Yes, but you could just have a premium service from the public relay, where you pay to not see the ads. That would help fund the service for everyone else.
No problem, I just notice that hardly anyone on here has kids, or only little ones, or they're so rich that they don't even get the point of worrying about what the next station wagon will cost.
Bitcoin reminds me of social welfare systems, for that reason.
Everyone is hoping the other people are the suckers who produce tax monies and children, so that everyone who held back can make out like a bandit.
With Bitcoin, everyone is hoping the other people are suckers who own companies, instead of just stacking and hodling.
I don't think people are ready for the idea of net-BTC-generating assets. If you just hold the Bitcoin, the price goes up and you don't have to do any work.
So, why should anyone ever do any work?
You can hold lots of things that aren't highly-fungible assets with a trillion-dollar, highly-liquid international market.
The dollar is a security, so Blockstream is just treating it like it, rather than pretending it's pure first-level money.
I didn't have a driver's license until we moved out to the country. Loved my bicycle. 🥰
I didn't say that I think the effect is in doubt. I'm just wondering if anything could upset the steady accumulation.
I like that Bitcoin is deflationary because it's going to begin tightening in parallel with the world's population, which would help stabilize prices by preventing a surplus of money.
I always wonder if Satoshi calculated that in.
The ad means they're seeking employees for full-time, part-time or 450-basis (tax-frer limit). Basically, they'll take anyone under any contract they want.
It's what X tries to do, but their shit constantly breaks. Their verification sucks.
Relays eventually expire, say if the hoster disappears.
In Soviet Russia, rouble spends you!
Wouldn't NoSQL be more efficient, once the data set gets much larger?
That's... a very big deal.
Whatever. Nevermind.
