Conflict between two Loops developers turns into fedi drama - Lemmy.World
## Synopsis (trying to be neutral here) Hazycora[^1] was informally hired to
work on Loops web UI. Then Daniel[^2] posted about his idea to launch a video
ads network for Loops (which he latter admitted was a joke), and Hazycora
commented that such posts hurt people’s trust in him. This was followed by an
avalanche of mutual accusations, which I shall not dwell, as a result Hazycora
no longer works for Loops. ## Consequences * Accounts using “hazy.gay” email
domain were banned on loops.video with a fake dubstep-posting Kamala Harris
account as an excuse. This also breaks guest browsing on loops.gay. * Hazycora’s
username on loops.video was forcibly changed from single-letter “h” to
“hazellll”. * Disassemblies [https://github.com/pixeldesu/unloop] of the Loops
client were published on GitHub. * Hazycora says she has got more than $500 in
donations in the past two days; Daniel says his following count is growing, and
hers are going down; both claims need verification. ## Footnotes [^1]: Admin of
besties.house and git.gay. Created loops.gay, the first web client for Loops.
[^2]: Daniel Supernault (aka “dansup”). Creator of Pixelfed (federated Instagram
clone), Loops (federated TikTok clone), FediDB, fediverse.info
[http://fediverse.info], pubkit.net [http://pubkit.net] and yet unreleased Sup
messenger.
P.S. This analogy is only relevant if the number of crunchers is constant. The more people crunch, the more valuable each GRC is because of fixed rewards.

Two polls considering Gridcoin development were recently published by grctest,
you can find their proposal here:
https://github.com/gridcoin-community/Gridcoin-Tasks/issues/268
[https://github.com/gridcoin-community/Gridcoin-Tasks/issues/268] Putting aside
concerns about active use of LLMs in creating this proposal (I think Gentoo was
right when they banned all contributions created with the assistance of
generative AI[https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Council/AI_policy
[https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Council/AI_policy]][^1]), let’s focus on
economy. First important thing thing to emphasize: cryptocurrency is not money
or currency, it is a non-financial asset, like gold. This is consensus among
mainstream and post-Keynesian economists, as far as I know. Suppose there is a
gridgold mine (the only in the world) that produces 37,600 units of gridgold
daily. There is another unused mine nearby, where mining is less difficult, and
because of that it can yield 5 times more gridgold than the current mine with
same amount of work. So what happens after the switch to the latter mine?
Economic actors (more precisely, a rational part of them) will act on their
inflation expectations. This means selling their gridgold savings and not buying
any gridgold until some normalization. The consequences will be decrease in
demand for gridgold and falling market price. Savings of those who haven’t had a
chance to sell their gridgold will be burnt by inflation. — I think it’s the
opposite of what the Gridcoin community would want.
