Fall is often associated with comfort food but that doesn’t mean you can’t be healthy too.
Here are four healthy and delicious foods you should be eating more of this fall.
Pumpkins contain a powerful antioxidant called beta-carotene and they’re also a great source of fiber. You can make lots of dishes with pumpkin, including soup, risotto, casserole, muffins, overnight oats and pie.
Root vegetables are packed full of essential nutrients and as there is a wide variety of them you will never get bored. The best way to eat them is to roast them with a sprinkle of your favorite herbs or spices.
Apples are delicious, high in fiber and a great snack option for when you’re busy. They can be incorporated into several dishes such as pie, crumble, muffins, overnight oats or cake.
Day 118Welcome back friends to the first session of today's #foodtalk show on Leo (21/10/2024 for 20/10/2024). Click to join the threadcast, we will discuss the necessary kitchen ingredients to make available in your pantry.
Prompt: What are the Kitchen Ingredients that are necessary to have in a pantry?
A well-stocked pantry can make cooking easier and more efficient, allowing you to whip up a variety of meals without needing to run to the store. Here’s a list of essential kitchen ingredients to keep in your pantry:
It seems unbelievable, but it is not a spice or any food as such, but I must always have cheese in the fridge, because with cheese any food tastes better. #foodtalk
O October! You arrived and started out well and I wouldn't want to say you're in a rush to end, but as you keep passing and counting, remember where and how you started and don't forget to leave those footprints that tend to change the lives of so many people.
If we stay consistent and BUIDL, I believe we can build life-changing wealth by 2030. This is my bet. Like many things in life, I could be wrong, but then again... I could be right 😎

I'd agree with that. You also only lost money if you sold at a loss which can also be a smart play at times to actully SAVE money. Just needs to learn the game and be in it longer than a quick wild trade or two.
That's right! It's all about risk management. Heck I lost a bit on an options trade this week so I could cut the loss and ended up rolling into a better option that ended up yielding me double what I lost...
Wonderfully said! I admire people who put their actions where their principles are, and I absolutely love seeing all that hard work and skill building pay off for them😊
That's for lazy investors in my opinion. I make WAY more by trading than just sitting on something. Let me ask you this, if you had a grocery store, you would want to sell your products, right? Not let the expire on a shelf and throw away? Same thing... This is a business.
A lot of people thought Bitcoin was expiring in 2014 as the price crashed from $1200 to $200, but imagine if they just held on.
I think it depends on a lot on your time horizon. If you are one of the few who can profit well by trading short-term, then all the power to you! But I've seen a lot of people get wrecked doing that.
That's because they probably came at it like a get rich quick scheme and did stupid things to lose their money. If you treat it like a business, you can make money. Again, if you buy and hold something, how are you actually using it? It's just sitting there going up and down with price. I catch profits in those swings to make my income. As I said in the post, trading and long term investing are NOT the same thing.

I think it was used in The Book of Eli as Eli (Denzel Washington) was explaining why he believed he was going to succeed in his mission to deliver The Bible to Alcatraz despite his handicap. The Lord was w/ him all the way, for sure.
After all this time, The Book of Eli is still better than many movies which had been released since. U may discover things on another viewing U hadn't realized D 1st time you saw this movie. Other Bible verses are quoted in it, too.
oh man, that's a fantastic question! I grew up as secular as coud be. Religion was the furthest thing from my mind. I always believed in something bigger, but organized religion...I hated it.
But one thing led to another, I started reading more. Started following the history of the church and how it came to be. The gospels, the history of them.
I just couldn't deny it. As deep as I dug, my answers always led back to the bible and God. For me it was a case of just the more I learned, the bigger my faith grew.
I’m not Christian but I do consider myself a person of faith. Sorry for crashing the thread…but for me it comes from trial and error.
When I try to release the hate in my heart and trust in the universe I find that life shows its goodness (even though there is still ugliness in the world). I have too many inexplainable experiences to believe it’s all random
a friend shared this the other day. He was reading a book about this Rabbi.
Our goal should be to live life in radical amazement. ....get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible; never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.
2 Corinthians 13:8 (KJV) For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
As we get on our daily endeavor, in struggle to make ends meet, let us remember that we cannot do anything against the Truth.
We Cannot Desire Of Aspire Against The Truth
Whatever we are aiming at and desiring to achieve, let us know that we cannot desire outside the truth
We Cannot Talk or Discuss Against The Truth
No matter the discussion which we are involved in, we cannot talk against the Truth.
“This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel
after that time,” declares the Lord.
“I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.

