Take everything you think you know about crypto and poop it in the toilet. Shout between the stalls to your neighbor to show your support for their struggle. Light a match to cover up the Taco Bell token you bought earlier. Give a congratulatory hoot when you flush and finish. This is my anti-professional crypto channel. I‘m just a a barely sane dude who fell down the cryptocurrency rabbit hole. This channel is my fumbling attempt to communicate myself outside of my own head about my journey in the crypto space.

Good morning! This morning I go over a report by Trail of Bits commissioned by DARPA to look for vulnerabilities in crypto, specifically Bitcoin and Ethereum. A friend of mine brought this Trail of Bits podcast to my attention that talks about this report and the findings that Bitcoin and Ethereum are not as nearly decentralized as their communities claim them to be and go on to state lots of reasons why. I was a bit concerned as the podcast and the article did indeed work on me. However, I went on to find a counter-article by Swan Bitcoin that brought to light the incorrect and misleading claims made by Trail of Bits. I have it all linked below and I will let you decide. But I will ask you, who has the greater motive for crypto to be found incompetent? It ain't the crypto community.
