The wildest thing is Tether’s growth here… Tron has benefited greatly too

The world’s appetite for Eurodollars is insatiable

Really appreciate your posts here

I think that's a temporary phase while liquidity + more supply of goods and services migrate onchain

But I hear you on the concerns. What are the alternatives you're exploring?

Any thoughts on using USDC / other stablecoins?

Ah gotcha

But if both are built / run by the same PBC, why not blend the PDS authentication into the mobile app to simplify it for users?

It feels like an arbitrary technical boundary otherwise and may confuse non-technical users

Thanks for explaining all
This btw!

No worries — hard to discern earnestness on anon social media

So in this example, since I’m using the default PDS (bsky.social), it sends me to that login page?

Wonder why it doesn’t open this app and ask me if I want to give the requesting app oauth

I don’t fully understand how Bluesky / ATproto work and am still learning

If I don’t self host, where is my “web based login page” that you mentioned? OAuth would be the ideal sign in process

Probably because most users aren’t technical or willing enough to self host a PDS?

Ty!

How about videos of the talks?

Bro is still on dial up

You're right, but conflating 2 things:
- most people on FC care about tokens from a perspective of wanting to participate in economies
- not as many people care about blockchain culture -- this is still more dominant on CT

But if you dislike to chains + tokens, I can understand wanting to be here

"our natural reflection of what people are interested in"
"their echo chamber"

I don't understand?

Crypto is a tool. The barrier to entry to FC is not the ideology, it's the usage of crypto tools (which tbf are still clunky)

I think all people will become "crypto people" over time, so it has the great potential to contain multitudes -- more so than being a liberal bastion

I'm trying, but the culture of a place leaves a first impression

You don't just immediately find the subcultures

And being blasted with politics + emotion combined makes it less desirable to look deeper (hence the "cultish" description)

That's fair -- there's less breadth on FC. Not denying that

But my default bsky feed is:
- cope about the US election
- anger about the cabinet nominations
- dog photos while joking about being depressed

I also don't care for political content -- but I can't avoid it here

yeah me too, but I want to find other crypto folks that may not be active on FC