Western countries are being asked to protect religious freedom, including for people of faith who hold traditional views on marriage and sexuality.
Meeting in Berlin, Germany, recently, religious freedom experts from around the world raised concerns about "increasing intolerance" toward people of faith in Europe and North America.
About to get to bed, but here's one last one before I take off ;)
"And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepard."
This is the assignment we have in this world, for God's word to be heard by so many who don't believe in Him and those who have gone astray.I love this passage of the #bible.

The Mets lineup for tonight’s Game 6 playoff game against the Dodgers in Los Angeles. They win there will be a sudden death Game 7. If they lose their season is over.
My boys are three outs away from their magical path to the National League Championship Series and it's looking like the baseball Gods are getting what they want: Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge on the world stage. I mean it's money in the bank.
I'm proud of the Mets. As a Mets fan, it was amazing to see how they defied all odds to get to this point.
Yankee pitching is not going to give up as many runs and won’t walk so many either. The Dodgers or in for a tough fight. Personally, I don’t have a dog in this fight but wouldn’t want the Yankees to win yet another title and I’m not enamored with Ohtani as most people are. He’s a beast but so are Judge, Soto and Stanton. Those are mountainous bashers. The Yankees have Cole and the Dodgers have on one in their rotation that comes close to Cole. Good luck my friend @cflclosers

💀You don't need to self-custody
💀You should trust government
💀Government would never confiscate your custodial Bitcoin
💀You're a "paranoid crypto anarachist, and a scammer, if you disagree
Those are his views. But those are his actions as well.
He's done everything he can to push Bitcoin to be a pyramid number-go-up investment-only that's held by custodians like him (he's trying to open a Bitcoin bank).
I'm not a huge fan of Saylor's view on Bitcoin either, and I wouldn't be surprised to see some governments confiscating crypto held in banks/exchanges for "the greater good".
That said, I also think the road to self-custody is a long one. In my experience, most people are afraid to manage a seed phrase, or they end up losing it.
I think we need a middle ground for now, where people who aren't ready for self-custody can keep their crypto in a "bank", but with an easy way to transition to self-custody when they feel comfortable.
For sure, and I think projects like Vultisig are amazing for helping make self custody simple. But what Saylor's doing is trying to bring tyranny to freedom money. It's inexcusable.
There's also a new alliance called DeRec (decentralized recovery) that's working on a standard that would allow users to spread their secrets over a number of trusted "helpers", who would then assist you to recover your seed phrases should you lose your device.
I'm not saying Michael Saylor didn't say those things. What I don't understand is how he could hold those positions in the 1st place. What is his endgame?
Should we still own BTC? Is there a major cryptocurrency more in line w/ our values?

Yeah, you will learn, there is no need to rush it. I've done all the way from having no clue of what I was doing and publishing random content to being a Hive Speaker on my country and working with Inleo... it took a while XD
Finally scraped together 99 HBD for a year of Premium through LeoDEX. Couldn't make it that last mile though, kept getting failures and ending up with Leo on ARB.
I made up the entirety of LeoDEX's volume for the day!
Finally capitulated and used a CEX swap service to finish it off. Got the HBD and bought Premium.
Can't wait until @khaleelkazi makes it smooth. Will be so nice!
From X-Files season 3, "Jose Chung’s From Outer Space". One of what I call X-Files novelty episodes. "War of the Coprophages" was my personal favorite.
I gotta say for how much I want to use LeoDEX there always seems to be major issues like this and then long support holds to get the funds. It's not a good look IMO
outside looking in it always seems like people complaining for weeks about stuck transactions lol I'm just saying that's what most new users see which isn't good.
Ah, I wish they had a dumbed down version of the swap where they just did it all even if it meant they took a little more of a fee. I feel like most people are looking for stupid simple and don't care about a 0.5% more fee because of it.
I agree. To be honest, I have always had issues with their bridges. When they had the BSC and Polygon CUB bridges, I couldn't EVER get it to work, or there was never any liquidity.

