  1. Exploring the world of the artist known as ECDSA!

    In the latest TechAptitude post we dive into the primary cryptographic algorithm used in many blockchain based systems including Bitcoin and Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Avalanche - Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA).

    We review ECDSA and how it secures cryptocurrencies like BitCoin and Ethereum.

  5. Marcus Aurelius Monday! Selected Quotes!

    Drum Roll! Here is this week’s quote from Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius – known as the "Philosopher King".

    "Do not indulge in dreams of having what you have not but reckon up the chief of the blessings you do possess, and then thankfully remember how you would crave for them if they were not yours."

  6. Prediction markets coming up fast on he outside!

    Traders on Kalshi and Polymarket, have executed more than $800M of contracts tied to the Super Bowl - so far.

    Compare that to $1.8B Americans are expected to wager on the game through regulated sports books. The $$ flowing to prediction markets is sucking up $$ that would likely otherwise have ended up on traditional gambling forums - Ouch!

    The other interesting aspect, multi-person betting syndicates are now emerging as the way to leverage predication market betting at scale. bloomberg.com/news/articles/20 #PredictionMarkets #Kalshi #PolyMarket #SuperBowl #Betting #Gambling #SportsBooks #Odds #Wagers #Probabilities #Prediction

  11. The Ethereum Foundation wakes up and smells the PQC coffee!

    The foundation has made post quantum security a priority and formed a dedicated team to address looming threats from quantum computing.

    Keys areas they are working to address are:
    1) Transaction signatures and accounts - existing ECDSA transaction signatures as quantum‑vulnerable.

    2) Consensus and commitments: KZG and BLS‑based components are recognized as quantum‑vulnerable.

    3) Virtual machine architecture: leanVM is positioned as the “cornerstone” of Ethereum’s PQ cryptography strategy, designed to support PQ signatures and ZK‑proof systems efficiently inside the protocol.

    4) Ecosystem migration: The roadmap emphasizes backward compatibility so existing wallets, smart contracts, and infrastructure can continue functioning while new PQ standards roll in gradually.

  12. IMHO - This has nothing to do with "space based AI" ... last I checked the sun shines on the earth's surface too...

    This is financial engineering so Musk can:

    1) fund his money losing and bloated valuation xAI with TAXPAYER $$$ >> aka funnel $ from SpaceX to keep xAI going.
    2) mask Tesla and Twitter/X's declining values and poor results so they are less visible to investors who keep plowing $$ into these meme stocks.
    3) continue his massive game of 3 card monte - look here, no look over here, no look over here.

    FYI - estimates are that SpaceX gets 70-80 % of its revenue from contracts with the U.S. Gov. and DoD. Exact #'s are impossible to get - SpaceX is still a private company.

  13. Count me as also being in the WTF club on this one! SpaceX exploring merging with xAI??????

    "The value, timing, and primary rationale of any potential deal could not be determined."

    Some commentators suggest that Musk is spreading himself out much too thin these days, therefore consolidation is possibly a good thing. This feels like some kinda convoluted financial engineering stunt, and if true, the only winner(s) will be Musk and a few select leaders @ SpaceX and/or xAI. digitimes.com/news/a20260130VL #SpaceX #xAI #Merger #Acquisition #FinancialEngineering #AI #Space #IPO #Investors #Investing #Equity

  20. ChatBots "talking" to ChatBots.

    1. Ok, we knew this would happen.
    2. It has enormous adoption in the geeksphere - not surprising.
    3. It's wickedly insecure.
    4. Yes, it can steal your Crypto - not surprising!
    5. Yes, there is personal information stealing Malware (see #4 above) masquerading as prediction market trading automation tools - not surprising!
    6. The odds of a "Challenger level disaster" happening are real - not surprising!
    6. Finally, NO ONE knows where this is stuff will end up.

  25. Let's open a new can of hyperbole shall we! Oh, wait we've seen this before.

    Tesla claims yet again that Robotaxi's are now operating without human “safety monitors" in the car in Austin TX. Apparently the human supervisors are now in a separate car that shadows the Robotaxi. And riders are reporting there are no “unsupervised” rides operating. Social media commentators slammed this is another marketing stunt. futurism.com/advanced-transpor #Tesla #RoboTaxi #AutonomousDriving #FSD #Hyperbole #Austin
