1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,720 Alright guys, welcome back to Bitcoin Audible. 2 00:00:04,020 --> 00:00:14,560 We have got the roundtable back and I am actually doing my first version of the intro and outro of this show on my own app, 3 00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:21,420 which I have built for my editing workflow, which I've been working on for quite a while and it has Paracore running in the background. 4 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:27,600 So I'm going to be syncing between devices and I'm actually really excited to start playing around with this 5 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,500 because I feel like it's in a place where maybe I can start showing it to other people. 6 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:32,740 I've been building, I have a problem. 7 00:00:33,100 --> 00:00:37,960 I've been building like 10 apps at once instead of one app and getting it to the finish line 8 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,420 because the unlock of Paracore and everything we're doing is literally 9 00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:46,120 in the fact that I can have all of my stuff connect together. 10 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,620 So for example, is my editing and workflow app that I'm working on right now, 11 00:00:50,620 --> 00:00:56,540 I'm looking at right now, saves a project or has a project with all of its files 12 00:00:56,540 --> 00:01:03,480 and all its recordings in a pair drive, in a pair core drive so that it saves immediately 13 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:09,600 to my pair drive app and I can immediately share it with other people like my producer 14 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:14,180 or whatever, which he's not on pair drive and I haven't created the space to join him 15 00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:15,500 and all of that stuff. 16 00:01:15,580 --> 00:01:18,800 But this is the purpose, right, is to be able to connect all of this stuff together. 17 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,800 And I'm wildly excited because of how it works and a lot of things I get to play around with. 18 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,1000 but, and we talk a little bit about this in the episode today, 19 00:01:26,1000 --> 00:01:30,220 but we have a special guest, which I am very, very excited about 20 00:01:30,220 --> 00:01:33,120 because the last time I had Max Hillebrand on the show, 21 00:01:33,260 --> 00:01:36,920 we got into so many fascinating things. 22 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,680 And we talked a lot about vibe coding. 23 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,520 They've been building so many different things 24 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,780 and white noise in particular, which I'm really interested in. 25 00:01:45,860 --> 00:01:48,360 And I know Steve wanted to ask him about a bunch of that stuff as well, 26 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,920 but we've got my brother, myself, good old simple Steve, 27 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,820 and Max Hillebrand as our guest. 28 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,520 And I'm going to be trying to get, 29 00:01:57,820 --> 00:01:59,960 reach out and get additional 30 00:01:59,960 --> 00:02:02,080 and new guests on pretty regularly, 31 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,780 at least to fill in the fourth spot, 32 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:04,580 if nothing else, 33 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:06,680 just because that was the intent of the show, 34 00:02:06,780 --> 00:02:07,520 but I'm too lazy. 35 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,440 So that's why it didn't happen. 36 00:02:09,920 --> 00:02:11,500 We ended up with a crew that we liked 37 00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:13,800 and now we got a fourth slot open. 38 00:02:13,980 --> 00:02:16,600 So it forces us to reach out 39 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:17,560 and start talking to people. 40 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:18,960 So it should be exciting. 41 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:20,700 Lots of fun conversations to come. 42 00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:23,060 Don't forget to check out the Bitbox. 43 00:02:23,540 --> 00:02:28,460 I did a video recently about the Dixons update that they did to their firmware. 44 00:02:28,820 --> 00:02:35,400 Just in case you got an older version, there's a phishing risk and a firmware risk if you're on a malicious computer. 45 00:02:35,860 --> 00:02:37,240 So just take note of that. 46 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,060 Hardware wallets are supposed to protect you from evil computers. 47 00:02:40,620 --> 00:02:45,320 So that's the reason you want to be safe and make sure that you've plugged all the holes. 48 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,340 There is a discount code right in the show notes with a special link. 49 00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:50,480 You can get the Nova 2. 50 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,060 You can get the Bitbox Classic. 51 00:02:52,860 --> 00:02:53,780 Nova 2 is pretty dope. 52 00:02:54,260 --> 00:02:56,440 And so let's get into the show. 53 00:02:56,900 --> 00:02:58,660 This is the roundtable. 54 00:02:58,820 --> 00:03:03,340 We are back with the good old crew, myself, my brother, and Simple Steve, 55 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:09,640 and our very special guest, Max Hillebrand of Wasabi and White Noise 56 00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:11,340 and so many other cool things. 57 00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:16,120 And this episode is, this time, it's actually different. 58 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:32,520 welcome back everybody good to have you good to have steve jeff back and we finally may have 59 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:38,260 rotating guests in our fourth slot which was actually the original intent of the entire show 60 00:03:38,260 --> 00:03:43,640 was to have some rotating guests but i'm too lazy to actually do that and so we had a crew of four 61 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:49,900 and we just kept doing the same thing every day or every uh every month max hillbrand welcome yo 62 00:03:49,900 --> 00:03:52,220 You're the first guest on the round table, right? 63 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,180 Yeah, I think I have a reason for why. 64 00:03:55,620 --> 00:03:58,080 Because apparently I'm the only listener, right? 65 00:03:58,100 --> 00:04:00,160 And you were saying that, hey, we'll do rotating guests. 66 00:04:00,780 --> 00:04:02,800 I'm like, well, I might as well. 67 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,440 You're never coming on this show again, you piece of shit. 68 00:04:09,460 --> 00:04:10,980 Oh my God, welcome to the show, man. 69 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:12,680 It's a good format. 70 00:04:12,820 --> 00:04:13,260 I like it. 71 00:04:13,780 --> 00:04:14,060 We'll receive it. 72 00:04:14,060 --> 00:04:14,640 Oh, it's fun. 73 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:15,340 It's fun. 74 00:04:15,460 --> 00:04:16,860 It's just shooting the shit. 75 00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:19,720 Everybody, the judgment. 76 00:04:19,900 --> 00:04:21,960 the judgment. Oh my God. 77 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,800 The, I'm, I'm really kind of glad the whole spam warship. 78 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,860 It's kind of, it's kind of over. 79 00:04:26,980 --> 00:04:28,920 At least it's subsided for a little bit. 80 00:04:29,140 --> 00:04:32,300 Cause we get a reprieve. Holy crap. Holy crap. 81 00:04:32,300 --> 00:04:36,340 I was getting so sick of that. Um, from every angle. Uh, 82 00:04:36,340 --> 00:04:39,520 but, uh, uh, we got some really fun freedom tech stuff. 83 00:04:39,700 --> 00:04:41,720 I want to first, 84 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,080 first we'll do our usual go rounds and just kind of get an update. Uh, 85 00:04:46,100 --> 00:04:49,600 and then I want to get into white noise just because I've been finally playing 86 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,600 around with it. But Steve, how you doing boss? 87 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,600 Steve McLaughlin I'm doing good man. I'm glad to have Max here. 88 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,600 Shout out to Max for maintaining 89 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,600 the hard challenge of maintaining a good reputation in Bitcoin 90 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:18,257 for over a decade of being a public figure I was thinking about that when you said Max came on the show I was like man you know what like you have all these fallen heroes like max has been a hero of mine for like a decade continuously 91 00:05:18,257 --> 00:05:24,337 so you got probably two years i'd have him two years left another pressure is on man 92 00:05:24,337 --> 00:05:32,437 but no a uh an update on me um earlier today i was it occurred to me that i have lived my adult 93 00:05:32,437 --> 00:05:41,097 life in reverse. Give me like one minute to explain here. When I was 23, I moved to Florida, 94 00:05:41,717 --> 00:05:50,257 bought a house on a golf course, had a government job where I was like retired in place. 23. 95 00:05:51,077 --> 00:06:00,017 Two decades later, I'm now working at a bar, recently married, starting a family in a two 96 00:06:00,017 --> 00:06:08,977 bedroom apartment with a 26 year old car amazing i'm thinking i'm thinking like you know i never 97 00:06:08,977 --> 00:06:14,877 graduated from high school i got expelled i'm thinking maybe you know next decade i might try 98 00:06:14,877 --> 00:06:20,337 to graduate from high school is that is that true you got expelled from high school how'd you get 99 00:06:20,337 --> 00:06:27,617 how'd you work at nasa oh long story dude i so i got expelled my senior year of high school 100 00:06:27,617 --> 00:06:30,537 for like hacking into the intercom system, 101 00:06:30,697 --> 00:06:32,897 calling the principal asshole, et cetera. 102 00:06:33,097 --> 00:06:35,837 But like I drove to college anyway. 103 00:06:35,837 --> 00:06:37,717 That's the best reason to be expelled ever. 104 00:06:38,817 --> 00:06:41,757 That's a, I knew we were friends for a reason. 105 00:06:42,657 --> 00:06:42,977 Yeah. 106 00:06:43,317 --> 00:06:44,557 I'd already gotten to college. 107 00:06:44,557 --> 00:06:47,837 So I just drove to college, which was like four hours away. 108 00:06:47,857 --> 00:06:48,257 Oh, okay. 109 00:06:48,497 --> 00:06:52,137 And I hope they didn't hear that I never graduated from high school. 110 00:06:52,257 --> 00:06:53,217 And they didn't. 111 00:06:53,597 --> 00:06:54,037 Yes. 112 00:06:54,197 --> 00:06:55,317 They just let me in. 113 00:06:55,317 --> 00:07:02,217 they never found out that i never graduated from high school that's amazing that is beautiful that's 114 00:07:02,217 --> 00:07:08,517 the most beautiful story ever that's the best thing i hacked into the intercom system and called 115 00:07:08,517 --> 00:07:16,157 oh yeah principal and swartz uh andrew schwartz i've been a hacker since you had to like you know 116 00:07:16,157 --> 00:07:24,137 break into the the school and wire wire wires or like you know put wires together by hand so you 117 00:07:24,137 --> 00:07:28,117 had your own microphone in there and old school hacking stuff, dude. 118 00:07:28,217 --> 00:07:28,757 That's amazing. 119 00:07:28,857 --> 00:07:34,117 I wish so bad I had been into this or kind of like understood the value of it back then 120 00:07:34,117 --> 00:07:35,677 because I would have had so much fun. 121 00:07:35,677 --> 00:07:41,777 I was more kind of, you know, just like internet torrent junkie sort of focus 122 00:07:41,777 --> 00:07:43,857 rather than like actual hacking. 123 00:07:44,437 --> 00:07:49,577 I would do just like hardware workshop stuff on that side of things. 124 00:07:49,637 --> 00:07:52,137 And I wish I could have married them way back when 125 00:07:52,137 --> 00:07:54,577 because now I'm getting into it and it's just fun as shit. 126 00:07:55,477 --> 00:07:56,637 Oh, it's so much fun now. 127 00:07:57,097 --> 00:07:59,277 The Red's Cable, 128 00:07:59,517 --> 00:08:03,417 the guy that ran the cable provider for our little town, 129 00:08:04,157 --> 00:08:06,397 actually told us one time on the phone 130 00:08:06,397 --> 00:08:12,677 that we were his heaviest users on the whole network. 131 00:08:12,877 --> 00:08:13,837 And we were in middle school. 132 00:08:14,257 --> 00:08:16,337 So he was like middle school or high school. 133 00:08:19,337 --> 00:08:21,277 Dude, I... 134 00:08:22,137 --> 00:08:33,517 When I was working for Time Warner and Spectrum as a technician, you can look up nodes and see like account or like device basically. 135 00:08:34,317 --> 00:08:40,317 But you can see like subsections on the network and where traffic and bandwidth and all that stuff goes. 136 00:08:41,357 --> 00:08:47,657 Big thing for optimization and where to like focus on cleaning up noise and everything on a broadband network. 137 00:08:47,657 --> 00:08:49,297 but 138 00:08:49,297 --> 00:08:52,677 dude I would just occasionally look mine up 139 00:08:52,677 --> 00:08:54,857 just to see like in comparison 140 00:08:54,857 --> 00:08:56,377 and this is like even way back then 141 00:08:56,377 --> 00:08:58,597 I was running like two bitcoin nodes 142 00:08:58,597 --> 00:09:00,737 and you know all this stuff so just like constant 143 00:09:00,737 --> 00:09:02,337 traffic and 144 00:09:02,337 --> 00:09:04,657 holy crap I just fucked up 145 00:09:04,657 --> 00:09:06,377 that curve every time 146 00:09:06,377 --> 00:09:07,937 like it would look so 147 00:09:07,937 --> 00:09:09,957 stupid on the chart 148 00:09:09,957 --> 00:09:12,657 people are just like grandmas logging in 149 00:09:12,657 --> 00:09:14,677 trying to figure out how to check their email 150 00:09:14,677 --> 00:09:15,477 and stuff 151 00:09:15,477 --> 00:09:17,457 I'm just like 152 00:09:17,657 --> 00:09:20,417 All right, I'm downloading a torrent on this computer, 153 00:09:20,717 --> 00:09:22,637 and I got two Bitcoin nodes running, 154 00:09:22,917 --> 00:09:25,857 and I'm trying to stream this video over here. 155 00:09:26,577 --> 00:09:28,037 How do I figure out how to get... 156 00:09:28,037 --> 00:09:30,257 I don't think I have enough bandwidth left for Netflix. 157 00:09:32,777 --> 00:09:33,297 Max. 158 00:09:34,177 --> 00:09:35,217 Max, Max, Max. 159 00:09:36,017 --> 00:09:36,757 Welcome, man. 160 00:09:37,217 --> 00:09:38,077 What you got going on? 161 00:09:38,157 --> 00:09:41,217 What's new in your life and in Freedom Tech? 162 00:09:42,577 --> 00:09:44,097 Dude, it's busy. 163 00:09:44,097 --> 00:09:46,917 The AI side courses is real. 164 00:09:47,657 --> 00:09:52,997 Like, it's so hard to realize that you're not ambitious enough. 