In the near future, numerous penny stocks will likely purchase Bitcoin as a strategy to pump and dump their shares. This practice could inevitably harm retail investors, who might end up blaming Bitcoin itself. Acquiring the first 100 Bitcoins with $10 million doesn’t equate to building a legitimate Bitcoin treasury, instead it may be an attempt to exploit Bitcoin’s reputation for personal gain. I’m unsure what actions Bitcoiners should take or how much Bitcoin would prove their sincerity, but we’re facing the potential for serious damage here.

I still don’t understand ecash and what advantage it has over LN

But still as a Bitcoiner you should try to get everyone on board. Even if you're one fucked up weirdo who hates everyone, everyone else believing in this will pump your bags. Isn't it ironic 😄

Bitcoin is money for enemies and as such, weirdly unites all sorts of people. This I praise

Next human/fellow/being

It's just a simulation.

It's just a simulation.

It's just a simulation.

If #bitcoin is for everyone, why do you still belittle your next?

i just find it irritating and pointless to credit evil with enduring power

they are already trying these things, there is a lot of reasons why you would not want to KYC yourself, personally, i refuse to do it and all of my wealth is being spent on businesses that operate in unregulated jurisdictions or with weak enforcement

there's just no rational basis for dooming about this shit, cypherpunks are slippery fish, who have already scattered across the globe and are working to bring about little enclaves everywhere

Depends what you define as food? Cause hmm 🧐 whew 😅 ima just be

that's regulation

I mean FAIR IS FAIR

72 hour rule

Ima only human

- know my limitations

#haiku #Fax #📠 otherwise I get real crazy and nobody needs that

For the record I’ve interacted with villains and artichoke brains and fools and politicians and heathens and charlatans and enjoyed it.

it doesn't fundamentally matter, the table is tilted in our favour against them... banned, taxed, regulated, all three are being tried but banned is a total failure already, taxed is basically not enforcable, and regulated isn't gonna make a stick of difference without a one world government, which is also impossible because if it could be done, it would already have been done and bitcoin would not be part of the story

you are just reiterating long debunked concerns that are listed on this little chart from 10 years ago

The right, blue section, on the right side under the "Government" category are the ways that they will respond

Banned is already over and done with, the chinese, russians, and USA all have given up trying to do that

they have started trying taxed and regulated but that's not going to work either, because there is so many countermeasures you can use to avoid them, and some are also just the sane thing to do because of the adversarial situation with shitcoin casinos trying to accumulate sats running as the House on people who are trying to catch the Next Big Thing ™️

it's not exceedingly easy to avoid getting logged as having sats but the more you have, the easier it is to access ways that you can avoid leaving records in accounts of honeypots, i mean shitcoin casinos and neobanks and whatnot, so that's Taxed

and Regulated, that's this OFAC, miner blacklisting of UTXOs

if you understand the full game theory of why Bitcoin has UTXOs you will understand that they can't hold a net around UTXOs without control of ALL jurisdictions, just one miner puts your UTXO spend and oh, now they have 2+ to chase after, or better still you coinjoined it with 10 other people and now there's 30 UTXOs they can't control, it's a hydra

the direction bitcoin goes is towards self sovereign holding of cryptographic keys

biometrics identities are accounts, who holds the account, is the owner

when you simply hold a key, you are the owner because only you have the power to generate a signature valid for that account

nostr is based on the same principle and the simple fact is that KYC and account based, cloud provider systems are a road to hell

bitcoin and nostr are ways to use computer technology without ceding your estate title over to people with no functional limit on what they can do to you, fueled by the intelligence gathered from their account logging system

don't confuse a username with a key, they are very different things, one is theirs, the other is yours

yes they want us to use theirs

that's why we don't
