taiwan: where the kmt (see: the government of china between the 1910s and 1940s) fled after the communists took control. it identifies as the republic of china.
taipei: the capital of taiwan.
tibet: under the jurisdiction of the people's republic of china, taken over most recently during the 1950s i believe. may have been a part of qing china in prior centuries, but i'm not too well versed in qing history. not really culturally chinese iirc.

nft artwork will go down in history like beanie babies, and its omnipresence on crypto twitter is annoying, though some of the artwork to be found is admittedly pretty aesthetically pleasant and/or creative

the erc-721 standard and its equivalents, however, will likely supplant more institutional forms of drm and cross-platform authentication down the road

Can someone explain mining to me like I just learned what a computer was yesterday?

it's computers competing to compute the "lowest" sha256 hash (see: with the most preceding zeros) in a certain timeframe. it's been years since reading the paper, but if i recall, the information passed to the hash function includes datetime, certain information about the miner's address (private key - or was it public key? - hash), previous block, etc. this establishes a computationally verifiable "winner" to the rest of the network that cannot be falsified, and becomes the basis of the new block.

because it is very computationally complex to do, it's extremely difficult for hostile actors to inject fraudulent blocks (and thus transactions) into the chain and thus alter the ledger history without somehow computing far faster than everyone else in the network, at least in larger networks.

anyway, the winner is awarded newly issued tokens by the network as a reward for securing the blockchain, and depending on the network in question, entitled to collect transaction fees for all transactions included in the newest block's timeframe. transactions are usually prioritized by fees posted.

so in short, mining is basically the motor that powers a self-perpetuating network establishing cryptographically secure consensus on the date-time of ordered events.
