@BTCWALK. Nice story. Every year there is always a new who is Satoshi Nakamoto story. This might be one of the very best because it has Pablo Escobar and a possibility that Satoshi loved cocaine hehehehe. I am saving my merits, however. Thank you. Share another one next year hehe.

This appears to be a DAO 2.0. A smart contract that is functioning as it was programmed to be, however, coded with a loophole where someone can use to cheat the program. However, is it cheating if it is functioning in the purpose it was programmed to? The question of the DAO.  Robert Leshner, founder of CompoundAn exploit on Compound is allowing users to leverage their initial capital multifold, creating more Compound DAI than real DAI, and a situation that some are terming impossible.
This is not a security lapse or bug in the Compound protocol, but a sneaky loophole that makes borrowing against borrowed collateral possible.
DeversiFi COO Daniel Yanev noted on a tweet Friday that on-chain DAI was just 108 million, compared to Compound DAI that’s more than 3x the value:
Thread commentator @degenspartan explained the situation arises as a user immediately deposits the DAI they borrow “which becomes collateral so [they] can borrow more DAI,” which in turn, can be further pooled to gain collateral on.Source https://cryptoslate.com/this-compound-exploit-allows-users-to-4x-their-initial-capital-using-their-borrowed-amounts/ |

On a side note, this part of news is quite controversial The other two judges agreed with Haynes, and the court noted that unlike cellphone data, bitcoin transactions are not “an intimate window into a person’s life.” The panel also highlighted that cryptocurrency transaction data was not a “pervasive or insistent part of daily life.” Of course, even though the case is controversial, bitcoiners are unsure of how the case will affect other U.S. lawsuits going forward.
Image if you're doing something that could be controversial such as donation to non-profit organization. People would criticize or even terror you if you're forced to give up your bitcoin "data" and government publicize analysis result of the data. don't use your coinbase account to participate in controversial (or certainly illegal) activities---that's the long and short of it. coinbase and other exchanges are essentially banks. that was actually part of the basis for this ruling. the 4th amendment does not protect banking records. this ruling doesn't apply to your personal bitcoin transactions, and unless the government has cause to bring litigation against you (for example, the nonprofits you are donating to are classified as terrorist organizations) facts like that wouldn't come out in open court anyway. Also, with or without a 4th amendment, when the government knocks on their doors and pressures them to comply or else a takedown, I reckon it always ends in compliance that sacrifices some of its customers to save the business. In chess it is known as the gambit hehehe. |

I would never ever bet against Trump on any election. Dude shouldn't even be the president right now, he has absolutely no qualifications that makes him a good president but he gave a great lesson to American public by becoming president, that you can be anything you want as long as you are willing to get dirty and have powerful connections.
Plus, we now know that America is not really ruled by the president but more like senate, if the senate doesn't want president do to something they can stop him, who can stop the senate? Not really much.
There was even impeachment where congress found Trump guilty, that is their job to see if he is really guilty or not and when the impeachment was on senate it was already decided that he was guilty. What happened? Senate decided not to do anything about it and not give him a punishment. I hate trump as much as the next guy but I wouldn't put money on him losing between all of this horrible things he is capable of doing.
It appears that you are not familiar with government and the division of power. All government power was never on the president. All power is divided to the executive, legislative and the judiciary branches. A president is not a dictator. In any case, the official campaign has not begun. The Democrats should be careful that Biden does not climax early hehehehe. This might give Trump time to improve on the polls and win again. @STT. The electoral college is not a group of random people. It is an electoral body established by the constitution. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College |

It appears that the regulators of 3rd world countries are also learning of the ponzi scheme scam dapps running on Ethereum hehe. Also, the question I asked also remains unanswered. Would Ethereum be considered to have more utility than bitcoin if much of the activity on Ethereum is on a speculative ponzi scheme smart contract? A gas-guzzling Ethereum dapp that accounts for 25% of activity on Ethereum network has been denounced as a potential Ponzi scheme by the Philippines Securities and Exchange Commision.
An announcement from its SEC on June 30 advised users of the dapp in question, Forsage, to stop using it immediately, and demanded that the owner officially register with the commission.
Forsage describes itself as a “fully decentralized matrix marketing project,” and, “the most thought-out marketing of this type.” However, it features many of the typical hallmarks of a multi-level marketing scheme.Source https://decrypt.co/34640/philippines-sec-just-denounced-the-top-ethereum-dapp-as-a-ponzi |

