Though Adam Moserri, the design thinker and head of Instagram thinks of tokens as equity or shares, the ideas he shared posted on Ted Talk last month confirm what blockchain and crypto advocates have been saying for years. He talks about cryptocurrency, social tokens, NFTS, DAO, and smart contracts. He describes them as a group of ideas known in the industry as Web 3. He acknowledges that every one of these is built on a foundation called a blockchain. Through this technology, he dreams of a world where the original promise of the Internet is realized and power is pushed away from the establishment to what he describes as "creators," individuals whose personality is their brand. He concluded his talk with this inspiring statement:

I salute him for recognizing technology and what it can do. I also love that he is aware of the web 3 effect.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, I am also impressed. It is a misconception on the part of Web 3 people that those in Web 2 are not aware of the power of Web 3.
I think time will come and more will get to know or learn about it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, and we will be glad to witness a massive exodus from Web 2 to Web 3 as an outcome of such widespread realization. 🤩
This is certainly the case. People do not realize how big this is going to become. We are looking at quadrillions in value being captured and monetized. That is the key. It is already out there but not monetized.
Cryptocurrency changes that.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Wow! I could not comprehend such a huge amount of wealth. I wonder how many billionaires and millionaires will be created once all these things started to roll out.
Even more importantly, how many people making a few hundred grand will come from this? That is the key. Uplifting all of humanity. The biggest impact always comes from the bottom.
You are writing about the Eurodollar system. Just consider what is in there. There are trillions of dollars of trilateral loans through Repo. We have no idea of the bilateral but my guess is tens of trillions. And that is just daily activity.
What the total value of that? We know there are at least $750 trillion in derivatives alone. Add in FX reserve, cross border payment liabilities, international debt securities, and OTC FX transmissions and what do you get?
A shit ton of money in all it various forms.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I seem to take this for granted, but I think you're right. What matters is not the "big thing." For many, just making thousands or hundreds of USD from crypto is already big.
"Tens of trillions," just for daily activity? That's really beyond comprehension for a new reader of the Eurodollar market. However, somehow this gives us a reference for the amount of wealth that can be created in the crypto space.
The Repo market is $3-$4T per day. That is what the custodian (Bank of NY Mellon) and the primary dealers report.
What happens with the bilateral agreements? We honestly can only guess. There is no way to track an overnight agreement between a bank in Cyprus and one in the UAE.
What we do know is there is a collateral shortage and pristine collateral is US Treasuries. There is about $@0 trillion of those out there and there is a shortage.
So how much is being done each day? We can only guess.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We seriously have to pull the power away from the major technology companies. Facebook and Instagram are poisons in the process.
This is why what we are building on Hive is so vital. We simply need more projects to roll out.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Just curious. The guy is working for Instagram, but his vision looks like he is in favor of such a power shift from institutions like Facebook and Instagram to individuals.
Yes but he did mentioned how it was going to put them in a stronger position and still be used. He cannot see a day without them.
The part where he talked about people tokenizing their followers and then being able to access them on YouTube or Instagram sounds like he still sees them as a primary part of the future.
That is my read anyway.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, I remember that part.
Interesting how he feels that the traffic will still be on the Facebook family of apps. An insider bias? Maybe.
We are seeing a lot more options forming. To truly be worthwhile, we need to pull the power away from those entities by diminishing the number of users.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is just a matter of time. I think I saw you posting about Facebook's market price suffering a huge decline. A month ago, I saw in the news that they blame TikTok for a similar drop in price. I am tempted to think that perhaps people are beginning to realize the real character of Web 2.0 and are now shifting their interest to anything they heard about Web 3.0 whether for real or not.
LUNA is falling, Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) is rising, anyone know why?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have no clue :) Haven't checked any charts lately.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The SEC started an investigation, I don't know if it had anything to do with it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hmmm, that's interesting.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We may soon find out what happened on the Terra side.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hard to draw conclusions based upon short term moves.
Give it some time to see how things pan out.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I totally agree with you but it's weird that LUNC goes up, LUNA goes down. Otherwise LUNA will fall today and rise tomorrow. This is normal.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hive and Steem proved that new forks can exceed the original one.
ETH and ETHC actually did that too when you think about it.
So we will have to see if that holds true for the Terra chains.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I hope they are successful. I really want this. We'll wait and see.

