You're looking real Pale - get some SUN!!!
Bitcoin gave your more than knowledge... It gave you choice.
How did the early internet start? On notice boards and people just connecting. Not economic value.
IMO - Nostr will grow as the useful apps/tools on it grow.
What if your country's activitists are funded by foreign entities? Or foreign states. Does your country not have the right to protect itself? Looking only from a civil rights lens shows your statement needs a broader aperture.
Personally, I'd rather a the State use targeted spyware than the mass surveillance.
Fiat companies follow fiat dollars.
Where is that? Looks amazing!
Everyone is a risk taker - its in the very nature of subjective economic calculation. Its just that most don't understand or can't price risk. History is ones best teacher of risk....
Yep. Spot on.
Good news, QUIC is the way.
No time for contemplation in today's news cycle! News, Money, and Time moved slower back then...
If you don't have an opinion maybe you should. Fence sitting, being an outsider, is lazy.
Every node runner aught know what future direction they want...
Look for the difference between a National Bank and a Central bank.
The former is productivity loans, the later is asset loans. The former expands production the later expands asset prices.
Look at the presidents who started and who ended them all. It is worth your time to delve further.
Just because you can't hear the cyber hornet miner pitch doesn't mean your dog can't! This would be torture to a dog.
Home miners should be in submersion for everyone's sanity.
Let your dog sleep inside on their own cussion/bed. Dogs are your best friend, you should be theirs.
Nope. A fork and patch is fine. Knots can then cherry pick, and build funding and team going forward. Bitcoin will be better for it...
Still missing the point... Trust is broken with Core, its full of sell swords who ignore the node runners concerns on spam. They pushed rather than paused. An alternative will now be funded.
We are here, listening in the void. Keep up the great work.
If you want one platform then we all have a say (consensus is with the node runners); if core dev are autocrats the you have many forks.
There's no have your cake and eat it too on this.
If core think (like you) that they are the arbiters of code, and they don't need the community for direction, then core will splinter; if it hasn't already. Its basic game theory of protocols.
Adam Bach rejects the update. If it were a Meritocracy, you'd be deferring to him, right? Or has he got it wrong and isn't worthy or meritorious enough?
IMO the op_return change should be parked for 6 months to discuss/debate. Why are contentious changes being rushed in?
