step-lego-wat-u-doin- How are actually the pictures behind NFT collections created? How do you create 10’000 pictures with different attributes? Can you program photoshop? I never understood that part about creating a collection. The uncle of my girlfriend is creating amazing physical art that would fit well to the internet culture and he never got recognition for it. So I was tinking if we could create a collection out of one of his paintings (of course only if he is in). So is that all done with photoshop? Are there tutorials to do this? Will a normal graphic designer know how that works? Thank you for any help

NaughtyNome- Realistic dApps In the past, Vitalik Buterin once talked about how ETH could potentially replace Uber, in that it would connect the driver to a client directly with no middle man taking a chunk of the profits. Is this even realistic with the current level of scalability on ETH with all of these L2 scaling solutions and the soon to come ETH 2.0 update? As in, could the blockchain handle such an application? Iām all for this concept, it excites me, but one thing I canāt seem to wrap my head around is that who would build something like this when there would be no incentive since the middle man makes no money? I guess you could label it a non-profit for the sole sake of undercutting companies like Uber, but to me it still doesnāt seem feasible without out some incentive. There is a blockchain version of Fiverr / Upwork called Braintrust (Iāve heard itās catered to more professional work). This is a perfect example of what Iām talking about but it does indeed charge a 10% fee from what a freelancer would be paid but I believe itās sortve done discreetly. I think itās considered to be a āfinders feeā.

Remusmaleek- ETH 2.0 validators balance Hi, so going through beaconscan, i see that many may validators have over 64 eth in deposits, with 32 eth effective. So that's 2x deposits of 32 eth + their income earned. My question is, why two deposits? What's the point of having 64 eth when only 32 is the effective balance

_SaWT_- Why are rollups called rollups? Is it in analogy to how the state of a contract can be "unrolled" from a minimum vital piece of base layer data (root)?

Remusmaleek- What will happen if someone DDoS attacks Layer-2 Rollups? Yesterday Solana got ddos (? not sure) attack. WuBlockchain says Solana went down for 4 hours. While recently Polygon got spam (attack?) from SunFlower Farm. Polygon's gas price has increased by more than 10x What if these attacks happen on L2 like Arbitrum, Zksync, or Starkware? Will the sequencer fails? Will the gas fees goes down/up?

Remusmaleek- Sell a house as an NFT, with BTC as a currency and to verify the exchange a Smart Contract on ETH. I live in Argentina and my grandparents want to sell their house, the economic situation of the country is not very good so that everyone is constantly bidding to buy a house. Since the pandemic began, the situation in the country worsened and the working sector of our society was strongly affected. The value of our currency decreased in large percentages and the government established taxes to be able to exchange the currency for a stronger one which adds a great difficulty to be able to cope with the situation. Many chose to sell their belongings and leave the country, which increased the number of homes for sale. So far sales of houses in cryptocurrencies were made to avoid taxes only and you can count on the fingers of your hands the number of times this was done. My idea is what I raise in the title of this post. Register all the papers in a blockchain, make the registration legally according to how determined by the Argentine Government and carry out the exchange of the house and documents in physical and their documents also in an NFT format. I would like to receive some tips so that I do not forget that I must register and also, that they share this in some way to find many more opinions, if you also have tips of where it is better to put this in an auction. The price of the house is estimated at 265,000 USD, so that while this is not done they can make the account and equate the price in BTC. It is a two-story house, with patio, and has two garages, one of them roofed. Located in the 3rd most important city in the country in a residential area, the neighborhood is quiet. Thank you very much for reading and for contributing knowledge If you do not understand a section well, it is because this post was written entirely in Spanish and translated with an App. My original text: https://substantial-income-a9a.notion.site/Vender-una-casa-como-NFT-con-BTC-como-moneda-y-para-constatar-el-intercambio-un-Contrato-Inteli-f8eb399b5e68448fbfea9a819a0bfe3c

