- graph theory to optimize propagation of proofs in a computationally-limited environment (decentralized network)
- pow is currently the only way to have a meaningful global consensus where adversarial actors can trust each others. even zk doesnt provide such benefit since it always unrolls down to the nothing-at-stake problem
- pos can not scale the same way pow can since former is self-referential
- unclear if pos can even survive conflicts such as wars or severe infrastructure failures
- pow supply decentralization is in itself an incredible achievement. bitcoin is wasting its potential pretending to be gold, but kadena devs took the difficult wise decision to have a significant amount of (100y) inflation. this might sound unhelpful from an investor pov, but eventually all currencies are reputation systems which can tolerate a limited amount of errors
- pact still has a long way to go but its potential is greater than other smart-contract languages. its a lisp which helps the development of tools such as ai code generation, theorem provers, etc. safety and features of contracts is much more clear and contained (although still not perfect, cf module guards and ref event). its a cute language to have fun with math
- only general not full of bots, shills and npcs (unfortunately still need to cleanup the perverts)
- among other things

t-thats it im out
too much toxicity, not as inclusive and warm as it used to be, threads are not much comfy anymore, tiresome pastas and memes, and literally everybody hates me
