Twitter vs Nostr in two images.

Can’t block me here nostr:nprofile1qqs8fl79rnpsz5x00xmvkvtd8g2u7ve2k2dr3lkfadyy4v24r4k3s4spz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszythwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn99u4m9xal and nostr:nprofile1qqs0m40g76hqmwqhhc9hrk3qfxxpsp5k3k9xgk24nsjf7v305u6xffcprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm4wfex2mn59en8j6f0qyfhwumn8ghj7mmxve3ksctfdch8qatz9ujw9zmd 😇

Give me your preferred wording of the prediction market, or take me up on the on chain trustless one I proposed.

Also, any futures market you support I’ll be able to post screenshots of the odds anyway, so you’re really in a pickle, trying to make it about me and not the greater point I’m making.

Ball is in your court, and even if you think I’m trolling, you’re letting me troll you a lot more by not taking up the bet than avoiding it and not picking up guaranteed bitcoin from your perspective.

There isn’t 1 BTC of conviction in you side of the fork? That’s not a good signal.

I love nostr:npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk ; I have no doubt his intentions are good, even if current efforts aren’t exactly 100% spot on, I guarantee you he is _not_ directionally wrong.

Taproot also messed up with keypath disabling for quantum resistance, which is part of why legit uses for TR haven’t taken off…no set of humans will be perfect at forecasting the future. If Luke has ideas for fixing TR, I say we listen, even if we all understand that Op_Return stuff is largely a sideshow.

Why are you stalking them? If they don’t want to talk to you, you should respect their decision. @Jameson Lopp blocked me on Twitter (don’t know why). But while I never bothered him there, I won’t certainly disturb him on #Nostr.

WTF is wrong with you? Stop the dunking. Aren't you running a business that needs future clients?

On nostr we can just mute you instead of blocking.

Same effect, because get this, we don't want to see you and all the other perverts that promote adding child porn to the blockchain.

Bitcoin is money, put your fucking spam on ethereum, put your fucking childporn on a different chain.

We've already seen this play out before.

The blockchain without childporn will retain the title of Bitcoin.

It’s adorable that you think a bip-444 chain won’t be able to house arbitrary data.

Yeah, but still don't answer when I tell you your bet model doesn't work for both parties.

Also, you are antagonizing moralists into gambling? Seems like you really haven't thought any of this through have you?

So the BTC side was immoral for using a futures market in 2017? Sounds like a bcash argument to me

JackTheMimic 1mo ago

Gambling is immoral so, yeah. Also, have you figured out your bet makes no technical sense yet?

Signaling to miners you won’t put Bitcoin up won’t work great for you in a fork

So, with your bet as set:

If I lose, I lose a bitcoin.

If I win, I lose a bitcoin.

Sounds like a bad bet to me.

You should probably sell all your bitcoin now if you think Bitcoin dies if the fork fails.

Why is it that you change the subject and ascribe a position to me that I don't hold?

Boy, I see why you set up rigged bets for non-technical fools.

I don’t think you understand the bet. One side gets 2 btc if bip 444 activated, the other side gets it if bip 444 does not activate, in a chain split each side gets 2 btc on their respective chain.

It literally wouldn't work the way you structured it. All 4 transactions have an OP_IF condition which means none of them are valid on the UASF chain, even if it was the highest chain. YOU don't know what the BIP does.

Mechanic says he betted his whole stash on fork futures in 2017, so I’m sure understands the concept at least: https://youtu.be/Lf5rqg61aYU?si=ayWBuCA_Hd5HSiT5&t=4503
