The folding part is the most important part

I want a combo washer/dryer where I can put in my dirty clothes and it'll wash, dry, and fold them without me having to do anything else.

So is this dunking on the people posting low effort memes or the people complaining about people posting low effort memes or all of us?

Yes definitely! Part of why I think things need to move past selling the technology and more towards selling the benefits. I think whenever a product has items that can be tradable (collectibles, loyalty points, financial instruments), crypto is better because you implement a standard and get markets for free.

lol I always assumed they've worked and someone has run a dispute. But never actually done it myself Is there some discussion where they're not working yet? If true, that's honestly hilarious

A bunch of zkEVMs are either just launched or hitting launch on mainnrt very soon. Not sure how production ready they are, though. The pragmatist in me says pick Polygon because I imagine they'll build tooling to bridge between roll-ups sidechain. Or get on the Base+Optimism chain and get grants CHOO CHOO

What's the security problem with Arbitrum and Optimism, besides censorship? As long as you have somebody checking fraud proofs, should have the same security as Ethereum, right? Not sure if one can selectively check just fraud proofs that interact with Farcaster contracts. If so, only check txs you care about

Disagree, but I'll give it a like for getting the conversation going

The Art of Game Design is less of a story and more of a textbook, so pretty different from Blood, Sweat, and Pixels.

You need one of the following to onboard people: 1. Banks to store fiat money and exchange for crypto 2. Peer to peer fiat to crypto swaps (ie I give you cash you send me crypto) 3. Gov supported crypto. USA just says "here's your tokens"

Gonna go old man shouts at cloud mode: why do people share screenshots of code instead of copy pasting the code? It hurts searchability, copy paste. Imagine if Stackoverflow was all screenshots. Nobody would get anything done

Feel like many financial decisions in big banks are firewalled from each other, so unless she's directly on the deal team I'm not sure she'd know either way

IMO, putting decentralization on a pedestal over functionality. If you make high cost decisions based on the read data, then it matters, but in that case you can read directly from chain or run your own indexing infra or something.

I used the Graph before to bulk resolve ENS names. I don't agree with their move to deprecate the centralized graph hosting. That sunsetting actually spurred a buddy to build Ponder, which is basically like a self-hostable Graph-compatible query service. https://github.com/0xOlias/ponder

Congrats on the launch! I've been seeing an explosion in wallet tech. What do y'all think about account abstraction and alternate wallet UIs, such as link-based wallets like Patch and Tiplink?

Good thing the SVB sign up process was so slow that we went with Mercury. I think SVB accidentally ignored us when we got into YC and Mercury signed us up next day

Whole bunch of MPC and smart wallets out there for y'all to pick from! Is the payment to cover gas so you can go and run a transaction on their behalf to register their account?

Apple for sure is gonna take a cut. Wallet apps on mobile have been hamstrung by the 30% purchase fee even for buying using ETH directly. For example, buying an NFT directly in app doesn't really exist. You have to use the apps embedded web browser.