Once I figure out how to connect to HiveSQL, then I need to figure out which tables have the info I need to create the queries which can answer questions we care about such as these:
It's not difficult to make the queries once the HiveSQL syntax is understood, but sometimes the info isn't where we think it is; or we get the logic wrong in forming the query.
Until I can get these questions and figured out, I'll keep putting up the screen captures.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Actually HAF might help you with that. It is something that, from what I understand, is going to make database creation much easier.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Good luck with finding out, for me I still have to connect to HiveSQL, let's see if I can do it

What's your take on @hiveio's recent announcement about partnership with Footprint Analytics and holding together this competition? Anyone thinking to participate?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Always good to see outreach projects.
But we need to get the foundation in place and expand what is here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am more curious about the analytics aspect of this partnership. But of course, it will take time to learn about this new field.
World Bank President David Malpass is now selling the global recession and stagflation narrative to introduce his ideas of reform "in fiscal, monetary, climate and debt policy." Again, the usual excuses, capital misallocation and global inequality. Very innovative indeed!

Not surprising. They keep operating under the same delusion which is actually making the problem worse.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
New York made HBD illegal.
No surprise. The regulators are going to use the UST situation for maximum gain.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Why do they even need to put regulations on crypto in the first place.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Politicians love power.
Have you ever seen anything they didnt put regulation upon?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's True.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
They are doing their job, putting their hands on everything they can, lol!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If we use stablecoins as a stepping stone to buy other altcoins, we just do likewise with HBD: use HBD to buy a SWAP-coin before we withdraw.
Source: Tenor.com (via D.Buzz)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Certainly, there are a lot of uses for HBD. We need to keep expanding the use cases for it.
We really need to push value towards both coins.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I was just addressing the supposed illegality of HBD in New York State. As long as the governor doesn't sign the legislation into law, then it has no force of law.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I didnt look into it deeply. It might be FINRA.
Either way, it doesnt matter, there is no way to get HBD under regulation.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If there's one thing I've learned since 2008, it's that laws once meant only for "certain situations" eventually end up being used in "all" situations. This came to pass with the more questionable provisions of USA PATRIOT Act and the income tax amendment to the US Constitution which was meant "only" for those who "qualified" until that came to mean the effectively "everyone" qualified. Even Social Security Numbers-- once meant to be used only for Social Security purposes-- ended up being used as de facto ID numbers throughout society.
I want to believe that cryptocurrency and specifically HBD are beyond reach of government regulation, but a government hellbent on extracting its pound of flesh will get its pound of flesh one way or another. Even if the effort ends up a failure, it has the means to make life a living hell for the population living under its jurisdiction.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
They simply adjust the numbers to encompass more people. It is really that simple.
Few realize the income tax act was only meant to be "for the rich". This is why those who support the "tax on unrealized gains" are total assholes. They claim well it is good to tax the rich. Even if that were the case, in 20 years it will be a tax on everyone.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Which in the grand scheme of things, means absolutely nothing.
We will continue to exist outside their jurisdiction whether NY likes it or not.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It will be quite hard for them I think. People will always find ways to go around it hehe
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I believe it gets magnified when you have developers involved.
Whatever they set down, we can code around. It is why, I feel, they havent had much success against megatech. Whatever regulations they draw up, code is changed to be exempt.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is the key to decentralization.
There is nothing they can do to HBD. It is simply out of their reach.
It is the lesson from the Eurodollar system. The Fed, USG, nor NY State can do nothing about it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
One bad coin is putting good coins at risk
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am not sure about risk but it is making life more expensive for the likes of Circle.
Regulation costs money it is why most of the compliance is by larger firms; they have the people and infrastructure in place to handle it.

