I don't normally like to link to twitter but it offers a lot more information than I'm willing to type πŸ™‚

NFTs are centralized and have no reason to be on a blockchain. They are just trying to get your Bitcoin.

If you want to be paid in #Bitcoin you need to provide value to a Bitcoiner. Find out what you can do for bitcoiners and they will send you sats. 🧑

People can also steal Bitcoin by hacking, physically attacking or scamming bitcoiners. Hacking and attacking are hard though, so mostly just don't buy jpegs 🫑

Yea I'm just pointing out what is literally happening, not what impact it has on human psychology. It absolutely will completely go away in 2140, and will be irrelevant in the next 5-10 years.

But yea today miners are still primarily getting paid via subsidy not by tx fees. So yes they are doing work and we all agree it's fair and we all agree they they should be subsidized, but we are printing money to pay them.

The fact remains that miners are literally being subsidized... It's even called a block subsidy. And this subsidy does put downward pressure on the price meaning that the supply inflation is literally devaluing all holders Bitcoin.

Thanks! Ironically, it was mostly supplied by US tax dollars πŸ˜‚

I just added the #bitcoin symbol

I like to point out that even Bitcoin has inflation... Is the block reward theft?

No. Why? Because everyone agrees on what the printed money is being used for and agrees that it is being distributed fairly.

If I agreed with what my taxes were being used for and that they were being distributed fairly they would also not be theft.

I believe governments on a Bitcoin standard will be much more responsible with tax money πŸ‘