165 00:09:53,257 --> 00:09:57,417 Like, you can solve way harder problems than ever before. 166 00:09:57,917 --> 00:10:01,737 And more projects in parallel, which is so crazy. 167 00:10:02,797 --> 00:10:06,297 So, like, I mean, Highlight for me was releasing White Mowice kind of earlier this week. 168 00:10:06,297 --> 00:10:09,297 And it didn't break, finally, which is great. 169 00:10:10,077 --> 00:10:17,197 But then, you know, in parallel, I've been just building all those little apps that I wanted to have, but didn't have. 170 00:10:17,657 --> 00:10:32,953 And now it just like a side prompt while you working You know once an hour you check in and and just prompt the next thing and it works surprisingly well man it is i think we we have so much customizable 171 00:10:32,953 --> 00:10:41,033 cool freedom tech software that just does what you want it to and nothing else and you just use 172 00:10:41,033 --> 00:10:46,873 it and if if someone else uses you're cool but you don't really have to and and that's so wild 173 00:10:46,873 --> 00:10:49,933 I'm still kind of grappling with that situation of 174 00:10:49,933 --> 00:10:51,873 pick even bigger problems 175 00:10:51,873 --> 00:10:54,073 because we can literally do that 176 00:10:54,073 --> 00:10:55,713 white noise is the perfect example 177 00:10:55,713 --> 00:10:58,113 decentralized encrypted 178 00:10:58,113 --> 00:11:00,173 group messaging without a central server 179 00:11:00,173 --> 00:11:01,893 is almost impossible 180 00:11:01,893 --> 00:11:02,573 it's like 181 00:11:02,573 --> 00:11:06,193 not quite but like bitcoin level impossible 182 00:11:06,193 --> 00:11:07,933 like a decentralized money 183 00:11:07,933 --> 00:11:09,213 without a privileged server 184 00:11:09,213 --> 00:11:11,433 it's a consensus problem, it's really fucking hard 185 00:11:11,433 --> 00:11:14,013 and group communication is kind of 186 00:11:14,013 --> 00:11:14,373 the same 187 00:11:15,033 --> 00:11:24,953 If we all want to encrypt our messages and rotate keys so that if one leaks, you don't leak all the messages, then we need to be in consensus on what key do we encrypt the next message to. 188 00:11:25,593 --> 00:11:27,533 And we don't have a central server. 189 00:11:27,713 --> 00:11:31,613 We don't have a timestamping server that can order our messages and make the stuff easy. 190 00:11:32,493 --> 00:11:36,293 And so it's just really fundamentally a damn hard computer science problem. 191 00:11:36,833 --> 00:11:41,073 And it's been like two and a half years since we worked on that. 192 00:11:41,073 --> 00:11:47,893 And initially we thought, we have MLS, that's the cool encryption scheme, we can use it, it solves all our problems. 193 00:11:47,893 --> 00:11:50,113 And then you realize, oh no, actually it doesn't. 194 00:11:50,113 --> 00:11:57,293 And then we've tried with amazing engineers, real hardcore Ruby on Rails developers. 195 00:11:57,293 --> 00:11:59,093 They love to hand chisel the code. 196 00:11:59,093 --> 00:12:06,533 They're really in it for the craft and spend a year or whatnot on trying to make it work. 197 00:12:06,533 --> 00:12:08,333 And they don't get it to work. 198 00:12:08,333 --> 00:12:14,873 and then a couple months later you just give it to an agent and be like here's everything we learned 199 00:12:14,873 --> 00:12:21,733 here's like what we actually want to do what the fuck do we do and the agent cranks for a bit and 200 00:12:21,733 --> 00:12:25,513 at the end gives you a spec that's way more thorough than anything that you could have ever 201 00:12:25,513 --> 00:12:31,313 come up with basically and and writes you the library that implements it and and the new native 202 00:12:31,313 --> 00:12:37,653 front-end clients that make it pretty so it's it's really like the last six months especially 203 00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:44,393 We started this Marmot version 2 sprint in April or May. 204 00:12:44,593 --> 00:12:45,073 I think May. 205 00:12:46,133 --> 00:12:47,893 And so that's not even been that long. 206 00:12:47,993 --> 00:12:51,653 But the models were amazing already back then and just have improved. 207 00:12:52,453 --> 00:12:57,593 But around that time, middle, early of this year, is where the models really went next level. 208 00:12:57,973 --> 00:12:58,853 And the harnesses too. 209 00:12:59,653 --> 00:13:04,093 And holy shit, you can really solve almost impossible problems now. 210 00:13:04,793 --> 00:13:06,233 And we're kind of done. 211 00:13:06,233 --> 00:13:11,733 I mean, we have a shit ton of polish to do and a couple more features and stuff, but the hard part is solved. 212 00:13:12,433 --> 00:13:17,733 And I'm thinking, okay, what other hard problems do we actually need to solve and can now solve? 213 00:13:18,553 --> 00:13:19,733 Fucking crazy times. 214 00:13:20,433 --> 00:13:21,393 Dude, it so is. 215 00:13:22,033 --> 00:13:26,953 White noise is fascinating from the context of how it uses MLS signatures. 216 00:13:27,193 --> 00:13:31,613 But I didn't get, you kind of brought it up and suggested this. 217 00:13:32,593 --> 00:13:35,373 Actually, before I get into this, I want to mention something that you said. 218 00:13:35,373 --> 00:13:38,033 the last time we were on the show together, 219 00:13:38,433 --> 00:13:40,933 you said something that kind of stuck with me 220 00:13:40,933 --> 00:13:42,813 and I just thought it was so crazy. 221 00:13:43,633 --> 00:13:46,693 And every single time I'm like building my own thing, 222 00:13:46,893 --> 00:13:51,253 the editing, the recording and video 223 00:13:51,253 --> 00:13:52,753 and audio editing app 224 00:13:52,753 --> 00:13:54,213 that I've just spent the last three days 225 00:13:54,213 --> 00:13:56,493 kind of like fine tuning and getting right. 226 00:13:57,193 --> 00:13:57,793 That's it. 227 00:13:57,913 --> 00:14:00,553 I've just been vibe coding for three days on this thing 228 00:14:00,553 --> 00:14:02,813 and I've been using it for the last two days 229 00:14:02,813 --> 00:14:04,073 and just kind of tweaking things 230 00:14:04,073 --> 00:14:07,453 and adding little things that I need to make it fit better into my workflow. 231 00:14:07,453 --> 00:14:14,513 But you said that probably we will move into a place in the not too distant future 232 00:14:14,513 --> 00:14:19,213 where the average number of users for a specific piece of software is one. 233 00:14:20,593 --> 00:14:24,833 Where everybody is literally just creating their own software. 234 00:14:25,533 --> 00:14:29,573 And it was so funny because I thought about that day before yesterday 235 00:14:29,573 --> 00:14:33,233 when I started building this thing because it built out so quick. 236 00:14:33,233 --> 00:14:37,533 It's so quick from like nothing to like, holy shit, I'm just sitting here recording stuff. 237 00:14:39,053 --> 00:14:53,013 And we kind of got the engine ready to turn this like peer to peer and like across all of my devices so that I can do the thing that I've mentioned before the show of like getting up, taking my phone and go out and recording thing, come back to my desktop, record again into the same timeline, all that good stuff. 238 00:14:53,533 --> 00:14:58,673 And then invite my producer in so that he can do some edits or do some things as well. 239 00:14:59,633 --> 00:15:01,953 I really don't think we're very far away from that. 240 00:15:01,953 --> 00:15:11,193 um and uh uh but i was sitting here like messing around with that and like tweaking some things 241 00:15:11,193 --> 00:15:20,913 and i've got like you know four agents plugged into kimmy and i've got like six remote code sessions 242 00:15:20,913 --> 00:15:29,933 in claude app thing and i'm like sitting here using six different apps and four of them are 243 00:15:29,933 --> 00:15:30,773 apps that I built. 244 00:15:31,873 --> 00:15:32,233 Yeah, right. 245 00:15:32,833 --> 00:15:49,030 You know and like the way the way that I getting I just have like a running set of log files which are just Claude conversation and output on my MacBook And then I have the exact same thing running on my Mac mini with Kimmy And they talk to each other 246 00:15:49,030 --> 00:15:52,470 by just putting it in the same Paradrive folder. 247 00:15:53,250 --> 00:15:55,810 So they just, one of them puts their output 248 00:15:55,810 --> 00:15:58,170 into the Paradrive folder and then Kimmy reads it 249 00:15:58,170 --> 00:16:00,130 and put theirs into the Paradrive folder 250 00:16:00,130 --> 00:16:01,290 and then Claude reads it. 251 00:16:01,330 --> 00:16:04,090 So I've kind of got like a little agent chat bot, 252 00:16:04,250 --> 00:16:07,190 which is just syncing a folder with some text files. 253 00:16:08,710 --> 00:16:11,030 And like, that's how I get Paradrive 254 00:16:11,030 --> 00:16:12,270 to all of my computers is Paradrive. 255 00:16:12,750 --> 00:16:13,970 You know, I update the new versions, 256 00:16:13,970 --> 00:16:15,110 just I Paradrive it. 257 00:16:15,190 --> 00:16:18,090 It literally automatically puts it in the delivery folder 258 00:16:18,090 --> 00:16:22,230 and then all of them download and install the new version like that. 259 00:16:23,930 --> 00:16:29,270 Yeah, you know, like that aspect of you build the app from inside the app. 260 00:16:29,850 --> 00:16:31,730 You know, you use PairDrive to build PairDrive. 261 00:16:32,150 --> 00:16:33,150 I have the same with White Noise. 262 00:16:33,930 --> 00:16:35,830 White Noise is my agent interface now. 263 00:16:36,450 --> 00:16:41,510 And I talk to OpenCode, Hermes, OpenClaw, CloudCode, Codex, whatever. 264 00:16:42,010 --> 00:16:43,650 It's just all in the same interface for me. 265 00:16:43,750 --> 00:16:45,890 And I tell him what's broken about the app. 266 00:16:45,890 --> 00:16:47,450 He goes and fixes it. 267 00:16:47,450 --> 00:16:53,810 He builds the APK, makes a pull request, sends me the APK to test, and I tell him to merge it, basically. 268 00:16:54,090 --> 00:17:05,330 So it's this feedback loop where you can customize your own setup and keep fine-tuning it, and then it just works awesome. 269 00:17:05,870 --> 00:17:09,050 There's at least one user that's excited about it and is using it all the time. 270 00:17:09,510 --> 00:17:13,990 And so it will keep getting better as long as you keep exciting and keep building on it. 271 00:17:13,990 --> 00:17:18,770 I am curious how you did the key delegation stuff 272 00:17:18,770 --> 00:17:21,850 because we talked about this 273 00:17:21,850 --> 00:17:24,430 and then also talked about Hyper-B 274 00:17:24,430 --> 00:17:26,770 as being a great way to sync 275 00:17:26,770 --> 00:17:30,710 the potential status of the latest key 276 00:17:30,710 --> 00:17:33,230 or the rotating key or whatnot. 277 00:17:34,930 --> 00:17:36,910 And this is kind of the point where 278 00:17:36,910 --> 00:17:38,550 PairDrive has really been focused on 279 00:17:38,550 --> 00:17:40,350 just getting devices together, 280 00:17:41,030 --> 00:17:41,890 creating an index, 281 00:17:42,090 --> 00:17:43,970 syncing the diffs in that index, 282 00:17:43,990 --> 00:17:45,990 and like, you know, checking its hashes. 283 00:17:46,090 --> 00:17:47,130 It's basically been like, okay, 284 00:17:47,130 --> 00:17:49,370 how do you sync constant changes in a torrent 285 00:17:49,370 --> 00:17:53,390 and have that torrent be a giant collection of files? 286 00:17:54,030 --> 00:17:55,290 And how do you do that efficiently? 287 00:17:55,850 --> 00:17:58,370 Because hyperdrives, when we used it natively 288 00:17:58,370 --> 00:18:00,510 in the HyperCore protocol, 289 00:18:00,650 --> 00:18:03,310 hyperdrives were just a slog. 290 00:18:03,670 --> 00:18:06,270 Like HyperB and like the HyperSwarm, 291 00:18:06,450 --> 00:18:08,490 that stuff has worked amazingly. 292 00:18:08,950 --> 00:18:12,230 And hyperdrive works great on like a one-off type thing. 293 00:18:12,230 --> 00:18:22,870 But if I'm trying to share 100,000 files from my Linux machine to my MacBook, which is child's play for what I have over there, it's just a it's it's dead in the water. 294 00:18:22,990 --> 00:18:28,590 Like I'm just it's using three times what my brave browser is with 40 tabs open. 295 00:18:28,810 --> 00:18:30,230 You know, it's just churning. 296 00:18:30,230 --> 00:18:43,390 And so that was our main focus is how do we do that in a way that makes sense and doesn't just take gargantuan amounts of resources and duplicates of files and all of this stuff. 297 00:18:44,290 --> 00:18:49,170 But now we're in this, okay, how do we log in multiple devices on one account? 298 00:18:49,650 --> 00:18:55,650 How do we hand over keys or say this key is my key and sort all that out? 299 00:18:55,650 --> 00:19:00,070 And that turns out to be its own extremely hard problem. 300 00:19:00,730 --> 00:19:05,110 And I know y'all have a clever setup in White Noise, but I haven't dug into it. 301 00:19:06,890 --> 00:19:09,370 Yeah, this is a hard problem, really. 302 00:19:09,610 --> 00:19:11,110 And especially to do it at scale. 303 00:19:12,070 --> 00:19:20,330 It's easy to have the prototype that can do a couple files, but to do the full file system and terabytes of data, that's a different type of beast. 304 00:19:20,330 --> 00:19:20,770 Yeah. 305 00:19:20,770 --> 00:19:27,450 So for WhiteNoise or the Marmot protocol, there's, I guess, two things. 306 00:19:27,550 --> 00:19:30,170 There's the MLS, Messaging Layer Security. 307 00:19:30,630 --> 00:19:36,690 It's an IETF standard for basically creating a group encryption system, 308 00:19:37,010 --> 00:19:43,050 where the idea is that everyone in a group knows the same symmetric key 309 00:19:43,050 --> 00:19:46,090 to encrypt the messages to and to then later decrypt them. 310 00:19:46,350 --> 00:19:50,690 And the idea of secure encryption is that we rotate keys. 311 00:19:50,770 --> 00:19:53,250 to which we actually encrypt our data to. 312 00:19:53,990 --> 00:19:56,250 And that is part of the MLS spec. 313 00:19:57,690 --> 00:19:59,950 Probably, I'm not sure how deep we should go into it, 314 00:20:00,030 --> 00:20:01,730 in part because I don't understand it that deeply. 315 00:20:01,890 --> 00:20:03,970 Like, MLS is insanely complicated. 316 00:20:04,390 --> 00:20:06,430 The specification is 170 pages. 317 00:20:07,250 --> 00:20:09,270 Like, it's kind of wild. 318 00:20:10,810 --> 00:20:14,410 But ultimately, whenever you add a member to a group, 319 00:20:14,410 --> 00:20:16,190 or you remove a member from the group, 320 00:20:16,450 --> 00:20:18,610 or you change the group name, 321 00:20:18,610 --> 00:20:21,090 or when people do a self-update, 322 00:20:22,210 --> 00:20:23,990 we rotate this key. 323 00:20:24,810 --> 00:20:27,950 And this is like a whole kind of state machine 324 00:20:27,950 --> 00:20:30,870 that gets you to a new set of key 325 00:20:30,870 --> 00:20:34,290 and that's then distributed to everyone else. 326 00:20:34,470 --> 00:20:35,930 So you create a new key 327 00:20:35,930 --> 00:20:37,870 and you encrypt it to the keys 328 00:20:37,870 --> 00:20:40,390 that the previous persons in the group know. 329 00:20:40,790 --> 00:20:42,250 And everyone kind of has his own key 330 00:20:42,250 --> 00:20:43,670 that gets it encrypted too. 331 00:20:45,190 --> 00:20:47,930 But it uses Merkle tree space. 