The current largest systemic problem in Bitcoin is mining centralization. It’s the fact that we have millions of *hashers* and barely a handful of *miners* on the network.

There has been endless claims about solutions, but no project has done more, practically and explicitly, than nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze to start to turn this problem around.

If an opinion on op_return, or an abrasive remark, or some viewpoint difference has you dismissing or denying the fact that they are doing more than anyone else to solve this problem, then I’d argue you aren’t serious about Bitcoin.

I respect lots of people that I don’t agree with, and even many that I don’t even like, or whose personalities just rub me the wrong way. But I respect and recognize what they do for bitcoin, and realize that weird, angry, or antisocial contrarians are often those who do the most to balance groupthink. That’s often a big part of why I value them.

If you think there is another project doing more to solve this problem, I’m all ears. But right now I don’t see evidence of it. And I couldn’t care less what silly statements are made by anyone involved (and can point to an endless supply by anyone, including myself, if that’s what I wanted to focus on) as long as they continue moving the needle to solving Bitcoin’s greatest risk.

Is the centralisation a double edged sword? If they hash they keep earning, rock the boat, the could lose it all.

If the chain splits though, will it be chosen by hash or users buying or selling the original/new token?

Why isn't he with ETH?

Hard to believe that was before they outsourced all tech support to India. Playing online pool and telling people to restart their computers was cool.

I don't remember WorldsAway. What's that?

We viewed our local one and it was good compared to a state school. But there are other considerations and better options imo. Home school is the best option if you can (or legally allowed) and a local school without travel is also a consideration.

I think although they spend more time outside in Waldorf schools, they still are taught like state schools, to obey authority, their place in society etc. regardless if they learn a skill like iron mongering that may be just as useless as sitting in a classroom.

I think there is also the Montessori school system as a midway option.

It wasn't a pleasant drive at all. Not compared to a Ford Escort MkII.

Much longer Mike. They paid £2,75 an hour back then! 😆

I did work at Asda for a week. It gets boring fast.

No joke, someone asked me if I work at Aldi this week. Not sure if my blue jacket.

It was great man. You went off into the sunset with your dildo.
