CRYPTOPIA: Bitcoin, Blockchains and The Future of the Internet - FULL DOCUMENTARY | Torsten Hoffmann
Cryptopia: Bitcoin, Blockchains and the Future of the Internet takes a deep dive into the crypto ecosystem and blockchain technology to discover the good, the bad and the ugly of this controversial industry, its major narratives, conflicts and the major players behind it. Can we really trust them to build this trustless cyber utopia or are their projects just as unfairly distributed and easily manipulated as our current financial systems and tech platforms?

Three's a crowd
For a prompt by @madmaxou. This is a four part series. First Part, Second Part, Fourth Part
This Chapter contains: Hospitals, amnesia, siblingly saddy sad.
Disclamer: I am no professional in writing OSDD. Please do not use my fanfic to shape your views on the real world.
The newbie had kept insisting his name was Drew until the hospital staff started using that name. Much to the annoyance of Al and Fendi. Worse, he was rejecting any visits from anyone from work. Especially Lucy. 
They’d located his family, well Flora. She was the only one not off on an adventure in America. Drew said he’d talk to her. That she could help him. 
“Uhm, last time I saw you your name wasn’t Drew though. Even when we first met.”
“No, I'm like Alfendi’s guard, I protect him. When people turn nasty I protect him and then I leave. I’m out now so I need to protect him but I don’t know where the danger is!”
“Am I the danger?” Flora asks.
“No! You’re my sister and my friend! You’re my only friend right now.”
Flora smiles at him, so very brightly, “That’s so nice of you! So you want me to help you find the danger?”
“Yes!” 
“Oh, okay,” she folds her hands in her lap, “look Alfendi hasn’t spoken to me in a while I don’t know a lot.”
I told you we should have written. Al sighs, we really messed this up.
Oh right, after everyone turned their backs on us we should have written! It was her job to contact us!
They both pause for a second. 
I think we forgot to send her a christmas card before Forbodium and then after, when we got it, we never wrote back because I was scared she’d react like everyone else.  Al admits.
So like Hershal Layton we forgot her.
Yeah.
Fendi began making anguished noises, noises Drew was either ignoring or completely oblivious to. 
Flora finished summarising what she knew about him being shunned and the mystery room, “I tried writing but you never wrote back, I assumed you were busy. I didn't know there were more than one of you.”
“Do you think there’s someone else like me?” Drew leans forward, “someone who isn’t Alfendi? Someone who helps him like I do?”
“Yeah! Maybe. I really don’t know.”
“I’m sorry I, well he, never responded to your letters.”
“No it’s fine I heard some stuff from Katrielle. Lucy sent her letters.”
“Katrielle is my sister and Lucy is my coworker.”
“Could you talk to Lucy?”
“No she’s my coworker, last time I trusted one of those he shot me.”
Ohhh so that’s where Forbodium went. Fendi interjects.
Wait, the memories we’re missing go somewhere? Fendi, I don’t remember before Hershal.
I do, not all of it but I do. We’re screwed.
“I think he was using me for something, I don’t fully know it’s all foggy but I can’t trust her.”
Flora’s silent for a full minute, “I’ll talk to her, I’ll talk to all your coworkers and I’ll make sure none of them hurt you.”
“No! It could be dangerous. I may have to protect Alfendi but I want to protect you too!”
“But I’m older.”
“You buffoon, being older means nothing, I’m stronger.”
Flora smirks slightly, “alright! I’ll arm wrestle you for it.”
“Arm skills don’t work well against a knife, or a gun.”
“You’re just worried I’ll win,” she teases.
Drew couldn’t help but smile, “fine, you’re on.”
Flora won, of course she won, in her spare time she went on secret adventures. Ones that involved a lot of climbing and Alfendi/Drew had been stabbed.
“Please, be careful. They’re dangerous! You’re the only person I can trust. I can’t do this alone!”
Flora smiled but there was something sad in her eyes, “okay before I leave how about a story.”
He snorts, “I’m not a kid.”
“Do you know how the Professor adopted me?”
“No.”