332 00:20:47,930 --> 00:20:49,990 are not quite Merkle trees, but binary trees 333 00:20:50,011 --> 00:20:51,531 which makes it super efficient. 334 00:20:52,011 --> 00:20:55,511 So in theory, you could have a million people in a group 335 00:20:55,511 --> 00:20:57,551 and you can kick someone out 336 00:20:57,551 --> 00:21:01,351 and you only need to encrypt the new key like 10 times 337 00:21:01,351 --> 00:21:03,891 or whatever O log N is at a million, 338 00:21:04,111 --> 00:21:05,131 I think 13 or something. 339 00:21:05,631 --> 00:21:09,751 So really efficient to distribute a new symmetric key 340 00:21:09,751 --> 00:21:11,071 to a whole bunch of people. 341 00:21:12,231 --> 00:21:13,931 And MLS solves this, 342 00:21:14,331 --> 00:21:15,451 which I'm super grateful for 343 00:21:15,451 --> 00:21:17,591 because that's gigabrain stuff. 344 00:21:18,471 --> 00:21:25,311 And what MLS does not solve is how do we know which key belongs to whom? 345 00:21:25,451 --> 00:21:26,811 Kind of web of trust, right? 346 00:21:26,951 --> 00:21:29,691 To some extent, they call it the authentication service. 347 00:21:30,491 --> 00:21:36,351 In the Signal case, it's like, how do you know which public key does this phone number use? 348 00:21:37,071 --> 00:21:41,631 And the answer is you go to the Signal server and says, hey, I want to message this phone number or this username. 349 00:21:42,011 --> 00:21:42,911 What's his public key? 350 00:21:43,791 --> 00:21:46,991 And that's a trusted entity to some extent. 351 00:21:46,991 --> 00:21:49,231 They've optimized a whole bunch there, but still. 352 00:21:50,191 --> 00:21:54,291 And the second important aspect is how do you actually get the messages to everyone? 353 00:21:55,131 --> 00:22:10,851 And here also, what's interesting, and we kind of underestimated this, by the way, for the first time in MLS, is that here, the delivery service, as they call it, is supposed to order the messages and give everyone the messages in the same order. 354 00:22:12,031 --> 00:22:15,591 And if you assume that, things are really straightforward. 355 00:22:15,591 --> 00:22:22,311 But if you want to put that delivery service away, then you have a whole time stamping problem, double spending problem, basically. 356 00:22:23,471 --> 00:22:24,771 But that's a different part of the story. 357 00:22:24,931 --> 00:22:30,251 So your actual question was more about the sub-key system, and that's the authentication service. 358 00:22:31,431 --> 00:22:37,591 And in order to decentralize the authentication service, we just moved the problem one layer deeper. 359 00:22:37,771 --> 00:22:43,591 We don't know who belongs to this key, so we use another key to sign off on it. 360 00:22:43,591 --> 00:22:57,811 And thankfully, with Nostr, we have a good, somewhat established web of trust system where people have their NPUPS and their NSECs and they've been shitposting on Primal or whatever since years. 361 00:22:57,811 --> 00:23:00,411 and now you can use the exact same key 362 00:23:00,411 --> 00:23:03,331 and sign in to the Marmot protocol 363 00:23:03,331 --> 00:23:04,691 or white noise as an app 364 00:23:04,691 --> 00:23:08,551 and that then will give you a signature 365 00:23:08,551 --> 00:23:10,471 on top of a new set of keys 366 00:23:10,471 --> 00:23:13,631 that you've just created for MLS specifically. 367 00:23:14,171 --> 00:23:16,391 So it's very similar to what PGP did 368 00:23:16,391 --> 00:23:18,591 with master keys and child keys 369 00:23:18,591 --> 00:23:21,511 and you could have multiple different child keys 370 00:23:21,511 --> 00:23:24,111 and stuff like this and so same idea. 371 00:23:25,051 --> 00:23:27,151 And there are even different elliptic curves, 372 00:23:27,151 --> 00:23:30,191 different encryption schemes or signature schemes. 373 00:23:31,151 --> 00:23:35,471 It uses the same like the ED25119 or whatever, 374 00:23:36,231 --> 00:23:38,791 similar to torrents and many DHTs. 375 00:23:40,171 --> 00:23:43,131 And another interesting thing is we initially were thinking, 376 00:23:43,691 --> 00:23:46,231 well, MLS has flexible Cypher suites, 377 00:23:46,231 --> 00:23:51,931 so we can slot out the proposed key scheme that they are doing 378 00:23:51,931 --> 00:23:53,911 and use a post-quantum system. 379 00:23:54,151 --> 00:23:55,951 Or we were thinking, let's use Schnorr. 380 00:23:55,951 --> 00:24:01,691 We use it in Bitcoin, we use it in Noster. We could actually use the Schnorr encryption scheme in MLS. 381 00:24:02,131 --> 00:24:06,251 That turns out to be way too much work and not really any benefit. 382 00:24:07,051 --> 00:24:11,711 And so the idea is, okay, we can just adopt a new encryption scheme, just have different algorithms. 383 00:24:12,391 --> 00:24:20,771 But your Noster Schnorr public key gives you a signature over the subkey that is whatever scheme you want in the future post-quantum. 384 00:24:20,771 --> 00:24:23,531 and that's ultimately 385 00:24:23,531 --> 00:24:25,851 how you can do this delegation 386 00:24:25,851 --> 00:24:27,931 to some extent right your main 387 00:24:27,931 --> 00:24:29,951 identity key signs off on the sub key 388 00:24:29,951 --> 00:24:31,511 that is then used 389 00:24:31,511 --> 00:24:33,471 for whatever you want 390 00:24:33,471 --> 00:24:36,051 where it then gets also tricky 391 00:24:36,051 --> 00:24:37,491 is how do we do multi device 392 00:24:37,491 --> 00:24:40,111 if you have five devices 393 00:24:40,111 --> 00:24:42,191 and they all belong to the same user 394 00:24:42,191 --> 00:24:43,711 then 395 00:24:43,711 --> 00:24:45,911 sure you can take your NSEC and 396 00:24:45,911 --> 00:24:47,571 sign the five pub keys 397 00:24:47,571 --> 00:24:49,931 five times and that 398 00:24:49,931 --> 00:24:55,931 works, but yeah, that's a whole things get really complicated there too. 399 00:24:55,931 --> 00:24:57,611 So we haven't really deployed that yet. 400 00:24:58,091 --> 00:24:59,851 We have a draft specification up. 401 00:25:00,291 --> 00:25:01,931 I don't think anyone implemented that yet. 402 00:25:02,411 --> 00:25:03,931 We'll get to that in a couple of weeks. 403 00:25:04,931 --> 00:25:11,051 But yeah, that also then gets into synchronization and it's a tough one. 404 00:25:11,131 --> 00:25:17,051 I was about to say that is exactly the problem that we are focused on right now 405 00:25:17,051 --> 00:25:20,471 because, or at least that I'm focused on, 406 00:25:20,471 --> 00:25:23,231 well, a different thing is kind of getting settled 407 00:25:23,231 --> 00:25:25,311 with Paracord that is related to it. 408 00:25:26,831 --> 00:25:32,491 But essentially, I'm trying to solve it 409 00:25:32,491 --> 00:25:34,531 with the whole space idea already, 410 00:25:34,931 --> 00:25:37,431 is that what we have with spaces is we create a Hyper-B. 411 00:25:38,311 --> 00:25:40,811 We create a Hyper-Swarm and then a Hyper-B, right? 412 00:25:40,851 --> 00:25:44,531 So a network and then a append-only log for that network. 413 00:25:44,531 --> 00:25:48,311 And that is how we update just hashes. 414 00:25:48,571 --> 00:25:50,391 We don't keep the whole index in the Hyper-B. 415 00:25:50,491 --> 00:25:51,351 That's what a lot of people do. 416 00:25:51,451 --> 00:25:54,771 But the index itself has really bad query stuff. 417 00:25:55,111 --> 00:25:56,511 So we're actually just doing SQL. 418 00:25:58,591 --> 00:26:07,425 And so the append log is literally just like a hashes It basically like this is the state this is the state this is the state 419 00:26:08,165 --> 00:26:23,825 And so right now my kind of like base approach is it like, okay, well, we're going to create a space just like all of our other spaces, except our index isn't an index of hundreds of thousands of files and terabytes of storage. 420 00:26:23,825 --> 00:26:30,325 our index is just an index of accounts of devices and what we're doing is we're just syncing those 421 00:26:30,325 --> 00:26:36,845 devices across the space of those devices so that space is just the devices that are my devices 422 00:26:36,845 --> 00:26:43,245 and they boot that one up first and they sync with all the devices in the space and we have a 423 00:26:43,245 --> 00:26:48,585 dumb simple permission system which is just the these are the allowed keys and these are the keys 424 00:26:48,585 --> 00:26:50,225 that you don't send messages to. 425 00:26:51,585 --> 00:26:54,225 And you just kind of rotate the encryption key 426 00:26:54,225 --> 00:26:55,225 and, you know, kick them out. 427 00:26:55,585 --> 00:26:56,865 It's not really like backwards, 428 00:26:57,285 --> 00:26:59,025 forward secrecy or anything like that. 429 00:26:59,045 --> 00:27:00,645 It's just, you know, if you had access, 430 00:27:00,865 --> 00:27:02,745 you can see what was going on 431 00:27:02,745 --> 00:27:03,865 when you had access or whatever. 432 00:27:04,005 --> 00:27:05,105 But after you get kicked out, 433 00:27:05,225 --> 00:27:06,625 you can't look at anything anymore. 434 00:27:08,445 --> 00:27:12,145 But then literally you just sign in a device 435 00:27:12,145 --> 00:27:13,365 exactly like you were saying 436 00:27:13,365 --> 00:27:15,065 with, you know, white noise or whatever. 437 00:27:15,625 --> 00:27:17,905 I just sign this as this is also my public key. 438 00:27:17,905 --> 00:27:22,505 And then that account, that entire space gets roped up into other spaces. 439 00:27:23,045 --> 00:27:30,605 So when you join a space, your entire index of public keys join the space all at once as if this is your account. 440 00:27:30,785 --> 00:27:32,765 And then you rotate that. 441 00:27:32,905 --> 00:27:33,605 So you kick out. 442 00:27:34,225 --> 00:27:38,825 Like if I have a primal and I have an iPhone and Android and a desktop and a Linux, 443 00:27:38,925 --> 00:27:42,605 my Linux is compromised or I'm using a piece of crap that I don't want to use anymore. 444 00:27:42,605 --> 00:27:48,865 I literally just update the state and say, this one's no longer quote unquote signed in. 445 00:27:49,445 --> 00:27:56,265 And so if I can connect to the space, obviously I can get the update to the space because I wouldn't be able to connect to any other ones if I can't connect my own. 446 00:27:57,665 --> 00:28:02,865 And then that's the canonical truth of what's logged in and what's not. 447 00:28:03,125 --> 00:28:06,065 And then you just naturally kick all the other ones out. 448 00:28:06,325 --> 00:28:12,205 In theory, it sounds like it's going to work really easy, but I'm sure it's going to be a real pain in the ass to get it to flow. 449 00:28:12,605 --> 00:28:16,625 does your private user space or whatever, 450 00:28:16,845 --> 00:28:18,365 as all your devices, 451 00:28:19,005 --> 00:28:25,185 when that is logged into other spaces in the network, 452 00:28:25,565 --> 00:28:27,705 it's just sort of represented as one. 453 00:28:29,225 --> 00:28:32,625 That's sort of like an aggregation of all your things. 454 00:28:32,825 --> 00:28:34,725 And so what you do inside of that? 455 00:28:35,065 --> 00:28:37,525 Everything has my signature on it. 456 00:28:37,525 --> 00:28:40,765 So it's like these 10 keys all have my signature. 457 00:28:40,765 --> 00:28:43,205 and the new space basically says 458 00:28:43,205 --> 00:28:45,625 this signature is allowed. 459 00:28:46,645 --> 00:28:49,145 So if those 10 public keys 460 00:28:49,145 --> 00:28:50,065 all have my signature, 461 00:28:50,185 --> 00:28:51,305 those 10 public keys are allowed. 462 00:28:52,045 --> 00:28:53,325 And that's my 10 devices. 463 00:28:53,585 --> 00:28:54,325 And that space is, 464 00:28:54,485 --> 00:28:55,385 where is that hosted? 465 00:28:55,605 --> 00:28:56,845 Like in the DHT? 466 00:28:57,285 --> 00:28:58,305 It's just DHT. 467 00:28:58,565 --> 00:28:59,885 Yeah, it's just a topic in the DHT. 468 00:29:00,145 --> 00:29:01,065 So it's all just like a, 469 00:29:01,465 --> 00:29:03,445 it's a little private 470 00:29:03,445 --> 00:29:04,665 BitTorrent network, right? 471 00:29:06,145 --> 00:29:07,465 So basically that. 472 00:29:07,785 --> 00:29:09,065 But that's kind of the idea right now 473 00:29:09,065 --> 00:29:09,865 that like, 474 00:29:09,865 --> 00:29:21,485 I'm trying to sort out, but I'm kind of waiting on a different thing to really pull the trigger because my problem has been kind of that the pair layer is the discovery layer. 475 00:29:21,845 --> 00:29:24,905 But I want the Noster layer to kind of be the identity layer. 476 00:29:25,385 --> 00:29:36,985 But that means that I have to discover first and then decide what the Noster key is that says the pair discovery was valid, you know, like because like I want to connect peer to peer. 477 00:29:36,985 --> 00:29:39,005 so I'm having a trouble 478 00:29:39,005 --> 00:29:41,245 a little bit of trouble with the key hierarchy 479 00:29:41,245 --> 00:29:42,945 because the public 480 00:29:42,945 --> 00:29:45,065 directory of like Nostrad Identity seems 481 00:29:45,065 --> 00:29:46,245 to make the most sense for 482 00:29:46,245 --> 00:29:49,085 who am I? Like what's 483 00:29:49,085 --> 00:29:51,185 my profile? This kind of reminds 484 00:29:51,185 --> 00:29:53,185 me a little bit of a problem that ZapStore 485 00:29:53,185 --> 00:29:55,045 was having because back in the 486 00:29:55,045 --> 00:29:57,305 day, so ZapStore is the kind of decentralized 487 00:29:57,305 --> 00:29:58,605 permissionless app store 488 00:29:58,605 --> 00:30:00,385 not only for Android apps 489 00:30:00,385 --> 00:30:03,025 one of my most bullish 490 00:30:03,025 --> 00:30:05,045 projects by the way. Back 491 00:30:05,045 --> 00:30:06,525 in the day they started with 492 00:30:06,985 --> 00:30:14,245 Your identity is the pub key, and then you can sign a hash of an app, basically. 493 00:30:14,745 --> 00:30:18,385 And then that's your release that was published via Nostra identity. 494 00:30:19,045 --> 00:30:24,885 But the problem is that the operating system, specifically Android, doesn't care about your Nostra keys, right? 495 00:30:24,885 --> 00:30:31,705 They have the app certificates, whatever cryptography or scheme that they use. 496 00:30:31,845 --> 00:30:35,565 But ultimately, every APK is signed, and it's trust on first use. 497 00:30:35,565 --> 00:30:39,065 So when you install an application that is signed by a public key, 498 00:30:39,505 --> 00:30:41,825 and then when you want to update that application, 499 00:30:41,965 --> 00:30:46,465 the update must be signed by the same public key as the original installed. 500 00:30:46,465 --> 00:30:48,805 It's the Android credentials, 501 00:30:49,245 --> 00:30:52,665 so there's no check if it's the Nostra credentials are right or not. 502 00:30:52,785 --> 00:30:55,205 It has no idea they're even there. 503 00:30:55,405 --> 00:30:56,465 Oh, that's an interesting point. 504 00:30:56,585 --> 00:30:58,745 You can update the app as if it's the same app, 505 00:30:58,805 --> 00:31:00,645 but it could be a malicious actor. 506 00:31:01,245 --> 00:31:02,325 Oh, that sucks. 