Does a anyone know where I can study Peepeth source code? Eager to learn more about it if available.
Contracts are proprietary until Etherscan finishes reviewing them.

Great for @pete great for #Toshi. Status will go mainnet eventually and then there will be two well resourced teams. With @vikmeup at #Trust keeping them on their toes.
Hopefully Trust keeps up with the competition. I'd hate to see Coinbase have a monopoly in yet another area of cryptocurrency.

Less posts than users? I’m over 900 peeps now. I think Peepeth came along at the right time. Low gas currently, multiple mobile dApp browsers offering good experience. Neither was true a few months ago.
Cipher devs got hired by Coinbase to work on Toshi, so there's practically one less DApp browser out there.
How long has this been a thing?

@Bryce @BradyDale I’m not thinking of violating immutability. What about solutions where for example a key to decrypt a given person’s private data on the #blockchain is destroyed? Blockchain remains immutable, but “right to be forgotten” remains Just an example. @peeplosophy
If the data is forgotten, then the entire point of having a ledger is moot, irregardless of how that data is forgotten. I don't think you understand the point of the ledger.

All hail Greedo.

Repeep if you think all humans deserve economic freedom. Keep scrolling if you hate babies.
This joke isn't even accurate, since Ver's point was that the lack of economic freedom kills babies. Albeit, it was a bit silly of him to pull an emotional argument out of nowhere, and I found it hilarious how Samson Mow covers his face in disbelief when Ver said that at Deconomy

If we take the volume of a Campbell's soup can to be 95.4cm^3, and the increments to be 10% each time, it's only going to be summer 2038 before you've buried an Empire State Building's worth of soup cans. I'd like to invest.

Replying to @tomnash (0x9f3ae1d603320980bd7fd79eb6df981d8a2a0e24)
So you have 3000 buried, is that 1500 slightly larger cans and 1500 regulation sized, or are we dealing with some sort of pyramid structure where two regulation sized cans fit into a slightly larger can and so on?
I've got 3000 regularly sized cans buried, and I drive out every month with 3000 incrementally larger cans to put the last batch of cans in, before the cans containing the regularly sized cans expires. And the cycle continues.
Replying to @john (0x1f7cc31bc8c084c4784094a05e14a1558093eae4)
Was thinking about driving out to CA this summer for about a month to either San Fran or LA. Anyone have suggestions for where I can get an affordable Airbnb for the month? Possibly areas outside the cities, but a close enough drive? Any help would be appreciated!
I don't have any specific suggestions, but you might want to check out cryptocribs.com, which is basically the crypto equivalent of Airbnb.
Replying to @shaddox (0xb912363361195f62c62787af076d6356170929a1)
Campbell's soup cans are perishable tho
Not if you store them in slightly larger Campbell's soup cans.
Replying to @shaddox (0xb912363361195f62c62787af076d6356170929a1)
This blockchain stuff is a total scam. Cryptocurrencies have no inherent value. A useful currency needs to have inherent value, like gold, fiat currency, or nonperishables like paintings of Campbell's soup cans.
Campbell's soup cans are the only real store of value, which is why I've got 3000 of them buried somewhere in the New Mexican desert.

By centralization do you mean the network hubs? That's definitely a concern, and I'm interested to see how it all ends up playing out. Are there any network stats available yet?
Yes, I am referring to hubs. Since these entities could easily be shut down by governments, they would have to abide by KYC/AML laws to operate. LN strips away a coins censorship resistance.
I believe there were a few visualizations people made, but I don't know about accuracy.

Pick one. Worse for BTC holders because nonody'll be buying/using BTC. Worse for the world because if LN is adopted worldwide, we're stuck using a centralized payment network. But at least we don't have to pay horrible BTC on-chain fees.
*nobody'll

So I don't know much about bitcoin nor the blockchain. I know a little. Maybe enough to pretend to be knowledgeable in passing conversation. I know even less about Ethereum. Can you guys share some (in your opinion) helpful reading lists? Maybe there's a tip in it for u #balling
Go to book for a lot of people (me included) is Mastering Bitcoin, which explains the basics of blockchain, as well as complex topics. If you just want to get the basics of blockchain down, read the beginning of that book. The same author is also working on Mastering Ethereum.

we'll probably disagree here but i think collectivism is good esp if it's transparent innovations that are core to society but don't work as private companies (facebook) should be nationalized and decentralized imo non-profit system is fragile. don't want 2 rely on donors
Interesting viewpoint. I may not agree with it, but I see where you're coming from.

Enjoy the tip. Just pressing random buttons.
You're really good at pressing random buttons.

But that still doesn't solve the GDPR issue. There has to be a way to permanently delete things for the purpose of privacy without succumbing to political censorship. Maybe a moderation group picked by lottery that validates that it's embarrasing, not political.
Easy; just get rid of the government instead of your post ;)

Perhaps a decentralized social media company could have you pay every month or so to use their platform, but most of the cost actually goes towards gas.
Or rather have a premium subscription which cost are used to subsidize the gas cost of all users.
Replying to @evanstucker (0xca5c66933149d95fba1050aaf7046b08a7f28ae5)
Yeah, something... I think government is the wrong direction. A non-profit would be better, but still probably too centralized. It needs to be run by a smart contract that accepts donations and auto-scales the donation cap based on the actual gas cost...

