Awesome interview, thanks for the link. The end of the interview where Chomsky describes the Internet as a double-edged sword and (correctly) suggests that it could turn into "a home-marketing service, and a way of…
I think these are more questions about Gaia than Stealthy, but apply to any multi-user application on Blockstack: - How are my messages to another user retrieved from my encrypted storage? - Does sending you a message…
Thanks for getting back to me! > if the close gives Alice 10 lumens and Bob 10 lumens, these must be expressed as two transactions. As in, in this case, closing requires two transactions, Escrow -> Alice and Escrow ->…
Can the final transaction to the network (that closes a channel) be a series of transactions? In other words, can a state channel allow for transactions with more than 100 operations?
Can any Stellar operation be used within a state channel, and as a result, can any Stellar transaction be sent through the LN? For example, my use case requires users increasing and decreasing the limits on trustlines…
Speed? No, not really in comparison to any other LN implementation. But Stellar will be supporting state channels in addition to payment channels, (presumably) allowing for even faster exchange operations (buy/sell…
This is awesome work, and a great example of the kinds of civic analysis and action developers can take to make their cities and communities better, or at least more informed of the reality they operate within. Also,…

Well it's pretty easy to spend an asset that's consistently increasing in value... the real test of it's utility as money is how many businesses and people have started accepting Bitcoin recently.
> Yes the rational choice model is well-established to be false. Citation? I hear this a lot, and it seems to stem from a misunderstanding of the word "rational" in this context, which I believe is supposed to mean…

Which service do I use to log in to the account I created when Stellar first launched?
I'd argue intensity is as, if not more, important than just "statistics." A source that tells one lie that starts a war is much worse IMO than one that tells 99 lies about celebrity pets.
What's laughable? You can choose which businesses you want to interact with anytime you want, and if you don't like their policies, choose someone else. While you can "choose" a politician, you get whoever the group…
