remember proxystudio

aka gabagool.eth?

remember when that VC attacked the Pope for recommending moral discernment?

probably the same had he been recommending logical consistency.

Bitcoin is simply consistent, without the adjectives in the podcast circuit.

PoW just works.

hang it in the Louvre

too much navel-gazing baked into the algorithm

parasocial pissing contest is cringe.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

build fun stuff for Main Street that kills their math taxes.

can people play casino games and next-gen lottery and bet on real events?

can people crowdsource work and crowdfund moonshots?

how many animal shelters and sanctuaries repost here?

sounds like a deeply anticompetitive, inefficient, and exploitable market.

just ship better products and services and incentivize users to be more constructive.

Unit bias is an issue with Bitcoin. Newcomers often buy Dogecoin or other altcoins simply because they can own "a lot" of them, while the idea of ever owning a whole Bitcoin feels impossible. One proposed solution by nostr:nprofile1qqsgeksa4tajm7x673gq2v7t56dkgkh6pjhhzdhrgxlpke4za8jmmkqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgjwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxqgkwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejqetk0p4 is to shift the language from 21 million bitcoins to 2.1 quadrillion bitcoins. Bitcoin is a great brand name and using satoshis or sats can be confusing. This would fix that too.

However, I feel this proposal would create confusion too, especially for those new to Bitcoin and for the media—because for 16 years, people have heard there are only 21 million bitcoins. Explaining that the total supply hasn’t changed, only the denomination, would be exhausting. Personally, I think calling them “sats” isn’t very intuitive, they should’ve been called “bits”, but at this point, I don’t really care.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

satoshis are cool

they just need a visual meme as good as Bitcoin's

and a seamless "everything app" experience

I love that 1 Bitcoin = 1 Bitcoin

meanwhile, on the corporate L2:

token launch going how most expected it to.

"swap API failed" and they're going through gymnastics of all the reasons why retail can't be completely informed about financials.

looks like the cabal is tripling down

"the victims deserve it" mentality

it really feels like Coinbase is trying to monopolize the crypto industry.

but instead of promoting small business, they're relentlessly promoting apps with gambling addiction.

guy extracting millions in orderflow from rampant speculation discovers name-calling, gaslighting, and victim-blaming.

isn't it weird that every techbro experiment in the real world is some sterile boutique experience?

how is this actual progress?