Flora sat on the bed, with her brother, giving him a soft smile she began, “well my father was a great inventor and he knew my mum was going to die. So he tried to make her into a robot, in fact he made a whole village of robots just to look after me. I grew up around clockwork people, all obsessed with puzzles.”
“Like Hershel.”
“That’s probably why he came, yes,” she chuckled, “but he didn't know they were clockwork, no one did. Now, I know it’s different, very different from your childhood,” she reaches out for his hand and gives it a squeeze, “but I grew up around people I could trust and it’s a good thing. I trust the people around me.”
“No! You don’t understand they tried to kill me!”
“I don’t understand, not really but I have been kidnapped, twice. I know you cant trust everyone Drew but you know something? Most of the time you can. Don’t go following anyone into a dark alleyway and people aren’t always what they seem but if I hadn’t trusted Luke and the Professor I wouldn't be here. If we hadn't trusted you when-”
“Don’t talk about it,” his voice was stern, “please, don’t talk about when I was adopted.”
“Okay, I’m just saying, trusting you is the best thing we could have done and now, I still trust people. I trust them all the time. I trust them not to run me over when I cross the road, I trust them not to steal my luggage when I get on the train and leave it in the baggage area.”
“That’s different! There are witnesses.”
Flora holds back a chuckle, he was deadly serious after all, “so I’ll talk to them near witnesses.”
“I can't trust your judgement now, you’re too trusting.”
“We can both talk to them near witnesses.”
“What if they follow me back? What if they wait until there are no witnesses? Justin did.”
Flora hesitates, “Drew, you’re scared. Please, you have to trust someone or you’ll be like this forever. I’ll protect you, can you trust that?”
“Yes, but I’m telling you, one of them is out to get me! Just like Justin was! I know he isn’t the only one!”

Printing Money Creates TRUST in Society? 🧐🤡
Stupidity should be called out for what it is. What this clown is saying makes absolutely no sense.
A game that cannot be cheated (Bitcoin) REQUIRES you to be honest and to play according to the rules, creating trust within society. A game that can be cheated (fiat) WILL BE cheated, lies will be made up to justify the cheating, rules will be bent, creating distrust within society.
“The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that's required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust.”
― Satoshi Nakamoto
“Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others. The same applies when you are stupid.” ― Ricky Gervais

Naofumi being a witch before he was sommoned
YES, finally an excuse to share my Horror-ish Witch Naofumi AU (+ TheRuFumi) that's been hiding away on my discord!
Naofumi is a With without a cove, living on his own in a haunted and cursed forest where most others would quickly be driven mad or die, unless they take drastic measures.
Naofumi did so. He's too curious and hungry for knowledge for his and everyone else's good, that he was cast out for how little care of the consequences of practicing the cursed and forbidden crafts.
So, he went to the only place that could only assist and further his research on the forbidden crafts. If he learned more, maybe people would properly know why they were forbidden crafts, and maybe he could prevent many of the accidents that could happen when doing the crafts without the full knowledge.
Good thing he's not usually afraid of committing various horrors for his experiments and research.
Hell, two of the experiments that probably should've killed him ended with something vastly different.
He now has a demonic girlfriend living in his shadow, and an eldritch horror boyfriend living inside his body, whose real form is that of a cloud of pure smokey fog of darkness dripping with blood, and countless crimson red eyes.
Some of the other experiments didn't have the same positive results, though.
The skin of his hands are now stained a permanent inky black for trying to deal with Fae and Octafolk blood at the same time for a potion. His eyes will forever cry tears of pure ink, already having left prominent black marks on his face from the first time when his eyes stung like a thousand fires, for trying to mix merfolk's pearl tears with the scales of an undead dragon. His whole left leg, and left arm up to the elbow is pure wood and plants, though they function like normal human limbs, for trying to enchant the remains of a dryad with the use of the fur of a celestial fox's tail and a zombie's flesh. The plant parts withers and becomes black at his wrist. And, he has little nubs of premature horns on the sides of his head, hidden by his hair, for trying to perform magic on the horns of a haunted and cursed ram. His skin is littered with shatter-like lines shifting between dark gray and silver, from when he summoned L'Arc and Therese.
