So Trump slags off Fed renovation cost then wants a $200 million ballroom at White House. 🤡🌎

This dumb fuck has inspired new monikers:

Or

History is repeating. Bitcoin is in the middle of its form of the PGP wars. The arguments against it and the untenable “solutions” put forth by the government are the exact same.

They wanted people to hold their PGP private keys with custodians. PGP won. Bitcoin can too.

Just listened to Jeff Booth with Stephan. He’s such a good vibe. He’s the kind of bitcoiner i want to grow up to be like 😂

Opt out.

"Under the new measure, people realising capital tax gains of more than C$250,000 ($180,804) will pay tax on the excess at a rate of 66.7%, up from 50% at present. Similarly, all capital gains realised by companies and trusts will be taxed at 66.7%."

The design and mentality about relays needs to change.

In the end, admins and users will want something like mastodon

Nostr is literally being ddos'd with spammers and there is nothing that the relays can do

It is possible for nostr to be DDoS-ed or abused via overuse, illegal content, whatever. If and when that happens, nostr will be crushed. Most people will leave. Many of us devs will know that nostr is fine, and nostr survives, but the public perception will be that nostr failed. Growing nostr after that point will be nearly impossible.

I just want to avoid that outcome. I want that outcome to be impossible.

My support of the outbox model, my support for relays to be selective in what they allow, is all in persuit of making that outcome impossible. Maybe I'm wrong, or misguided, or not doing enough... I don't know. But my intent has only been to save nostr.

This is the part that concerns me. Look at what happened in LaHaina, for example. What really happened? How do we know? How much was real, how much was fake clickbait, how much was disinfo to discredit the real reporting, etc.

Approaching another election cycle here in the U.S. ...yeah, it's not looking good.

People underestimate how important public/private key signatures are going to be. Reputation will be absolutely everything.

I see hundreds of eye witnesses for events that never happened, filling up social media,

activating people to go out and DO. This is a secret agencies wet dream, mockingbird on amphetamine.

The European Central bank is working on an Ecash system for a CBDC that can only be run by banks. We're working on an Ecash system for Bitcoin that can be run by anyone.

We must code faster.

The fact Coinbase has been allowed to custody so many Bitcoin for the ETFs is a feature for a corrupt system and very much a major flaw for us. Future attack vector incoming
