GPUs are the engine of the future!

To me it isn’t about: Don’t trust, verify. To me it is about: Trust by verification. Conversely, this means that I lean heavily towards “trust-creating” rather than “trustless”. Why? The third generation of accounting should achieve precisely what traditional accounting (double-entry) cannot fulfill in the digital era: generate trust across all boundaries, with Bitcoin serving as the absolute foundation. I view trust more through the lens of how this technology enables us to distinguish fake from reality in the digital information jungle, rather than focusing on whom we must trust within the underlying transaction process to ensure that proofs are handled in a decentralized and fair manner. Both are important, no doubt, but my perspective is more of an evolution: the one approach (trustless) examines the process, while I examine the implications of its results (trust-creating) on society. I consider the right to privacy to be absolutely fundamental in this regard. That is why, among other things, I regard the research field around ZK-proofs as one of the most important when it comes to building physical trust in the digital age.
