And what happened to Happy Easter? Is it too early? I been saying but haven't heard anyone else say it. It's Easter weekend.

If you’re into bitcoin and want to know how early we are, post stuff on Reddit.

Is there a more useless group of people than economists?

Where are you at in your Bitcoin journey?

We built lightning to make bitcoin transactions faster and cheaper. but once congestion on layer 1 eased, we started complaining about empty blocks. Eventually, layer 1 will become significantly more expensive and will primarily be used by central banks and large institutions.

Good morning nostr 👑

Don't underestimate how important you are in this revolution

Why is it that the entire fork wars was framed around big vs small blocks? When it clearly wasn't that at all. It was a clear cut differing of are we going to change the Shelling point of consensus altogether and fork individuals whom otherwise wouldn't know a damn thing about what was going on.. or are we going to maintain the system as it is so that nobody thats already a user gets kicked out of consensus?

Finally starting to really grasp the nuances of the debacle albeit not having it been a lived experience myself.

The entire NY agreement collusion, every exchange and miner, and companies that accepted it at the time wanted an increase of blocksize and it was given that with the new weighted data size limit of segwit but it was clear that wasn't the issue as they still tried to purpose segwit2X (that was dead on the vine with its off by one bug) that you'll need to run OUR version of segwit.

🏆The Guinness World Record for the deepest rabbit hole the world has EVER known goes to: Bitcoin

you still haven't figured out what liquid is about?

adam back, and all of his friends together, running a custodial sidechain, with a permissioned and trusted bridge and permissioned block production, passing off L-BTC as if it were as good as the real thing. running lightning infrastructure as a service too. he is a rent-seeking parasite middleman who blocks the stream to sell liquid.

if trustless UTXO sharing gets enabled and people start admitting that lightning actually sucks for sovereign individuals, all of his stuff goes poof. his investment in blockstream and adjacent companies goes to waste. no more playing pretend banker. this is why he flails his arms around and starts saying nasty things to people when they are working on covenants or UTXO sharing. he doesn't want the problem to go away. he is the problem.
