I was convinced jack (nprofile…l90s) Dorsey was one of its biggest supporters - and yet here we are, watching the start of a “rebrand Bitcoin” campaign.
First it was BIP-177.
Then “bits” instead of sats.
Then seedless wallets.
Now Square terminals showing bitcoin payments in bits - with fiat as the default reference point.
Yes - many wallets show fiat. That’s not new.
But stack all these moves together, and you start to see a pattern.
It’s not just UX - it’s narrative soft-forking.
Bitcoin is being reshaped for easier fiat onboarding, not deeper user sovereignty.
And I thought NOSTR and Bitcoin were building the future -
Not adapting to the past.
Dorsey and Carvalho are moving in lockstep - and I call bullshit.
Both claim the current state of Bitcoin is “confusing” without offering a shred of proof.
No surveys. No community polls. Nothing.
Just vibes, authority - and an organized attempt to fracture an already fragile Bitcoin community.
And they’re doing it at the most critical moment.
As Bitcoin crosses 100k.
As states begin adopting it.
As businesses start plugging in.
This is when we need unity - around the ethos, not the branding.
Because if we don’t hold the line now, the cypherpunk dream will be co-opted by the same corporate forces Bitcoin was meant to replace.
Jack plays the empire.
Carvalho plays the mouthpiece.
And we’re watching them rewrite the narrative in real time.
