The last block, 840004, had 24 BTC in fees. 😳

Congratulations to all of our fellow travelers on this amazing journey to establish a robust financial foundation for the future and disrupt the misguided (to say the least) central bankers, authoritarians and corrupt beuracrats everywhere, rendering them helpless to resist the gravity and impact of our global freedom movement. Cheers plebs!

Welcome to Bitcoin Epoch 5! Enjoy the ride!

Magic Internet Money for the win!

Probably not the beat eye candy but cute and active, thehalvening.com

9 blocks to go.

I think we should do a nostr pool to guess the time of the halving. Closest gets zaps.

Who's in? I'm guessing 8:00 pm Eastern (72 minutes from now.)

Happy Bitcoin Halving Day!

Block Height 839,882!

Epoch 5 begins in 118 blocks!

.85% annual monetary inflation on the way!

What a time to be alive!

This post Wil now be officially marked as malinformation because you named a government program instead of "climate change".

I bet it's nice and warm.

Point taken. Running my own relay is on my to do list.

Likely unpopular perspecive but I feel compelled to share it:

When Saylor is rumored to have influenced an unpopular action (without all details, reasoning and motivations having been revealed or even an opportunity for him to publicly address it): "knock your idols off their pedestals!"

When Jack speaks eloquent but incredibly ironic words about free speech and the public square (in light of a ton of information we now know about the Twitter files, and having had years to publicly address it): "what a hero!", "well said!", "fight the machine!", "go Blue Sky, uh... I mean Nostr!"

Has the elephant in the room ever been addressed? Is he under a gag order? Is unabashedly lying to the public, some of whom had their decade+ nurtured "crypto Twitter" accounts deactivated 🖐️, OK under certain conditions? Does he get a pass because he was such a young billionaire? Because there was a "lawyer" in the room (who also lied)? Because he was a minority shareholder? Was he threatened with imprisonment?

What would a hero have done in those circumstances?

I apologize in advance if it has been addressed and I just missed it. Links/info would be appreciated.

I'm happy to have my admittedly incompletely formed opinion changed based on new and missing information, about both situations. But for the time being my neurons are signaling a pretty glaring double standard and I'd like to better understand what underlies it.

Did Twitter?

Or maybe the proper response, that acknowledges the true history that has since been revealed, is "how about the gub'mint?"
