When Twitter finally started having ban waves of thousands of bot/duplicate accounts that would only post crypto related content, a lot of the "interaction" died down.

There's not a lot of money to be had on twitter when it comes to ROI regarding marketing or advertising on that platform. Facebook was much more lucrative but they were being hush-hush about their ponzi coin plans at the time that they were suppressing most potential competitors. Some action was had on instagram, but the real money makers would infiltrate communities that existed on discord/telegram to pump & dump on people.

The same "figureheads" still exist on Twitter that are verified, a lot of their content isn't very relevant except when they mostly tell people to just "buy bitcoin" moments after their profit has been made and are ready to accumulate at lower levels.

Quality shitpost lmao, everyone is eating this up too.

Central Banks don't even fear cryptography. It's something they want to use as well to separate and alleviate control by federal/government institutions. Banks are under heavy pressure from serious fines (into the millions) when it comes to regulations and fees they would incur from breaking a current infrastructure contract. I had a discussion with Alex, he was a Bulgarian and worked as a Risk Management executive and we had a nice chat for a few days at the bitcoin superconference. So that's about all I have to share on that specific subject.

You also have people like Blythe Masters who I mentioned previously in this thread, she was a former JPMorgan exec and went on to become CEO of Digital Asset Holdings which you can easily gather some quick information on to get an idea of what they're about.

Essentially, banks want to implement blockchain technology into the infrastructure, the technology isn't up to speed at the moment. I correlate a contributing factor being too much focus is on the coins and trading (mainly bitcoin) but basically all of them are an issue. Additionally the block size being an issue, and algorithms used. Central banks are needing hundreds of thousands of trust contracts per second to compete with the current digital banking infrastructure.

It's not going to be bitcoin that kills banking. It's the cryptography that bankers actually want to implement into their infrastructure.

Blythe Masters, former CEO of Digital Asset Holdings, said it herself, that bankers she consulted with regarding blockchain technology is what is desirable when it reaches a point where they would not incur a performance decrease when switching to a blockchain infrastructure; which is what you can see happening in fintech attempts at implementing blockchain.

An anonymous entrepreneur in the fintech field told Forbes that “they tried blockchain for a day and it was 3x slower, so we stopped”. The plan would be to “ditch the coins and the trading" according to Masters regarding central banks utilizing blockchain technology.

Do you mind expanding on this for me? Was it an accident or is there any specifics/details I could comb over that you might know about?

Interested as well, also any word on the d3's being shipped?
