why are we debating ai slop from a [dude](https://www.coindesk.com/author/omkar-godbole) who wrote about XRP in the last 2 of 4 articles?


I created a bunch of Unicode tools during development of ENSIP-15 for ENS (Ethereum Name Service)

oh look, another highly-compressible, hn circle jerk about the "crypto" boogeyman

tbh, i'm always impressed by no-coiner and armchair bitcoiner comments -- it's like listening to a straight-edge discuss psychedelics -- how can you comment on a space you *clearly* don't understand?


>SEC has already provided clarity on crypto

oof, so...is Ether a security?

Is this tweet an exchange? https://twitter.com/hoffmang/status/1515797969802436608


> I hope this idea catches on

This already exists with Ethereum Name Service (ENS) https://ens.domains and Sign-in With Ethereum.


I have one of those. When everyone was changing their Twitter (display) names to *.eth I thought there might be a chance Twitter would use ENS for domain validated identities, so I grabbed one that matches a good .com I own.

The ENS stuff is cool, but I hope it doesn’t catch on unless they come up with a way to coexist with ICANN. I think multiple DNS roots would be a net negative no matter what.


ENS has DNS import via TXT Record verification proof, so the entire DNS tree can coexist in ENS trustlessly as long as future ENS-only TLDs are chosen wisely (seems simple: just use 0x80+ Unicode.) For example, try resolving my domain, "raffy.antistupid.com" in ENS.

I believe, the ENS registry only contains "eth" as an rogue node (also "[0-9a-f]{40}.addr.reverse" is used for wallet names). Recently, ".art" started offering tokenized names, where you get both DNS and ENS.


I have tool which lets you scroll through all characters in a large document. It also shows names, scripts, and IDNA-like status.

Very nice work!

Just noting that the ".link" "check" link on https://adraffy.github.io/ens-normalize.js/test/resolver.htm... isn't working. Unclear is that is a problem with my domain or with .link


>and also a reasonably good explanation of why, at least in my opinion, crypto is still completely non-viable as a real medium of exchange

I understand HN is a shit-on-crypto echo chamber but it's naive to think crypto is just settlement.

Settlement is simply a low-level primitive. With smart contracts, you can build whatever mechanism you want before making something final. Multisig, clawbacks, timed-delays, time-locks, escrow, recovery wallets, etc.