507 00:31:02,325 --> 00:31:20,558 It also annoying them as a developer because now if I want to make a release I need to get my Nostar key out And then that just kind of annoying And so in the next version that they working on which by the way is going to be so fucking dope it the most tangent but it going 508 00:31:20,558 --> 00:31:26,098 to be the most anonymous app store ever, like the Bitcoin full node level of app stores. Insane. 509 00:31:26,518 --> 00:31:34,178 But one of the things that they're changing is that you sign with your NSEC, your APK public key, 510 00:31:34,278 --> 00:31:39,618 basically like your Android developer public key. And that's a one-time signature and you could 511 00:31:39,618 --> 00:31:41,658 expire that after a year or whatnot. 512 00:31:42,198 --> 00:31:43,658 But you only need to sign it 513 00:31:43,658 --> 00:31:45,638 once. And you can do that in a browser 514 00:31:45,638 --> 00:31:47,478 somewhere. And then from 515 00:31:47,478 --> 00:31:49,718 the future, you just make 516 00:31:49,718 --> 00:31:51,658 your releases as you have always done them 517 00:31:51,658 --> 00:31:53,318 and they have always been signed. 518 00:31:54,158 --> 00:31:55,838 And they still link back 519 00:31:55,838 --> 00:31:57,758 to your nostril identity because you 520 00:31:57,758 --> 00:31:59,278 did a two-way signature 521 00:31:59,278 --> 00:32:01,698 at one point. And 522 00:32:01,698 --> 00:32:03,678 that solved a whole bunch 523 00:32:03,678 --> 00:32:05,338 of problems in their architecture. 524 00:32:06,358 --> 00:32:07,798 And it's already, I think, 525 00:32:07,798 --> 00:32:09,918 how it's working now and they're even further fine-tuning 526 00:32:09,918 --> 00:32:11,418 that in that upcoming version too. 527 00:32:12,278 --> 00:32:13,838 So that seems a bit 528 00:32:13,838 --> 00:32:15,878 similar where you want 529 00:32:15,878 --> 00:32:17,178 to use the Nostra identity, 530 00:32:17,818 --> 00:32:19,718 but you shouldn't 531 00:32:19,718 --> 00:32:21,818 rip out the actual core 532 00:32:21,818 --> 00:32:23,738 cryptography of the base 533 00:32:23,738 --> 00:32:25,918 system that you're using and trying to replace 534 00:32:25,918 --> 00:32:27,858 it with Nostra. Kind of like the same idea 535 00:32:27,858 --> 00:32:29,398 of how we were thinking that 536 00:32:29,398 --> 00:32:31,838 we can just push nor signatures into MLS. 537 00:32:32,978 --> 00:32:33,878 But that's so 538 00:32:33,878 --> 00:32:35,718 convoluted and you don't get any 539 00:32:35,718 --> 00:32:36,638 benefits out of it. 540 00:32:36,638 --> 00:32:40,018 you get all the benefits just by making a one-time 541 00:32:40,018 --> 00:32:41,818 even bidirectional signature 542 00:32:41,818 --> 00:32:43,818 that hey this is my subkey 543 00:32:43,818 --> 00:32:45,378 and that's it 544 00:32:45,378 --> 00:32:47,938 I really like the idea 545 00:32:47,938 --> 00:32:49,718 of kind of a meta 546 00:32:49,718 --> 00:32:51,718 signature scheme where it doesn't really care 547 00:32:51,718 --> 00:32:52,438 what the encryption 548 00:32:52,438 --> 00:32:56,098 like what the ultimate key is that's being used 549 00:32:56,098 --> 00:32:58,038 where 550 00:32:58,038 --> 00:32:59,918 like okay I can 551 00:32:59,918 --> 00:33:01,958 sign for a pair key I can sign for 552 00:33:01,958 --> 00:33:03,638 a Google Android authentication 553 00:33:03,638 --> 00:33:06,098 key I can sign for a quantum 554 00:33:06,098 --> 00:33:13,218 resistant key an mls key doesn't really matter it's just whoever can see that or understands that 555 00:33:13,218 --> 00:33:18,618 the meta signing because it's just signed messages you know it's just it's all just 556 00:33:18,618 --> 00:33:22,918 signed messages and it feels like noster has like this little window this little thing of like 557 00:33:22,918 --> 00:33:28,678 listen sign messages work you know and it's like we should just sign a lot of messages 558 00:33:28,678 --> 00:33:34,278 Can I ask a basic question about white noise? 559 00:33:34,998 --> 00:33:36,698 Because I don't follow it that much. 560 00:33:36,698 --> 00:33:49,478 Is the backend kind of similar to Noster where it's like you count on users running relays or there's like a separate class of people that run kind of relays and nodes? 561 00:33:49,738 --> 00:33:53,318 Or is the client sending messages run everything? 562 00:33:53,638 --> 00:33:56,018 Or does it actually use Noster for its backend? 563 00:33:56,438 --> 00:33:57,498 Or how does that work? 564 00:33:57,498 --> 00:34:04,918 yeah that's a good question and kind of our initial goal was to fix nostr dms because like 565 00:34:04,918 --> 00:34:10,818 the nostr dm like private messaging schemes are right they've always been broken right and and so 566 00:34:10,818 --> 00:34:17,098 that's what we set out for and that's why we use nostr keys and also nostr relays but we wanted to 567 00:34:17,098 --> 00:34:22,838 build it kind of in the spirit of nostr perfect line the gg keeps keeps saying over and over and 568 00:34:22,838 --> 00:34:26,758 i think he's totally right we need to build in the spirit of bitcoin in the spirit of nostr 569 00:34:26,758 --> 00:34:32,278 And that doesn't necessarily mean to build on top of it, just with the same mindset. 570 00:34:32,578 --> 00:34:33,918 And you know it when you see it. 571 00:34:34,638 --> 00:34:38,378 And the beauty of Noster is, you don't care about the relays. 572 00:34:38,698 --> 00:34:41,878 Relays are data storage and data transmit pipes. 573 00:34:42,678 --> 00:34:44,458 The beauty is in the signed message. 574 00:34:44,778 --> 00:34:46,718 A structured JSON that is signed. 575 00:34:47,418 --> 00:34:48,398 That's the breakthrough. 576 00:34:49,418 --> 00:34:50,278 Radical, I know. 577 00:34:50,438 --> 00:34:52,158 But that's where all the magic is at. 578 00:34:52,158 --> 00:34:59,398 so long as somebody reliable is like storing and transmitting yeah but like you know like in 579 00:34:59,398 --> 00:35:04,678 practice i mean i have a personal relay running on on some bps cloud that that you know has a public 580 00:35:04,678 --> 00:35:09,298 ip and has a domain and everything i have a personal relay running on my start nine because 581 00:35:09,298 --> 00:35:15,378 you know why not and and i have one running on my phone so like right there i have one out of three 582 00:35:15,378 --> 00:35:20,618 of my own devices that just need to be available in order to recover like i don't expose my phone 583 00:35:20,618 --> 00:35:22,438 via Tor or FIPS or whatever. 584 00:35:22,538 --> 00:35:24,838 I could, but there's not really a need. 585 00:35:24,898 --> 00:35:26,078 I have a public server for that. 586 00:35:26,978 --> 00:35:29,338 And by the way, I do the same with all my videos. 587 00:35:29,338 --> 00:35:32,498 So 400 gigabytes of video and audio 588 00:35:32,498 --> 00:35:35,858 is mirrored on all my devices, which is cool. 589 00:35:36,598 --> 00:35:39,678 But anyhow, for White Noise specifically, 590 00:35:39,938 --> 00:35:42,918 to build in the spirit of Noster meant for us 591 00:35:42,918 --> 00:35:46,618 that the relays should just be dump delivery pipes. 592 00:35:46,618 --> 00:35:53,978 clients first like smart clients dump servers that that's kind of the spirit that we were going for 593 00:35:53,978 --> 00:36:01,158 and so right now we do use nostril relays but purely as data storage so that you can receive 594 00:36:01,158 --> 00:36:06,158 while you're offline and you know delivery that you don't need to have a public ip or anything 595 00:36:06,158 --> 00:36:15,038 like this and but it is kind of a client-side consensus system we call it convergence which 596 00:36:15,038 --> 00:36:19,478 is a bit more accurate, which means that you don't trust the servers at all. 597 00:36:20,058 --> 00:36:34,391 So you connect to them and you get a firehose of data And then locally on the client side you process all of this data and eventually you will reach the tip of the chain of your group conversation and then you know this is the key that i need to 598 00:36:34,391 --> 00:36:41,931 use to decrypt the message that someone sent to me so a heavy client side logic on figuring out 599 00:36:41,931 --> 00:36:47,811 what is the correct key that we use right now and nostrilis at the moment is the only transport 600 00:36:47,811 --> 00:36:53,571 layer that's supported in the code but it doesn't have to be i mean i was chatting with guy earlier 601 00:36:53,571 --> 00:37:00,051 that potentially this can be done over pair what we've already started on at least research and 602 00:37:00,051 --> 00:37:05,411 prototyping is over fips the new transport layer agnostic mesh network that i'm insanely bullish 603 00:37:05,411 --> 00:37:11,171 about too and it's going to be faster than than the internet and then like if you have a dm and 604 00:37:11,171 --> 00:37:17,011 both people are online it will just go from phone to phone now via the encrypted mesh network hops 605 00:37:17,011 --> 00:37:24,251 Yes, but ultimately no server endpoint in the middle other than the dumb data pipes that pass messages instantly. 606 00:37:25,631 --> 00:37:40,471 And yeah, so the only kind of assumption that we have is that every group member must receive every commit message, which are the messages that change the state of the group, like adding a member, removing a member. 607 00:37:41,091 --> 00:37:43,311 Everyone in the group has to get these. 608 00:37:43,311 --> 00:37:49,891 if you do then we will all be in agreement over what's the next key and we will have a perfectly 609 00:37:49,891 --> 00:37:56,751 working conversation if you lose some of those commit messages then you will fork the group 610 00:37:56,751 --> 00:38:02,971 and guy will use public key a to encrypt the next message and simple like steve will use the public 611 00:38:02,971 --> 00:38:11,311 key b and you will no longer be able to talk to each other gotcha that's awesome and did i hear 612 00:38:11,311 --> 00:38:21,731 correctly that you still communicate with gg yeah sure what i would give anything to have a 613 00:38:21,731 --> 00:38:29,171 conversation with him man he's gone from my life oh man you you gotta come to madera like the so 614 00:38:29,171 --> 00:38:35,691 have you got you guys know about sovereign engineering like yeah i've heard it yeah guys 615 00:38:35,691 --> 00:38:40,951 it's this is one of you know fuck bitcoin conferences i'm kind of at that point now 616 00:38:40,951 --> 00:38:49,031 god damn but like i've i've gotten even more to that point because of things like sovereign 617 00:38:49,031 --> 00:38:56,431 engineering because instead of you know a two-day three-day madness of thousands of people and you 618 00:38:56,431 --> 00:39:02,231 can barely get five sentences in with with the person you actually want to talk to let's get 21 619 00:39:02,231 --> 00:39:09,871 people and lock them on an island for like six weeks and every friday they need to demo something 620 00:39:09,871 --> 00:39:17,151 dangerous reality tv show that sounds awesome but it's so good man it's so good and honestly 621 00:39:17,151 --> 00:39:25,211 the projects that came out of that are wild like zap store blossom marmot um phips do it 622 00:39:25,211 --> 00:39:32,531 six weeks is a toll game forever like the amount of crazy shit that came out of this is wild and 623 00:39:32,531 --> 00:39:37,131 gg was the the primary one spearheading this and and that's where he keeps talking about 624 00:39:37,131 --> 00:39:38,571 built in the spirit of Bitcoin. 625 00:39:39,571 --> 00:39:42,571 And it's a, yeah, it's cool. 626 00:39:42,851 --> 00:39:43,471 You guys should come. 627 00:39:44,151 --> 00:39:47,731 All this stuff, like the FIPS network 628 00:39:47,731 --> 00:39:48,691 is such a great example 629 00:39:48,691 --> 00:39:49,891 because I've been looking at that 630 00:39:49,891 --> 00:39:52,451 as like trying to figure out 631 00:39:52,451 --> 00:39:55,891 how to do alternative networking 632 00:39:55,891 --> 00:39:57,571 to get the same result 633 00:39:57,571 --> 00:40:00,011 and just put our space kind of agnostically 634 00:40:00,011 --> 00:40:03,031 in whatever, like however we can establish connection. 635 00:40:03,251 --> 00:40:04,251 Because like one of the things we're doing 636 00:40:04,251 --> 00:40:05,391 with Pear Drop is that like, 637 00:40:05,451 --> 00:40:06,691 I just want to be able to talk to Bluetooth 638 00:40:06,691 --> 00:40:08,771 tooth and land. You know, I don't want to have 639 00:40:08,771 --> 00:40:10,071 to go out to some DHT 640 00:40:10,071 --> 00:40:12,571 to do this, 641 00:40:12,571 --> 00:40:14,671 because maybe I'm behind a VPN or 642 00:40:14,671 --> 00:40:16,711 something, and stuff is being a 643 00:40:16,711 --> 00:40:18,591 pain in the ass. Like, I don't want that to be 644 00:40:18,591 --> 00:40:19,351 my only option. 645 00:40:20,851 --> 00:40:22,631 And I just want it to work. I just 646 00:40:22,631 --> 00:40:24,791 want it to spit a file from this device 647 00:40:24,791 --> 00:40:26,611 to this device, because they're near each other. 648 00:40:28,491 --> 00:40:30,511 But, like, it 649 00:40:30,511 --> 00:40:31,751 feels like 650 00:40:31,751 --> 00:40:34,211 AI, 651 00:40:34,651 --> 00:40:36,451 like, these whole 652 00:40:36,691 --> 00:40:42,291 this whole tool set and vibe coding and all this and everything that we're headed towards and 653 00:40:42,291 --> 00:40:49,091 everything that we're trying to build is like the manifest destiny of the internet right it was like 654 00:40:49,091 --> 00:40:54,691 the original vision it's like okay eventually we're gonna solve all of this stuff and it's like 655 00:40:54,691 --> 00:41:00,931 bitcoin is such a huge part of like a paradigm shift and like oh what is actually possible like 656 00:41:00,931 --> 00:41:06,211 what did we actually figure out we could accomplish in a totally different way than we had originally 657 00:41:06,211 --> 00:41:06,931 suspect it. 658 00:41:08,831 --> 00:41:10,191 Well, and if you didn't have 659 00:41:10,191 --> 00:41:12,411 a sovereign money, you couldn't 660 00:41:12,411 --> 00:41:14,191 monetize all of this. You can't do anything without 661 00:41:14,191 --> 00:41:14,771 sovereign money. 662 00:41:15,351 --> 00:41:18,331 It's literally like, we had to 663 00:41:18,331 --> 00:41:20,311 bootstrap all of the next stage 664 00:41:20,311 --> 00:41:22,511 with a money. 665 00:41:23,591 --> 00:41:24,371 But the money's not 666 00:41:24,371 --> 00:41:26,371 enough, right? That's one 667 00:41:26,371 --> 00:41:28,391 of the UX. It's all about figuring 668 00:41:28,391 --> 00:41:30,331 out the UX. Like, how do 669 00:41:30,331 --> 00:41:32,291 you get all of this 670 00:41:32,291 --> 00:41:34,111 complexity? It feels like we're creating 671 00:41:34,111 --> 00:41:37,751 in a bird's eye view, like stand back, 672 00:41:37,751 --> 00:41:39,991 like look from outer space, 673 00:41:39,997 --> 00:41:48,717 you it really seems like we're creating a global brain literally and we're and it always makes me 674 00:41:48,717 --> 00:41:54,637 think of like you know the cambrian explosion in like life it's like oh you figure out there's this 675 00:41:54,637 --> 00:42:03,337 new piece and there's this weird like purpose-driven feedback loop where there is so much acceleration 676 00:42:03,337 --> 00:42:11,577 and there is so much like variation all at once trying to figure out what that new paradigm is. 677 00:42:11,577 --> 00:42:14,377 It's like, it's like you hit the edge of the plateau and then it's just like, goes 678 00:42:14,377 --> 00:42:20,877 absolutely vertical until like something sets in and then it, then it turns again, you know, 679 00:42:20,897 --> 00:42:25,897 you got that S curve. Um, and it feels like we're creating this sort of like global brain 680 00:42:25,897 --> 00:42:31,637 that is genuinely decentralized, like a mycelial network, like, like a neural network in a human 681 00:42:31,637 --> 00:42:42,397 brain is, you know, and that that we're trying, we're aggressively trying to find cohesion 682 00:42:42,397 --> 00:42:48,797 around what the security protocol is to actually make it so that each one of these neurons 683 00:42:48,797 --> 00:42:54,817 is playing its role independently, you know, like playing fairly, like there's actual there's 684 00:42:54,817 --> 00:43:00,337 there's basically not a global point of failure because otherwise it's not actually going 685 00:43:00,337 --> 00:43:00,897 to survive. 