One of the important arguments in the blockchain space is that of whether hard forks or soft forks are the preferred protocol upgrade mechanism. The basic difference between the two is that soft forks change the rules of a protocol by strictly reducing the set of transactions that is valid, so nodes following the old rules will still get on the new chain (provided that the majority of miners/validators implements the fork), whereas hard forks allow previously invalid transactions and blocks to become valid, so clients must upgrade their clients

They are kind of like BitTorrent, but they are also not like BitTorrent, as BitTorrent has no concept of state — a distinction that turns out to be crucially important.

Over the past decade, two titans have emerged from the tech realm, each promising to redefine the very fabric of our global infrastructure - Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Web3. But what happens when these two forces converge? Are we on the brink of a new digital renaissance or a potentially uncharted dystopia? Consider this: AI is, at its core, the embodiment of advanced logic and decision-making, a machine's ability to "think" and process information in ways eerily similar to humans. It's no longer just about algorithms; it's about creating synthetic

In an era where decentralized finance (DeFi) promises revolutionary, permissionless, and credit-check-free access to financial services, the limitations to its application lie in the narrow range of digital assets it encompasses. But industry pioneers are working to widen its scope by introducing real-world assets (RWAs) to the digital realm. For instance, in collaboration with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), Ripple is embarking on a research project to try and tokenize real estate. This venture was made public about seven weeks ago as part of a broader initiative, the digital
