I first learned about Kimo Williams from a recent Hacker news post by Derek Silvers. I'm looking forward to reading this.

Kimo seams like an inspiring guy to be around.

I got to this exactly through Derek - although from a blog post or podcast from a few years ago.


Thanks for introducing a new (to me) term, i.e BANANAS. Upon searching i discovered a few others:

NIABY: Opposition to certain developments as inappropriate anywhere in the world is characterised by the acronym NIABY ("Not In Anyone's Backyard"). The building of nuclear power plants, for example, is often subject to NIABY concerns.

NAMBI: ("Not Against My Business or Industry") is used as a label for any business concern that expresses umbrage with actions or policy that threaten that business, whereby they are believed to be complaining about the principle of the action or policy only for their interests alone and not for all similar business concerns who would equally suffer from the actions or policies.

BANANA: is an acronym for "Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anything" (or "Anyone").The term is most often used to criticize the ongoing opposition of certain advocacy groups to land development. The apparent opposition of some activists to every instance of proposed development suggests that they seek a complete absence of new growth.

NOPE: (Not On Planet Earth)To leave an uncomfortable situation, usually quickly.

LULU: Locally Unwanted/Undesirable Land Use planning.

NOTE: Not Over There Either (meaning is same NIMBY)


hah! wow, i had no idea about the others

thanks for digging


The Rarible exchange contract supports all kinds of external royalty interfaces, among them two that Rarible defined themselves, being an early player in the NFT space:

https://hackernoon.com/enabling-nft-royalties-with-eip-2981

ERC721, 1155 & 2981 together act as a toolkit for the encoding of royalty administration.

For example, if an NFT collection owner only implemented one of Rarible’s royalty distribution schemes mentioned above, another marketplace that’s not aware of that interface can simply call the common registry’s getRoyaltyView function. It tries to query all known royalty interfaces on the token contract and translates any response to a commonly useable result.

Collection owners who haven’t put any royalty signaling scheme into their contract can deploy an extended “override” contract and register it with the common registry. This registration method will ensure that only collection owners (identified by the owner public member) can call it

```function royaltyInfo(uint256 _tokenId, uint256 _salePrice) external view returns (address receiver, uint256 royaltyAmount);```

The interface also completely works off-chain, so marketplaces that trade assets on alternative infrastructure can still query the creator fee without knowing anything else besides the interface signature of the EIP-2981 method.

PaymentSplitters: Sending NFT Royalties To More Than One Receiver.

Open Zeppelin's PaymentSplitter primitive allows setting up individual split contracts that keep funds safe until their payees claim them, and their receive function requires the bare minimum of gas to run. NFT collection builders can create an inline PaymentSplitter containing the wanted list of beneficiaries and their respective share amounts and let their EIP-2981 implementation yield the address of that split contract.


Great blog post! "Plato didn't write his dialogues on Microsoft Word, and neither should you".



When i come to the page and let my eyes naturally scan through, the phrase Dead Simple sticks out, which is probably not a great catch phrase for this app. It'd be cool if instead, a GIF showing the user experience led me right into trying it out with the "enter address here" section.

Minimal theme w/ Dataview card layout is awesome! I'm just digging into it, but it does make the queries more accessible. Thanks!


There have been massive advancements in the use of various options, futures and other structured products specifically designed to increase optionality for Bitcoin miners to weather bear markets without closing up shop.

This is definitely a proving ground and only those mining operations with the most resilient strategies will survive.

Many will continue to thrive.

The future outlook on the crypto markets enters a new era towards the end of this year.

Fidelity is introducing cryptocurrency investment services to all of its 401K investors, every company 401k, across the $2.4 trillion in 401(k) assets they represent (in 2020, or more than a third of the market at the time).

They will allow individuals to allocate up to 20% of their portfolio to cryptocurrency, for those who participate.


And you've brought me back to a childhood memory of my older brother, age 13 with a big smile on his face, brought me into the closet where he had a portable cassette player and a newly acquired copy of Raw, and we listened to it and had our vocabulary suddenly expanded to a new level.


Lol, the level of secrecy we had back in those days, no two-way headphones, no phones, just had to scurry into corners to do the things our parents would say are bad, even though they did them just in their own scurried away corners. Thank you for sharing this story :-D


I was about that age when I discovered one of my Dad's records from Bill Cosby.

I had never considered that "Damnit" and "Jesus Christ" could be misconstrued as the names of two children.

I almost passed out laughing so hard at that album.

Sometime later, I discovered his Iron Butterfly album, which also changed my world.