There is a lesson here for criminals hehehe. Never use Coinbase or any exchange or any bitcoin centralized service to make payments directly to a child pornography website. Are you stupid?  According to the ruling of a three-judge panel from the Fifth Circuit courts, the American government’s Fourth Amendment does not apply to bitcoin transactions used in a crime if they stem from virtual currency exchanges. Richard Gratkowski was charged with allegedly making payments to a child pornography website, and sent bitcoin (BTC) to the web portal via his Coinbase account.
Specifically, Gratkowski leveraged the 2018 Supreme Court ruling from Carpenter v. the United States. That particular case deemed cellphone data was personal and protected by Fourth Amendment protections.
However, Judge Catharina Haynes used an old Supreme Court decision from 1939 called the United States v. Miller. That particular ruling said that bank records are not protected by the Fourth Amendment. Judge Haynes ruled:
Coinbase is a financial institution, a virtual currency exchange, that provides Bitcoin users with a method for transferring bitcoin. The main difference between Coinbase and traditional banks, which were at issue in Miller, is that Coinbase deals with virtual currency while traditional banks deal with physical currency.Read in full https://news.bitcoin.com/4th-amendment-does-not-protect-bitcoin-data-us-fifth-circuit-court-rules/ |

I speculate that this might be a political move by the people behind the Trump administration. They will make a deal and make her talk about the top Democrats who might have used Jeffrey Epstein's services hehehe. Ghislaine is also a supporter of Hillary and Democrats where she has made a donation. This might be the scandal of the year and destroy Biden's campaign. While Ghislaine Maxwell’s arrest Thursday in relation to her confidant Jeffrey Epstein’s sex crimes answered some questions about her life – revealing, for example, that she hid at a sprawling, million-dollar New Hampshire estate, where she was picked up in a morning raid – still more questions arose about what’s next for the mysterious British socialite.
As she sits in custody, at the top of many minds was whether Maxwell – long accused of grooming underage victims for Epstein – will cooperate with prosecutors.Source https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jul/03/what-next-for-ghislaine-maxwell-will-she-cooperate-with-prosecutors |

Edit: Still.. Sucks with Burns out and Khabib's dad. You guys think Khabib's really gonna retire? Khabib was very close to father. I reckon it has destroyed all of his desire to fight again. However, he might also have a farewell fight and similar to the show from anger that he created after his fight versus Conor, I also speculate that Khabib might make a speech that Xi Jinping might not like hehehehehe. Also, Dana is a Trump supporter. He will approve of this storyboard hehehe. |

The market is saturated with not only stable coins, also defi stable coins! This is similar to the market's saturation with ICO tokens on 2017, I reckon and this might lead to a mass extinction of altcoins.

There isn't really anything malicious here in the article though, it doesn't categorized cryptocurrency as evil either. But it was really huge to see that a browser that blocks ads and prevent tracks are themselves putting ads and tracking users using an affiliate link. Maybe it wasn't suppose to work that way? maybe there was a bug in their code?
You should read the article. The development team of Brave placed their affiliate link to profit from their users without informing them. This is a behavior similar to scammers. |

Rest in peace father. I speculate that Khabib might retire and Conor will return hehehe. Also, another terrible news. Gilbert Burns has tested for the coronavirus. Where did this virus come from? It is destroying everything. The UFC 251 main event has been derailed by the coronavirus, as Gilbert Burns has tested positive for COVID-19 and is out of his bout with welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.
Multiple people close to the situation informed MMA Junkie on Friday night that Burns (18-3 MMA, 12-3 UFC) has been pulled from his fight with Usman (16-1 MMA, 11-0 UFC), which takes place next week in Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. The fight is expected to be rescheduled at a later date. The people requested anonymity because the UFC has yet to make an official announcement.
Burns traveled from Florida, where he trained for UFC 251, to Las Vegas. The promotion is using the city as a hub to send athletes overseas to Abu Dhabi, testing them for COVID-19 before flying out to the Middle East. Burns’ test result came back positive, as well as his brother and cornerman, Herbert Burns, and coach Greg Jones.Source https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2020/07/ufc-251-gilbert-burns-out-kamaru-usman-title-fight-coronavirus |

Is there a decreasing no. of nodes? I have not turned on my nodes for months honestly. I have the other one in my brother's office that ran the whole time that he did not know until the quarantines began hehehe.
@stoffu. He has Aeon on Windows. It might be his firewall, might need to run Aeon as an administrator or might need to disable the antivirus.

