Think about how artificial a 50-year mortgage is.

It's 5-7% for some amount that's at least 6-figures where the term is unknown due to possible repayment at any time.

Would you take the other side of the trade? Would anyone? The term is too unpredictable, the amount too much and the interest rate not nearly enough for all the risk.

Yet these happen all day long because they're not loans created from savings, but loans created from nothing.

50-year mortgages are an abomination. But so are all other mortgages that come from nothing.

this is absolutely correct, and yet these will get soaked up by the 'market' because they will be subsidized - directly through deficit spend and indirectly through regulatory incentive. such is the fiat ponzi

any idea why someone may want to destroy the west

to achieve what in the end

the west is destroyed, what next ?

satskew 2mo ago

whats next would be an absolute dystopia of digital control. if i had totalitarian aims i would want to destroy any remaining vestiges of freedom, democracy and Christianity. it seems like an all out spiritual war with evil intent. how else do you explain what we are seeing in Europe? digital ids, cbdcs, net zero, replacement migration, arresting people for social posts, war with Russua. does it seem like a pro human agenda ? are they telling you to be fruitful and multiply or the opposite ?

A Bitcoiner Can Survive

Hank Nakamoto

The Fourth turning says it's a crisis time

And the block subsidy she's a-goin' dry

The interest is up and the Stock Market's down

And you get wrench attacked if you have no OpSec

I live in a citadel, you see

My woman and the kids, and the dogs, and me

I got a shotgun, a Cold Card, and a 4-wheel drive

And a Bitcoiner can survive

Bitcoiners can survive

I can stay humble all day long

I can stack sats from dusk 'til dawn

We make our own whiskey and our own Great Ghee, too

Ain't too many things these bitcoiners can't do

We make Hodl Butter and Peony Lane wine

And a Bitcoiner can survive

Bitcoiners can survive

Because you can't starve us out

And you can't make us run

'Cause we're them Bitcoiners raised on cypherpunks

And we say "grace" and we say "Ma'am"

And if you ain't into that we don't give a damn

We came from the West Virginia coal mines

And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies

And we can run a node; we can mine a block

And a Bitcoiner can survive

Bitcoiners can survive

I had a good friend in New York City

He never called me by my name, just fuckin maxi

My grandpa taught me about sound money

And his taught him to play fiat games

He used to send me pictures of NFTs

And I'd send him some Peony Lane wine

But he was killed by a man with a $5 wrench

For 43 fiat units my friend lost his life

I'd love to spit some beech nut in that dude's eyes

And shoot him with my old .45

'Cause a Bitcoiner can survive

Bitcoiners can survive

'Cause you can't starve us out and you can't make us run

'Cause we're them Bitcoiners raised on cypherpunks

And we say "grace" and we say "Ma'am"

And if you ain't into that we don't give a damn

We're from North California and South Alabama

And little towns all around this land

And we can run a node; we can mine a block

And a Bitcoiner can survive

Bitcoiners can survive

A Bitcoiner can survive

Bitcoiners can survive

fantastic remake frend

opensource, FOSS and encryption has never been more important for the individual than now. Without opensource developers our speech and freedom would be globally deleted before 2030 and 1984 would be somewhat of a comedy compared to what's to come. Hence opensource developers need your support more than they ever did before and you need them more than you know.

satskew 2mo ago

totally agree. much gratitude for FOSS devs and the sacrifices many of them have to make

Gm dear friends, i started building. It's incredibly fun to do so. I highly recommend it.

Can someone explain why for someone not from US

satskew 2mo ago

possible scenario with increased probability now. NYC becomes a haven for illegals, esp muslim, and criminals flocking to feast on the buffet of benefits and crime. more lawlessness, open air drug markets, defecating on the streets, repeat offenders released with no consequence. watch some videos online of San Fran homeless for a preview. clear to me that Soros and the globalists want to destroy the west and arent shy about it...

I've met people over the years who are constantly upset about one thing or another.

If I ask them what it would take for them to feel at peace they would rattle off a long list of external conditions which need to be met first.

This process never leads to a resolution. Mental clarity and inner peace begin within ourselves and resonate outwards.

Personal development is an inside job. Just like 911.

difficult to achieve but worth pursuing

An SBR will do nothing for the US’ debt situation as long as the money printer still exists. That’s like saying having a gold stockpile will make gvt more fiscally responsible. History has proven otherwise.

if the system is debt based and money is created from nothing via double-entry accounting, it doesnt seem like they can do anything without a recession. its like mathematically guaranteed to fall vs bitcoin

story time. the recently disclosed nutshell cashu mint vulnerability is as ironic as it gets. it’s very similar to an inscription which is hilarious. as per the cashu spec, a HTLC must have a preimage witness size of 32 bytes.

unfortunately, the mint never checked the size before validating and storing it in its db. we simply overlooked it. since users never paid a fee that depends on the witness size (because we assumed it would be constant), this allowed the attacker to store jpgs of dickbutts in a mints database. for free!

fortunately there’s no messy consensus in cashu. every mint operator dictates their own rules. the fix is simple: now we reject all tokens with a witness that’s too large. those maliciously crafted tokens (of which we haven’t seen any in the wild) can’t be spent anymore.

i must admit, given my recent active engagement in the filter debate, this is probably the funniest exploit possible. i own this one and i’m giggling as i type this. it’s pure comedy.

however, this doesn’t mean the disclosure has gone well. the attacker has proven to be malicious and refused to coordinate with us. instead, he’s putting active mints at risk. this is not how responsible disclosure works. very unprofessional. if you run a mint or know someone who does, update to the latest version (0.18.1) where this issue is fixed. funds were never in danger.

it’s certainly worth a laugh. grill me. this one is simply too good. 😊

thanks to the entire cashu team for their amazing work and their swift reaction. you’ve handled it like pros.