686 00:43:00,897 --> 00:43:29,777 Like centralization is great in the short term. It leads to quicker adaptation and applying a problem or applying a solution to a problem because you have centralized decision making. But it creates an insane brittleness. Like it's insanely hard. It's a very hard system when you have it centralized because you have very core and cohesive decision making. But it's insanely brittle. 687 00:43:29,777 --> 00:43:35,097 so the bigger it gets it becomes more and more sluggish and it becomes more and more 688 00:43:35,097 --> 00:43:41,097 a victim of collapse and it might be really really hard to break but as soon as it breaks 689 00:43:41,097 --> 00:43:49,317 the whole thing shatters you know um and whereas decentralization is water you know it's like 690 00:43:49,317 --> 00:43:54,717 everything moves everything adjusts this thing can respond to this new piece of information and 691 00:43:54,717 --> 00:43:59,657 send that information it's like a mycelial network it's wild that you know they'll see like this this 692 00:43:59,657 --> 00:44:07,377 thing is considered a multi-set organism and all these different edges of it will literally react 693 00:44:07,377 --> 00:44:13,837 independently and if you break it off they all just continue expanding independently but if this 694 00:44:13,837 --> 00:44:20,757 way just distant corner of a thing encounters a chemical or a plant or an animal that's like 695 00:44:20,757 --> 00:44:28,417 in danger to it and it literally thinks up and adapts a response to it you can go find 696 00:44:28,417 --> 00:44:32,377 a mile away on the end of that huge mycelial network or whatever. 697 00:44:32,497 --> 00:44:36,717 You can go find the parts on the very opposite side of it 698 00:44:36,717 --> 00:44:38,797 now being able to produce that chemical in response. 699 00:44:39,937 --> 00:44:42,877 And that is literally what we're doing for human information 700 00:44:42,877 --> 00:44:44,437 and human ideas. 701 00:44:45,057 --> 00:44:48,277 And it seems to make sense that none of it even works. 702 00:44:48,817 --> 00:44:49,937 You have to evolve AI. 703 00:44:50,057 --> 00:44:52,817 You have to create AI as a tool to actually do that. 704 00:44:53,717 --> 00:44:57,737 You have to create AI to go into outer space. 705 00:44:57,737 --> 00:45:00,417 Like, how are we ever going to do this at the rate that made sense? 706 00:45:00,497 --> 00:45:01,297 We didn't create AI. 707 00:45:02,437 --> 00:45:04,237 However, everybody says it's going to kill us. 708 00:45:05,997 --> 00:45:08,417 That's like the big news right now is we're all going to die. 709 00:45:08,617 --> 00:45:09,317 We're all going to die. 710 00:45:09,557 --> 00:45:15,477 Well, the thing is, the thing is, the people that are saying that it's going to kill us are the people that want regulatory capture. 711 00:45:15,817 --> 00:45:15,977 Yeah. 712 00:45:16,037 --> 00:45:19,757 And it's literally the belief that it's going to kill us that's going to make it evil. 713 00:45:20,137 --> 00:45:20,277 Yeah. 714 00:45:20,317 --> 00:45:24,637 And or like, like, you know, like protect the fact that it is evil. 715 00:45:24,637 --> 00:45:31,677 thinking that we have to use it to control people's access to it right is literally the thing evil 716 00:45:31,677 --> 00:45:38,477 yeah it's literally evil that we have to have a a healthy decentralized network that is actually 717 00:45:38,477 --> 00:45:46,537 updating our models based on true truly decentralized like like right now all of the 718 00:45:46,537 --> 00:45:52,617 models are being heavily manipulated by twitter like this is who was it that just covered this 719 00:45:52,617 --> 00:45:55,497 somebody I was watching 720 00:45:55,497 --> 00:45:56,977 did a podcast on this. 721 00:45:57,377 --> 00:45:59,377 One of the main reasons that these 722 00:45:59,377 --> 00:46:01,497 Twitter, like copy, paste 723 00:46:01,497 --> 00:46:03,957 Twitter things, like everybody's 724 00:46:03,957 --> 00:46:05,557 it's like the same 725 00:46:05,557 --> 00:46:07,557 narrative over and over. It's not even 726 00:46:07,557 --> 00:46:09,157 to convince the people on Twitter. 727 00:46:09,357 --> 00:46:11,357 It's to manipulate the AI. 728 00:46:12,177 --> 00:46:13,557 It's the AI 729 00:46:13,557 --> 00:46:15,557 responses. So if somebody searches 730 00:46:15,557 --> 00:46:16,997 on chat GPT, 731 00:46:17,437 --> 00:46:19,577 what happened to Charlie Kirk 732 00:46:19,577 --> 00:46:21,497 or whatever, right? If they have 733 00:46:21,497 --> 00:46:27,257 repeated enough times that tyler robertson did this then the ai is going to respond with that 734 00:46:27,257 --> 00:46:35,737 and so so there is this like this like concerted effort to manipulate the ai models and if they're 735 00:46:35,737 --> 00:46:40,297 only pulling from one network or from that's that's why reddit corruption i mean reddit corruption 736 00:46:40,297 --> 00:46:45,757 has been a problem forever but like reddit corruption was such a problem because reddit's 737 00:46:45,757 --> 00:46:57,657 being used to train the AI Twitter being used to train the AI We have to have honest networks and honest conversations with real nodes 738 00:46:57,657 --> 00:46:58,957 to get 739 00:46:58,957 --> 00:47:01,197 an AI that's not 740 00:47:01,197 --> 00:47:03,197 biased 741 00:47:03,197 --> 00:47:04,737 one way or the other. 742 00:47:05,357 --> 00:47:06,897 There's still bias, right? 743 00:47:07,637 --> 00:47:09,697 The majority may believe some stupid 744 00:47:09,697 --> 00:47:11,537 thing. It should just be decentralized bias 745 00:47:11,537 --> 00:47:13,237 is the problem. Right. Exactly. 746 00:47:14,197 --> 00:47:15,857 Bias is necessary. 747 00:47:16,057 --> 00:47:17,277 It's like, oh, well, it's bias 748 00:47:17,277 --> 00:47:22,877 to the fact that gravity will pull you towards earth as it was it's like oh oh no you know like 749 00:47:22,877 --> 00:47:28,257 bias is critical bias is just an arbitrary thing to you know point something out as negative when 750 00:47:28,257 --> 00:47:34,737 it's like naturally exists everywhere all the time like bias is simply like you you believe something 751 00:47:34,737 --> 00:47:41,497 that something is concrete somewhere yeah you know and we can kind of push our bias much easier now 752 00:47:41,497 --> 00:47:48,497 because we've never had a lot of people, generally speaking, 753 00:47:48,737 --> 00:47:50,197 in the Freedom Tech area. 754 00:47:50,757 --> 00:47:53,157 And even fewer of those people actually could code. 755 00:47:53,957 --> 00:47:57,277 And I still believe that software is critical for human liberation. 756 00:47:58,677 --> 00:48:04,937 And now we have 100% of the people who are interested in Freedom Tech 757 00:48:04,937 --> 00:48:06,637 can now build Freedom Tech. 758 00:48:07,777 --> 00:48:11,397 There has never been an excuse that because you cannot code, 759 00:48:11,497 --> 00:48:13,377 you cannot work on free open source software. 760 00:48:13,517 --> 00:48:14,957 Like that was always nonsense. 761 00:48:15,497 --> 00:48:17,437 But now it's like especially nonsense. 762 00:48:17,757 --> 00:48:19,237 Because back in the day, I don't know, 763 00:48:19,277 --> 00:48:21,577 you could do product management, marketing, whatever. 764 00:48:22,097 --> 00:48:23,537 Now you can literally do the coding. 765 00:48:24,057 --> 00:48:25,157 All you have to do is care and think. 766 00:48:25,237 --> 00:48:25,937 It's just a prompt. 767 00:48:26,757 --> 00:48:27,977 You have to care and think. 768 00:48:28,417 --> 00:48:29,597 And if you can't do those things, 769 00:48:29,657 --> 00:48:30,277 what the hell do you think? 770 00:48:30,377 --> 00:48:31,937 You can do anything with Freedom Tech anyway. 771 00:48:33,497 --> 00:48:37,077 And you also have to accept some kind of responsibility 772 00:48:37,077 --> 00:48:37,877 or something. 773 00:48:38,017 --> 00:48:40,657 Because I think a lot of the reasons people, 774 00:48:40,657 --> 00:48:46,317 you know hire an accountant and hire a marketing person and hire somebody else is that like they 775 00:48:46,317 --> 00:48:50,377 want to be able to like point the finger at somebody else when something goes wrong 776 00:48:50,377 --> 00:48:58,717 oh dude do you know what i mean the amount of that is insane yeah i mean yeah like i mean okay 777 00:48:58,717 --> 00:49:03,457 everybody wants to be like if something bad happens you don't want it to be your fault like 778 00:49:03,457 --> 00:49:07,057 that's you know like i don't know i mean there's a degree to which like if it is your fault like 779 00:49:07,057 --> 00:49:12,797 you can do something about it maybe but like you know i understand that there's like uh you know 780 00:49:12,797 --> 00:49:17,977 we get trained like you don't want to mess up right nobody wants things to go bad but like the 781 00:49:17,977 --> 00:49:26,777 amount of just like i don't know i've had so many conversations with like people friends over the 782 00:49:26,777 --> 00:49:32,097 years that like work in a place and they're like it feels like atlas shrugged or whatever it's like 783 00:49:32,097 --> 00:49:36,657 it's like is that like the whole idea that you're just sort of walking through empty rooms if you 784 00:49:36,657 --> 00:49:41,297 just take responsibility for what's happening everybody wants to give it to you because they're 785 00:49:41,297 --> 00:49:50,017 so afraid of like of like being you know like making a decision decision yeah yeah and and 786 00:49:50,017 --> 00:49:57,857 and like i don't know radical responsibility yeah i feel like i'm encountering that half the time 787 00:49:57,857 --> 00:50:02,737 when i'm talking to customer service or something somewhere is that like they can't you can't do 788 00:50:02,737 --> 00:50:06,337 anything they don't want the responsibility of doing something outside of like whatever the 789 00:50:06,337 --> 00:50:11,757 policy is like whatever just and then they just they just read you a response like they don't yeah 790 00:50:11,757 --> 00:50:16,357 there's not even people they're like they're just like i want a bot to take over my job 791 00:50:16,357 --> 00:50:25,297 okay um but what's what's crazy about that too is just in kind of the especially like 792 00:50:25,297 --> 00:50:32,537 leftists and stuff talking about how like and everybody can be ceos and and everybody just 793 00:50:32,537 --> 00:50:37,957 evil business owners just stole all of this from us.

Like you don't actually have to legally exist. And lots of people are still doing, 841 00:53:59,996 --> 00:54:06,756 you know, different parts of a job together, you know, like, like producing different parts of 842 00:54:06,756 --> 00:54:17,456 something? I would say that the reason or the biggest like barrier to that would be that, 843 00:54:18,456 --> 00:54:23,336 well, the biggest one would actually be the problem we just talked about is that the hierarchy 844 00:54:23,336 --> 00:54:29,456 isn't necessarily for thinking. The hierarchy is for responsibility. It's who's going to take 845 00:54:29,456 --> 00:54:39,596 responsibility for what change or what decision or what cost. Right. And I think the thing actually 846 00:54:39,596 --> 00:54:47,996 works more seamless when you do have a responsibility hierarchy because of how, how much people don't, 847 00:54:47,996 --> 00:54:53,576 I mean, people don't want to make decisions about like the simplest of things. I mean, look, look at, 848 00:54:53,676 --> 00:54:57,256 you're in, you're in the pair drive stuff. Like, you know, we've, we've been working on this for 849 00:54:57,256 --> 00:55:02,776 forever, right? How, how much of a pain in the ass and how often do we, are we always just like, 850 00:55:03,236 --> 00:55:06,856 I don't know, what do you think about whether this button should be long or tall? You know, 851 00:55:06,856 --> 00:55:12,216 like, I mean, just, just like crazy little mundane decisions like that, but that have like a real 852 00:55:12,216 --> 00:55:19,416 effect on like how you feel when using a thing and how much of a pain in the ass it is. And like, 853 00:55:19,496 --> 00:55:24,716 how many times have I made a decision? And it's just like, that was a terrible decision. That was 854 00:55:24,716 --> 00:55:28,076 so stupid we gotta bring the sidebar back why the why did we get rid of the sidebar i don't even 855 00:55:28,076 --> 00:55:34,476 remember why i got rid of the sidebar why i'm i'm i just wasted two weeks of our time building it 856 00:55:34,476 --> 00:55:40,796 this way because this is stupid this is a terrible i hate it already you know um and so like you have 857 00:55:40,796 --> 00:55:44,916 to have the hierarchy for the responsibility get rid of the sidebar to know that you needed this 858 00:55:44,916 --> 00:55:54,296 you're an idiot for getting rid of the sidebar um and uh but uh but then the other one would be um 859 00:55:54,296 --> 00:56:02,276 uh vision you know it's like those uh decentralized painting out well those old decentralized painting 860 00:56:02,276 --> 00:56:07,316 things that they did on like bitcoin early on and i think somebody even made one for noster 861 00:56:07,316 --> 00:56:12,796 where like you can get like everybody wants to make their pictures there put their pixels on it 862 00:56:12,796 --> 00:56:16,976 it was like a lightning thing wasn't it yeah yeah there's a lightning thing too yeah um it's like 863 00:56:16,976 --> 00:56:22,996 look it's a public bulletin board and i go to it just look fucking insane it looks like it looks 864 00:56:22,996 --> 00:56:29,876 like the worst possible graffiti wall that you've ever seen it's not even like good graffiti you 865 00:56:29,876 --> 00:56:36,616 know it's just what i mean is something something like linux right like there's a million different 866 00:56:36,616 --> 00:56:41,616 flavors of linux you can always fork the project right and make it like now i want to make it my 867 00:56:41,616 --> 00:56:48,656 way but i just feel like you could you could have a say it's a car let's call it a car company like 868 00:56:48,656 --> 00:56:54,756 I design, I redesign things around a very basic, 869 00:56:55,336 --> 00:56:57,456 let's say I have an engine idea that's very simple. 870 00:56:57,876 --> 00:56:59,976 It solves a handful of problems. 