Pseudonymity/Anonymity so important when all the other “town squares” are looking for stricter KYC for their thoughtcrime departments. And I’m just a normie with perfectly conventional opinions people used to be happy to express in public.

I think so too! Slightly older than the dead bird app.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean I have to listen to you. Provide value or bye bye.

a pure, true free market is a thing of beauty

It’s an organism

Buyers and sellers converge around a product or service

and they trade

keep third-party rent-seekers the fuck away, you have a thing of beauty

Unreal…

A friend mentioned to me today that the free market is complicated. I was quick to point out…the free market is NOT complicated.

You take risk and provide value, you receive your rewards. If you miss, you lose. Fairly simple.

What we have created is what is complicated, and it is NOT a free market.

Crazy that people still think that’s what our system is, and that it’s the free market that’s to blame.

🤦🏻‍♂️

Bit of a lack of knowledge, the first response was; are we sure we want to do that with the whole Sam Backman thing? So then I had to explain how Sam's exchange has nothing to do with the network. Then she told me she would bring it up to her superiors.

I try and orange pill everyone at work, even mentioned it to the director for the company to add it to there balance sheet.

They should've kept their funds in the bank?

Mario is such a 🤡.

Psssst… Bitcoin has no credit risk. So few understand this implication still. Ignore at your own peril.

I get that there is a human side to bank runs and no one wants individuals to get hurt financially, but how can anyone be for a bailout? Have we not learned anything from 2008? If one bank gets bailed out, why not the next? Why stop at banks, why not all industries? If the government comes in to socialize all losses, what's the difference from nationalizing that business to begin with?

These actions aren't free and aren't without consequence. For a lot of us, the bailouts and TARP were the very reason that we're here right now and to push all that aside and to advocate for those same actions again just doesn't make any sense to me.

Alright, added the ability to ⚡ anyone whose reply contains a specific text (case insensitive). I'll use this feature to zap 1,000 sats to everyone who replies to this note in the next 5 minutes with the name of the man that was the lead guitarist for Metallica from 1981 to 1983 before being ejected and starting his own (kick-ass) metal band.
