Last Notes npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Is Bitcoin a poor man’s Hedge against inflation. That’s what Brian Armstrong said. I kind of like it! Fck the rich man, give the poor man a way to beat their game. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I think it’s important to note, that it does not matter whether or not quantum is just around the corner, or decades away. It will arrive. The sooner it’s resolved the better. Indeed another Crypto besides Bitcoin may solve the problem sooner. If that should happen, then most likely, a lot of people might see that as being a better place to store their wealth instead of worrying whether or not Bitcoin will reach consensus on a solution. That could be Bitcoins problem before quantum ever arrives. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I am doing the lawful thing now regarding Bitcoin. If I turn it into dollars, or exchange it in any other way, I will pay the Capital Gains taxes as it has been lawfully ordained. I didn’t vote for that, but obviously somebody did. I don’t like it, and I don’t know how anybody could like having the government swipe any of your hard earned fortune without any risk on their part at all. I will say this however. If my government attempts to confiscate my wealth, or they inflate their own system to a point that I cannot put food on my table, I will denounce my citizenship. I will move to a more favorable jurisdiction, and I will refuse to pay my capital gains to a country I know longer belong to. I paid for the Bitcoin with their dollars, but I had already paid their taxes on those dollars used. They can chase me to the ends of the earth to get more if they want to. Good luck with that. This is the promise of Bitcoin. I can take it with me anywhere, and spend it anytime I want without their permission. It’s not theirs to permit. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Let the war begin. If you know somebody that thinks they own Bitcoin, and it’s on exchange or in an ETF, make them aware, they don’t own Bitcoin and they have no business owning it if they don’t understand it. If they are here to increase their fiat bag, they own it for the wrong reason. It’s the real Bitcoiner that drives the value. Not the Corporation or Government that locks it up in a vault. Real Bitcoiners know how to self custody, buy, sell, exchange,and use the real deal. They know how important nodes are. They even may be running a mining rig, regardless if it’s profitable or not. It’s important now to lead people out of the moral decay of Wall Street and into the light. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I like Jack Maller of Strike, but think he should get out of the price predicting game. Should instead talk about expansion or use. Maybe in terms of user expansion in numbers of people, businesses, new wallets, new addresses. Maybe showing % of involvement in the protocol. Price predicting is a fools game. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft How do we make the ETF buyers recognize they are better off to buy the real deal. Self custody needs to be less scary. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I wonder if Satoshi ever imagined that eventually all Bitcoin would be lost to unrecoverable wallets npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft All this noise of Wall Street, and Governments accumulating Bitcoin is a bother. Don’t know why so many pushed for that. Bitcoin should continue to grow and improve as the best money in the world at the grass roots level. No Hullabalu about it. Just genuine use by the everyday man. Growing at ground zero in the back countries of developing nations, and on the streets of small town shops that learn to use and take in Bitcoin as payment for their down home products and services. Forget about locking up gargantuan amounts of coins in ETF’s and Government Treasuries. That’s not where real money should be sitting, doing nothing. Bitcoin can grow quietly without a lot of fanfare and attention. The people that find it on their own, without being pushed into it for the promise of a quick buck are the true believers in its potential. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Let’s face it. If quantum proofing is going to work, then addresses that don’t move are going to be vulnerable. If you give everybody 2 years to move coins to quantum proof addresses, and some don’t move, you have to figure those people lost their keys, are dead, or not interested. Either way those coins are gone for them forever. Lock them so they can’t be stolen. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I might understand trading stocks in a company. There are things about companies that you may be able to understand by studying the success of the company you are investing in. But, Blows my mind that traders trade Bitcoin. They’re just doing it to build their stack of Fiat larger. Trading Bitcoin is a fools endeavor. Somewhere between 75% and 95% lose their money trading Bitcoin. Bitcoin should be bought to save with it, till you can use it to buy something you really want or need. If Bitcoin were not traded, and instead used as it was designed to be used, its value would rise in a steadier slower predictable manner. With traders, the whole thing is a big gut wrenching roller coaster of emotional turmoil. With most traders ending up throwing in the towel, and moving on to something more predictable. Like sports betting! The bad news is that traders will not stop trading. Manipulators will not stop manipulating, even tho they may be out manipulated by another manipulator. The good news is that if you zoom out, and don’t fall into the traders trap, then the value of Bitcoin does grow steadily, and will continue to grow steadily as people that do understand what Bitcoin really is use it the way its supposed to be used. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft The software might be good, but it’s been reported that the law enforcement agency in charge of this investigation has evidence that the developers were in direct contact with criminal organizations, and was suggesting they could conduct business using their software to avoid detection. That, if true looks bad for these developers. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft 3I/Atlas is a seed seeking a solar system with a planet to crash into, to impregnate and create life. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft When you say JP (Morgues) you are absolutely correct. Old farts like JP belong in the morgue npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft good luck with cashapp proposal. want to get out in my own community to get merchants excepting Bitcoin npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft That way you would have government that serves the people, rather than people that serve the government npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Hey all! Have patients with NSTR. It’s doing just fine. X is everybody’s go to for now, but it’s centralized nature will trip it up sooner or later. And no wallet for tips over there. Missing the point, I think. If you give something your time and energy, and somebody appreciates you for it, it should reward you something more than just a ❤️ npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Back in time the larger % of people into Bitcoin knew what they were doing, and knew how to handle Bitcoin. As time goes by the number of persons that want exposer to Bitcoin has grown, but the % of persons that know how to use it is diminishing. So many new comers are not interested in how it works, or how to safely keep it. All they want is for some corporation to hold it for them, and tell them that they will be insured that they have no need to know anything about it. That the corporation will take care of all that for them. As the utility of Bitcoin grows, especially in places where financial inclusion is not a given, then many more of these newcomers will eventually learn how to do Bitcoin the right way. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft That’s because your leaving with their money. It never was really yours. That’s why we Bitcoin. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft My take on this, is our planets ability to support our population. Apparently, new technology in food production and transportation of food to our tables has somewhat been keeping up. Still a lot of people going hungry in the world. However our technology to produce more food is seemingly having some effect on the quality of the food. Not only just the taste, but also the nutritional value. It may be natural, and even good to see a decline for awhile npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Apparently, a lot of people are bitch’in right now that things are not going well for them in Crypto. I don’t blame them if they dipped their toes too deep into Alt Coins, but many also not happy with Bitcoin. They say that Wall Street, Government, and Whales are manipulating too much. Bitcoin was meant to be for everybody. Even for people you don’t like. Wall Street, Government, and even Whales can only manipulate things so much. At some point, with patients, something as good as Bitcoin will break the chains that try to enslave it. For now, it’s doing exactly what it’s supposed to do. Anybody anywhere can use it without permission. Tick Tock, Next Block! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft The only reason you had privacy in the past is because you were flying under the radar. Radar has gotten much better. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Good rant - Thanks npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Somebody made a God awful lot of Fiat dollars with inside information shorting Bitcoin the other day. There are people out there that got burned by this manipulation. That’s why I’m not a fan of traders. If you HODL, you really have nothing to fear. All traders will get burned sooner or later. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Remember! Not in your bullion box, not your gold. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Retail only gets hurt when they try to out trade the insider. If retail just buys and holds, they don’t usually get hurt. Same for stocks. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Beginning to think an AI is better to govern people. No ego to feed. Not power hungry. No need to have more creature comforts, than anybody else. Just the fairest solutions for the majority of persons. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Drop this nonsense, and get to work on quantum resistant address migrations now. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft A beautiful Tuesday afternoon in the park. Me checking out my NOSTR feed, while my wife shops the boutiques. Me trying to figure out what jewelry she would like for combination birthday/anniversary coming up very soon. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft What if: eventually everyone that wants to transact with the blockchain has to have an up and running miner, and also a node. There could be something in the transaction that points to the existence of those that would not allow the transaction to process unless those were in place. It would certainly decentralize the mining community. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Hodl Hodl npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Exactly why a dime store turned into a dollar store, and is now becoming a $5 store. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Hippies had a good idea, but when they became Cocaine driven Yuppies, it all went bad. It’s not difficult to follow the progression in the music. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Socialism looks great on the ground, until you realize that the hole you’re digging is your own grave. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Maybe the American Party will be able to release the Epstein client list! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Oh yea, know of him. Bitcoin Jesus. Does not seem to care for the lime light as he used to. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Just started watching #mrrobot . Crazy stuff. Expecting some major twist and turns in this story. Wondering how this addiction thing will end up for the main character. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Yep, so maybe Satoshi knew that the cryptography protecting Bitcoin could one day be cracked. So Satoshi burned the private keys in Satoshi’s possession, and left it up to the future community to figure out how to handle it. The program could be changed to forever keep all lost keys from ever being accessed. A miner cannot mine a non quantum resistant address after any Private key cryptography is broken. Old addresses Lost forever. Or, somehow released in an equitable fashion back into the community. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft It’s apparent that in the future, a quantum computer will be able to break the cryptography of old addresses that have not moved to new quantum resistant addresses. It would be nice if a Bitcoin organization will use a quantum computer to move those coins back to the blockchain, so that they can be re-mined properly to be redistributed to a new generation of Bitcoiners that understand how to properly protect their Bitcoin. Still only 21 mil. Will ever exist. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I can’t agree with the US dollar being used as a weapon. Sanctioning is designed to use the dollar to force an adversarial government to do what our government wants them to do. At some point, if this were to be a successful way of controlling governments, then at what point would they use this tactic on its own citizenship to control them. Sanctions weaken the money, and force people to find another source of exchange to avoid these controls. Sanctions also do more harm to the innocent citizenship of sanctioned countries then it does to their ruling class. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Engineers of late here, built the St.Luis Arch by starting on the ground a 2 ends, and building it up to meet in the middle at the top. Hmmm! They miss calculated, and the 2 builds did not meet. Therefore they needed to use some very heavy jacks, to jack the two sections together to finish the welds. Maybe they should have consulted with ancient Roman engineers! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Elon Musk claims that if Humans do not become a space fairing civilization, that we will eventually become extinct. Non-existant. What if, some ancient advanced civilization on earth had already found it’s way into space before some cataclysmic event here on earth. Could be they are out there, and maybe could not find their way back home. Or even better, they found new amazing worlds, and see no purpose in returning here. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Give it some time to work. If it causes some problems, abandon it for a better solution. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I don’t agree with deportation, and the cost monetarily, and emotionally that it is upon our country. I do believe in stopping illegal immigration. I also believe that nobody here illegally already should be subsidized in anyway by our government. I don’t think they should be able to work here, unless they apply for a work permit, and pay into our social security system. If an Illegal is arrested or charged for any crime, I don’t think they have a right to our legal system. If they are here illegally and charged with a crime, then deport them to their home country. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I said this before. Bitcoiners got him in, but he’ll turn his back on Bitcoin also. As soon as he finds out he can’t control it, and he cow tow’s to the Banking Cabal. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft No matter what good you do, there is always somebody out there that will be harmed by your actions. It’s the way of the world. Strive to limit the harm you do by listening, and strive to do as much good as you can. That’s all anybody could really ask of themselves. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Just my 2 SATs on the Quantum Debate. I think that after Quantum resistant addresses are approved, owners of Bitcoin are given a fair amount of time to move their Bitcoin to these new addresses. After which, then Old Addresses that have not moved are Time locked for 180 days after a transaction has been submitted to be mined. After which these time locked Bitcoin are only able to be sent to pre-approved Exchange Addresses for which the owners have been KYC’d properly. That would certainly slow down their release back into the community, and we would know what company or individuals were using Quantum computers to break the old code. Doing this may even give original owners of lost keys the ability to claim thru legal avenues that those were their coins. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I had a dream! That investors selling Bitcoin with the hopes of rebuying them at a cheaper price, are finding out that the persons buying their Bitcoin have no plans to sell them. Then when those sellers want to rebuy at the lower price, they won’t be able to find anybody to buy them from. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Was just listening to Trevor CTO talk about post Quantum attack on Bitcoin. Interesting! I’d like to get my vote in early. If someone fires up a quantum computer, and breaks the Cryptography on any coins not moved into Quantum resistant addresses, then they should get to keep them. But better yet, how about if someone were to AirDrop those recovered coins on a percentage basis into Quantum resistant addresses of people that already moved their coins. That would be way cool. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft What if; Bitcoin was updated to quantum resistant. All you had to do is move your Bitcoin to a quantum resistant address. Then somebody with a quantum computer started with oldest first Bitcoin addresses that have not been moved to quantum resistant addresses, and moved those Bitcoin to a treasury. Let’s say this fellow is an honest someone, that wants people that owned those coins to get them back, even if they were lost or forgotten. If those persons could somehow prove those were theirs they would be returned via a quantum resistant address. I believe that over all, that would be good for Bitcoin. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Judging per your profile, you should know more than I on this subject. My understanding was that quantum could break current encryption. A simple address type change could prevent it. Although, old lost addresses would not be able to update their addresses. Tell me I’m wrong! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Blackrock recently warned investors of the dangers of quantum computers to break encryption on Bitcoin. Bitcoin can easily be made quantum resistant. The only problem, if you really feel it is one, is that only old lost, or Satoshi addresses will be able to be hacked. Personally, I don’t see that as a problem. Maybe even a blessing. These old coins will be recirculated into the economy. As they are bought up, the price may fall and then eventually recover. Always need to remember, there only can be 21 million coins in all. No matter how hard we try, there will always be more lost coins in the future. Not as many hopefully as there were originally, as we learn more about how to protect those valuable assets. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft What’s wrong with keeping NOSTR simple, like Twitter in the beginning. Use links for the big downloads of media files. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Time for an anonymous developer and a decentralized mixer. Good luck taking that down! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Tell me if I’m wrong. Bitcoin mining centralization is not a problem as long as there are individuals outside of the big mining farms that still hash, and have a chance to win a block. When the big farms feel that it’s no longer profitable to mine, the individual farmers that have been there all along without any great hope that they would win a block, will hash on. If the mining farms attempt to change consensus of the block chain to advance their profiteering, then it will be up to the community to block those efforts. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Me npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Days ago when all we got from China were drink umbrellas. Then we industrialized them. Why wouldn’t they think that one day thru their hard labors that they too could live the kind of lives we have here in America. But what if they achieved that, who then would provide a cheap workforce that would provide for our excessive needs. We would be constantly challenged to find the next community that thru their hard cheap work will support our excessive needs. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft There was a time in the past when a starting out company with a good idea needed money to get going and an investor could put his money into that company to help out. In return, that company would pay dividends, or thru its growth the shares you own in that company would appreciate in value. Now, thru leverage trading, derivatives etc. stocks trading at 50x forward earnings, it’s a big gambling hall, fixed game mess. Feels like a cigar smoke filled cock fight with cash being passed between shady dark figures in ally ways. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft It seems like the North Koreans are being a bit of a pest. They originally get their educations in IT in America. They then take it home to further hone their skills and teach others how to Hack. The Lazarus Group has netted millions of US dollars for their government. Then since 2018, and with illegal immigration into the US much easier they use Fake IDs to infiltrate IT, and Tech jobs in Fortune 500 companies here in the US. They not only funnel their salaries back to North Korea, they also can funnel information, and even plant virus’s into systems for future attacks. All of these funds they earn for their country are used to further Kim Jong Un’s vision of being a Nuclear Super Power. It won’t be easy, but these people need to be weeded out and deported ASAP. The safety of the World is at Stake. I’m sure they will make mistakes in whom they deport, but better safe than sorry is a good saying here. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Nice job Jack! Keep it up. I’d really like to see Bitcoin decouple from the US dollar. Instead a gallon of milk now 8700 SATs. A year from now a gallon of milk 4000 SATs. Start thinking Product and Services in SATs. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft This is hilarious! I believe there are people out there that will fall for this; npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I wish that Bitcoin Short term holders/traders will get burned, stay burned, and never come back. Bitcoin does not need these people that only believe in Bitcoin as a tool to stack more Fiat. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Hope people are doing proof of reserves. Even Fort Knox isn’t verified. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Murphy’s Law! Accidents happen because they can. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I feel that for every person whose rhetoric incites criminal violence, should know the names of the persons that committed crimes on their behalf, and the penalty of prison or fines that they received. And that those persons that incited these people should have a list of those names connected to their profiles that may never be deleted. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Persons that are inciting others to commit crimes of violence need to know that those person incited will be caught, and will face jail time and fines on your behalf. Do you feel good about that? npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Weaponizing a currency, is just a bad idea. War is another Bad Idea. Why can’t we all respect each other’s Sovereignty. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I think I heard somewhere that this guy is gambling stolen/hacked coins. The real crime here is leverage trading. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft It strikes me as funny how some people think that their digital gold is a safer investment than Bitcoin. They really believe that the paper certificate they hold for the gold is really sitting in somebodies vault somewhere. So whoever is in charge of that database that says that this is their gold cannot be corrupted in any way. They’ve been brainwashed. Nothing you can do about it. They will never understand Bitcoin. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Secrecy is the bedrock of their wealth creation. Without it they would have nothing. It’s a religion to them. The only way to break their grip on it, is for many to keep digging to find them out. In some cases a very dangerous endeavor. When you’re on to them things get dicey. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Elon & Trump still believe in the US dollar. They don’t know how broken it is, and it can’t be fixed. The corrupt have sucked the life out of it. They control so much of it, and won’t let go of it. The only solution is to let them inflate it out of existence. When people turn their backs on it, then these corrupt individuals will be stuck holding worthless bags of shit that will not pay for their luxuries. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft The IMF is demonstrating that they are the true ruler of your country, and there is nothing you can do about it. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft If the US were to announce that there would be no capital gain on Bitcoin for the next 4 years, would you sell your Bitcoin. If your answer is yes, then you will have to admit that you think the US dollar is better money than Bitcoin. