What is a Socratic Seminar?

Socratic seminars are named for their embodiment of Socrates’ belief in the power of asking questions, and valuing inquiry and discussion. Socratic seminars acknowledge the highly social nature of learning.

The Socratic seminar is a formal discussion, based on a text, in which the organizer asks open-ended questions. Within the context of the discussion, participants listen closely to the comments of others, thinking critically for themselves, and articulate their own thoughts and their responses to the thoughts of others. They question intelligently and civilly.

Local news

Op_Net is in town!

​

OP_NET is the first fully expressive smart contract metaprotocol on Bitcoin Layer 1—no bridges, no sidechains, no trust assumptions. Just Bitcoin.

Think Ordinals unlocked NFTs. OP_NET unlocks everything else: DeFi, DAOs, gaming, RWAs, and more.

Covenants … BitVM?

Could BitVM replace Covenants?

  • BitVM doesn’t do covenants… so instead they do
    • Covenant emulation.
    • Creating a multisig that pools many UTXO’s
    • CTV/CSFS likely not powerful enough to remove the need for mutisig
  • But can it do those things economically?
  • Different types of BitVM
    • BitVM1
    • BitVM2
    • Garbled Circuits… BitVM3?
  • GC…Garbled Circuits, is very economical.
