    You do not understand Ethereum.

    Posted: 28 Apr 2020 05:37 PM PDT

    You do not understand Ethereum. You think you do? So, tell me, what is the first thing you say when someone asks you what Ethereum is? A blockchain with smart contracts? DApps? DeFi? Then you do not understand Ethereum. There is one, and only one, valid answer to this question. Ethereum is the first decentralized currency in the world. Period.

    "But the first was Bitcoin..."

    No. It is not. And it is a widespread overly damaging myth that Bitcoin is decentralized. And I'm not talking about mining centralization or similar (equally stupid) complaints. I'm talking about the objective fact that Bitcoin is not a complete solution to the purely technical problem of implementing a decentralized currency. This is absolutely obvious, yet it seems like everyone ignores this blatant, inconvenient true. You don't agree?

    So, please, answer this very simple question: if Bitcoin is decentralized, how do I leave an inheritance for my children without involving a third party? As in, if I don't login for 2 months, I want my money to be transferred for my kids. Please, tell me, how do I do it? Answer is: I can't. There is no way to do so without sending my coins or giving my key for someone else to perform the transaction when I'm dead. How can a currency be decentralized when you can't do something as simple as inheriting your fortune without trusting a third party? It can't. I do not understand how so many ignore this glaringly obvious fact.

    Isn't that enough? So, please, tell me how do I gamble with my Bitcoin money without sending it to a centralized manager which I must trust? I can't. It is impossible. How do I trade my Bitcoin for other digital assets without giving my coins to a centralized exchange? I can't. It is impossible. How do I literally buy anything with Bitcoin that doesn't require trusting someone? Please, answer this question: name one, just one, product that I can buy with Bitcoin that I'm 100% guaranteed to receive. You can't, because in every single purchase you make with Bitcoin, there is a non-zero risk that you'll be scammed if the seller doesn't send the purchased good. There is literally nothing you can buy with Bitcoin that doesn't involve trust.

    So, how can a currency that I can't inherit without trusting a third party, that I can't gamble without trusting a third party, that I can't exchange without trusting a third party, that there isn't even a single good I can buy without trusting a third party, be considered a decentralized form of money? It can't, and calling so is a stretch. As clever as Satoshi was, from a purely technical point of view, Bitcoin is an incomplete solution to the technical problem of constructing a purely digital form of money because every single transaction demands implicit trust that the other party will deliver the promised goods.

    Ethereum is, thus, quite literally, the first actual solution to the problem proposed by Satoshi. Ether was the first form of money which can be used to buy digital goods with no trust involved at all. You can exchange your Ether for domains, no humans involved. You can exchange your Ether for cards in Gods Unchained, no trust involved. You can gamble with your Ether, no trust involved. You can easily leave an inheritance for your kids without needing to trust any human at all. With Ethereum, we can finally execute all sorts of transactions with a purely digital money, in such a way that the purchased goods are guaranteed to arrive. And let me be very clear, it is the first project in the world that actually accomplished that.

    Note I'm not hating on Bitcoin. Quite the opposite, I absolutely adore the project and think it will be forever valuable as a collector asset, sort of like a semi-decentralized digital gold. But when it comes to solving the actual problem of constructing a decentralized, purely digital form of money, Bitcoin isn't a solution, in a very cold, technical sense. Please, stop spreading that Bitcoin is digital money, because it isn't. Stop spreading that it solves the problem, because it didn't. It was, like its predecessors, a partial solution and a huge step forward, but the first complete solution to the problem of constructing a purely digital money was Ethereum. And that is what it is.

    Can Anyone Tell Me Why my Ethereum Transfer is Still Pending and at a Five-Hours-Greater Expected Time than it was Last Night???

    Can Anyone Tell Me Why my Ethereum Transfer is Still Pending and at a Five-Hours-Greater Expected Time than it was Last Night???

    Both accounts involved are my own. I don't know if there's any way to fix this or cancel the Transfer. Will it eventually solve itself? what's wrong here? I've sent ether at 1 gwei per unit before, and those were only ten minutes. This is very frustrating and confusing.

    Etherscan Transaction Hash Info Page; Screenshot was Taken Earlier Today.

    ![img](bhe864ltxlv41 "A Screenshot of my Ledger Live Page for My Receiving Account. (The Amount of Ether Says Zero on Both Etherscan and Metamask. Ledger Had the Ether Amount at Zero Before I Started the Transfer (Apr 27). Previously, Only Tokens were Held By This Account. (Therefore,) The Chronological Graphic Chart is Inaccurate. There is also No Log for the Recipient Part of this Transaction, Which Should be Below The Chart.")

    This is the Page for the Sending Address. The Chart Here is Correct, and the Sending Part of the Transaction (Viewable in this Picture if Enlarged) is Properly Listed Below the Chart.

    Announcing SmokeSignal v0.9.2: topics, replies, and more! No censorship, no moderation, no usernames. Just free speech with lots and lots of burned crypto.

    Posted: 28 Apr 2020 08:40 AM PDT

    Hey all, we're happy to announce some exciting new features on SmokeSignal! Our launch post gives a good overview of the project, but here's a quick summary:

    SmokeSignal is a platform that guarantees 100% uncontrolled and uncensored communication and coordination.

    Perhaps this lockdown is going on longer than you are comfortable with, and you'd like to start coordinating ways of fighting enforcement thereof. You could start this discussion on SmokeSignal, while keeping your identity private.

    Or maybe your local government is censoring a particular piece of information ruthlessly, and you want to put it somewhere that's both immediately public and impossible to delete.

    All of the above can be facilitated by SmokeSignal, so long as you have ETH, DAI, a web3 browser, and an Internet connection.

    Actually, that quote is a condensed version a SmokeSignal message, which can never be deleted or censored, no matter how offensive it gets or who you piss off.

    New Features

    I talk more about these features in this SmokeSignal post; come say hi! But here are the major points:

    • The most exciting new feature is topics! There are already a few topics started, and anyone can start any other topic! Think of them as subreddits, but without firm boundaries or rules--there aren't any owners or moderators of topics (and thus, no censorship. Anyone remember r/bitcoin?)
    • We also have replies! Combined with topics, this allows SmokeSignal to be used much like Reddit: Users post and browse certain topics, then can reply in a nested fashion to these posts.
    • A visual design is done, making the whole thing look wayyyyy better, and smoothing some UX out. We also have a much more friendly front page.
    • When composing a post you now see a preview, so you can be sure your immutable post looks slick before burning it permanently into the Ethereum blockchain.
    • Mobile browsers are now supported! Any mobile device can now browse SmokeSignal, and mobile web3 browsers like Trust Wallet can compose and publish posts and replies.
