So this is like Medium but with monetised upvotes? Who would pay for upvotes? (and in particular, for a subscription)

Subscribers. Creators can mark their posts as free, as I have done here, but if posts are not marked free you have to subscribe to view them.

Unless you're a seed user (first 1000 people who sign up), then you don't have to subscribe to view non-free posts.

Just started to copycat your code to rust, not yet finished, continuing tomorrow

Just today I started to look into RLPx to do some basic network discovery, so your guide is quite nice to have as a reference. But I had some difficulties getting started, because the RLPx spec was not simple to find (ethereum wiki -> devp2p -> RLPx) and is quite terse. I myself wasn't able to decode the packet structure.

Looking into ethereum related stuff I often get the feeling that one already needs to know half of ethereum quite decent to learn something new, which makes it hard to even get started.

Reading your guide (am not finished yet) gives me a better picture of the things I actually need to do, to start discovering some nodes, so I'm really thankful for that and hope for more beginner targeted ethereum content.

You should add a button or some kind of subscription opt-in add the end. I just want to be notified for the future updates in this series.

Hi, I'm the author of RLPx. Great post and thank you for sharing! Looking forward to more.

I really enjoyed your post and look forward to reading the series. I would suggest you try out Steemit.com as this is their business model as well, they already have a large community, and this type of post/series would be like catnip over there.

Since Dropbox episode we don't tell people that nobody has any usage of their product.

Of course, us maximalists all know Bitcoin is the pinnacle and can never be improved on. /s

Except any reasonably complex interactions between parties which may or may not be accounting applications yet still need a distributed system of trust.

Which includes a few trillion dollar industries.

Registered assets are always more secure and cheaper than bearer assets. And if you needed bearer assets, there's multisig, which does everything turing complete code does, cheaper and more secure

Its the interactions between assets, agreements and trusted devices which opens up possibilities greater than the scope of this thinking.

I don't talk to their developer teams so I wouldn't know. I wouldn't expect them to move quickly enough for that to have been publicly announced by now. My guess is either ethereum or hyperledger fabric depending on how much of their system they would want completely public. Queries per second is a huge concern there too, so it might be a while off for NYSE for this reason alone.

You may be right about this.
