Quantum resistant improvements wouldn't affect your private keys at all. It would only introduce new address formats. Same seed words, same key generation methods for new wallets, just new address formats.

That said, I do think there is a new standard way to create, backup and secure your private keys that may or may not come in the form of seed words and it will be the new recommended way to secure your bitcoin and be quite disruptive for those who want to stay current.

All upgrades in bitcoin are backwards compatible. No change will force users to change their backups or move their bitcoin to new addresses, but those who don't may find themselves in less secure or less easy to recover situations in the future.

No, just Bitcoin

And also cryptography.

Maybe I just don't get sports metaphors but it felt like it all just either made no sense or it boiled down to "don't bet against bitcoin, bet for it because bitcoin is winning". Nothing profound there at all. Could have said it in plain english too.

I made it up. Good point, if you find any reliable sources, I'd appreciate if you send them here.

He understood the inflationary damage of fiat currency and the scarcity of energy and how it could disempower the corrupt powers that were fueling wars for profit.

So Michael Saylor says "the innovation of Bitcoin is not that you can send someone something of value without an intermediary, it is that you can store something of value without an intermediary"...

Firstly the word value should not be in that sentence... Bitcoin's innovation is that you can send something without an intermediary and without a free agent issuer so _that_ you can store it.

To say "something of value" prompts the next question.. what gives it value? This _is_ what gives it value.

And over time you will get engagement, but similarly if you take that and turn into a shilling machine, we all get to turn you off without an algorithm pushing you in our faces.

Hopefully a non-intervened system where all the signal is direct people and not algorithmic derivatives will lead to a more healthy social network.

Upload to a file hosting service and type its url. Not ideal, but possible if you really need it.

I'm using android. Primal on android doesn't even let me pick a gif to upload. 🤷‍♂️

I used #Amethyst. I assumed you were asking if gifs were loading and animating, not whether gif uploads were working.
