1/ More on Proof-of-Stake

2/ Even more on Proof-of-Stake
You get the idea, I love to dunk on PoS. In my mind they& #39;re the modern equivalent of Perpetual Motion believers.

4/ Bitcoin Fundamentals: the Anatomy of Proof-of-Work
My conclusion: PoW is the bridge between the digital and the physical. Magic. https://bitcointechtalk.com/the-anatomy-of-proof-of-work-98c85b6f6667">https://bitcointechtalk.com/the-anato...

6/ Bitcoin Fundamentals: How Cryptography Redefines Private Property
Ok this one is more serious, and my personal favorite.
Never in history we had a form of private property that is completely independent of jurisdiction or the law. Until now. https://medium.com/@hugonguyen/how-cryptography-redefines-private-property-34cd93d86036">https://medium.com/@hugonguy...

8/ My thoughts on ASIC resistance
It& #39;s futile. ASICs are great. https://twitter.com/hugohanoi/status/1083756675159322624">https://twitter.com/hugohanoi...

9/ Contemplating on Bitcoin& #39;s transition to a fee model
It probably won& #39;t be as bad as some people think. I truly think no one knows for certain how things will unfold. The game theoretical stuff gets complicated pretty fast.

10/ The Ethereum problem
IMHO, Ethereum represents most of what& #39;s wrong with the crypto space. It embraces everything Bitcoin shuns, for the wrong reasons.
