"The accounting issues related to stealing old Bitcoin remaining outstanding" šŸ˜‚ Regarding Matt's question "wouldn't [someone with a secret quantum computer] attack other systems first?" I used to think they would obviously go after some bigger fish than Bitcoin but now I think Bitcoin is the most attractive target Would you rather make millions/billions of dollars taking most likely lost or known-to-be lost coins (which you can possibly justify to yourself and/or the public as a victimless crime, if even a crime) or risk jail forever by committing fraud on the NYSE or eavesdropping on the President? I am not aware of a use for a secret quantum computer that isn't morally and legally fraught and the risk/reward of taking dead people's Bitcoin is pretty good compared to the alternatives

My $0.02 on staking and liquidity re: ETFs as a liquid fund manager (last week's episode, sorry I'm behind) Stupid-simple solution- just leave some unstaked, some rolling unstaked, and some always staked Second- recreate a liquid staking token without a token. Just a private agreement for lenders to provide short-term liquidity knowing you're good for the collateral Third- just use a liquid staking token Fourth- some Frankenstein of those 3 Possible the ETF regulations will privilege different assets based on their lockups. SOL maybe better positioned than ETH for example. SOL staking ->3 days unlock in worst case, ETH worst case is like a month? It's messier Unclear which liquidity regs *will* apply or (to a layman like me) which *should* apply but possible staked assets are deemed illiquid (some ETFs no more than 15% can be "illiquid"). Also possible staked SOL deemed not illiquid as worst case <7 days but ETH is deemed illiquid, meaning you only see staked SOL (et al) ETFs and not staked ETH ETFs
