almost forgot to check here. people are really bullish now lol ... what a yoyo sentiment is.

If BTC $30.5k breaks, it makes sense. There's literally no argument for a bear anymore at that point. Hi-ho silver bull run into the Fed cut in a year or two!

haddockseyes,

If the bull starts several months earlier than expected, does that affect the height of the blowoff top?

Re-posting this from Reddit.

Ladies and gentlemen, we've got a brand new Ethereum execution client, Reth.

Today, we’re excited to announce that Reth is entering its alpha with version 0.1.0 under the permissive Apache/MIT license. We are inviting node operators and users to run nodes and use Reth’s crates to build exciting EVM-centric infrastructure.

Currently it only supports archive sync, but they're working on the other sync modes:

Reth currently only provides archive sync. We intend to provide more granular storage and syncing options in the near future (like full node & snapshots), which you can track on Github. Our ultimate goal is to allow running a node with the minimal storage requirements needed for your needs.

Once it's out of alpha, this will bring our total up to 5 production Ethereum execution clients. Ethereum is the only chain where you can see this kind of diversity, folks. You don't get this kind of treatment with Bitcoin, Cardano or Solana.

Press release: https://www.paradigm.xyz/2023/06/reth-alpha

refugeddit,

Isn't this the client that made the erigon dev (Artem) working on Akula to quit his project? I remember it having some behind the scenes controversy

cryptOwOcurrency,
cryptOwOcurrency avatar

Yes, I believe it is the client that killed Akula. But I didn’t realize that was controversial. I thought the Akula dev gave up just because the new team was better funded and his effort wasn’t needed anymore.

If you find out what the controversy was, I would be curious to know.

basically dev claim code was copy pasted by reth team.
This made him take a long break as a core dev

Some links on newest developments on the Reddit situation:

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman isn’t backing down: our full interview

Okay, hold on, timeout. You go to the App Store, you type in Reddit, you get two options, right? There’s Apollo. You go to one, it’s my business, and you look at our ads, use our products. That’s 95 percent of our iOS users.

Here’s the note Reddit sent to moderators threatening them if they don’t reopen

We are willing to work with you to process a Top Mod Removal request or reorder the mod team to achieve this goal if mods higher up the list are hindering reopening.

Reddit appears to be restoring edited/deleted comments

I can confirm a comment I made in r/vmware has been restored. I typically delete my comments after 24 hours. I have a single comment from 20 days ago that was previously deleted now back on my profile.

kbrot,
kbrot avatar

First, good on the Verge for actually pushing that line of questioning; it's important. I'm no particular fan of Verge reporting but this is legit and should be commended.

Second, spez KEEPS. FUCKING. SAYING. "OUR DATA." And it just makes me want to smack him (via protest). It is OUR -- you and me and content creators' -- data. Not theirs. They pay for infrastructure and indexing and are allowed to eke out a margin of profit by feeding us ads. Totally fine, for me at least. This harvesting of user IP has always been an unspoken truth and accepted thing, but now the exploitation of it and punishment of the owners is way beyond permissible.

Last, I'm seeing rumors they're watermarking content now on test subs? Anyone confirm?

refugeddit,

Fuck them, kinda rage inducing reading that

And it just makes me want to smack him (via protest). It is OUR -- you and me and content creators' -- data. Not theirs

This is why I've deleted my thousands of posts and comments before leaving Reddit at the start of the blackout. I didn't just leave quietly, I reclaimed ownership of my data by leaving with it.

I encourage everyone to do the same - even if you keep contributing or lurking on Reddit, at least nuke your old content (using tools such as redact.dev). This will hurt Reddit far more - at least until they turn off the API at the end of the month, and you are no longer able to bulk delete.

It will also reduce the risk of getting doxxed or targeted by increasingly automated and sophisticated attacks that can infer a lot about you based on your past posts.

Morning! Early rollover for the daily today because I'm up and I'm testing sign-ins from other kbin instances. Gentlemen, announce yourselves!

I tried connecting to ethfinance from discuss.tchncs.de, it could find the community and loaded the description, but the posts / comments aren't there yet. It seems this federation thing is very variable between the instances

kbrot,
kbrot avatar

Same issue with fedia.io, it found the magazine but did not bring over any posts. Meanwhile readit.buzz was instantaneous.

newtosh,
newtosh avatar

Yeah, as soon as two severs (and two software-stacks) are involved, there's more things that can go wrong. In theory, kbin could also pull posts from Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc - but I expect a multitude of problems.

As for the federation issue you're mentioning: I could imagine it's still related to server overload. 🤷‍♂️

kbrot,

Hello my name is kbrot. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

I'm already dead inside from the price action.

refugeddit,

wait, there is 2 kbrots, what

We're gonna try and trick our divorced parents to get back together by switching places. I saw it in a documentary.

kbrot,

Also this is what m/ethfinance looks like from readit.buzz

Gentlemen, announce yourselves!

haddockseyes, in Daily General Discussion - June 14, 2023

Two more rate hikes coming apparently?

kbrot,
kbrot avatar

Yep but did you get the far more important comment?

"No rate cuts for two years". Which sets up my (admittedly) distant option 2 as now the primary option... one final bull market before the secular bear, and the preservation of the ridiculous 4yr cycle for better or worse.

2023 is confirmed as a 2019 building year. 2024 can be the fakeout to breakout 2020. 2025 (with rate cuts at some point) as the parabolic blowoff 2021.

haddockseyes,

Hmm, I just read that the dot plot predicts a drop to 4.6% in 2024?

kbrot,
kbrot avatar

Yeah there's a little leeway. From the announcement of the cut, to the execution, to the final rollover there's a warning period. 2008 was about a four month period to begin easing out of positions and prepare for the drop. It also had two "humps" to the cut cycle. The markets topped for good in between them.

Chromes, in Daily General Discussion - June 14, 2023

I feel a little silly double-posting on here and Reddit, but I don't want this to die just because we all default back to reddit, but I also don't want to give up entirely on reddit till more people come here. So apologies for this:

Staking stupid question of the day: Now that my validator seems to be working and I'm in the queue, I still have about 45 days till I start actually validating. Can I turn off my validator for the next couple weeks just so I don't have it running for a month and a half doing nothing more than syncing?

theETHmeister, in Daily General Discussion - June 13, 2023

It's a little slow and I'm getting used to the format but this place is great! Viva ethfinance

cryptOwOcurrency,

Unlike centralized social media, the fediverse only gets better over time because the incentives are aligned. We're basically using the beta version of the experience!

Notice that this place actually has a properly functioning mobile-optimized website. We have the technology!