We need to march towards 10K.
Someone mentioned that 10K and beating Khal will result in 250 LEO.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What exactly is the offer and where do you check the stat(number of comments), is there any tool that keeps track of the number of comments by the different individual?
https://hivelayers-stats.herokuapp.com/
Enter your name in where it says AMR008 and then wait for it to load.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks a lot. I just have one more doubt. After I checked this tool, I found that it is displaying the old data, I mean 2021. I tried to select 2022, but it does not have any option. You can see there is no option to check after July 2021. Does it display the real-time data or at least with a lag of one day or two days?? Or maybe something I am missing. Please educate me on this. I appreciate your time.
Yeah only the last 30 days work. The tool is not updated and there are some bugs.
So you can only use it for the most recent posting.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Khal's offer on the recent AMA was, 250LEO to anyone who beats him on Asher's report (Leo Engagement League) IF we hit 10k comments.
You can track your individual comment stats HERE. Just change the Hive username into yours.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Let's go! The LEL might end Friday morning. We got a few hours, lol!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am confused.
What is the offer?
We are trying to get 10K during the Leo.stats time period. We started this on Monday.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I know it counts from Saturday.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, that's the LEL (by abh12345). TM is thinking about a different stat (leo.stats)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
How can we follow this?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
@abh12345 report out for Leo Engagement league on Friday.
@leo.stats report out on Mondays.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You can check the last LEL report from Asher. I am seeing the post was published 6 days ago.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
He mentioned 10k on Asher's stats which means the LeoFinance Engagement League
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Well considering that we werent aiming for it when that kicked off, it isnt much of an offer.
We started the 10K push on Monday.
The window for Asher's accounting is already closed.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah, I am hoping we'd hit it. But then the interface is now playing a little glitchy again.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have a feeling that Khal will roll it over to next week.
And we should be able to hit it easily on Asher's report.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm on leo mobile.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
If this is missed, next one would begin.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
The stats would tell
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
Leo.stats update was Mon, LEL is today.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
I thought it started after the LEL report was published.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes we have around 4-5 hours..around 250 minutes.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Anyone know what the score is now?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have no idea how to get them, lol! I wonder how Asher pulls the data.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
He pulls it through the SQL Server
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes that's true
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think it might be necessary to focus on next week.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes. I hope he extends the rewards hehe. I heard him say "this week... it comes Friday morning"
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Just keep pushing till revelation time.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
It ends at 8 Eastern Time.
So it is over.
We are now posting for next week on his counting.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ohh then we have to wait for asher to see where we stand.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Considering we didnt have a concentrated effort until early this week, it means we will not likely get there.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Let's see if I can code something for next week so that we can keep track of it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, we didn't plan earlier, the room is set for the upcoming week.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
Exactly… and we missed days of things not working too.
Today isn’t going well either.
I don’t see half of this post. And not even sure my comments go though ?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh so it's over then. I was thinking PST.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
So the counting is stopped for this week?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, if it is EST then we are already on the new week :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's totally true, I'd be expecting Asher's post about 7 hours from now
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
Where's our report sheet...
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
Oh, boy, I'm late.
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
Haha, it's okay. At least you're here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah, it always counts.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
So is this finished, and look CJ I made it here, all by myself;)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It can never be finished Tito Ed and welcome to the market, lol!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thank you CJ, the never ending story or as Eli would say another segment of the After Eights saga!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, she's right :) It goes on and on
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You are telling me!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, I've heard that too. But I don't know if the news is true.
Everyone says ask @ifarmgirl :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Well it's true. Heard it from Khal's mouth on the AMA replay, lol! It's on timestamp 1:38:50
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is good news :) I need help with my wallet.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm not sure though if the offer carries next week. He specifically mentioned this week.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If we don't hit 10K this week, it could be valid next week. But according to the data of leo.stats, I think we will reach 10K by Monday.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's awesome then. At least we'd get it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We will ask Asher to push the report by 1 day, LOL
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hahaha, even if he delays the posting, he will still follow the previous :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Wow, record timing..
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Is that someone Khal?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't know, but I think 10k is inevitable, this week or next.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Well I started it with the idea of hitting it on Leo.stats.
Khal seems to put it on the Leo Engagement League.
Perhaps he will carry it over for this week that we just entered.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It will eventually happen. If not in this time's LEL, it will be the coming week.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's absolutely true
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes it is, and then it will constantly increase from now on.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That sounds very interesting and catchy to make happen.

We shouldn't buy anything with borrowed money. Not only does borrowed money need to be repaid, it needs to be repaid with interest.
Whatever we buy, we should buy with money we can afford to lose (never buy with rent money, milk money, etc.)

Sure he is right. But it is stating the obvious.
Of course, people who buy with money they cant afford to lose do not belong investing. But sorry, there is no excuse fo that. They need to learn the hard way.

Some people have to learn the hard way if they are to learn at all. We still need to provide the warning if only to say, "They were warned, so they can't say they didn't know."

Yes they do.