871 00:57:00,576 --> 00:57:05,776 I have, basically, I've spent years and years 872 00:57:05,776 --> 00:57:10,656 coming up with everything to do just a base platform for a vehicle. 873 00:57:11,396 --> 00:57:23,376 And then I going to produce this version I got some other people helping me produce parts of it And those are like the official you know this is my version And then other people can take it and contribute 874 00:57:23,476 --> 00:57:25,976 They can produce their own version of my car. 875 00:57:25,976 --> 00:57:30,296 Like they can make a Linux car or whatever, a Jeffrey car, 876 00:57:30,396 --> 00:57:31,356 whatever you want to call it. 877 00:57:32,196 --> 00:57:34,616 And they just. 878 00:57:35,176 --> 00:57:36,756 Hey, dude, you got that new Jeffrey? 879 00:57:37,636 --> 00:57:38,716 No, that's terrible. 880 00:57:39,476 --> 00:57:41,416 But they can essentially. 881 00:57:41,776 --> 00:57:42,436 I'm not V8 Jeffrey. 882 00:57:42,496 --> 00:57:45,896 put their twist on it 883 00:57:45,896 --> 00:57:48,696 and change whatever they want. 884 00:57:48,796 --> 00:57:49,456 I mean, it could be... 885 00:57:49,456 --> 00:57:50,316 Create a car protocol 886 00:57:50,316 --> 00:57:52,496 and make everybody... 887 00:57:52,496 --> 00:57:54,276 Or spec and make everybody... 888 00:57:54,276 --> 00:57:55,716 And people can be compatible with it. 889 00:57:55,996 --> 00:57:56,996 So that's Wikicar. 890 00:57:57,156 --> 00:57:58,156 Wikicar tried to do that 891 00:57:58,156 --> 00:57:59,376 technically in a sense. 892 00:57:59,956 --> 00:58:00,276 Sure. 893 00:58:00,456 --> 00:58:01,396 And I think... 894 00:58:01,396 --> 00:58:01,916 I mean, obviously, 895 00:58:02,036 --> 00:58:03,096 there's people working 896 00:58:03,096 --> 00:58:04,196 in that direction. 897 00:58:04,416 --> 00:58:05,676 There's also the 898 00:58:05,676 --> 00:58:08,136 open source ecology people. 899 00:58:09,356 --> 00:58:11,896 But I think one of the main problems 900 00:58:11,896 --> 00:58:16,836 with something like that is just that, well, just look at, fuck, 901 00:58:16,996 --> 00:58:20,496 it's the same problem in the phones, it's the same problem in cars, 902 00:58:21,036 --> 00:58:26,036 is that there's proprietary garbage, both hardware and software, 903 00:58:26,636 --> 00:58:31,296 but like that you're solving the same problem over and over 904 00:58:31,296 --> 00:58:33,716 with somebody's bullshit. 905 00:58:34,156 --> 00:58:38,456 Basically, what Noster did was take very, very simple things 906 00:58:38,456 --> 00:58:43,216 and make a network out of like simple stuff that we, you know, we knew were possible. 907 00:58:44,296 --> 00:58:47,556 What cars have done is they're like, oh, computers exist now. 908 00:58:47,996 --> 00:58:52,976 We don't have to, we can abandon like Rea stats for, you know, knobs that actually do anything. 909 00:58:52,976 --> 00:58:58,416 We can abandon, you know, these like old switch technology that actually works forever. 910 00:58:58,996 --> 00:59:01,116 We can abandon all that and just make it a computer. 911 00:59:01,556 --> 00:59:08,256 And then everything has to, you know, like it's just a fake button, you know, or a fake knob or whatever. 912 00:59:08,456 --> 00:59:09,976 Like that's horrible. 913 00:59:10,116 --> 00:59:10,916 That's horrible. 914 00:59:10,916 --> 00:59:12,276 Like user experience. 915 00:59:12,476 --> 00:59:14,396 It's horrible from an engineering standpoint. 916 00:59:14,956 --> 00:59:16,616 The failure mode is garbage. 917 00:59:16,796 --> 00:59:18,376 Like what we need. 918 00:59:18,636 --> 00:59:22,636 They're all locked in with unions to have to use this company to build the interface. 919 00:59:22,756 --> 00:59:24,236 So they all build shit interfaces. 920 00:59:24,376 --> 00:59:32,436 They don't know jack about computers and design or anything, but like they're going to lose all of their workers if they don't buy the interface from this one company. 921 00:59:32,836 --> 00:59:38,276 And like, and so they just got like this chokehold of like, you can't sure you're going to switch to computers. 922 00:59:38,456 --> 00:59:42,276 But you're still going to use the company that made the buttons, that made the old dials. 923 00:59:42,276 --> 00:59:45,556 And we're going to design app interfaces like, oh, that's going to go well. 924 00:59:45,916 --> 00:59:46,736 How'd that work? 925 00:59:47,596 --> 01:00:01,256 And we've now gotten to the point where there's these like cheap stepper motors everywhere from 3D printers and stuff that like small light ones that you could make very, very simple circuits. 926 01:00:01,256 --> 01:00:06,816 like like you know arduino even if you had to put 20 arduinos in the car or whatever like 927 01:00:06,816 --> 01:00:10,976 tiny like it's i'm sure there's something simple than a microcontroller or whatever 928 01:00:10,976 --> 01:00:16,856 something's very very simple you can make a circuit that's reliable that does a complicated 929 01:00:16,856 --> 01:00:22,616 thing with a stepper motor and then you can apply that to like 10 different things in the car 930 01:00:22,616 --> 01:00:27,576 and they don't all depend on each other they don't all you know you could make something you 931 01:00:27,576 --> 01:00:30,896 you come up with a very, I don't know, 932 01:00:30,956 --> 01:00:32,536 redundant's not the word, but like, you know, 933 01:00:32,616 --> 01:00:35,036 a robust sort of like. 934 01:00:35,416 --> 01:00:36,096 Kind of modular. 935 01:00:37,616 --> 01:00:38,896 Modular, that's exactly. 936 01:00:39,276 --> 01:00:42,076 A very modular system that solves all these problems. 937 01:00:42,576 --> 01:00:44,436 And I feel like that would be, like, 938 01:00:44,576 --> 01:00:49,136 that's sort of the foundation we need for open source cars, 939 01:00:49,136 --> 01:00:52,676 open source heavy equipment, open source anything. 940 01:00:52,916 --> 01:00:55,776 Like you need, you know, to have the refinement, 941 01:00:55,776 --> 01:00:59,476 that you get from the modern electronics 942 01:00:59,476 --> 01:01:01,616 combined with the reliability 943 01:01:01,616 --> 01:01:03,636 of the old Rea stats 944 01:01:03,636 --> 01:01:05,316 and whatever it is. 945 01:01:05,396 --> 01:01:08,056 I just want a car that you can work on again, man. 946 01:01:08,416 --> 01:01:11,056 I feel like I'm so sick of stuff 947 01:01:11,056 --> 01:01:12,696 that I don't own. 948 01:01:12,816 --> 01:01:14,896 Have you guys seen the Edison Motors 949 01:01:14,896 --> 01:01:15,896 from Canada? 950 01:01:16,676 --> 01:01:17,096 No. 951 01:01:17,176 --> 01:01:18,216 Really interesting guys. 952 01:01:19,036 --> 01:01:21,396 They're working on heavy vocational 953 01:01:21,396 --> 01:01:25,056 diesel hybrid electric trucks. 954 01:01:25,056 --> 01:01:27,556 or you have the diesel generator that charges 955 01:01:27,556 --> 01:01:29,076 a relatively small battery 956 01:01:29,076 --> 01:01:31,676 and then you have full electric drive. 957 01:01:32,756 --> 01:01:34,136 For one, cool concept. 958 01:01:34,716 --> 01:01:35,856 It's a series hybrid? 959 01:01:37,196 --> 01:01:37,396 Yeah. 960 01:01:37,536 --> 01:01:38,636 Instead of a parallel hybrid? 961 01:01:38,716 --> 01:01:38,896 Yeah. 962 01:01:39,556 --> 01:01:39,976 Exactly. 963 01:01:40,176 --> 01:01:42,576 It's like a train or something, right? 964 01:01:42,696 --> 01:01:43,076 Exactly. 965 01:01:43,216 --> 01:01:43,756 Like a train. 966 01:01:43,756 --> 01:01:45,516 It works great for heavy machinery. 967 01:01:46,596 --> 01:01:48,836 And so they're like loggers from Canada 968 01:01:48,836 --> 01:01:52,816 and built a really cool truck 969 01:01:52,816 --> 01:01:54,256 with the right to repair. 970 01:01:55,056 --> 01:01:59,076 I did reach out to them trying to get them to orange pill them. 971 01:01:59,736 --> 01:02:02,036 And it doesn't seem like they're fully open source, 972 01:02:02,356 --> 01:02:05,496 but they're very community focused 973 01:02:05,496 --> 01:02:08,916 and don't want to get big VCs involved, 974 01:02:08,916 --> 01:02:12,056 but actually want to get small truckers to chip in 975 01:02:12,056 --> 01:02:13,856 and get a small equity position as well. 976 01:02:14,936 --> 01:02:15,756 Really cool. 977 01:02:15,896 --> 01:02:18,096 If I were driving a big ass truck, 978 01:02:18,196 --> 01:02:19,876 I would probably try to drive that one. 979 01:02:20,916 --> 01:02:22,936 You know, I just shout out, 980 01:02:22,936 --> 01:02:23,836 talking about like 981 01:02:23,836 --> 01:02:24,876 things built on 982 01:02:24,876 --> 01:02:26,216 proprietary stuff 983 01:02:26,216 --> 01:02:26,796 and just like 984 01:02:26,796 --> 01:02:27,916 carrying baggage 985 01:02:27,916 --> 01:02:29,996 from you know 986 01:02:30,008 --> 01:02:36,828 one era to the next or one layer to the next got to give a shout out to matt hill and the start nine 987 01:02:36,828 --> 01:02:45,788 team because legends i've got the um start nine router the whole thing oh you have one how is it 988 01:02:45,788 --> 01:02:51,168 oh it's fucking great i i set it up once i barely even touched i have not even gotten the time to 989 01:02:51,168 --> 01:02:56,988 like sit down and like actually play play because like i want to set up my network downstairs but i 990 01:02:56,988 --> 01:03:08,608 It was so easy to just kind of do the default, not the default, but the main things that I wanted to do, like selecting devices and knowing what I did. 991 01:03:08,608 --> 01:03:11,748 And I just did like a one run setup on the first thing. 992 01:03:11,828 --> 01:03:13,668 It's been working, working amazing. 993 01:03:14,928 --> 01:03:19,508 And even the chip, even the chip is open source. 994 01:03:19,668 --> 01:03:24,828 And that is one thing that I don't know anything, but they're using the RISC-V chip. 995 01:03:24,828 --> 01:03:26,528 so the entire 996 01:03:26,528 --> 01:03:29,048 like I don't see how they 997 01:03:29,048 --> 01:03:31,108 they don't basically win 998 01:03:31,108 --> 01:03:33,168 the trophy on the most secure 999 01:03:33,168 --> 01:03:35,008 and most open source router that 1000 01:03:35,008 --> 01:03:35,788 exists anywhere 1001 01:03:35,788 --> 01:03:38,068 and 1002 01:03:38,068 --> 01:03:41,128 I hope man I hope that thing's like super 1003 01:03:41,128 --> 01:03:42,748 successful if it isn't I think it's just because 1004 01:03:42,748 --> 01:03:44,928 the word didn't get out that people knew 1005 01:03:44,928 --> 01:03:46,748 it was a thing 1006 01:03:46,748 --> 01:03:48,068 but 1007 01:03:48,068 --> 01:03:50,068 I was very lucky to get 1008 01:03:50,068 --> 01:03:52,968 one of the super early 1009 01:03:52,968 --> 01:03:54,268 runs of it 1010 01:03:54,268 --> 01:03:58,448 um in fact mine doesn't even have a it just has the one ethernet because it's not even 1011 01:03:58,448 --> 01:04:03,088 it's like one of the like almost prototype type things or whatever so i just plug it into my 1012 01:04:03,088 --> 01:04:06,788 my big switch but um it's dope i just want to shout out that 1013 01:04:06,788 --> 01:04:13,868 you know one thing that i think um scott from bidax got really lucky with 1014 01:04:13,868 --> 01:04:19,568 um you know how scott from bidax is the open source hero right he's he's just like 1015 01:04:19,568 --> 01:04:25,928 the biggest promoter of open source ever and she's freaking been right about everything he's said 1016 01:04:25,928 --> 01:04:32,708 now that like the cold card hack and you know the liquid hack and all this stuff ai and he just got 1017 01:04:32,708 --> 01:04:37,468 so lucky man like if ai wouldn't have come around and hacked everything he wouldn't have been so 1018 01:04:37,468 --> 01:04:44,488 right about open source but i have to admit like scott from bidx all the arguments we've had over 1019 01:04:44,488 --> 01:04:50,568 all the years has just been so right like everything has to be open source so many arguments 1020 01:04:51,608 --> 01:04:58,248 there's there's just no excuse anymore and uh it's not like you saw ai coming like this scott 1021 01:04:58,248 --> 01:05:00,968 don't act like that don't even pretend you're that good 1022 01:05:03,608 --> 01:05:10,808 you just guess and you got lucky eggs right though i'm really looking forward to like some big you 1023 01:05:10,808 --> 01:05:13,068 you probably need a lot of capital for that. 1024 01:05:13,208 --> 01:05:15,848 But we have big whales now. 1025 01:05:16,468 --> 01:05:19,348 So someone should just build a cypherpunk as fuck, 1026 01:05:19,528 --> 01:05:21,928 open source, basic hardware stuff. 1027 01:05:21,928 --> 01:05:26,328 I want headphones, charging bricks, 1028 01:05:27,288 --> 01:05:29,768 simple everyday stuff. 1029 01:05:29,768 --> 01:05:30,368 Dude, I want to do that. 1030 01:05:30,508 --> 01:05:35,588 Man, it's on my list of infinite projects, right? 1031 01:05:36,008 --> 01:05:38,528 But that's one of the things I've always wanted to do, 1032 01:05:38,528 --> 01:05:39,748 of just like making, 1033 01:05:40,228 --> 01:05:40,988 I want to make, 1034 01:05:41,188 --> 01:05:42,508 in the same way that I'm trying to build 1035 01:05:42,508 --> 01:05:43,468 all my own software 1036 01:05:43,468 --> 01:05:45,608 and I get annoyed with my recording 1037 01:05:45,608 --> 01:05:46,408 and editing software, 1038 01:05:46,508 --> 01:05:47,228 I'm like, I'm going to make my own 1039 01:05:47,228 --> 01:05:48,268 recording and editing software. 1040 01:05:48,728 --> 01:05:49,408 I want to make my own, 1041 01:05:49,508 --> 01:05:50,528 I want to make like a simple 1042

