There's a political conference happening in Nashville soon...
Discussion
"Separating money from State.."
They are doing it wrong at Nashville.. but who am I to tell that?
'The state' is coming to Bitcoin though. Let there be a peaceful coexistence and transition into the Bitcoin standard, instead of bans and restrictions.
Sorry Rico, but I do think it's naive to think Politicians do care about what will be written behind their back, they care about being on a stage, and having a crowd to sell their speech and promises.
The Bitcoin standard IMO will be achieved by many type of adoption and transitions, but I do believe the more organic and successful way is the bottom up, where institutions can't do anything more than just accept the new system adopted gradually by the mass, or because they killed themselves with their own rotten one because none is more listening to them, not giving them the trust they need to exist.. giving them a stage is wrong IMHO.
INSTEAD POLITICIANS SHOULD GIVE PERIODICALLY A STAGE AT THE CONGRESS AND AT THE SENATE TO SOME BITCOINERS, SO THAT THEY COULD EXPLAIN WHY BITCON EXISTED, AND HOW SCAM THE FIAT SYSTEM IS. (speaking clearly, not shouting 🫂)
I just got an idea..

I fully agree. I'm saying that for as long as there is a window for peaceful coexistence, before Bitcoin swallows the system, let there be peace. The longer the govs of the world wait with their initiative to ban and restrict Bitcoin, the more unlikely their successes will be. If they, the politicians and their stooges, entangle themselves in Bitcoin's web right now, they will only fight over coins and dominance but not Bitcoin itself.
Ok, I see your point now, thanks for explaining further.. yes I do agree with you, more time passes, the higher the hashrate and the less the probability of them hurting the protocol itself.. 💜🤙🍀🔥🫂
Hashrate be damned if the ISPs receive order to cut every connection that syncs a node. It's a game of whack a mole but trivial to implement. We won't be syncing over Tor, that's for sure.
If the goal was to cripple the network, this is the simple stupid solution. The Lightning Network is almost completely custodial, it disappears instantly when AWS, Google, Hetzner, Alibaba shut down the accounts that run nodes.
This is always on the table, better let the greedy bastards who are on postions to give these kinds of orders play the stacking game.
We are in the peaceful coexistence phase at present.
Peaceful only because they still didn't get the shit their are in, and how #bitcoin could be the real alternative for the ones who understands it.
Bitcoin didn't get killed because they never give credit to it until "now", they missed the population to kill it, they are understanding just now that maybe the alternative is exploit people who use it to impose regulations and similar while they promise innovation and coexistence.. IMHO.
Who is going to suck who's dick?
Impressive lineup for sure
but very nice comments added to the speakers
very funny

wtf
I don’t know what the big deal is about Wood. She always puts everything she says at the feet of Art Laffer.
Thank god for pleb culture, developers noderunners, and cgyperpunks. Bitcoin is going mainstream but will wither away without its subculture.

Sometimes I question if (this way of thinking) even wants mass bitcoin use and acceptance or not.
This is what winning looks like.
Politicians and cult of personalities- grifting, co-opting, and eventually bending the knee.
Make sure you and those you care about are holding your own keys and running your own nodes.
After that if you don’t have anything nice to say then shut the fuck up and clap.
lol looks like a convention for retirement homes.
A bunch of people that have gained great wealth under the current system. I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t want to change it. Any one of these people speaking at a #BTC conference causes me great pause. Are the people running these conferences suckers or am I the victim of a great scam. Get out now or hodl🥺?
people forget, an eventual bitcoin standard means people you maybe find gross and reprehensible also wallowing in btc.
ruling elite aren't just going to not sure start milking it