Absolutely. First time I saw that kind of warning was in Autumn of 2017 during the bull run.

Neal Stephenson, the “father” of Metaverse should have thanked first the policymakers instead of the gaming sector for their lockdown policy. Though not part of their original intention, this made P2E to be a global trend as a result of such a policy. Moreover, the guy is “too cutting edge” for launching LAMINA1, a metaverse-focused blockchain project.

I am watching the price action of Lumber as an indication of where the economy is going. A really scary chart.

It is could be telling us about the construction industry.

$HIVE pushing back towards 50 cents.
Bitcoin is dropping too.
Some are calling for Bitcoin under $20K.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hmmm, wonder if BTC would really go there...
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It could go there, but Bitcoin never does what it is expected of it. All those pushing to 20 K aren't that different than the moonboys who were expecting 100 K last year.

No forecasting is near impossible. That is why traders have stop-losses in place, because moves are not always how they expect.
That said, we know what the overall macro environment is like. How much a role does that play in the markets is what is really unknown.
To me, BTC and crypto will follow equities. If they get crushed, we are still in a risk off environment.

Disney appears to be following the path of Facebook and Netflix.
They are in the midst of a shake up. Their streaming service is loosing a boatload of money. They are being crushed by ESPN.

Here is someone who is thinking how to use HBD rewards for Splinterlands. This is all good for developing use cases.
Even though it requires exchanging to $HIVE, it is a great way to put some buy support of that token also.
We need all different approaches.

Hehe, you keep forgetting them? The good thing is you can always claim them again.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I didn't forget.
I had problems signing in to the coingecko app stuff and how to go about the claim and maybe been a bit shy to ask for further help with it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh, you should just ask :) No one will bite you hehe.
If you are having problem with the app, maybe go to the web version on your browser.
Here is the address: https://www.coingecko.com/

The wildfire here in Southern Spain, Pujerra, along the costa del Sol is declared just now under control.
For those that know about it, here some updates.
Now they are flying on and off with planes and helicopters to extinguish it further… almost 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Such a heroes in these extreme heats of over 30 degrees Celsius.
No news on affected houses yet, but about 3.500 hectare of forests was lost.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Glad to know it is under control and hope it won't spread further and no casualties or affected houses. Just sad for the lost forests

You are welcome 🙂

Wildfires in Mediterranean can be quite destructive and deadly. Like in 2007 Greece.
You can never spend too much on fire prevention.
I understand…
We so need to be careful especially now it’s so dry and we hardly had rain in the winter.
We haven’t heard yet if this one was of natural origins or lid like last years big fire.
Some people are just idiots… they have no idea they play with lives.

Thanks @taskmaster4450le
Just now new pockets of fire started opposite the mountain on another ridge…
I hear new planes are going up.
Had hoped this wouldn’t happen. But the wind is wrong and all is so dry here. We had hardly rain in the winter. Fire does jump…

Inflation hit another high. I am not sure why people were surprised. The last read saw a decline in the price of fuel as compared to the month before. This was not the case in May.
Have no fear. The talking points will be radically different by the end of the year. We are going to see a massive shift and those who think inflation is bad, wait until you get a massive dose of deflation.
People are going to lose a ton of money.

The surprise would have been if there was not a record high for inflation.
Talking about fuel, in the UK this week, the cost to fill the average car just hit a £100!

Yes and only going to get worse as Russian oil goes offline. From what I understand, the fields in the East only operated due to Western companies in there. They all left meaning those will be useless since they are in permafrost. Once they stop pumping, they are done.
A rough state of affairs.

More bullshit from the young jackasses schooled in stupidity.
Crypto has a gender diversity problem? Really it is open source. Anyone can build, buy, or get involved.
That is like saying crypto has an age problem because there is hardly anyone from the silent generation involved.

How can there be a gender diversity problem in crypto haha that cracks me up.

A stronger USD is bad for the world. Not surprising the Dixie (DXY) is up following the inflation news. Keep in mind it is weighed heavily towards the EURO but it does give a feel for what is going on.
This is not good for nations using other currencies.

DAOs are becoming some serious business. I am glad Hive has one and it is operating since the day we forked.
This could be 20x a year from now.

Janet Yellon is a dumbshit.
That said, she isn't wrong. But then I could make a case that Netflix is a very risky option for retirement savings.
