What’s the risk of tech illiterate celebrities and influencers getting scammed through this new functionality?
I’d suggest reading the bitcoin white paper before implicitly suggesting that blockchain is a “scam”
Not saying bitcoin or crypto is a scam. I am suggesting there are scammers and malicious actors on the web that might find ways to take advantage of this new feature and get access to twitter users’ wallets and crypto contents.
Why iOS? Most people not on traditional banking systems aren’t out buying the latest iPhone 13 pro max
This is bigger than people realize
It’s integration and partnership with Strike API. Basically Twitter will use Bitcoin the network (not the asset) for payment network. It will not use the visa network, or paypal network etc but it will use the bitcoin network. Alice ~> USD ~> convert to BTC and send ~> on BTC payment rails (lightning network) ~> receive the BTC ~> convert to USD ~> Bob
Where can I read on how to implement something like this?
Search for andreas Antonopoulos & lightning network
It’s over for USD