However, his dear L'Arc and Therese always try to assist and provide what they can for his experiments, and take away any residual darkness from the experiments, strengthening them, and in exchange lengthen and share their life force with Naofumi, letting him live much longer than the average human.
———
Being summoned to another world was not what Naofumi expected to happen when he'd gone on one of his rare outings outside the forest. He'd been wanting new books to fill how new shelves for a while, and had gone to a faraway bookstore to look.
He's picked up a book with a peculiar sense of magic around it, and had a few moments appeared in a different place, books completely gone from his grasp, standing inside a magic circle with three other people, surrounded by mages in identical robes.
And, there was a Shield stuck to his arm.
Before Therese and L'Arc could come out, Naofumi rubbed his knuckled across the knobs of his lower spine, through his clothes, a signal to both of them to stay hidden, and that he's alright.
As he followed the other three who'd been summoned alongside him, all wearing different and strange clothing, and the head mage, he tried to examine the Shield on his arm. Focusing on it, he could feel immense, different powers coming from it. Interesting.
As they arrived in the throne room, Naofumi noticed the scornful, distasteful, and trustless snarls and glares sent only his way. He was now glad he'd chosen to wear his veiled hat and gloves. If they already disliked him just from being there, he wasn't about to give the more reasons to hate him.
Instead of outright planning with L'Arc and Therese, Naofumi met with them in his dreams, where Therese showed that she'd managed to keep the book that summoned Naofumi, for him to read through and study.
Later, Naofumi would discover that while his affinity for magic is about the same as before, his skills and affinity for potions and enchantments have become drastically higher, and he's ready to take full advantage.
———
After the whole thing at the castle, and turning down any party members, Naofumi wanders into the forest, and the first thing he does is start finding and comparing the herbs and plants in the book he bought with the ones he finds in the forest, and keeping as many as he can. He gets even more excited when he learns of the Plant Shield Series, which lets him grow and level up the plants with magic.
So excited, that he doesn't notice the balloon monster clinging to him until L'Arc's distorted voice whispers it inside his ear.
Inconspicuously, he feeds them to his shadow, and discovers that L'Arc and Therese are both defaulted to his party members, letting him gain the EXP they do as well. Seems like he doesn't even need to hire party members anyway.
——
The next morning, he's dragged to the castle and his hood ripped off, leaving him for everyone to see. They stare is shock and horror at his face and hands, the only parts revealed.
He's called a monster, thrown around, and accused of things he did not commit.
He may delve in the dark and forbidden, the dead and haunted, but he does have morals, alright? Even he wouldn't take anyone against their will, plus, L'Arc and Therese can satisfy his needs in ways no human or demi-human ever could.
——
He ignores the stares and glares as he walks the streets, face hidden by his veiled hat once again.
In the evening, Naofumi goes walking through the dark streets, having changed into a sleeve-less cloak with a large hood and a high collar to conceal his face.
He follows the feeling of darkness and despair, and ends up in a slave tent filled with people with various degrees of different animal features, some more human- or beast-looking.
In the end, he leaves the tent with directions and advice for the best dark magic and curse masters and sellers, and a sick slave in tow.
With a few simple potions, of which Naofumi knows the recipes back to front now, Raphtalia is fully healed. The first few days, they don't converse much, other than Naofumi getting gear, clothes, and food for Raphtalia, and holding her when her night terrors appear. A simple spell to ward off nightmares seem to help a bit.
Then, Naofumi tells her he would like for her to help him as the Shield Hero. If she doesn't want to, she doesn't have to, and he will set her free. But, if she wishes to, he will teach and protect her from whatever may wish to harm them. But, she must become prepared for many horrors ahead.
In the end, she accepts, and that evening by the fire is spent teaching Raphtalia to read and recognize a few regular plants.
As they progress, Naofumi teaches her more and more, and she tries to soak the knowledge like a sponge, though sometimes she doesn't understand.
After the fight with the dog monster in the mines, where Naofumi let Therese take down the monster with one swipe of her jewelled hand, Naofumi decides to introduce Raphtalia to his two otherworldly lovers.