drdreadoo- Trigger Warning: Crypto is Not Here To Make You RICH. Crypto is Here To Make You FREE **Introduction: Opportunity for Wealth in the Cryptoverse** Nowhere else on Earth will you find similar types of gains in the cryptoverse. It is a fact, that the opportunity for wealth here is so immense that it creates dreams of unprecedented wealth even for those with a common life. Combine this with explosive price actions and hype, lots of attention and adoption are drawn into the space on a regular basis, making it one of the fastest-growing sectors in the entire human existence. However, while everybody thinks crypto is the go-to place to make millions, it is also where entire financial life and fortune are ruined and lost. As a nascent space, crypto is warned with a lot of risks, even in a bull market, yet it is intriguing to see people pilling themselves up, thinking this is the only opportunity to escape the rat race and hence better their life. This kind of mentality does make me wonder what the hell is wrong with the current world we are all living in. ​ **The Reality of The Current System** The truth is you canāt blame them. In the legacy system, so much wrongs are to be found that clouded their ability to judge and search for opportunities. People are enslaved to the system, both in the physical and in the digital world. They live most of their life in accordance to the work and spend cycle, conforming and following the exact same path of life as everybody else under the promise of security and happiness. In exchange, they have to give up their freedom to those who stay in the highest positions of power. Either by forces or by influences, every human society trends toward a structure with a few in control of the majority. While this is natural to the existence of human beings, it is also what creates much of the sufferings and injustice we see throughout all human history. Being power-hungry and driven creatures, we form hierarchical structures to ensure the best cooperation between each other, yet when societies and networks expand beyond our consciousness, power tends to overconcentrate in entities that then often become corrupted, oppressive and unaccountable. ​ **Centralization of Power and Human Nature** Reflecting on this, we can see the same presence in some of the strongest nations in the world today. When power is abused by a centralized entity, someone must suffer. If not those at the top, the price will have to be paid by those at the bottom, and this is often the case. We see this time and time over again, with the final fate of most society leading towards intolerance, civil war and eventually the collapse of the entire system. The same can be said to the digital society today, though the difference is those in positions of power are untouchable and divine. They play the role of Gods, influencing the lives of millions and billions each year without us having a voice-over, yet we all have come to accept it because we have no other choice. Despite all of these, people are still chasing the same damn things that make them slaves in the old system. Thinking by somehow riching off from crypto or any new innovation will make them more free and live more comfortably. This is only a delusion painted by the lies of consumerism and power-hungry culture. In a centralized system, you are neither free nor rich, you are either the few powerful or the majority powerless. ​ **Faith in The New System** Understanding this is the first step in understanding why the world of crypto is so disruptive and why the opportunity for wealth here is so real. Wealth does not magically exist. It comes with and from people who came collectively with the same mindset, same vision and set out to do the same goal: to make a difference in the world, to build something that breaks away from the power structure of the legacy system and to create a place where fairness and freedom lie at the heart of the system. Crypto was never made to make you RICH. Crypto was made to make you FREE. This is the vision of Satoshi for what a decentralized, trustless, permissionless and censorship-resistant system would bring to the future of humanity: A world where we all have a choice, to either give away control of our life to someone else or be the one who dictates our own fate. Many of us realized we do not need banks, institutions and corporations to be our responsible. Many of us realized we do not need centralized entities to tell us what to do and what not to do with our life. Many of us realized that we can decide things for ourselves, and that is something we are not offered in the current system. With crypto, we have A CHOICE, and as there exists a demand for having this choice, the market responds with growth and opportunity to where it is offered. ​ **Becoming Successful In The Cryptoverse** Understanding this is crucial to becoming successful in the space. Those who do not stick around will never win big or win at all because their minds are still plugged into the old system. The biggest winners of the space are those who understand the value proposition and turn themselves to this beautiful vision and dedicate their lives to make it a reality either through long-term capitals, through their voices and their words or through their own hands. Without courage, there is no freedom. Without freedom, there is no opportunity. What is offered as protection in the centralized world is in disguise of restriction, to limit the rate of innovation and revolution that are happening through crypto. They will doubt our success and they will question our authenticity to change the world. But we show them why we are better and why we had to be better, and by believing and dedicating to this space, we ultimately win by bringing equal opportunities to all human beings, while expanding the potentials of human kinds instead of limiting them like in the legacy system. ​ **TLDR: Conclusion** Those who understand the purpose of the cryptoverse will ultimately understand the opportunity for wealth that comes with it. And for as long as we, the people, come together to push it into existence, crypto will not be a single opportunity but an opportunity of a lifetime for all of us human beings. Crypto is here to stay.

not_that_guy82640- Damn… Polygon lack of balance/allowance check fixed. $2.2M payout to whitehat. Props to Polygon for the rapid response and the wh for the report. "Whitehat Leon Spacewalker reported a critical vulnerability in Polygon on December 3. The vulnerability consisted of a lack of balance/allowance check in the transfer function of Polygonās MRC20 contract and would have allowed an attacker to steal all ~9,276,584,332 MATIC (as of December 5, the date of the fix) from that contract. Following the report from Leon Spacewalker, Polygon immediately sprang into action to fix the bug. Immunefi assisted in investigating blockchain activity, validating the fix, and advising the hardfork operation."

abittooambitious- The proof of stake merge will not do a single thing for transaction cost reduction. Iāve seen a lot of comments floating around lately to ā wait for the PoS merge to see reduced feesā. Let me explain why this wonāt do anything for fees. We are just changing the ā consensusā or how transactions are verified. We are going from physical miners to validators. This will not change any aspects of the blocks such as block size, throughput, etc. therefore fees will be the exact same. What this will have are other benefits such as environmental conservation, less selling pressure due to an incentive to hold ETH, a disincentive to be malicious to to slashing, etc. The only two items I see that will reduce gas fees are L2s and sharding (will come out sometime after the merge). 1 2

PinkPuppyBall- There is a very dangerous disgusting scam going on Instagram with 650k followers impersonating Vitalik. Please upvote this so something can be done about it. People need to be aware of this Guys, Please be aware there is a fraud account on Instagram with the alias @vitalik.eth (which is his real Twitter handle) with almost 650k followers as of now. They are running harmless paid sponsored ads on photos of Vitalik. Everything looks harmless and legit at first glance, even the engagement is through the roof with likes and comments This fraud account is based out of Israel, Vitalik does not have Instagram. The clowns behind this page are stealing from people. The scam gets people to dm this person whom they think is Vitalik, and they proceed to rope them into your classic crypto scams such as sending seed phrases or sending them coins where they get 3x in return or something similarly stupid. Also being sent malicious links. The account canāt be reported as a fake because the real one is not on Instagram. I hope someone who sees this can do something about it to get this account banned. It has been around since 2019 which is ridiculous 1 2