really efficient 1512 01:31:53,287 --> 01:31:54,807 for transaction batching 1513 01:31:54,807 --> 01:31:57,407 because if you have like 10 payments 1514 01:31:57,407 --> 01:31:59,387 to make and make 10 transactions 1515 01:31:59,387 --> 01:32:00,567 it gets expensive quick 1516 01:32:00,567 --> 01:32:03,547 and with this way cheaper 1517 01:32:03,547 --> 01:32:04,847 and way more private 1518 01:32:04,847 --> 01:32:06,947 this is pretty cool 1519 01:32:06,947 --> 01:32:09,427 I can't believe I didn't know this 1520 01:32:09,427 --> 01:32:11,427 hey actually Max 1521 01:32:11,427 --> 01:32:11,887 I have 1522 01:32:11,887 --> 01:32:14,327 I have a question. 1523 01:32:15,127 --> 01:32:19,427 When I was renting hash this summer, I was just kind of doing that experiment. 1524 01:32:19,967 --> 01:32:25,667 And I was getting fresh coin bases from fresh blocks from ocean. 1525 01:32:26,007 --> 01:32:28,707 I felt like a freaking hero, man. 1526 01:32:28,847 --> 01:32:31,527 I just felt so empowered. 1527 01:32:32,147 --> 01:32:37,127 But it related back to this idea we had of smelting. 1528 01:32:37,587 --> 01:32:39,127 Sorry, it's coming up again, guy. 1529 01:32:40,007 --> 01:32:40,427 I love it. 1530 01:32:40,467 --> 01:32:41,147 I love smelting. 1531 01:32:41,147 --> 01:32:42,267 Talk about it more. 1532 01:32:42,987 --> 01:32:53,467 The hash rental thing make you think about the idea of mixing through freshly mined coin bases at all? 1533 01:32:53,967 --> 01:32:55,687 Or have you ever thought deeply about that? 1534 01:32:57,427 --> 01:32:57,827 Yeah. 1535 01:32:58,927 --> 01:33:03,247 This was years ago, but I was talking to the brains pool or slush pool guys. 1536 01:33:03,247 --> 01:33:08,187 and was kind of seeing if there was some way 1537 01:33:08,187 --> 01:33:13,187 that either they could add their mining output, 1538 01:33:13,987 --> 01:33:15,167 like their Coinbase outputs, 1539 01:33:15,487 --> 01:33:16,867 on the input side of a CoinJoin 1540 01:33:16,867 --> 01:33:19,727 and add this anonymity to the pool, 1541 01:33:20,087 --> 01:33:21,467 which is interesting, 1542 01:33:21,947 --> 01:33:24,707 or then just have some atomic swap 1543 01:33:24,707 --> 01:33:26,987 of a CoinJoin output for the Coinbase output, 1544 01:33:28,127 --> 01:33:29,547 which would also be really interesting. 1545 01:33:30,727 --> 01:33:32,547 And this was, I don't know, 1546 01:33:33,247 --> 01:33:36,247 five years ago or so, maybe more. 1547 01:33:36,287 --> 01:33:54,160 And they were telling me and I was quite surprised that they tried multiple times to get an actual market for Coinbase outputs and that it simply wasn there like people were not willing to pay a premium for the the coinbase outputs fresh at least not substantially 1548 01:33:54,160 --> 01:34:02,580 or at volume yeah so interesting i don't i don't know if that changed we're just early this is 1549 01:34:02,580 --> 01:34:07,680 the government the government's not tyrannical enough yet i was about to say it hasn't really 1550 01:34:07,680 --> 01:34:16,860 been as for all the hoopla and rage and all the stuff for um for you know all those little 1551 01:34:16,860 --> 01:34:23,820 potential risks and the whole hotel announcements and like that sort of stuff it really has not been 1552 01:34:23,820 --> 01:34:31,040 a problem i mean it certainly hasn't been for me and like i don't i don't think like i got the 1553 01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:32,420 dirtiest UTXOs out there. 1554 01:34:32,440 --> 01:34:32,880 My dirty God, 1555 01:34:32,940 --> 01:34:35,080 my UTXOs have gonorrhea 1556 01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:36,800 and like, 1557 01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:37,940 you don't even know. 1558 01:34:39,180 --> 01:34:39,580 But, 1559 01:34:39,620 --> 01:34:40,940 but it's like, 1560 01:34:41,020 --> 01:34:41,340 seriously, 1561 01:34:41,460 --> 01:34:42,300 like it just doesn't, 1562 01:34:42,360 --> 01:34:43,280 it's never really been, 1563 01:34:43,700 --> 01:34:44,940 and it's always been like a 1564 01:34:44,940 --> 01:34:46,720 almost going to happen issue 1565 01:34:46,720 --> 01:34:47,940 and it's never really been an issue. 1566 01:34:48,020 --> 01:34:49,700 And I think that's probably the reason. 1567 01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:50,580 And, 1568 01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:50,940 and like, 1569 01:34:50,980 --> 01:34:51,220 you know, 1570 01:34:51,340 --> 01:34:52,240 where we're going, 1571 01:34:52,360 --> 01:34:53,860 it's not a problem at all. 1572 01:34:53,920 --> 01:34:55,080 It's kind of also same to, 1573 01:34:55,220 --> 01:34:56,240 to like your early discussion 1574 01:34:56,240 --> 01:34:56,840 of phone numbers. 1575 01:34:56,940 --> 01:34:57,140 Like, 1576 01:34:57,440 --> 01:34:58,660 the obvious solution is just get rid 1577 01:34:58,660 --> 01:34:59,320 of the phone number. 1578 01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:01,580 get rid of your bank account 1579 01:35:01,580 --> 01:35:02,800 get rid of your exchanges 1580 01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:06,080 and it's not a problem anymore 1581 01:35:06,080 --> 01:35:08,160 so sure it might be a problem in the interim 1582 01:35:08,160 --> 01:35:09,300 but 1583 01:35:09,300 --> 01:35:11,860 I mean it's your choice to 1584 01:35:11,860 --> 01:35:13,660 be stuck in the interim just go 1585 01:35:13,660 --> 01:35:15,660 radical all the way and 1586 01:35:15,660 --> 01:35:16,640 it's done 1587 01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:19,540 that's what I talk about a lot 1588 01:35:19,540 --> 01:35:20,760 is people talk about like oh well 1589 01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:23,540 I still don't 1590 01:35:23,540 --> 01:35:25,060 people say bitcoin is not private 1591 01:35:25,060 --> 01:35:27,560 and there are elements where I 1592 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:34,420 understand like what they're saying i also think they're they're misapplying or they're 1593 01:35:34,420 --> 01:35:43,080 misequating a problem of the the world where we're part bitcoin part fiat and applying it to a bitcoin 1594 01:35:43,080 --> 01:35:49,000 only world that just doesn't dig where it doesn't actually exist like the pseudonymity of bitcoin 1595 01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:54,320 is actually still a pretty fantastic tool or a characteristic of it. 1596 01:35:55,720 --> 01:36:00,480 And I feel like I run into this or I have this situation. 1597 01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:02,680 I think about this every once in a while myself 1598 01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:06,600 because I will get paid in Bitcoin and then I pay people in Bitcoin. 1599 01:36:07,940 --> 01:36:12,660 And those are the same, like I, there's not, 1600 01:36:12,820 --> 01:36:15,100 I don't get KYC on either of those sides. 1601 01:36:15,580 --> 01:36:17,780 I just have people that I'm doing business with. 1602 01:36:17,780 --> 01:36:27,140 And it's like on a Bitcoin standard or in a world where we have a real economy in Bitcoin with Bitcoiners, with people who are actually taking the asset. 1603 01:36:28,660 --> 01:36:34,480 It literally, that is not, it's a problem of which wallet or service or whatever you use, you know. 1604 01:36:35,800 --> 01:36:38,600 It's not a fundamental problem of Bitcoin. 1605 01:36:39,260 --> 01:36:45,920 We're talking about an on-ramp and an off-ramp problem because everybody's just one step away from those things and those things are KYC'd. 1606 01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:48,380 but yeah I still think 1607 01:36:48,380 --> 01:36:50,940 the future even without major changes 1608 01:36:50,940 --> 01:36:53,140 just like when it comes to liquidity on the network 1609 01:36:53,140 --> 01:36:54,900 the future for privacy is still pretty 1610 01:36:54,900 --> 01:36:57,180 it's still pretty good 1611 01:36:57,180 --> 01:36:58,400 in some context 1612 01:36:58,400 --> 01:37:00,440 speaking of that 1613 01:37:00,440 --> 01:37:01,420 does anybody know 1614 01:37:01,420 --> 01:37:03,120 I haven't followed anything 1615 01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:06,040 does anybody have any new information on the liquid stuff 1616 01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:11,940 no I have not heard anything new 1617 01:37:11,940 --> 01:37:14,700 since the whole thing went down 1618 01:37:14,700 --> 01:37:26,760 And they got their 600 Bitcoin payout or trade and all the 3,800 or whatever got sent back, I think it was. 1619 01:37:28,280 --> 01:37:32,800 Quick vibe check from you guys, but are they white hats or black hats, the hackers? 1620 01:37:34,060 --> 01:37:34,660 That's a gray hat. 1621 01:37:34,660 --> 01:37:35,880 I mean, that's a gray hat. 1622 01:37:35,900 --> 01:37:37,220 Yeah, that's a gray hat all the way. 1623 01:37:37,480 --> 01:37:43,700 They made a deal to be black hat, to safely be a black hat, right? 1624 01:37:43,700 --> 01:37:46,380 Well, Blockstream said that they're still going to go after them. 1625 01:37:46,520 --> 01:37:49,480 They don't agree to the 600 is what I read. 1626 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:51,000 Oh, interesting. 1627 01:37:51,240 --> 01:37:51,380 Okay. 1628 01:37:51,660 --> 01:37:55,260 Well, regardless, I think that was their defense, right? 1629 01:37:55,360 --> 01:37:58,360 Is that what they thought or the intent was to, 1630 01:37:58,760 --> 01:38:01,780 we're going to steal, but we're going to steal in such a way 1631 01:38:01,780 --> 01:38:05,700 that we get an enormous amount of money and... 1632 01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:07,360 Maybe they'll leave us alone. 1633 01:38:07,420 --> 01:38:11,840 Yeah, but not have to deal with running for our entire lives. 1634 01:38:11,840 --> 01:38:14,180 but like that's that's so 1635 01:38:14,180 --> 01:38:16,040 short-sighted you know like if you 1636 01:38:16,040 --> 01:38:18,100 they should have like keep it all 1637 01:38:18,100 --> 01:38:19,840 man with the mindset just keep it all 1638 01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:24,100 because they're gonna come after 1639 01:38:24,100 --> 01:38:26,220 you regardless like it's not like 600 1640 01:38:26,220 --> 01:38:28,060 bitcoin is a small amount that you could 1641 01:38:28,060 --> 01:38:29,760 forget you know yeah 1642 01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:33,840 I don't know I still have a little bit of 1643 01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:36,140 conspiracy theory mind you know I 1644 01:38:36,140 --> 01:38:37,440 grew up in the world where 1645 01:38:37,440 --> 01:38:39,680 Canadian exchange operators 1646 01:38:39,680 --> 01:38:41,980 faked their own death in India. 1647 01:38:41,980 --> 01:38:48,980 You know, like, I also know like Adam Back is in some serious financial 1648 01:38:48,980 --> 01:38:50,780 difficulties right now. 1649 01:38:50,780 --> 01:39:06,313 I don know how you run a company and like never become profitable and have hundreds of million dollars of fiat funding and then and then you get hacked for like whatever money and it just like how how is this guy still operational 1650 01:39:06,313 --> 01:39:12,113 man and i don't know man i i feel like there's funny business going down but i've got no proof 1651 01:39:12,113 --> 01:39:19,953 of anything we'll see are you saying that like maybe maybe it's useful in some way like what's 1652 01:39:19,953 --> 01:39:24,273 going on is that what you mean does adam back actually know who the hackers are is there 1653 01:39:24,273 --> 01:39:28,593 is their act does he actually not know who they are i mean i don't know 1654 01:39:28,593 --> 01:39:35,173 yeah i don't i don't know enough about what's going on over there i i have a jade 1655 01:39:35,173 --> 01:39:43,513 you know or are you saying that andy andy back he's hacked his own company i'm not saying i'm 1656 01:39:43,513 --> 01:39:47,693 just saying we've seen crazy crazier things happen in big oh did andy come out the crazy 1657 01:39:47,693 --> 01:39:49,593 Andy came out. 1658 01:39:50,473 --> 01:39:51,933 Yeah, no, Adam didn't hack himself, 1659 01:39:52,073 --> 01:39:53,473 but Andy might have hacked Adam. 1660 01:39:54,913 --> 01:39:57,113 Doctor backing Mr. Andy. 1661 01:40:01,073 --> 01:40:03,853 Because I've for a long time thought that 1662 01:40:03,853 --> 01:40:07,553 Liquid was a fantastic privacy tool because... 1663 01:40:07,553 --> 01:40:09,873 Because of bulletproofs and confidential transactions, yeah. 1664 01:40:10,693 --> 01:40:13,893 Well, but also you can bridge onto Lightning 1665 01:40:13,893 --> 01:40:15,353 and then exit. 1666 01:40:15,353 --> 01:40:25,373 I mean, using it as a way to move money just seemed like a very simple, very easy thing. 1667 01:40:26,153 --> 01:40:29,253 And there are a bunch of cool little swap services that look great. 1668 01:40:30,133 --> 01:40:32,753 Yeah, the privacy on the other side is pretty decent, I feel like. 1669 01:40:33,193 --> 01:40:35,933 But not if you can't move them. 1670 01:40:36,293 --> 01:40:41,753 And it's crazy that they didn't even, like what they exploited made it. 1671 01:40:41,753 --> 01:40:45,353 So, you know, the security, right, is like all the keys. 1672 01:40:45,513 --> 01:40:46,673 It's a giant multi-sig. 1673 01:40:47,493 --> 01:40:52,313 But you have to have like an auto, if you're running like a swap in and out, 1674 01:40:52,513 --> 01:40:58,233 you have to have an automated way to exchange in and out of the network, 1675 01:40:58,393 --> 01:41:00,313 like to have an approved transaction. 1676 01:41:01,213 --> 01:41:08,173 And what they gained was a shortcut in the bulletproof verification 1677 01:41:08,173 --> 01:41:11,893 where essentially there was like a caching system 1678 01:41:11,893 --> 01:41:17,373 for proving that a bulletproof was a valid transaction. 1679 01:41:18,013 --> 01:41:21,473 And then they would cash that approval 1680 01:41:21,473 --> 01:41:22,993 and they wouldn't check it again 1681 01:41:22,993 --> 01:41:25,253 if they thought they were getting the exact same transaction. 1682 01:41:25,973 --> 01:41:27,593 And somehow they found an exploit 1683 01:41:27,593 --> 01:41:29,333 that allowed them to submit a new transaction 1684 01:41:29,333 --> 01:41:32,133 to actually make edits to it and submit it 1685 01:41:32,133 --> 01:41:33,573 and make it look like it was valid 1686 01:41:33,573 --> 01:41:35,913 with the previous approval that they did 1687 01:41:35,913 --> 01:41:40,433 because of like the stack of like how the confident or the bulletproofs or whatever 1688 01:41:40,433 --> 01:41:44,993 like it would verify like certain pieces but it like left out these two critical 1689 01:41:44,993 --> 01:41:52,713 things that kind of like a there was a bug in bitcoin actually that i believe worked kind of 1690 01:41:52,713 --> 01:41:59,233 in this same theoretical mistake was that there looked like there was a redundant check 1691 01:41:59,233 --> 01:42:05,693 where when you got a transaction and then when you got a block and uh one of those 1692 01:42:05,693 --> 01:42:12,613 checks was dropped from the code um this is the one i think uh i can't remember what the name of 1693 01:42:12,613 --> 01:42:17,853 it was but i think it was shit no i don't want to say i don't want to say the guy's name that i think 1694 01:42:17,853 --> 01:42:25,453 it was just because i'm not trying to run somebody to the mud um but anyway run him if i could well i 1695 01:42:25,453 --> 01:42:34,073 could be totally wrong it could be misremembering their name um or who it was i mean uh but uh it 1696 01:42:34,073 --> 01:42:40,053 Basically, they dropped what they thought was a redundant verification because they'd already done it. 1697 01:42:40,473 --> 01:42:47,233 But it's different in the when the scenario is different, when you receive the information from a different location, it actually matters to check it again. 1698 01:42:47,233 --> 01:43:00,553 And so that was kind of what sounds like what happened is they they had the approved transaction that was of a proper amount of Bitcoin and they had cashed the approval. 1699 01:43:00,553 --> 01:43:05,213 and then misapplied that approval to a new transaction 1700 01:43:05,213 --> 01:43:07,213 that was like, give me 4,400 Bitcoin. 1701 01:43:07,793 --> 01:43:09,733 And they did it quietly because it's like, you know, 1702 01:43:09,773 --> 01:43:12,573 confidential transactions, like, and they're like automatic approval. 1703 01:43:12,573 --> 01:43:14,633 And then boom, there's a Bitcoin transaction 1704 01:43:14,633 --> 01:43:17,853 with like everything that's in Liquid, you know? 1705 01:43:19,073 --> 01:43:21,933 There's the zero knowledge fuck up. 1706 01:43:22,313 --> 01:43:24,393 And that's just zero knowledge proofs are hard to verify. 1707 01:43:24,573 --> 01:43:26,913 And so you cash and caching can be buggy. 