Love the fighting spirit.
If the domain name doesn't have "Bitcoin" in it you can still pivot to fiat later when Bitcoin doesn't work out.
Putin has practically won now.
Added something fun: for a given USD and BTC net worth and a potential purchase of X amount, how many times you could make this purchase before going to zero USD or BTC.
When you time-adjust (inflation for USD, appreciation for BTC), you get **half** the number of purchases in USD and **double** the number of purchases in BTC.

You can't buy anything in BTC. It's fiction.
Did you very elastically pivot to sheep farming then.
well that was a lovely shaving experience.

Maybe there's a nostr potter out there who can team up with SoapMiner for a shaving cup combo 🤔
Was it worth spending a long-term Bitcoin investment on a short-lived consumable.
We'll you'd have to trust the escrow service.
You can't pay for homes in BTC. It's fiction.

That sounds like it would quickly sarurate the network.

How big must your ego be so that each time you do your little stupid trolling she replies nicely and intelligently without even getting annoyed and showing you humbly why your perspective is limited / comes from a position of not having thought carefully and deeply about it??
How is that possible?? You are so lucky to have her, and you don’t even take advantage of it you idiots…
Gotta hand it to Jehova's Witnesses though, when they come to my door they're not convincing either but at least they're polite.
Would love to see any place anywhere -- real or virtual -- where Bitcoin has the tiniest local monopoly. It would at least be a very interesting scientific curiosity to study.
The only place I can see is zaps on nostr. Spend says earn sats. What's the transaction volume on that.
Our little currency is globally traded just fine.

How are you paying the distributor.
In my little country we have our little economy and price things in our little money. Pricing in USD only when we do business with abroad.
Oh noes why did you spend Bitcoin knowing it was going to go up.
This 1 sq.in. piece of paper went all the way to ~$10m. Way to go.

Two years only that's not looking good.
Really do you have sources on that.

Ditcha have to kill trees. Ditcha.
"Royalties" is this idea that musicians can collect payments forever for music that was performed only once. This idea can't die soon enough.
I'm asking the questions here.
You know, if you have nothing to hide you've got nothing to fear.
Awesome. What did you have for breakfast?
"Whatever" is a brilliant essay on "AI" by nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqwlqdes0apvwprz6srs4j6nl0fhemfng8ece6ya6cpjunucwutrgqzxt7qq:
"But I think the core of what pisses me off is that selling this magic machine requires selling the idea that doing things is worthless. Because if doing something has some value, then it must be somehow better than pushing a button and receiving Whatever for essentially no cost."
Sorry for extensive quote but this is fricken awesome.
"Bitcoin failed as a currency because the people who got most invested in it do not care about currency — it could be bottled dragon farts for all they care, except that putting it on the computer means there’s no need to actually worry about a product. It’s just something to pump the value of; the underlying asset could be, well, Whatever. And Bitcoin itself is open source, so you can copy it and make your very own coin, your very own Whatever. With NFTs, you can make an entire family of “collectible” Whatevers — a strange descriptor given that you can’t actually collect one of each of them, but who really cares if the description makes sense? It doesn’t matter what the art is, or how the technology works, or what the tokens are attached to. It just has to be something you can convince other people to buy. The actual thing can be Whatever.
I think this adequately explains why the proliferation of these guys helped suck all the air out of Twitter. Tens of thousands of grifters lining every sidewalk, each one passionately hawking an indistinguishable Whatever that they don’t actually care about. Endless, endless fake enthusiasm from people all trying to convince each other to buy into their boilerplate box of nothing. Buy my thing! Haha no don’t worry about how much of it I own — let’s talk about how much of it you should own! Hint: it’s a lot!
Kind of a bummer."
Simplex Chat had a similar attack where Wired Magazine claimed Simplex was full of Nazis
You don't.
Yeah nah I don't buy the scam/drug/energy aspects. It's just not widely accepted and never will be, lacking a mechanism for stable prices.
> staff paid with btc
Very interesting. Their work contracts are in BTC?
> Bitcoin and network effect? - Check
A network for a currency would be a circular economy of buyers and sellers. There's no such thing.
> Controlling Money Supply in Bitcoin? - Check
Controlling doesn't mean limiting. It means the supply can be increased or decreased to match the goods and services on offer.
The supply of Bitcoin can not be decreased and not be increased above 21m.
> Control of supply in goods and Services in circulation and offer is NOT needed (wtf?!?!). —
Nowhere did I say "control of supply in goods and services". We live in a free world and can offer as much or as little as we like.
However the supply of money has to roughly match the supply of goods and services for prices to be stable.
> Otherwise gold would not function at all.
It doesn't. There are as many shops doing business in gold as there are in Bitcoin. None.
> So honest question: What is the Problem again?
The above.
Afaik capital gains taxes only apply when you sell an asset where which in government terms means selling Bitcoin for fiat. But that's not what you want you want to pay for things.
No, you need to have network effects and a mechanism to control supply so that the amount in circulation roughly matches the goods and services on offer.
This is really hard so only governments currently can do it.
Yes it's their fault because they don't offer a currency that allows for stable prices.
The shops price in fiat because prices are relatively stable. Not perfectly stable of course, could be bette, but much more stable than Bitcoin.
No magic crypto schnitzels though only money you actually have to work for. This is not for you.