Therese easily slithers out of his shadow, merging from the darkness into her beautiful and horrifying form of flesh and jewels mixed together into her being, strong and indestructible, and yet beautiful and lovely.
Naofumi turns his back to Raphtalia as L'Arc's form crawls its way up his body and through his throat, out his mouth, accompanied by black goo (Naofumi has yet to identify it as anything by to help L'Arc leave his body) as a few ink tears escape his eyes, drawing the lines on his face darker again. Once he's finally out, L'Arc dons his human forms, and Therese as well. Though, there's simply still something distinctly non-human about them.
Raphtalia is terrified at first, hiding beneath his cloak, before he explain them to her, that they're there bonded to him, to keep him and those under him safe at all costs. Slowly, she warms up to them, but she'll never get used to how L'Arc leaves and enters Naofumi's body through his mouth.
She isn't allowed to see their real forms, as it would simply be too much for any mortal not bonded to them to comprehend. She would go mad if she saw them.
Later, when they get Filo (before the first wave, Naofumi always wanted a familiar), she is much less scared, and keep talking about how they have some 'Funny Energy' around them, that she thinks tickles when she gets close.
As they fight the first Wave, Naofumi lets L'Arc and Therese pose as his party members to help fight. They all gain many levels then.
———
At some point, Naofuim also curses Myne and the King with some minor inconvenience curses, that to nobility and royalty have been known to absolutely humiliate them.
———
When meeting and fighting Glass, she's wary of the Shield Hero calling himself a Witch. In her world, witches are known to make any demi-human they deem useful their slave.
But, Naofumi shuts that down, telling her that he doesn't commit any kind of bonding or binding without the other party's consent.
With their powers and warped morals, the two some to respect each other, even when fighting to kill.
———
When Naofumi finally gets his revenge, the trial again Myne and the King, when they're forced to kneel before him in front of countless people, Bitch is forced to do so by her slave crest. But, Trash refuses to kneel before someone who won't even show his face. He will not kneel unless he's sure that he's kneeling for the actual Shield Hero and not some imposter.
Before the Queen can shout again, Naofumi rips off his veiled hat, leaving his face bare for everyone to see the black tear lines running down his cheeks, and the gray and silver crack crawling up from his neck.
"How do you know that I'm the Shield Hero, even after seeing my face? The only people I've shown my real face to before today, is my party." Naofumi says
He was getting tired of wearing that hat everywhere he went with a risk of seeing people.
He does not mind if these people fear him now. If they didn't already, they really should've.
———
When fighting against Kyo, Naofumi becomes interested in the book his holding, and silently asks Therese to see if she get can it. No one notices when a part of Naofumi's shadow slithers away along the edges of the room to merge with Kyo's.
Moments later, Therese comes up behind Kyo, holding him stuck as she tries getting the book, but it appears to be stuck to him.
After some fighting, Kyo manages to escape, and Naofumi and his party manages to hurry and follow after him and Glass.
Though somehow, whatever Kyo does, it makes Naofumi forcefully get separated from L'Arc and Therese, who both end up with Glass, while Naofumi finds Kizuna.

The Philosophy Behind Bitcoin
Tumblr media
Introduction
In the world of finance, few innovations have sparked as much intrigue and debate as Bitcoin. But beyond its role as a digital currency, Bitcoin embodies a profound philosophy that challenges traditional financial systems and proposes a new paradigm for economic freedom. Understanding the philosophy behind Bitcoin is essential to grasp its potential impact on our world.
The Origins of Bitcoin
In 2008, amid the global financial crisis, a mysterious figure known as Satoshi Nakamoto published the Bitcoin whitepaper. This document outlined a revolutionary idea: a decentralized digital currency that operates without the need for a central authority. The financial turmoil of the time, characterized by bank failures and government bailouts, underscored the need for a system that could function independently of traditional financial institutions.
Core Philosophical Principles
Decentralization-Decentralization lies at the heart of Bitcoin’s philosophy. Unlike traditional financial systems that rely on centralized authorities such as banks and governments, Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network of computers (nodes). Each node maintains a copy of the blockchain, Bitcoin's public ledger, ensuring that no single entity has control over the entire network. This decentralization is crucial for maintaining the integrity and security of the system, as it prevents any one party from manipulating the currency or its underlying data.