This is the type of act that causes everyone outside of this community to judge that everything in the cryptospace is a scam. This is very embarassing because it was reported by a mainstream website and a very deceiving act from a for privacy browser. Brendan Eich, founder of BraveBrave, the open-source browser designed to prioritize privacy by blocking third-party ads and trackers, is facing criticism from users for redirecting URLs from cryptocurrency companies to affiliate links that Brave profits from, Decrypt reported.
A Twitter user spotted the redirect when he typed “binance.us” into the Brave search bar, and the browser autocompleted it to “binance.us/en?ref=35089877.” Both URLs go to the same page, but the affiliate link at the end can be used to track users and generate income. Many websites, including Vox Media and The Verge, use affiliate links, but most are transparent about doing so.Read in full https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/8/21283769/brave-browser-affiliate-links-crypto-privacy-ceo-apology |

The Pomp forgot to mention that bitcoin is also a high volatility speculative asset that can multiply your investment by 10x. I reckon the persuasion might be 30 minutes shorter if he had begun with this hehehehe.  Anthony Pompliano, quote Bitcoin thought leader and influencer unquoteBitcoin influencer Anthony Pompliano, a co-founder and partner at Morgan Creek Digital, took part in the latest “Bill Bert Podcast,” hosted by stand-up comedians Bill Burr and Bert Kreischer, to “prattle about the fundamentals of currency, bank fugazi, and Bitcoin.”
By the end of Wednesday’s conversation, Burr—who was skeptical initially—concluded that the modern financial system is a Ponzi scheme run by banks and he is “getting Bitcoin” instead.
Explaining the advantages of Bitcoin, Pompliano noted that one of its most attractive features is its resistance to inflation. This was especially evident during the recent coronavirus pandemic, he added, when the Federal Reserve began printing US dollars at an unprecedented pace to create a safety cushion for the economy. All the while, the US national debt has hit a record of $25 trillion and the Fed’s balance sheet broke $6 trillion.Read in full https://decrypt.co/34443/bitcoin-anthony-pompliano-comedian-bill-burr

Kinda expected though that this fight will be rescheduled because of what is happening in US right now  . Lets just hope that at that time, a vaccine has been made although the minimum time frame for a new vaccine to be created is around 12-18 months so there is still a bit chance that a vaccine can't be created by December. Hoping to have a new virus by December although I'm not expecting . I am not optimistic about a vaccine created and released by December. Also, if there is a vaccine on December, I hope it will not be made in China hehehe. Do not be the test guinea pigs. |

@bigslimvdub. I reckon that we should consider listing on gray exchanges another chance. A good tactic might be to find gray exchanges where Monero is listed and try to have Aeon listed also hehehe. Do you want me to compile a list? The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is laying the groundwork for a possible assault on privacy-enhancing cryptocurrency technologies.
There are few investigative resources for tracing transactions” that move across these privacy-enhancing vectors, the IRS said, noting a recent spike in illicit privacy coin use. â€The CI Cyber Crimes program is working to get in front of this trend.
The IRS singled out the monero, zcash, dash, grin, komodo, verge and horizen privacy coins, sidechains Plasma and OmiseGo, and Layer 2 protocol networks Lightning, Raiden and Celer.Source https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/the-irs-wants-to-know-more-about-privacy-enhancing-crypto-coins-tools-2020-07-02 |

@pooya87. Was that issue not resolved after the users went through a KYC process? What did the users who had accounts deactivated and had a part of the millions frozen in Bittrex do? There should be a lawsuit.

It appears that Vitalik might be beginning to accustom everyone slowly on the situation before announcing of more delays. I predict an announcement this year will be mentioning no definite date for its release. Ethereum 2.0 will rely on temporary scaling measures for the next two years, says Vitalik Buterin.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said, on June 30, that the next major Ethereum upgrade will have to lean on current scaling methods for at least a couple of years, until developers finish the multi-phase project.
On Twitter, Vitalik Buterin said that ZK-rollups may become “the dominant scaling paradigm for at least a couple of years”—until the upgrade is complete.Source https://decrypt.co/34204/ethereum-2-0-will-walk-and-roll-for-two-years-before-it-can-run |

. I hope that by December, vaccine is already developed so thing will get back to normal. not just in boxing but to all other sports as well.