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft So, whoever made that conversion will be screwed when they roll back the chain. Right? npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Someone should start a movement. I except Lightning Bitcoin Tips. A sticker or a badge that a service worker could wear at work, that lets you know they except tips in that form of money. Could incorporate a way to put a QR code on the badge. Great way to get Waiters, Waitresses, Bartenders, Musicians and such into the groove of being orange pilled. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft 1 Bitcoin = 1 Bitcoin. Fiat value is meaningless 🤬 npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Does anybody else think we should just forget about this government Bitcoin reserve thing, and just get on with making Bitcoin easier for the everyday person and business that wants to spend and receive Bitcoin on an everyday basis. Build it better and everybody will come attitude. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Isn’t XRP just trying to be the world central bank, where as they control the flow of currency in and out of the economy, and reward there friends with new releases of it before the common people get it and it’s value is diminished by then. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Tell me I didn’t see this coming! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I was concerned that Trump did not really understand Bitcoin. Now confirmed! What the F npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I saw that post. That was shot over Ripples bow. Now Ripple has a lot of money to pump into that administration. Just saying. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Does anybody else think Trump will support Ripple, but side step on Bitcoin? npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Not a lot. Transaction incl. tipping, bitcoin games I play winning Sats, and moving Bitcoin around in wallets npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Running an umbrella lightning channel with 4 or 5 connections for 3 or 4 years now. Never a problem. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I’ve talked to couple local small businesses recently in my neighborhood. Mostly Pubs, and restaurants. Some won’t take a credit card any longer, and some are adding 3.5% on to the bill to take the credit card. There margins are too tight to take the hit the credit card companies are charging them. On top of that, some have to wait between 30 and 60 days to be paid by the credit card company. Creates cash flow problems. If you tip on the credit card, the staff has to take it on their paycheck. They wait for that too. They also suffer income tax on those tips. Credit cards are real convenient. That’s why we use them to buy stuff. Watch out however, if you do not pay them off right away. Get yourself in loads of bad debt if not handled responsibly. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Let the government continue their game of Wack-A-Mole. Wack a Tick Tock, and 2 more will show up. But yes, the government will have a hell of a time trying to shut this down. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft I agree! We will sooner or later need to start moving that HODL mass thru the economy. Would just like to see it passing between the people (Bitcoiners), not thru Wall Street. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft If you, or your group are not paying attention, then the persons that you put in charge of important matters will eventually make decisions that are in their own self interest. It will even attract bad actors to those positions for self enrichment. If you create an environment where those put in charge of important decisions are quickly exposed of any wrong doings, then those persons will tend to make selfless decisions for the good of the community. Americans have not been paying attention. Now, social media platforms, especially decentralized ones, have the power to expose the wrong doers very quickly. Causing the public to quickly rise up and punish the wrong doers. This will set up for persons with good intentions to seek out the positions of public trust. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Kind of wondering if an outgoing president will do things in his last days in office to sabotage the incoming president. Seams in 2 party system with different ideologies, that this might be standard operating procedure. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft It’s not difficult to understand that some believe Bitcoin to be some kind of Ponzi scheme. Yes, too few people that got in early and or Whales control too large a percent of all available. And some may feel that the early in will cash out and leave the late comers holding a worthless bag. That’s how Ponzi schemes work. At this time, due to the tax implications, most will hodl, down on this asset. That’s not the ideal use case for it. Holding it does nothing to prove its real value. Its worldwide permission-less, unhackable distribution is its true strength. As soon as it is excepted as a payment system, that is not taxed like a commodity or security, then it will start to flow freely into the wallets of everyday users, whom will use it in there everyday life. The idea that it might be a Ponzi will disappear, and give way to the fact that in this internet age, it’s the best money ever conceived of. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Looks to me like with rule changes that may be coming to how we will be reporting our Bitcoin to the IRS that we may not need to report person to person, and person to business transactions if it does not involve the purchase of Real Estate or Securities. We will be incentivized to keep Bitcoin off exchanges to avoid capital gains taxes. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Just remember, that there will be truth, and not so true. The real benefit is we the people get to hear all, and decide for ourselves. npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Ohhh! Bad trip, literally! npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Sorry man, I found it quite insightful.

Who would you custody your Bitcoin with to borrow for a large purchase? npub1dxeg0dk95wdxetvtj7zqep6tn8eqffkzz7h056njraa8uajqr5jsr92cyj Coney_Croft Privacy already exists if you need it. Buy from non-KYC sources. Do not exchange into fiat currencies thru KYC exchanges. Trade Bitcoin for service and product with bitcoiners that understand this principle. They’ll never know who you are.
