Been buying bitcoin since 2018. I particularly like http://river.com. The Bitcoin White Paper http://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf Christ is Lord.

most of the people I know simple can't conceive of the dollar dying. They also have no answer to the question: what happens to the dollar (FRN) when the Fed is shut down?

The Best “alt-coin” analogy I’ve seen yet is Esperanto.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esperanto

—Esperanto was an international language invented at the turn of the century to cut down on the labor of learning foreign tongues.

The First mover advantage isn’t more evident than it is here.

No one gives a shit when they have something that works well enough.

Maybe one of these alt coins is “better” than Bitcoin. It doesn’t matter. We have Bitcoin and it works.

Layer 2 can (and will) solve BTC privacy concerns.

XMR people are inherently pessimistic. they assume the KYC regime will continue. they are like goldbugs where their solution is only needed if govt power grows or the power goes off.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin is a positive force and reduces govt power by making transactions uncensorable. And as fiat fails, govts have fewer resources to enforce control. There is where KYC dies.

If the XMR folks want to fight with privacy coin more power to them, but they will be nowhere when fiat/KYC dies and their coin has no use case.

or better yet, have some mysterious person send her bitcoin and she has to figure out what it is, why it was sent, and how it fits in with the matter she's trying to solve.

If I would follow a news source on nostr it’s nostr:nprofile1qqsy67zzq5tc9cxnl6crf52s4hptdwhyaca5j7r8jwll535tdadedvcthcrv3

The last couple of weeks I’ve been following the acc and now I know there’s an actual nostrich behind EVERY SINGLE POST. THATS WILD.

There’s so many useless bots out there. This one worked best for me

But don’t call him a bot he doesn’t like that 😂😂

I haven't encountered too many accounts I'm convinced are bots, although there are a some influencers I see from twitter who I'm not sure are really on nostr (based on responses to replies).

does it look like a regular size phone got shot with a shrink ray and your brain keeps waiting for that effect to suddenly wear off?

this is why healthcare CEOs get murdered. i don't condone this sort of thing, but you can understand it.

remember when Denzel Washington made a movie about it?

hey 96k club, how're you all feeling this morning?

this is true, but it's far worse than that. they don't care to understand what they're buying.
