There's opportunity to have meaningful dialogue all over. As much as this place can look like a circlejerk, I think there's still a lot of diversity of opinions. It's just that a lot of people don't want to step on anyone's toes and are content to sit around and sing kumbaya. We need fighters willing to challenge people, but also be challenged. There's a number of topics that I've done a 180 on since coming here and getting into discussions about. I don't really know where I'm going with this. Just don't be afraid to be opinionated and piss people off a bit.
Every rational person should own a gun. Problem is there's not that many rational people.
Cat is reason for existence and purpose.
I wish people would just screenshot the tweet they want to share.
I think I missed some step...
But why is nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 giving away sats? π
For shits and giggles I think.
I don't know enough about how all that works tbh. Honestly I'm not really qualified to be speculating on the doomsday scenario I described as it is. There's probably reasons why an attack like that wouldn't even work in the first place.
Thanks for the sats nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424. I have added them to the donation I was planning to make to the Roman Sterlingov Defense Fund. I was just listening to the WBD episode about it and I would just love to see the DoJ be made to look the fool in this case.

He's got too many sats! Help this poor man!

Capture of mining power by bad actors is my greatest fear for Bitcoin. If the cantillionaires plow enough of their wealth and influence into capturing mining power they could control a huge percentage and undermine the network in many ways. It could already be happening for all we know.
A vast majority of mining power is in the US and China, arguably the countries with the most to lose from a Bitcoinized world. The large mining companies are vulnerable to takeover, by violent or economic means, and in fact may already be "sleepers" waiting to act at a certain time when Bitcoin becomes the most threatening to them.
I can imagine a scenario where the fiat shit is hitting the fan and Bitcoin is poised for a leap forward in adoption. That is when they will spring the trap and undermine the network in some way, which could test confidence in the Bitcoin network. If they can suppress the price during this time it could drive legitimate miners out of business and allow them to consolidate control over mining power.
Idk, maybe I'm giving them too much credit.
looks like atomic wallet was compromised - used by millions of people around the world - not the first and will not be the last popular wallet to be compromised
if you are saving significant amounts of bitcoin consider upgrading your setup to coldcard + sparrow wallet - it is an accessible, powerful, and incredibly secure setup - in the future you can use the same setup to easily upgrade to multisig
my full guide is here: https://werunbtc.com/coldcard
I was going to do a Passport + Bluewallet 2 of 2. I feel like once you have a multisig between 2 different wallets you are pretty well protected if one of them turns out to be evil or incompetent.
No, I live in southern California π
The situation is tolerable currently, just inconvenient. If I had to deal with freezing weather I would be very unhappy.
Yeah having experienced it first hand I agree. The battery capacity and charging is a major pain point. I do not agree with the electrification mandate the US is pushing towards.
I have an electric car. I love the way it drives. It may not be "the solution", but it's a sweet fucking ride, so idgaf.
Looks pretty good when viewed from Amethyst.
That is a great logo for a hat. I'd buy one, but I don't really wear hats.