If Wall Street is going 2become part of the cryptocurrency landscape, then we need 2do all we can 2fortify the "Main Street" section of crypto. We may not B able 2avoid dealing w/ Wall Street, but we should minimize out interactions w/ it.
Well the difference is Wall Street excels at building things people can use. We have failed at that. Look at the UI, the lack of infrastructure and the time wasted pursuing stuff that made no sense.
Wall Street doesnt operate based upon how the world actually works. That is why they focus upon things like collateral as compared to simply payments.
Wall Street as an institution has also existed 4 centuries. It had time 2 grow, develop, & evolve. "Main Street" crypto is in its infancy. For now, we have 2survive whatever self-inflicted wounds we have long enough 2get smart about things.

“Leveraging data has upped our game in fraud detection and prevention,” said Miskell.
The Treasury Department credited AI with helping authorities prevent and recover more than $4 billion in fraud in fiscal year 2024, a sixfold increase from the previous year.
US authorities quietly began using AI to detect financial crimes in late 2022, following the lead many banks and credit card companies already do to stop bad guys.
The goal is to protect taxpayer money against fraud, which increased during the Covid-19 pandemic, when the federal government struggled to disburse emergency aid to consumers and businesses.
It's clear that Treasury isn't using generative AI, the kind that has captivated users of OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini by generating images, creating song lyrics, and answering complex questions (although it still sometimes struggles with simple queries).
Instead, fraud detection efforts rely on machine learning, the subset of AI that excels at analyzing large amounts of data and making decisions and predictions based on what it has learned.
AI can be very useful in combating financial crime by sifting through near-infinite streams of data and detecting subtle patterns – all in a fraction of the time it would take a human to do so.
“Fraudsters are really good at hiding. They are secretly trying to game the system,” Miskell said. “AI and leveraging data help us find these hidden patterns and anomalies and work to prevent them.”
Each year, the Treasury delivers about 1.4 billion payments valued at nearly $7 trillion to 100 million people. It's responsible for sending out everything from Social Security and Medicaid payments to federal worker paychecks, tax refunds and stimulus checks.
US officials have expressed concern that AI will introduce new dangers into the financial system. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warned bankers in June that AI in finance poses “significant risks.”

Many people try to trade and fail, this is because they are not serious about it and just want to hit a quick buck.
Those of us that do it full time have put in the work to learn a skillset that can make us money as long as the financial markets exist.
So those that complain they lost money and quit were nothing but gamblers in the first place.
To be a logical trader, you have to treat it like a business!
I'd agree with that. You also only lost money if you sold at a loss which can also be a smart play at times to actully SAVE money. Just needs to learn the game and be in it longer than a quick wild trade or two.
That's right! It's all about risk management. Heck I lost a bit on an options trade this week so I could cut the loss and ended up rolling into a better option that ended up yielding me double what I lost...

It's much easier to just buy and hold, if you can be a little patient.
That's for lazy investors in my opinion. I make WAY more by trading than just sitting on something. Let me ask you this, if you had a grocery store, you would want to sell your products, right? Not let the expire on a shelf and throw away? Same thing... This is a business.

That's because they probably came at it like a get rich quick scheme and did stupid things to lose their money. If you treat it like a business, you can make money. Again, if you buy and hold something, how are you actually using it? It's just sitting there going up and down with price. I catch profits in those swings to make my income.

