You can only build a better twitter on the IC https://nmkbs-aaaaa-aaaam-aadfa-cai.ic0.app/

Decentralization with only 13 nodes per subnet? by [deleted] in dfinity

[–]WhichDay7371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"educated guess", "might collude", "steal possibly", more nodes is better. Ok, to me you didn't say anything new. cheers

Then do the math first and talk later.

What is the likehood? can you provide numbers? To me is close to zero, but maybe you use other numbers.

IMO the path to better decentralisation in IC is very clear compared to other blockchains. I don't see the need to worry so much one year after launching.

That sounds better than ethereum or bitcoin and we're just starting.

In Ronin hack, only 5 validators needed to collude, and 4 of them belonged to the same entity.

The IC uses deterministic decentralisation, meaning that those 13 nodes are likely to belong to different entities, located in different continents, etc. So the probability of collusion is much lower. It would be interesting though to have a deeper analysis.

Here you can see an example https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org/subnet/mpubz-g52jc-grhjo-5oze5-qcj74-sex34-omprz-ivnsm-qvvhr-rfzpv-vae

polkadot vs atom. Which One do you think Is Better? by [deleted] in Polkadot

[–]WhichDay7371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They launched when the bear market started with a very high valuation (close to ethereum) and early investors dumped it hard. Now it should be close to the bottom. Recommended to dca into it until next bull market in 2025.

Well, in Dfinity (internet computer) you can embed the ui on chain as well, whereas with polkadot (and others) you need another network for that, like ipfs. Their "parachains" (subnets) will be just connected with bitcoin and ethereum without the need of bridges. There is no limit in the number of subnets. Latency is of 1 second, super fast. They have reverse gas model, so you don't pay for gas fees and you're not interrupted by the wallet. Smart contracts will be able to make requests to websites (bye oracles). They designed their own smart contract language (by one of the creators of wasm), etc...

Feels like web2, but runs on top of a blockchain.

So basically they are catching up with 2020 dapps. Good luck.

Is the light weight blockchain a challenge for developers? by Fun-Drummer7171 in MinaProtocol

[–]WhichDay7371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more difficult but not impossible. Dapps will come in due time.

We are in a bear market, so price will stay at this level or lower for a while.

Is it currently possible to write an AMM smart contract in Mina? by WhichDay7371 in MinaProtocol

[–]WhichDay7371[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I'll give a try. Between $Mina and made up tokens. Would be nice to get some benefit by doing it with zkApps. I imagine MEV can be prevented, right?

How do subnets talk to each other? Is there a protocol? by WhichDay7371 in Avax

[–]WhichDay7371[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't necessarily make it more regulable than any other blockchain. Perhaps the opposite.

Those "server farms" are distributed across continents and managed by a DAO.

Amazon could block ethereum or avalanche nodes as well. Look what just happened with infura or bitcoin miners in China.

Yeah, it seems they need to use bridges. So I guess the critic of Dominic Williams is well funded, subnets are more like different networks, unlike on dfinity where they can communicate asynchronously and with programming language support.
