Because they own and control their own smart contracts but do not own the network that the contracts are deployed to.

Plus, freezing funds and waiting for US law enforcement to weigh in rather than being the proverbial judge, jury and executioner is now likely to keep you on the right side of said law enforcement.

How are you guaranteeing that your private stablecoin will keep its $1 value?

How are you bootstrapping a network to validate private transactions without the promise of potential gains in coin value as its popularity takes off?

I would argue that using an older model and assuming that it is the cutting edge is basically equivalent to holding it wrong

Assuming we are measuring time and

`total = dev + review`

If dev approaches zero, but you review at the same pace as you always have, are you in a better position? Yes.

Will you potentially have a backlog of code waiting for review? Also yes.

Would you prefer to be waiting for the dev team for all of the time instead, then still have the same amount of reviewing to do at the end of it? Absolutely not.

It was originally payments owed to Dutch interests in America being converted to gold and stored locally on their behalf, as opposed to having to be transported across the Atlantic back to the Netherlands.

Then later the Dutch moved a lot more of their gold over there before/during WWII in order to keep it out of reach of the Nazis.

I dunno... people keep telling me books are good but that isn't my experience

Just like when a do a search and the results aren't relevant

Obviously this means both books and web searches are useless

I assume you could set up a "walking" journey with multiple stops as waypoints on your phone then when you press start your watch should pick it up and give you the direct route between each waypoint. Not sure if that would sufficiently provide what you were hoping for.

Following "Jordan" with "Peterson" doesn't seem random in the slightest

Note that the polymarket skill was for using it as a research source, not for placing wagers, and has since been removed as part of a larger streamlining of the included set of skills.
