective and it is effectively prejudice. Laws and justice shouldn't be subjective or prejudiced to anyone.

The app used to be a thin wrapper around the website. Go to X.com . Go to browser menu and choose "Install app"/”Add to homepage". Use that as your app. I think X defines a small manifest s.t. your browser makes it look like an app.

This does not hold if there are large groups with ulterior motives involved. Then it's no longer about truth or truth being exposed. Truth will actively be rejected.

Seems to me like this is a losing proposition if ypu have to up the ante every time. What's next? Charcoal drawing? Rainbow colors markers? Fingerpaint? Spraypaint? Paper machee? Clay molding? Projector? Laser projections?

I predict that the relationship won't last for long.

@octobriana what makes you say/repost this? Did you get contacted by someone?
You can build circles for several reasons or with several kinds of expectations.

Nah, I meant: I thought we had transitioned to using key-hashes for initial commitments, but with taproot we're back to immediately exposing public keys.

Thanks. This is well explained, for exactly the area I hadn't looked into yet.

Me too. I was surprised to read Taproot exposes public keys again. Where's this debate?

Quantum computing risks are real. There has been a conference for some 10y called PQC. (It prly still exists.) The risks are in that by entangling particles, probabilities can be computed that point towards answers where otherwise in classical computing it would be a complete guess. However, it is not possible to "cheat" on every kind of math problem like this.

Quantum computing risks and Post-Quantum Computing are very much real research and engineering, with some 6 or so viable mainstream flavors.
