Google has changed its sign up process (maybe not news, I haven't tried for a while). No more receiving to one time numbers, now you have to send a text message to them from your phone.

Everything step we take is kyc-ed.

Preserving one's privacy is getting harder and actually impossible as most countries do not allow burner numbers.

A Monero fanboy is going to tell me the truth about Bitcoin? : ))) mmmmkay

#BitcoinCash sits in that odd-but-useful spot: it reminds you that not all sovereignty comes from perfect #privacy.

#Monero covers you when you need true opacity and full fungibility.

Bitcoin Cash covers you when you need fast, cheap, widely accepted payments, even if you leave a trace.

That’s the tension:

– Monero: shield.

– BCH: low friction and merchant adoption.

It depends on the moment, not on dogma.

I support and run #bitcoinknots, because I want node-software democracy. I am against how #bitcoincore devs merged a thing that was highly controversial, just like that. HOWEVER, I will go back to #bitcoincore as soon as #bitcoinknots does a #softfork. Seriously, keep #bitcoinknots aligned with the common network and do not become another #bitcoincash, that to this day has supporters on their subreddit believing that at some point someone will be holding their useless bags. If the #softfork happens, node democracy will be gone once again. I would appreciate more options!

Help me suppress the #Monero price, guys. It's 23% overvalued.

Dollars used to be made of gold

Quarters nickles and dimes all silver

Penny was copper

Now its all lies

I don't know how you come to this conclusion.

Ok, but I usually don’t need to explain who Hannah Arendt is.

Hannah Arendt (1906–1975) was a German-Jewish philosopher and political theorist. She explored how power, freedom, and responsibility shape human life together. One of her most important books is The Origins of Totalitarianism, where she analyzes how systems like Nazism and Stalinism arise and destroy individual freedom.

We are all Satoshi.

It’s more than a meme. It’s a philosophical stance, a social contract, and a technological fact wrapped into one.

No one owns Bitcoin.

No one controls it.

No one is Satoshi…

Because everyone can be.

When Satoshi disappeared, they handed us the keys — not just to the software, but to a new form of responsibility.

It’s not about mystery, it’s about distributed integrity.

“The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work.”

— Satoshi Nakamoto

Bitcoin removes the need for trust in people — and replaces it with trust in code, consensus, and math.

That trustless system is kept alive by those who run nodes, mine blocks, educate others, contribute code, build tools, hold keys, and live by principle.

In that sense:

• The developer who submits a PR to Bitcoin Core: is Satoshi

• The parent teaching their kids about sound money: is Satoshi

• The freedom fighter using Bitcoin under authoritarian regimes: is Satoshi

• The pleb stacking sats in silence: is Satoshi

There is no Satoshi in the sky to save us.

There is only us — and the truth we choose to live by.

Sovereignty is not inherited. It is claimed.

Satoshi is not a person. It is a role we step into.

We are all Satoshi.

And that means no one can stop what’s coming.

The free market can do things so much efficiently, and I think this applies to chomos as well.

Look at the number of chomo-hunting influencers that have grown recently and compare that to videos of cops arresting pedos on cop channels like Code Blue Cam. It's like a 10:1 ratio. And when we see police not doing their jobs of protecting of serving (even though they have no duty do so), like in Uvalde, what's the solution we're told to? Vote vote vote vote vote. And then nothing changes. If netizens can expose pedophiles so well, why on earth could they not be trusted in solving and stopping these dirtbags?

And you think democracy isn't?
