The Bitcoin experiment has only just started. Self custody of an asset has arguably reached its highest level of accessibility.
Now to see if we wield it, or if humanity was always destined to fail.

There’s no defensible position why institutions should not have proof of reserves for Bitcoin.

They don’t need our tax payments, they need demand for dollars. In any case they can still inflate the currency to oblivion :p

The premise has always been “here’s the problem and somehow the solution is more government control”. Tell me when was the last time a government reduced oversight or control?

2024-09-10 07:33:29

How do I vote for less government? Is there an option on the ballot sheet?

Hash for hash, no large scale mining company can compete against solo miners mining at a loss. In an already painfully competitive market, doing my bit to make it ever so slightly more painful.. plus it looks pretty sick.

If you have a friend you’re trying to orange pill, consider some of my articles at www.bitcoinfoundations.org. Let me know if you have any comments or any specific topics you think might be useful.
It’s a bit of a project so still constructing it slowly.

Worse. From a friend working in cyber security for the defence force “it’s trivial to gain access to most smart phones. Between Zero click exploits, remote jail breaking, encrypted communication interception and social engineering for everything in between, you should consider all electronic devices compromised and treat them as such.”

2024-08-29 01:00:09

End to end encryption is great until you realise the ends are compromised. This is the unfortunate reality for most, if not all smart phones.

Both good news. I’d be terrified if my government was capable.

As sad as it is, we won’t truly win unless the majority understands this meme.

It was actually a quote from the star wars series Andor, but it resonated with me and the current state of the world.

There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.
Remember this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause.
Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.
Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.
Remember this: Try.

Wasn’t the first time fees > block subsidy, and definitely wont be the last. This was always the plan.

Should add these to Alex gladsteins list of bitcoin critics.

Running bet, if the BOE has 15% of its balance sheet in bitcoin, this goldbug will finally concede defeat.

I would love the scripts of any podcast Lyn Alden has been on and ask ChatGPT to explain it like I’m a 5 year old.

Bitcoin. Finally a security model that disincentivises violence.

Working on a bitcoin education site for beginners. Started off as a website to direct friends and family to orange pill (too much to talk about in a single talk). Hopefully it will become a place where people can logically work their way through the core concepts of bitcoin. I didn’t realise how hard it was to write articles, but halfway through.. another 2 sections left! LFG!

The Iraq war to this day is a war of reasons, of which maintaining the petrodollar was the most plausible. Iraq saw the “then they fight you” stage. We’ll find out soon the lengths they go to fight #bitcoin.
#Bitcoin is the final war. Everything is gained or lost on its outcome.

I probably don’t need to tell anyone here but just incase.. Liquidity is completely dried up. This means price swings in either direction can be made with very little volume. Stack sats and stay safe.

The bailouts are coming, and they are 100% going to blame Bitcoin for “Systemic Risk” in the financial system.

What the government tries to do doesn’t matter because they’ll try to do anything to stop bitcoin no matter what. If bitcoin fails because of that, it deserves to fail. Bitcoin was designed to resist for a reason.
Better arguments are against his actual core thesis (which in my opinion doesn’t really make a lot of sense)

Bitcoin is more than just money.
It's a decentralized network structured to obsolesce the notion of a central authority.
It's the most important technology of our modern world. Altcoins aren’t it’s competition, and we haven’t won yet.
