i don’t trust in words, show me the software
drivechains are the only bitcoin “banks” i can accept
fuck federations that cosplay as sidechains, fuck custodians, fuck layer 2 solutions with no unilateral exit
the miners have most skin in the game, they invest most money in this network
i’d rather trust them than coinbase
did an interview with a romanian documentary maker and in it i was super bullish about bitcoin
i even bought $20 worth from an atm (on camera) and encouraged everyone to do the same and wait for a few years to see what happens
in my mother tongue, i’m almost always optimistic – 2013 roger ver levels of shilling, alex gladstein levels of virtue signaling
it’s only when i interact with you guys on the purple ostrich app that i get depressed
such stupid takes, so much hopium, so little consideration for onboarding the next hundred million people in a non-custodial way and giving them the privacy to escape authoritarianism
but i might have different personalities in different languages too, i’m far more polite in romanian
today is a good day to read the bitcoin whitepaper and reflect