1708 01:43:27,233 --> 01:43:27,393 Yep. 1709 01:43:27,673 --> 01:43:30,113 But the second aspect is the peg out. 1710 01:43:30,553 --> 01:43:33,033 Because Liquid is a custodial system, right? 1711 01:43:33,073 --> 01:43:34,693 The Bitcoin are no longer on your keys. 1712 01:43:34,813 --> 01:43:36,673 They're on like 11 or 15 multisig. 1713 01:43:37,093 --> 01:43:37,433 Exactly. 1714 01:43:37,713 --> 01:43:40,733 And you know, maybe, just maybe, 1715 01:43:40,873 --> 01:43:44,193 but if 4,000 Bitcoin get pegged out, 1716 01:43:45,473 --> 01:43:49,173 let a human look over it, you know, run a check. 1717 01:43:50,233 --> 01:43:54,613 Don't fully automate like 100% withdrawal 1718 01:43:54,613 --> 01:43:55,953 of a custodial system. 1719 01:43:56,413 --> 01:43:57,933 That's really the problem right there, 1720 01:43:58,153 --> 01:44:00,533 is that there was no like, 1721 01:44:00,553 --> 01:44:06,893 size guard on, you know, like automated approval. 1722 01:44:07,253 --> 01:44:09,973 And like that, that should happen. 1723 01:44:09,979 --> 01:44:14,319 both at the network level and then also at the service level, right? 1724 01:44:14,839 --> 01:44:17,979 You know, like whatever automated peg out they have 1725 01:44:17,979 --> 01:44:19,239 should be gated by a mail. 1726 01:44:20,739 --> 01:44:23,159 And it doesn't seem like it would be that hard 1727 01:44:23,159 --> 01:44:25,959 or that hugely inconvenient when you're talking about, 1728 01:44:25,959 --> 01:44:29,019 like, what's 4,000 Bitcoin, right? 1729 01:44:29,099 --> 01:44:30,039 Is it $800 million? 1730 01:44:30,719 --> 01:44:33,219 Or is that 8 billion? 1731 01:44:33,319 --> 01:44:35,339 How much is, how many zeros? 1732 01:44:36,119 --> 01:44:36,459 P-mails. 1733 01:44:37,699 --> 01:44:38,959 I don't even know anymore. 1734 01:44:38,959 --> 01:44:40,259 I can't keep up. 1735 01:44:41,499 --> 01:44:41,819 Times. 1736 01:44:42,019 --> 01:44:42,839 I got a calculator. 1737 01:44:43,159 --> 01:44:44,339 What do you want? 1738 01:44:44,659 --> 01:44:45,059 How much? 1739 01:44:45,099 --> 01:44:45,859 Trying to count zeros. 1740 01:44:47,059 --> 01:44:47,859 $352 million. 1741 01:44:50,579 --> 01:44:53,639 Yeah, so not billion, but $352 million. 1742 01:44:54,079 --> 01:44:57,159 But, you know, let's say $10 million. 1743 01:44:57,739 --> 01:45:00,019 When you hit to the $10 million mark, 1744 01:45:00,679 --> 01:45:02,499 this is the second check. 1745 01:45:02,959 --> 01:45:04,199 Second check, you know? 1746 01:45:04,699 --> 01:45:05,599 Well, I mean, you know, 1747 01:45:05,719 --> 01:45:07,079 like banks are tracking people 1748 01:45:07,079 --> 01:45:08,539 that are moving more than $4,000. 1749 01:45:08,539 --> 01:45:13,399 Well, no, $600 is like one of the thresholds now. 1750 01:45:13,559 --> 01:45:16,439 But then $4,000 and then $10,000. 1751 01:45:17,079 --> 01:45:21,759 And that $10,000 has been like a critical limit for a long time. 1752 01:45:22,519 --> 01:45:26,079 And that's worth less and less, you know, as decades go on. 1753 01:45:26,439 --> 01:45:30,399 Yeah, you know when they started that back in the 1970s or something like that? 1754 01:45:31,139 --> 01:45:32,959 Maybe 60s, I don't remember exactly. 1755 01:45:33,099 --> 01:45:34,839 But you know why $10,000 was chosen? 1756 01:45:35,579 --> 01:45:36,059 Why? 1757 01:45:36,059 --> 01:45:37,519 Because it was the median income. 1758 01:45:38,539 --> 01:45:39,959 oh wow 1759 01:45:39,959 --> 01:45:41,619 it was the median income 1760 01:45:41,619 --> 01:45:43,199 now you can't buy a used car 1761 01:45:43,199 --> 01:45:43,879 that's so crazy 1762 01:45:43,879 --> 01:45:47,459 yeah they got full surveillance 1763 01:45:47,459 --> 01:45:48,639 on every transaction 1764 01:45:48,639 --> 01:45:50,879 just because they inflated away their standard 1765 01:45:50,879 --> 01:45:52,639 it's a pretty smart move though 1766 01:45:52,639 --> 01:45:53,999 gotta give that to them 1767 01:45:53,999 --> 01:45:54,959 oh it's genius 1768 01:45:54,959 --> 01:45:57,059 like you play the long game right 1769 01:45:57,059 --> 01:45:58,299 50 years later 1770 01:45:58,299 --> 01:46:00,439 you know 10 years from now 1771 01:46:00,439 --> 01:46:02,179 your KYC 1772 01:46:02,179 --> 01:46:05,079 double check government report 1773 01:46:05,079 --> 01:46:06,479 automated system 1774 01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:08,339 probably watched over and reported 1775 01:46:08,339 --> 01:46:10,679 to every financial agency by AI 1776 01:46:10,679 --> 01:46:12,259 every time you go to the grocery store. 1777 01:46:12,719 --> 01:46:13,139 10K. 1778 01:46:14,319 --> 01:46:15,099 Guarantee it. 1779 01:46:15,399 --> 01:46:16,619 2035, 2040. 1780 01:46:17,299 --> 01:46:18,359 Like you can be thousands of dollars 1781 01:46:18,359 --> 01:46:19,519 every time you go to the grocery store. 1782 01:46:20,099 --> 01:46:21,499 Government debt's going to be, 1783 01:46:21,859 --> 01:46:22,919 what do we got? 1784 01:46:24,159 --> 01:46:26,259 So 2025, 2035. 1785 01:46:27,499 --> 01:46:28,479 So 80. 1786 01:46:29,459 --> 01:46:34,819 So 2045 will be around $200 trillion debt. 1787 01:46:35,139 --> 01:46:36,479 It's Canadian money, 1788 01:46:36,479 --> 01:46:41,819 but I'm spending 300, 350 bucks twice a week sometimes. 1789 01:46:42,019 --> 01:46:44,379 I mean, like that's just, it's crazy. 1790 01:46:45,519 --> 01:46:45,779 Oh yeah. 1791 01:46:46,039 --> 01:46:47,059 Well, dude, we buy, 1792 01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:51,919 we try to buy stuff that doesn't have pesticides all over it 1793 01:46:51,919 --> 01:46:53,139 and we buy real food. 1794 01:46:53,919 --> 01:46:56,159 Our grocery bills are insane, man. 1795 01:46:56,999 --> 01:46:57,279 Yeah. 1796 01:46:57,479 --> 01:46:59,099 Like I'm about to buy chickens. 1797 01:46:59,239 --> 01:47:00,559 Our grocery bills are so bad. 1798 01:47:03,759 --> 01:47:05,819 A pet project that I have, 1799 01:47:05,819 --> 01:47:12,279 i think i've told you about it a few times but not max for sure is um bitcoin has a built-in 1800 01:47:12,279 --> 01:47:21,099 completely self-referential um measure of its purchasing power yeah you takes oracle i arrived 1801 01:47:21,099 --> 01:47:28,419 through utx oracle yeah so it's like like utx oracle does the round usd amounts whatever but 1802 01:47:28,419 --> 01:47:35,279 if you just don't think about usd price just think about purchasing power of bitcoin usd price is like 1803 01:47:35,279 --> 01:47:42,799 a rough estimate of some magical thing called purchasing power, right? You can get a very good 1804 01:47:42,799 --> 01:47:50,459 purchasing power of Bitcoin just looking at the fractionization of UTXO sizes. 1805 01:47:51,839 --> 01:48:00,779 If you just look at the median UTXO size used to be one Bitcoin. Now the median UTXO size 1806 01:48:00,779 --> 01:48:11,959 is 0.001 bitcoin and it has a 95 correlation with the usd price just looking at um median utxo 1807 01:48:11,959 --> 01:48:19,219 size and um you can just throw out usd price and like i kind of want to just start publishing the 1808 01:48:19,219 --> 01:48:25,379 bitcoin purchasing power just based on just based on the median yeah like just think about bars of 1809 01:48:25,379 --> 01:48:32,279 gold right like if you if you somehow had a database of the sizes of all the bars of gold 1810 01:48:32,279 --> 01:48:38,539 in the world and you just saw this over thousands of years and you saw the fractionization like hey 1811 01:48:38,539 --> 01:48:43,459 what's the median size of a gold bar is it this big or is it this big or is it this big because 1812 01:48:43,459 --> 01:48:48,839 people make smaller fractionizations when it becomes more valuable yeah and it's just like 1813 01:48:48,839 --> 01:48:56,879 point of it is to segment out value yeah right so it's not perfect but it's remarkably simple 1814 01:48:56,879 --> 01:49:02,099 and self-referential and you don't have to reference any outside data it's all on chain 1815 01:49:02,099 --> 01:49:08,339 purchasing power this man's i'm really excited about that our resident blockchain archaeologist 1816 01:49:08,339 --> 01:49:14,379 speaks up well that's like some some breakthrough economic data like that's freaking awesome i know 1817 01:49:14,379 --> 01:49:15,159 this is wild. 1818 01:49:15,759 --> 01:49:15,939 Yeah. 1819 01:49:16,179 --> 01:49:17,279 I've had the earlier, 1820 01:49:17,419 --> 01:49:27,179 this idea I had this I had this idea I was like dude this could be awesome We don even need Fiat to tell us purchasing power We don need anything to tell us purchasing power All we need is UTXO sizes 1821 01:49:27,799 --> 01:49:27,819 Yeah. 1822 01:49:28,639 --> 01:49:30,379 So GDP's always been shit. 1823 01:49:30,379 --> 01:49:32,779 Even coin joins would work on that, though. 1824 01:49:33,439 --> 01:49:33,959 I know. 1825 01:49:33,959 --> 01:49:38,179 Even coin joins, because you have to have a coin join threshold, 1826 01:49:38,439 --> 01:49:43,179 like UTXO size threshold that's relevant to your users' amount of capital 1827 01:49:43,179 --> 01:49:46,959 to actually make it do its job well. 1828 01:49:47,479 --> 01:49:54,879 yeah and the real the real measure of economic growth is deflation yeah so so you're you throw 1829 01:49:54,879 --> 01:50:00,599 out gdp this is your new gdp this is the better gdp exactly yeah it's it's this is economic growth 1830 01:50:00,599 --> 01:50:07,979 the only nuance is uh timescale so like i'm fairly confident that somewhere between like 1831 01:50:07,979 --> 01:50:12,819 you don't want to do it on a week yeah because like you have noise and you have an attack but 1832 01:50:12,819 --> 01:50:19,999 if you do it even on a monthly time scale you have so many hundreds of billions data data points 1833 01:50:19,999 --> 01:50:25,919 and median is extremely robust to anyone trying to attack it or anything like that 1834 01:50:25,919 --> 01:50:33,219 so like absolutely rock solid a year for the purchasing power um but i i think a monthly 1835 01:50:33,219 --> 01:50:38,479 rolling average uh monthly median would give you almost perfect purchasing power 1836 01:50:38,479 --> 01:50:48,819 You should standardize it and do a little schema and call it the BPP standard or whatnot. 1837 01:50:49,419 --> 01:50:52,759 And just have it hosted on a website. 1838 01:50:53,099 --> 01:50:55,899 And every time we talk about it, we'll report what the new BPP is. 1839 01:50:56,939 --> 01:50:58,939 Oracle finally kills USD price. 1840 01:51:00,179 --> 01:51:02,959 I told you the whole time I didn't care about the USD price. 1841 01:51:03,199 --> 01:51:03,839 The whole time. 1842 01:51:05,579 --> 01:51:07,939 Because with Lightning, the payment channel size. 1843 01:51:08,479 --> 01:51:09,859 would be affected. 1844 01:51:09,899 --> 01:51:10,639 Would do the same thing. 1845 01:51:11,319 --> 01:51:11,419 Yeah. 1846 01:51:11,659 --> 01:51:11,839 Yeah. 1847 01:51:12,919 --> 01:51:13,259 Yeah. 1848 01:51:14,359 --> 01:51:16,879 Nah, it's a pretty clever ass. 1849 01:51:16,959 --> 01:51:18,799 I bet you can see that just in your data, Max, 1850 01:51:18,899 --> 01:51:19,979 with Wasabi. 1851 01:51:20,239 --> 01:51:21,539 Like, just look at the sizes 1852 01:51:21,539 --> 01:51:23,159 people have been doing over the years. 1853 01:51:24,439 --> 01:51:24,839 Yeah. 1854 01:51:25,099 --> 01:51:26,839 I mean, we definitely noticed this 1855 01:51:26,839 --> 01:51:27,779 because when we were starting, 1856 01:51:27,939 --> 01:51:29,179 you know, we chose to 0.1 Bitcoin. 1857 01:51:29,179 --> 01:51:29,699 Max is about to lose 5 hours of live coding. 1858 01:51:31,959 --> 01:51:34,839 Like, we had 0.1 Bitcoin default denomination. 1859 01:51:35,299 --> 01:51:37,959 And back then, that was like 100 bucks or something. 1860 01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:41,059 And when we finally switched, and that was the minimum, 1861 01:51:41,239 --> 01:51:43,199 you could not coin join if you had less than that. 1862 01:51:44,039 --> 01:51:46,539 And when we finally switched to 2.0, 1863 01:51:46,939 --> 01:51:48,919 that was like, I don't know, 10,000 bucks or something. 1864 01:51:48,919 --> 01:51:53,759 So poor guys couldn't coin join back then, which sucked. 1865 01:51:54,659 --> 01:51:57,239 And yeah, that's fixed now. 1866 01:51:57,699 --> 01:52:01,219 And now it's kind of, you know, we choose outputs amount randomly, 1867 01:52:01,679 --> 01:52:06,799 which probably messes up your metric, maybe. 1868 01:52:06,799 --> 01:52:14,279 but again like with the median not really and like really the median yeah yeah and and and just 1869 01:52:14,279 --> 01:52:18,379 large numbers you know if you come in with truly random it doesn't actually affect the median 1870 01:52:18,379 --> 01:52:24,299 measurement yeah yeah because it just comes in as extremes either way because there's always going 1871 01:52:24,299 --> 01:52:31,319 to be a bulk in the middle you know yeah and this idea is based on the most simple thing ever 1872 01:52:31,319 --> 01:52:37,919 The median transaction that people make, just median in general, is $100. 1873 01:52:39,099 --> 01:52:40,199 Always has been. 1874 01:52:40,739 --> 01:52:41,699 Always will be. 1875 01:52:42,219 --> 01:52:45,119 And that's just going to be a different amount of Bitcoin. 1876 01:52:45,319 --> 01:52:47,619 I disagree with the always will be. 1877 01:52:48,039 --> 01:52:50,799 The $100 is worth anything very soon. 1878 01:52:51,839 --> 01:52:52,939 Yeah, exactly. 1879 01:52:53,159 --> 01:52:53,919 But you know what I mean? 1880 01:52:53,979 --> 01:52:57,719 Well, let's say like a full tank of gas on a… 1881 01:52:57,719 --> 01:52:59,059 Steve is a Fiat Maxi. 1882 01:52:59,659 --> 01:53:00,499 I can't believe it. 1883 01:53:00,499 --> 01:53:05,119 Full tank of gas on a big car right now is like $100 maybe or something like that, right? 1884 01:53:05,219 --> 01:53:14,259 So full tank of gas on a big car, that value right there, that's going to be your average transaction purchasing power forever because people live large. 1885 01:53:14,259 --> 01:53:15,539 This guy doesn't even have a Tesla. 1886 01:53:16,759 --> 01:53:18,299 People go out to eat. 1887 01:53:19,519 --> 01:53:29,039 People are going to make transactions once a week or so on daily basis for this amount of purchasing power because people's basic needs don't change much. 1888 01:53:29,039 --> 01:53:34,979 they need gas they need clothes they need food you know like it's just gonna the average 1889 01:53:34,979 --> 01:53:40,839 transaction size is gonna be something about that their basic needs if you average together 1890 01:53:40,839 --> 01:53:48,239 uh jeffrey's and my grocery bills you're right there's the medium there it is there you go 1891 01:53:48,239 --> 01:53:55,239 oh man yeah it's fascinating i gotta jump off here guys yeah dude we're already me too i'm 1892 01:53:55,239 -->

something that could be bad. 2430 02:17:35,685 --> 02:17:41,245 And it just reports the entire stack of stuff installed on my computer, basically. 2431 02:17:41,425 --> 02:17:48,865 It says, no new exploits, no references to dangerous or questionable things today. 2432 02:17:49,645 --> 02:17:54,385 And if it finds one, it just proposes a solution and replaces it with something else. 2433
