It was the initial incentive, but it's the only English speaking country in the eurozone (aside from Malta) and there's a huge number of companies who have massive capital investments (pharma/biomedical). Now there's a very active tech scene, it's tightly linked to the US so it actually feels quite sustainable.
Maybe. I suspect playing tax haven for the largest corporations in the world plays a much bigger role in the generalised prosperity than anything else but I suppose we'll see.
Not only do the numbers look small, the explanations seem very poor. For example:
>We began our investigation after reviewing public reporting...
So what Meta is saying here is that despite Russia having started a land war in Europe, Meta didn't do any pro-active investigation and anti-influence operations. Instead it waited until public reporting uncovered that their service had acted as a useful idiot for fascists. Think about the level of information and data that Meta has access to that it could use to detect and prevent attacks, and instead your average journalist is more likely to actually uncover these attacks.
Hahaha. Even better, the twitterer specializes in digital detoxes (a worthy cause, but counter to Twitter's goals). Maybe his secret plan is to turn down services in a volunteer capacity
>Aztec is on the cutting edge of zero-knowledge SNARK development. Built on PLONK — the paradigm-defining universal zk-SNARK used by leading zero-knowledge projects like Mina, Dusk, Zcash, and zkSync.
I have an open mind about this area and a technical background. I really struggle to understand what any of this means and what I can use it for. My experience with cryptocurrency (paying for things) has been challenging. As the whole ecosystem is very fragmented it's hard to know what to explore.
ZK proofs allow you to prove you know the answer to something without revealing the answer itself. You may not need to know how these things work at a low level. If you're interested, feel free to dig into zk proofs and the cryptography behind them. The subject is quite deep and rapidly evolving. Ultimately, the important thing to know at a high level is that you can post a zk proof with just a few bytes of data, and that zk proofs, while computationally expensive to generate, are computationally cheap to verify. So they are being used as a blockchain scaling technology, since data storage is expensive on blockchains.
If you're just interested in crypto as a user, I would generally recommend getting a Metamask wallet and interacting with some applications like Uniswap, Aave, or OpenSea.
That’s a poor analogy. He wasn’t married to multiple women at the same time. And one can have multiple relationships simultaneously without getting married five times.
This is country specific. The stock grant price and the vest or sale price are used in my country to assess gains, so you still have capital gains to pay even if you sell right after vesting