Here's the first ever Kingdom #threadcast
Bringing a little bit of spiritual inspiration on Threads :)
Post your #bible verses, scriptures, inspirational quotes, religious news, whatever your heart desires...
Proverbs 8: 11 (Good News Translation)
nothing you want can compare with me.
#bible #proverbs #wisdom
-- Psalm 23:4
I can't begin to describe how much Psalms 23 has comforted me over the years.
I think it was used in The Book of Eli as Eli (Denzel Washington) was explaining why he believed he was going to succeed in his mission to deliver The Bible to Alcatraz despite his handicap. The Lord was w/ him all the way, for sure.
I only watched that movie once...I should check it out again
After all this time, The Book of Eli is still better than many movies which had been released since. U may discover things on another viewing U hadn't realized D 1st time you saw this movie. Other Bible verses are quoted in it, too.
nice nice, i'll be sure to re watch it!
DUDE, SUCH AN AWESOME FLICK! One of Denzel's best in my opinion.
yeah i remember that i enjoyed it. need to watch it again for sure
Not sharing a bible phrase because I dont know any.
But just wanna ask as a non believer. What made you believe and what do you feel faith gives you?
oh man, that's a fantastic question! I grew up as secular as coud be. Religion was the furthest thing from my mind. I always believed in something bigger, but organized religion...I hated it.
But one thing led to another, I started reading more. Started following the history of the church and how it came to be. The gospels, the history of them.
I just couldn't deny it. As deep as I dug, my answers always led back to the bible and God. For me it was a case of just the more I learned, the bigger my faith grew.
I like this question.
I’m not Christian but I do consider myself a person of faith. Sorry for crashing the thread…but for me it comes from trial and error.
When I try to release the hate in my heart and trust in the universe I find that life shows its goodness (even though there is still ugliness in the world). I have too many inexplainable experiences to believe it’s all random
a friend shared this the other day. He was reading a book about this Rabbi.
Abraham Joshua Heschel
Amen and amen!
That's so true. Every day is a blessing.
Some comfort in times of worry and stress....
"The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"
Psalms 27:1
2 Corinthians 13:8 (KJV) For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
As we get on our daily endeavor, in struggle to make ends meet, let us remember that we cannot do anything against the Truth.
Whatever we are aiming at and desiring to achieve, let us know that we cannot desire outside the truth
No matter the discussion which we are involved in, we cannot talk against the Truth.
WE ARE DEFENDERS OF THE TRUTH
Amen and Amen!
Great verse! Thanks for sharing!
cool to see this. Thanks for starting it.
I was thinking of how to incoporate it in Threads...Task came through with a great idea! I knew he was a bible thumper lol
😂
My favorite #bible verse ever:
"Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall..."
Proverbs 16:18
Favorite Bible verse:
“This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel
after that time,” declares the Lord.
“I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
Jeremiah 31:33
Love it beyond words!
I have so many bible verses, but what my favorite verse is from John 15: 5 (NIV)
love it!
God bless to your endeavor with God in this thread. I'll support you in the background whenever I can.
appreciate that. i am running late today but i will fire up a new one later tonight and get it filled :)
Thank you for doing this. I love it
for sure, i'll start another one up tomorrow morning for me (in about 10 hours or so from now)
Proverbs 16:3 (Good News Translation)

'Serious threat': Western nations urged to protect religious freedom amid growing intolerance
Western countries are being asked to protect religious freedom, including for people of faith who hold traditional views on marriage and sexuality.
Meeting in Berlin, Germany, recently, religious freedom experts from around the world raised concerns about "increasing intolerance" toward people of faith in Europe and North America.

About to get to bed, but here's one last one before I take off ;)
"And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepard."
John 10:16
This is the assignment we have in this world, for God's word to be heard by so many who don't believe in Him and those who have gone astray.I love this passage of the #bible.
Thanks Jongo for sharing.
Good morning and have a productive week ahead.

The Mets lineup for tonight’s Game 6 playoff game against the Dodgers in Los Angeles. They win there will be a sudden death Game 7. If they lose their season is over.

The Steelers just scored what is safe to say is the dagger for the Jets. 30-15 Steelers lead with about 12 minutes remaining.

My boys are three outs away from their magical path to the National League Championship Series and it's looking like the baseball Gods are getting what they want: Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge on the world stage. I mean it's money in the bank.
I'm proud of the Mets. As a Mets fan, it was amazing to see how they defied all odds to get to this point.

Pitchers and catchers report on Valentines Day. You can't hurt me anymore. You're only in my mind.
Yankee pitching is not going to give up as many runs and won’t walk so many either. The Dodgers or in for a tough fight. Personally, I don’t have a dog in this fight but wouldn’t want the Yankees to win yet another title and I’m not enamored with Ohtani as most people are. He’s a beast but so are Judge, Soto and Stanton. Those are mountainous bashers. The Yankees have Cole and the Dodgers have on one in their rotation that comes close to Cole. Good luck my friend @cflclosers
Yes, my money is on the Yankees. The Dodgers go as Muncy goes and he won't walk as much. I just want a game 7 but I don't think I'll get there.
Will be must watch TV. I’m sure the network would love a game 7.

