Oceans of Wisdom

white paper is like 12 pages or something?

it is short, simple and all works together

BTC is an amazing thing of beauty

bc in the end everything links to everything else


and it is a bit like this

so unfortunately someone asks me a question

so we can think clearly about the remaining ones

to reduce the number of degrees of freedom we are trying to consider at the same time

even if automated/centralized

and start locking and automating some

and given this, I want to get going

so there is a whole series of cascading decisions, all of which more or less need to be made correctly

so it can be efficiently verified

and present the current hodlers which should be, I think, i ZKP

so you need someone who can index (presumably a market, for payment)

answer: you are not

are you going to force this on each node?

well you need to have a high speed indexing of this large fungible coin

e.g. let's say you wanted to have a wave that is "all ETH $PEPE hodlers"

you need arbitrary data

if you want to make a broad set of decisions

we need indexers

maybe?

ZKP and public?

do we have two types of waves?

it seems more appropriate to be public I think

should the main stage be ZKP or public?

however, it weakens in principle the reputation effects that that rep is there to help with

this seems like a big benefit for a global protocol

because they had "wrong views" because they won't know it was our Spanish friends

if we ever become important, an annoying digital regulator can't go arrest our Spanish friends or whatever

this has some interesting benefits in censorship resistance

without revealing who you are

and actually vote in a wave

and that you have TDH to vote in a wave

you could, in principle. prove that you belong to a wave

for waves

this becomes super interesting

ZKP can be used to greatly enhance privacy

I think 80% we will need a token for gas for the normal reason you need gas and to reward the validators for the normal reason you need this. however if it is a native token, do we bridge to ETH, do we build that native into protocol or not?

how you use TDH to prevent "block production centralization"

need to check performance requirements, how you round robin

it is, in principle, better

and others just check the proof

but with ZKP you can actually just have one node at any time create the proof

the consensus mechanism: you can do VRF with validation by all nodes

that is it

max is probably: The Memes, Gradients, NextGen and Stream and the min is The Memes and Gradients and we treat NextGen and Stream as shadow

another reason to not have a lot of collections that are protocol collections
