King James Bible is now inscribed on the Bitcoin blockchain. Clever use of unalterable, forever , decentralized information

I stack p2p on robosats and really would appreciate if you open a channel so I can get some inbound liquidity!

Some enterprising person figured out how to make sats fungible. (IE- make them as NFT). With the data being put on the blockchain at a ~75% discount.
Pro: Another use case for on-network transfer, more fees to miners, better security for the network
Con: real dumb use case, higher fees for people trying to move money, fills up pleb verifying nodes with “useless” crap.

What’s the best takedown of Bitcoin out there?
My answer: Bitcoin could fail because:
Most people on the planet have no savings ever
No new money/currency took hold in a society without violence historically
Freedom is really foreign concept to half the planet. Like, the idea that someone is “free” to use his money without constraints is not even considered in the realm of possibilities. I lived half of my life in the Middle East, this place would be the last to adopt Bitcoin because of #3
The fiat structure permeates everything in our society, Bitcoin doesn’t just change money, it changes everything. The more change something introduces, the harder it will be fought

Directly from author, great book, and for the price of a sandwich, tons of entertainment!

The triumph of written constitutions for law over the judgement of divine-appointed monarchs is hope.
Perhaps not yet, but one day written rules for money would triumph over the judgement of academic-appointed committees.

Larry doesn’t just have bad ideas - lots of people do. He sucks because he is a terrible human being without a shred of compassion to the unfortunate

Best thing about NOSTR being niche is that there is no risk of corpo people finding out your true feeling about their dumb ways and missing with your livelihood

Hard for the average person- agree it’s not too hard for a development background

It’s crazy to think how Bitcoin got with regular people running nodes - without a direct financial incentive. I think NOSTR might end up the same.
Hosting relays is hard now - but should get easier.
