This is a great table of information. It’s news to me that Tether is based on Ethereum tokens. If Ethereum falls out of favor and offers an appealing 51% attack, or if the proof of stake transition has a vulnerability, would this affect Tether spectacularly and then impact BTC and all other CCs?

Fun idea! But It’s too bad that Kazakhstan’s decision to MITM all HTTPS traffic makes this a nonstarter for actual use

This paragraph in that article is an incomplete sentence that ends hanging. Any idea what it intended to say?

> “Monster” is a term introduced in [Lakatos 1976] for a mathematical construct that introduces inconsistencies and paradoxes. Since the very beginning, monsters have been endemic in foundations. They can lurk long undiscovered. For example, that "theorems are provably computational enumerable" [Euclid approximately 300 BC] is a monster was only discovered after millennia when [Church 1934] used it to identify fundamental
