$20-40 Billion of open interest long bitcoin was LIQUIDATED, Blackrock bought 45k bitcoins at $105k while plebs couldn’t smash buy down there on Strike. Then Blackrock got about a 10% gain over the week-end. Fixed that for you.

2025-10-12 22:32:50 UTC

Well, if you don’t mind investing with Blackrock, and having child sexual abuse on the same chain where you verify your money, then continue.
Sell that, if you can.

They want to turn bitcoin into BSV, let them fork it, this shouldn’t be a soft fork. This is not what I’d call a change with consensus.

What happens to perpetrators is irrelevant to the node operator, as once said content passed through consensus rules it has to be stored and shared, unless the node opts out of the network altogether, or in some way avoids part of the chain by running pruned. As far as I know, there is no pruned way to avoid csam with a pruned node as it is more about which blocks when, not content. And neither should someone who wants to run a full archive node have to comply with such things. I’m not a fed, and we’re not talking AML. It’s a fundamental difference between free speech and expectations to host and share things that are counter-productive to our species and to knowingly do so.

2025-09-07 14:05:47 UTC

The principles of the cypherpunks and free speech are one thing.
Expecting people to host and share things that go against their morals is quite the opposite.

You could just quote eric hughes: Cypherpunks seek your questions and your concerns and hope we may engage you so that we may not deceive ourselves. I think you may be focusing on the next line, where he says they will not be moved out of their course, and being disengenuous about that first part.

There’s a good chance I know that bitcoin doesn’t care, qnd I know I haven’t contributed to it as much as most of you.

Apparently the inventor of proof of work is cool with relaxing the filters cuz proof of work. I pointed out it’s insanity to not use the tool and to just let everything hit your inbox. But Bitcoin isn’t just a personal email. I’ve been running Bitcoin for years, routing lightning too. But there are certain types of jpegs I think could ruin the appeal of Bitcoin. I seek to maximally limit those tothe best of my influence. But if I must fail, I will notrun Bitcoin, and maybe Bitcoin will fail, maybe not. That’s not my call.

The problem is payments are taxable events and also, volatility.
So yes, Tether is becoming more popular, especially since it is a buyer of US treasuries. Stable for payments, little to no tax burden, and politicians are pushing it.
Bitcoin won’t die though. It’s like a very good battery while tether or government currency is just wiring to connect.

Fun fact: one time my dad fell asleep with his uniform on when he got back from war in vietnam.
An MP came up to him and told him he’s out of uniform (mustard spilled on it due to turbulence.
He told the military police he was outranked and that this uniform would never be worn again.
And then he went back to sleep.

I have a pixel phone running grapheneOS and I think now is a good time to start getting used to it, switching from iphone.
I’ve also been using Windows 10 for work/personal most of my life and don’t want to switch to Windows 11 on my personal older laptop.
So I’m thinking about switching to Fedora and and Graphene for regular personal use. I probably will need some help because my experience with linux so far has been one failure (of my own) after another, trying to get used to mint or ubuntu.
Can anyone share a good resource training to help terminally retarded windows users get used to fedora and graphene?

I don’t think people appreciate the qr enough for small transactions. Mobile phones internet capabilities didn’t really evolve until late 2000’s to be able to support this way of tdansacting. Ironically, people called bitcoin a dinosaur, as the shitcoin they were shilling was being extincted.
