$1 Billion Bitcoin Seized: “Modern-Day Robin Hood” Responsible?
Last week, $1 billion of bitcoin was seized by the DOJ, money that a hacker allegedly stole from the Silk Road in 2012.
The hacker's lawyer calls him a "modern-day Robin Hood".
But a couple of things to keep in mind:
1) The Hacker was most likely coerced to hand over the keys under heavy duress
2) The money was given to the DOJ so that they can continue their war on p̶e̶o̶p̶l̶e̶ drugs, sending non-violent people to jail. Possibly the least noble use of the money I can think of.
And I still have a LOT of questions about what actually took place.

DAN N
Dan-Notestein---What-REALLY-happened-with-the-HIVE-fork-
In this week's members-exclusive video, I chatted to Dan Notestein, a lead dev for Hive.
Dan goes all the way back to Bitshares days with Dan Larimer – Notestein was employee number 2 in the early days of Delegated Proof of Stake with BitShares, it was just Dan Larimer and Dan Notestein in the beginning.
He also helped bring together the team that launched Hive.
In this interview we dive into the history of Steem, the original chain that Hive forked from. We go into the Steemit inc ninja-mined stake right at the beginning that slowly broke the trust of a lot of the steem community.We talk about the controversy that surrounded the formation of Hive, and the battle with Justin Sun over the top witness spots. And we go into how the Hive tech works – how the distribution of funds to content creators works, the difference between the hive coin, hive power and hive dollar, Hive’s graphene-based blockchain framework and how it differs from other frameworks, and the dApps based on the blockchain.
Dan Notestein is a super interesting guy and was happy to share stories of one of the year’s most contentious forks from his perspective of being right in the middle. I was grateful for unique insight and I learnt a lot about the untold history of Hive.

MICHA
Michael-Egorov--How-Curve-Works,-and-its-Controversial-Token-Launch
This episode is a deep dive into Curve finance with founder Michael Egorov. Curve is the 2nd largest decentralized exchange on Ethereum, and focuses on trading between stablecoins or other similarly priced assets, for more efficiency. Users can use the platform to swap between Dai and USDT, 2 coins pegged to the US dollar. Or WBTC, RenBTC, sBTC, 3 coins pegged to the price of bitcoin.
On Curve people can also provide liquidity to the curve pools and earn fees.
Curve also interoperates with the larger DeFi Space. Such interoperable platforms are often analogized to Lego bricks: you can put different DeFi projects together in interesting ways to create new results, or maximize yield.
Michael and I talk about how the money lego “Curve” interoperates with countless other projects, like supplying tokens to Compound or yEarn.Finance to generate more income for liquidity providers.
We explain these relationships, talk about the CRV governance token, and also discuss the controversy behind the CRV launch when an anonymous person front ran the curve team and deployed the contract early.
We discuss the difference between Curve and platforms like Balancer and Uniswap, how risk is managed on the backend, and added incentives for different actions on the Curve platform.
We also talk about why some people think Curve is better suited to more sophisticated users.

DO-IT
Fluro-yeast-Long-version-20200529-002
I did a Do-It-At-Home genetic engineering kit from The Odin (links below), adding jellyfish DNA to yeast, in order to turn the yeast florescent.
We’re using a process called “transformation”. It’s where you genetically alter a cell by introducing new DNA through the cell walls. Usually cell walls stop cells mixing with foreign DNA. So we’re going to weaken the cell walls. This temporary state is called “competence”, and it’s where the cell is for a limited time able to take up exogenous DNA from the environment.
If the cell demonstrates what’s called “uptake” and incorporation of this new genetic material, it’s called “transformation”, and that means we’ve successfully joined jellyfish with yeast and created florescent yeast!
The Odin makes fantastic bio-hacking kits which give people the tools to do all kinds of awesome science experiments at home. Check out my do-it-at-home CRISPR project: https://youtu.be/XLJqDXewAjM