Michael Saylor says:
💀You don't need to self-custody
💀You should trust government
💀Government would never confiscate your custodial Bitcoin
💀You're a "paranoid crypto anarachist, and a scammer, if you disagree
#crypto #bitcoin
Here's the clip if you wanted to watch yourself.
I saw the video embedded at the Twitter/X posting. Dude is serious. Holy cow!! 😮
Yeah he's bad news.
wait are those really his views? Because that'd downright madness compared to his actions.
Those are his views. But those are his actions as well.
He's done everything he can to push Bitcoin to be a pyramid number-go-up investment-only that's held by custodians like him (he's trying to open a Bitcoin bank).
I'm not a huge fan of Saylor's view on Bitcoin either, and I wouldn't be surprised to see some governments confiscating crypto held in banks/exchanges for "the greater good".
That said, I also think the road to self-custody is a long one. In my experience, most people are afraid to manage a seed phrase, or they end up losing it.
I think we need a middle ground for now, where people who aren't ready for self-custody can keep their crypto in a "bank", but with an easy way to transition to self-custody when they feel comfortable.
For sure, and I think projects like Vultisig are amazing for helping make self custody simple. But what Saylor's doing is trying to bring tyranny to freedom money. It's inexcusable.
I'll have to look into Vultisig.
There's also a new alliance called DeRec (decentralized recovery) that's working on a standard that would allow users to spread their secrets over a number of trusted "helpers", who would then assist you to recover your seed phrases should you lose your device.
He's the leading voice and influencer on Bitcoin by a mile.
Anyone in Bitcoin who continues to support this bad actor isn't a friend of freedom.
Bitcoin is completely dead inside. Who cares what happens to the price next. 😢
I'm not saying Michael Saylor didn't say those things. What I don't understand is how he could hold those positions in the 1st place. What is his endgame?
Should we still own BTC? Is there a major cryptocurrency more in line w/ our values?

The fact that this person just takes random pictures of girls from other social networks and posts them on InLeo got me cracking up 😂
I just post the best one I spotted every day. Just for the fun of it… 🤷🏼♂️
What are they to you... Fucking objects? That's just creepy dude..
Ouch, so it’s creepy that I repost pictures of people that advertise themselves on social media? Aren’t we being a bit overly feminist here…
Overly feminist? You ARE a dick. 😂😂😂
I take that as a compliment! Thanks!
Yup TD Wilson to Pickens with 27 seconds left before halftime. That interception was really bad. The Jets went from being up 9 to just 2.

I started on Hive clueless though someone invited me before (I think just for the referral rewards).
https://inleo.io/threads/view/bradleyarrow/re-leothreads-2sv45lw7f?referral=bradleyarrow
and I suffered because of it. I ask questions and now I understand the blockchain — how it works and how it gives reward to the users.
Although I am still a bit learning and doesn't understand some aspect of it.
I continue to learn.
Yeah, you will learn, there is no need to rush it. I've done all the way from having no clue of what I was doing and publishing random content to being a Hive Speaker on my country and working with Inleo... it took a while XD
Yep! It's been a long ride. We just grab opportunities.

Finally scraped together 99 HBD for a year of Premium through LeoDEX. Couldn't make it that last mile though, kept getting failures and ending up with Leo on ARB.
I made up the entirety of LeoDEX's volume for the day!
Finally capitulated and used a CEX swap service to finish it off. Got the HBD and bought Premium.
Can't wait until @khaleelkazi makes it smooth. Will be so nice!

I gotta say for how much I want to use LeoDEX there always seems to be major issues like this and then long support holds to get the funds. It's not a good look IMO
long support ???
You can always do it manually.
I have always had quick support responses.
outside looking in it always seems like people complaining for weeks about stuck transactions lol I'm just saying that's what most new users see which isn't good.
agreed.
Cant wait for VSC
I can't wait for simplegame's games!
I solved one of the problems, I realized I needed ETH-ARB or the swaps wouldn't go through.
Ah, I wish they had a dumbed down version of the swap where they just did it all even if it meant they took a little more of a fee. I feel like most people are looking for stupid simple and don't care about a 0.5% more fee because of it.
I hear that's what's being built for the Dash integration. Can't wait!
oh now that sounds dope!
I agree. To be honest, I have always had issues with their bridges. When they had the BSC and Polygon CUB bridges, I couldn't EVER get it to work, or there was never any liquidity.