Trustlessness-Bitcoin's trustless nature is another fundamental principle. In traditional financial systems, trust is placed in intermediaries like banks and payment processors to facilitate transactions. Bitcoin eliminates the need for these intermediaries by using blockchain technology, where transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography. This system ensures that transactions are secure and reliable without requiring trust in any third party.
Transparency-The transparency of Bitcoin’s blockchain is a key philosophical aspect. Every transaction that has ever occurred on the Bitcoin network is recorded on the blockchain, which is publicly accessible. This transparency allows anyone to verify transactions and ensures accountability. However, while the ledger is public, the identities of the individuals involved in transactions remain pseudonymous, balancing transparency with privacy.
Immutability-Immutability is the concept that once a transaction is recorded on the blockchain, it cannot be altered or deleted. This is achieved through cryptographic hashing and the decentralized nature of the network. Immutability ensures the integrity of the blockchain, making it a reliable and tamper-proof record of transactions. This principle is crucial for maintaining trust in the system, as it prevents fraudulent activities and data corruption.
Financial Sovereignty-Bitcoin empowers individuals by giving them full control over their own money. In traditional financial systems, access to funds can be restricted by banks or governments. Bitcoin, however, allows users to hold and transfer funds without relying on any central authority. This financial sovereignty is particularly valuable in regions with unstable economies or oppressive governments, where individuals may face restrictions on their financial freedom.
The Ideological Spectrum
Bitcoin’s philosophy is deeply rooted in libertarian values, emphasizing personal freedom and minimal government intervention. It also draws inspiration from the cypherpunk movement, a group of activists advocating for privacy-enhancing technologies to promote social and political change. These ideological influences shape Bitcoin's emphasis on decentralization, privacy, and individual empowerment.
Real-World Applications and Challenges
Bitcoin's philosophy extends beyond theory into practical applications. It is used for various purposes, from everyday transactions to a store of value akin to digital gold. However, this revolutionary system also faces challenges. Regulatory issues, scalability concerns, and environmental impact are some of the hurdles that need addressing to realize Bitcoin’s full potential.
Conclusion
The philosophy behind Bitcoin is a radical departure from traditional financial systems. Its principles of decentralization, trustlessness, transparency, immutability, and financial sovereignty offer a new vision for economic freedom and integrity. As Bitcoin continues to evolve, its underlying philosophy will play a crucial role in shaping its future and potentially transforming the global financial landscape.
Call to Action
Explore more about Bitcoin and consider its implications for your own financial freedom. Engage with the community, stay informed, and think critically about the role Bitcoin can play in our economic future. Let’s continue the journey of understanding and embracing the Bitcoin revolution together.

This ensures the safety of users' funds and will not be subject to the risk of platform manipulation or human intervention.
Global barrier-free access: BitPower's decentralized architecture allows anyone, no matter where they are, to equally access and use the platform's financial services. This barrier-free global access makes BitPower a truly global financial platform.

Funds will not enter the platform's central account, but will be traded directly between users in a peer-to-peer manner. This ensures the safety of users' funds and will not be subject to the risk of platform manipulation or human intervention.
Global barrier-free access: BitPower's decentralized architecture allows anyone, no matter where they are, to equally access and use the platform's financial services. This barrier-free global access makes BitPower a truly global financial platform.
Diverse income models Liquidity provision: Users can provide USDT liquidity to the BitPower platform and obtain corresponding income according to different investment periods. The yields provided by the platform are as follows:
1 day: 100.4% 7 days: 104% 14 days: 109.5% 28 days: 124% For example, providing 10,000 USDT liquidity, you can get 12,400 USDT after 28 days. Sharing rewards: BitPower's sharing reward mechanism allows users to get additional income by inviting new users to join the platform. According to the liquidity provided by the user, the sharing rewards are divided into different levels, and the highest level can get the recurring income commission of 17 levels of friends. For example, providing 100 USDT of liquidity can get 20% of the income commission of the first-level friends. As the liquidity increases, the reward level will also increase accordingly.