Government is definitely the wrong direction. A government subsidizing gas cost = the taxpayer subsidizing gas cost. Also, a system reliant on non-profits sounds a bit fragile to me.

Haha, I think the phrase "it's a feature, not a bug" is a bug. And I'd argue that flagging things to censor them is also a bug. I guess since it's all in IPFS, it's never really deleted... and that's gonna pose some challenges for public acceptance and GDPR compliance.
Yeah, I see your point. I think censorship on front-ends will always be problematic, for as long as front-ends are centralized, but at least I could make my own front-end for peepeth if I didn't agree with peepeth.com's policy.
Replying to @ian (0x1b6a6072c8eac4ec04b171e9e665786a60d4925f)
yup. a contract autosigner needs to be written ASAP. dapps need to feel like normal apps.
Reminds me of an ERC standard (823?) in development, that would allow you to sign up for subscription services without having to manually approve the regularly occurring transaction.
Replying to @Alec (0x23677376bc1b7f48970b83a7ce0d0367395eac9e)
The fact that it can't be deleted is a feature, not a bug. It may take some time to propagate on the blockchain, but users see it on the front-end right away. The cost is debatable, but I personally don't see it as a problem since you can choose when to send a batch below 15 TX
Also, you can "delete" post on the front end (or rather a moderator can, if it is reported for breaking any rules), but yes, people could use the blockchain as an archive.
Replying to @evanstucker (0xca5c66933149d95fba1050aaf7046b08a7f28ae5)
Full disclosure: this new, exciting future isn't 100% free, which irks me. A post on Peepeth costs about one penny, can take a couple hours to propagate, and can't be deleted. I feel like blockchain isn't quite the right solution for a Twitter clone, but it's still better...

"The service uses a blockchain to timestamp submissions of each original photograph from a user with a real-name identity and store data associated with the images on a distributed network." https://www.coindesk.com/search-giant-baidu-unveils-blockchain-stock-photo-platform
Yeah, that sounds about right. You could tell who stole who's work just by checking who published it first.

@alec Take everything I say with a grain of salt. Maybe @vikmeup can chime in on this.
Never mind, found the private key by importing my seed phrase into MyEtherWallet.
Replying to @balresch (0xd6d48727d8835b73f8dc511a5baaf3445a6f65c9)
#Trust can only import single private keys right now, but the mnemonic phrase you mention is tied to a seed of a HD wallet, which is used to create many private keys in a deterministic fashion. Can you export a single private key with Toshi? Haven't used it myself so far.
I wasn't able to find the private key associated with the mnemonic phrase, unfortunately. I don't think Toshi has the option.
Anybody know how to import a Toshi-generated wallet into Trust Wallet? Trust Wallet doesn't seem to have a seed phrase option for importing wallets...

He is right on that. Not even my ./hashtag error could be deleted/modified. Just a reminder to proofread, and not work dumb hours, laying down with one eye open and trying to peep your last thoughts. 😁
Don't drink and peep.
Replying to @CallMeGwei (0x285bc660aa42b8effc6c60357cd4d8ca072be625)
This guy has *vision* - do you buidl, too? That would make alt front-end development, uh, a little complicated, huh? Thousand of community flags to decide which kind of flagged peep should be shown where and to whom... *brain freeze*. Let me beta test! :)
"Peepit" may best be implemented as a totally separate platform with its own back-end.

How can we keep the small community feel as the number of peepers grows? At the least, good (decentralized) moderation tools are a requirement
The community feel will diminish as members without technical/crypto interest and background join (not to say that these people shouldn't be welcomed). This is why I love Reddit's method of separating the populace into many small and large communities with similar interest.
Replying to @dean (0xddf4da877d64c694ac69175feedb19a2591f7d7f)
I'm excited to see the first peepeth frontend fork with it's own whitelisting. Would be good to have multiple sites provide multiple ways to access the network
That actually sounds really cool. I hadn't thought about that aspect of things too much.
Replying to @spengrah (0x26521ede6e1796c6faee57cbc68a178e78d8e23e)
Also thinking about how my behavior on peepeth is totally different than on twitter, where I lurk much much more. I wonder if that will change as the number of peeps grows out of this early small-community stage...
My behavior is similar. For me, Twitter has become more of a screeching match within crypto communities, so it's a lot harder to have meaningful discussion. Also, it's a lot more fun to write to a blockchain that just a centralized database ;)
Replying to @Xelion (0x7f4d762fa48d170a643337b49a50bc744c75bee0)
According to a friend working with IOTA, they are working on a new consensus model similar to what Swirlds hashgraph has achieved. But it's complicated to make an implementation without breaching Swirlds's patent.
IOTAs current consensus model is a mess. The very first IOTA transaction I made was confirmed on the node my desktop wallet was using, then showed up like a day later as unconfirmed when that node eventually went down. Not to mention you have to rebroadcasts TXs manually often.

This is pretty awesome - Blockchain social networks are the future - Facebook and Twitter will not own our social media - we the people will own our own decentralized social media.
Social example of crypto-anarchy.