En Venezuela no se sabe si esás triste por la falta de agua, porque el pote de mavesa es solo un recuerdo o solo porque hay tristeza en general.
Por aquí nos dan de dos a cuatro días con servicio de agua, gracias a que tengo tanque y la administro bien no me llega a faltar. Recojo agua de los aires acondicionados para mis plantas. Es una realidad muy dura. Agradecida por comentar.
Yo la llegué a vivir también. Por suerte, hace 6 años emigré, pero los pañales de tela de mi hijo menor los lavaba con agua de lluvia o del aire.

According to JPMorgan, which announced an imminent recovery of the crypto market last July, cryptocurrencies could thrive, notably thanks to a potential return of Donald Trump to the White House
#crypto #market
#crypto is going to thrive regardless of who wins the White House.
With companies like Blackrock all over it, we know Wall Street is taking over.
If Wall Street is going 2become part of the cryptocurrency landscape, then we need 2do all we can 2fortify the "Main Street" section of crypto. We may not B able 2avoid dealing w/ Wall Street, but we should minimize out interactions w/ it.
Well the difference is Wall Street excels at building things people can use. We have failed at that. Look at the UI, the lack of infrastructure and the time wasted pursuing stuff that made no sense.
Wall Street doesnt operate based upon how the world actually works. That is why they focus upon things like collateral as compared to simply payments.
Wall Street as an institution has also existed 4 centuries. It had time 2 grow, develop, & evolve. "Main Street" crypto is in its infancy. For now, we have 2survive whatever self-inflicted wounds we have long enough 2get smart about things.

That's nearly triple what the Treasury recovered in the previous fiscal year.
“It was really transformative,” Renata Miskell, a senior Treasury official, told CNN in a phone interview.
“Leveraging data has upped our game in fraud detection and prevention,” said Miskell.
The Treasury Department credited AI with helping authorities prevent and recover more than $4 billion in fraud in fiscal year 2024, a sixfold increase from the previous year.
US authorities quietly began using AI to detect financial crimes in late 2022, following the lead many banks and credit card companies already do to stop bad guys.
The goal is to protect taxpayer money against fraud, which increased during the Covid-19 pandemic, when the federal government struggled to disburse emergency aid to consumers and businesses.
It's clear that Treasury isn't using generative AI, the kind that has captivated users of OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini by generating images, creating song lyrics, and answering complex questions (although it still sometimes struggles with simple queries).
Instead, fraud detection efforts rely on machine learning, the subset of AI that excels at analyzing large amounts of data and making decisions and predictions based on what it has learned.
AI can be very useful in combating financial crime by sifting through near-infinite streams of data and detecting subtle patterns – all in a fraction of the time it would take a human to do so.
Experts say that once sophisticated AI models are trained, they can sniff out suspicious transactions in mere milliseconds.
“Fraudsters are really good at hiding. They are secretly trying to game the system,” Miskell said. “AI and leveraging data help us find these hidden patterns and anomalies and work to prevent them.”
Each year, the Treasury delivers about 1.4 billion payments valued at nearly $7 trillion to 100 million people. It's responsible for sending out everything from Social Security and Medicaid payments to federal worker paychecks, tax refunds and stimulus checks.
Online payment fraud is expected to exceed $362 billion by 2028, according to estimates from Juniper Research.
And some of this fraud is being boosted by AI itself.
US officials have expressed concern that AI will introduce new dangers into the financial system. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warned bankers in June that AI in finance poses “significant risks.”
It me.

Haha good one
I always thought the original Dash DAO was a better alternative to traditional taxes.
A portion of the rewards automatically goes to a community pool, and then spending proposals are voted on transparently and democratically.
But also, stakeholders get to choose where it goes, and they can choose to just not fund anything at all and collectively keep their money.
