Crypto Exchanges Delist Litecoin Over Privacy Feature Concerns Two major exchanges in South Korea said they will delist Litecoin due to new privacy features enabled by the protocol. https://decrypt.co/102350/crypto-exchanges-delist-litecoin-privacy-feature-… Maybe better news . . . Edge, the company behind the Edge cryptocurrency wallet, announced today the launch of a new "Confidential Mastercard" that requires no personal identifiable information to use. "Not a name, not a phone number, not an email address," Edge co-founder and CEO Paul Puey told Decrypt in an interview. "Definitely not your actual address, nothing. You can create a virtual card in around 15 seconds inside of Edge." Caveat Lecter ( Anthony Hopkins is buying up NFT's )

ON Israel

Israel the illegal colony, not Israel the Assange BFF who is one of the most active NAZI propagandists around. On Israel the state I suggest it be abolished last as we eliminate the nation-state form. This recognizes the unique horror of the Holocaust and saves us being accused of adding to historic persecutions. I'm very confident of enlisting strong AI help in this and forming a majority consensus position in the world revolution. I hope you'll join our winning team. Viva la revolution!

Fastest Supercomputer to Ever Exist Breaks the 'Exascale' Barrier https://share.newsbreak.com/18sflfrw "For the first time, a supercomputer has officially broken the exaflop ceiling and become the most powerful computer to ever exist. " "The Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory was able to demonstrate performance of more than 10^18 operations per second on a standard test called the TOP500 that ranks the 500 most powerful commercially available computer systems, according to the organization."

Imho the operating systems we use aren't adequate. No single user is 100% accountable for what he/she does on the network. I'm not an expert in this field at all, but I thought about this quite a lot figuring things out. Here it goes: Suppose you implement a blockchain for identities as early in the boot process as possible, then you find the public key of every user in the blockchain and can communicate with every user while that user knows you are connected to him/her. Now you have a blockchain and can connect to virtually anyone. But the operating system is still vulnerable to hijacking and you should verify correctness somehow. Suppose, I'm really not sure if this effectively works, you implement a hashing function as early as possible in the compiler, then you can hash the code of the compiler and verify if the compiler's code changed. Then up to the operating system which you compile with that compiler and hash the code in its development stages. Now you're able to connect other users in the network and compare hashes of comparable computer systems. Maybe there are better alternatives. What happens in memory is a black box to me, somehow I like to hash and compare that too, and I understand that our computers become quite a lot slower. Privacy issues do arise with this system, but it's nothing more than in real life where you meet someone and say 'Hi, I'm ...', politeness, naivety, in this world now where the internet is totally different, not moral indeed. And also, the internet is free, with such a system an internet with different speeds might be more easily made as every user is known within a certain time span. I'm currently working on a blockchain of identities ( https://github.com/nvrrdt/onzecurrency) and I'd like to continue developing this, so I hope the concept has a chance to succeed in its endeavor.
