The bananas weren’t stolen, they were sold to the gorilla in return for seed distribution services. The tree wants the gorilla to distribute the banana seed within a fertiliser package (poop) some distance away. And the gorilla wants calories, which the tree can endlessly produce using solar power. It’s a fair trade.
Didn't the banana plant (not a tree, technically) produce that banana using nutrients stolen from the soil, carbon dioxide stolen from the air, energy stolen from the sun, etc.?

He does not mean companies operating in the unregulated crypto space. He means the author of articles like this one.

Do I understand this correctly that you need to safely store your random grid since only the pattern is in your head? Losing the grid would then essentially mean you can't access your keys anymore even though someone else also can't. But maybe I overlooked something. Will take another look tomorrow.
However, I want to mention the technique of making up a story to remember the seed words. I found this to be fairly easy so I am not sure how this grid can be more useful than that.
But still a very cool and interesting idea! Thanks for sharing. (You even made me create a HN account to post my first comment)
Yes, you are correct - you need to store your grid and you can do that via a physical print, digital storage (including a native encryption option), and a recovery phrase for deterministic grids (12 words). The latter provides the means to storage the grids in the same way you would a normal seed phrase, but with an added layer of security against evil maid attack. The provides the ability to use a decoy too. Gridception is also an option, explained on our website.
And I don't think animals see this banana as "property of the gorilla" as you suggested.
I think they see it as "if I try to take this banana from that gorilla, I will get slapped"
