Nitrousoxide posted:There's also the issue that if you do a 51% attack on a proof of stake coin than you will obliterate the value the coin has. No one will be willing to trade that coin for real world cash because the attacker could reverse any transaction, double spend coins, and do anything they feel like. It makes the billions of dollars you have to invest in getting that 51% stake vanish in an instant. And unlike a proof-of-work coin, where you could turn those video cards over to mine a different coin, your now worthless coin can't be used for anything. i thought this was supposed to be completely trustless???? was i wrong?

infernal machines posted:it depends on the implementation but generally the assets are hosted elsewhere, the data on the chain is just a json reference to the external host yeah, the part im confused about is the jpegs being in the wallet. you don't transfer the contents of wallets. i assume they meant the jpegs would be on the chain

Chris Knight posted:holy gently caress it came true so as we are all aware crypto is so very trustless but is there any possibility of connecting your wallet to twitter leading to hilarious outcomes?

I was wondering this with the twitter NFT avatars, since you have to connect your wallet to twitter. what is the mechanism that connection happens? Are you having to trust twitter won't steal your wallet? Could they or somebody else steal your nfts through it? I'm sure the answer will be yes, but just wanting confirmation. e: as far as i know a bitcoin wallet is just a private key, and if you're giving your private key to twitter then....

had the misfortune to get into it with some little crypto freak and he came so close to having a realization. he perfectly describes git without knowing it.quote:Imagine if you had a Git repo that everyone could access and everyone could push commits to and hundreds of thousands of systems around the world all independently validated that every single commit was legit and that the chain as a whole was valid and that the whole timeline going back to inception was replayable commit to commit all the way till now. Now add in that it is redundantly stored in tens of thousands of places and would take shutting down all of them to disable it. That’s an immutable blockchain.

just found out the guy who started homebrew got big into crypto and is doing a web3 version of that where I guess open source developers get paid in krugerands that are worth money… somehow. I read into a bit and it sounds like you’re just granted tea coins from whole cloth the more your package is used or the more other packages depend on yours etc. these don’t apparently come from users putting money into the system. I’m sure somebody somewhere will buy these coins from the developers though because https://tea.xyz

Paladinus posted:Had argument today about NFTs. I basically just kept repeating 'why do you need NFTs for that?', and the only thing the other guy managed to produce was that game companies could save a lot of money on not storing in-game items on their servers. See, you don't even have to pay Oracle or hire a data base developer, you just put everything on blockchain and users pay for each transactions, and it works. So simple. That's saving like tens of cents on S3 I'm sure.

Pigbuster posted:I've seen so many of these that it's just hit me how absurd it is that simply entering your wallet into a website is enough for them to steal everything inside it. I don't have to worry about my bank's account/routing number floating around because without my actual credentials all anyone can do with those is send me money. Do crypto wallets not have that same kind of system or are people genuinely just giving random websites their entire bank credentials just to potentially own a picture of a goblin It's people "connecting" their meta mask wallet by entering their credentials or whatever into the scam site.