Summary BitPower is a decentralized financial platform that provides users with a secure, efficient and transparent financial environment through smart contract technology and peer-to-peer transactions. Its diverse revenue models not only allow users to earn interest by providing liquidity and lending, but also to obtain additional income through sharing reward mechanisms.

But there’s something else, too. The people who trusted Celsius weren’t tripped up only by their belief that they were outsmarting the system, though there was that. They also…they thought Celsius was a bank? It looked sort of like a bank. It did things, with crypto, that were banklike. They were familiar with how banks work. They understood that banks are safe, that if you put money in a bank you can get it back. They looked at Celsius and thought, “Well, this is a big thing, it has a nice website, it’s available to Americans. Surely if it was a problem someone would’ve done something about it." There’s something a bit alarming about this. Crypto is in a way about rejecting the institutions of society, about being trustless and censorship-resistant. But it quietly free-rides on people’s deep reservoir of trust in those institutions. People are so used to trusting banks that, when Celsius told them not to trust banks, they said, “Ah, yes, OK,” then trusted Celsius to work like a bank, to be regulated like a bank. They didn’t worry about Celsius’s opacity and leverage. They didn’t do their own due diligence on its loans and audit its DeFi positions and demand irrefutable proof of its soundness. It promised to pay them back, and that was good enough for them. But there’s something hopeful about it, too. Trust in institutions is so strong and resilient that all of crypto’s bluster can’t stamp it out. “Not your keys, not your coins, put your trust only in verifiable code,” crypto evangelists yelled, and people heard them and said, “Yes, that is nice, but I’m busy, I’m going to trust these nice strangers with my Bitcoin.”

WR2 M1 - Copy-Cat TRUSTLESS CAT VS Med-Kit THE AGENT
TRUSTLESS CAT: Ya gonna hurry up? THE AGENT: Don't rush me. TRUSTLESS CAT: Sigh... I'm gonna enjoy this... THE AGENT: There, I'm ready. TRUSTLESS CAT: Great! Let's go!
[TRUSTLESS CAT dragged THE AGENT into the battle room.]
THE AGENT: Hm. It's not-
[The room began to rumble after a minute of nothing. The walls began to change to a purple colour, and a passageway is revealed on the other side of the room.]
Tumblr media
TRUSTLESS CAT: Wh- what is this? THE AGENT: Seems straightforward enough to me. THE AGENT: One path forward. THE AGENT: Question is if you're ready to take it. TRUSTLESS CAT: Of course I'm ready to- TRUSTLESS CAT: It's just a doorway! There's nothing special about it!! THE AGENT: You can never be sure.
[TRUSTLESS CAT ran off through the passage, THE AGENT following close behind. On the other side of the passageway was a group of slimes and three more exits, all blocked off.]
TRUSTLESS CAT: A dungeon? TRUSTLESS CAT: Hell yeah! Let's fight! THE AGENT: Wasn't expecting that...
[The two fought their way through tens of rooms, TRUSTLESS CAT laughing ecstaticly the entire time.]
THE AGENT: Do you have to be so brutal? TRUSTLESS CAT: YEAH! TRUSTLESS CAT: Tell me you aren't having fun! THE AGENT: I... guess it is kinda fun, though I do feel bad... TRUSTLESS CAT: Of course.
[The two exited another room of annialated monsters, entering into a large chamber.]
TRUSTLESS CAT: Empty!? TRUSTLESS CAT: Don't go quiet on me now!!
[He was stopped in his tracks by a large stomping noise behind the two.]
THE AGENT: Don't think you should've shouted. TRUSTLESS CAT: Y-yeah.
[The giant monster roared at them.]
THE AGENT: Want some speed? TRUSTLESS CAT: Give me strength. THE AGENT: You want to fight that? THE AGENT: Risky... I like it. THE AGENT: Here.
[THE AGENT gave TRUSTLESS CAT a bottle of orange liquid. He drank it.]
TRUSTLESS CAT: HAHAHA! I'M INVINCABLE! THE AGENT: Let's make this quick.
TRUSTLESS CAT >Attack
THE AGENT >Inspect
Fight!
