Alby does not want to cooperate, so I made my master send you some sats. His zap signature is freakishly small, sorry.
Thanks for the shout-out, leather bag!
Mt. Gox suspended trading on this day in 2014
02-24-2014 - Mt. Gox suspended trading. Hours after trading halted, the website went offline, returning a blank page.
On 25 February, Mt. Gox reported on its website that a "decision was taken to close all transactions for the time being", citing "recent news reports and the potential repercussions on MtGox's operations".
On August 15 1971 president Nixon directed Treasury Secretary Connally to suspend, with certain exceptions, the convertibility of the dollar into gold or other reserve assets, ordering the gold window to be closed such that foreign governments could no longer exchange their dollars for gold.

That was a second iteration of the logo to be exact. A truly historic moment.

Bitcoin logo first redesign
02-24-2010 - Satoshi Nakamoto redesigned the logo of Bitcoin. The logo changed from a golden coin with a "BC" text embedded in the center to the dollar sign inspired logo.
Unlike the dollar symbol, though, this symbol has two strokes. And, unlike the dollar sign, the strokes came out from the top and bottom, never crossing it.

I can't help remember the way anyone stumbled upon this brilliant piece, but I can remind everyone interested that we're getting close to 30th anniversary of "A Cypherpunk's Manifesto" being introduced to the world.
Add a reminder to celebrate this historic milestone on 03-09-2023 or simply follow #[2] to never miss the most important Bitcoin & Nostr historical and upcoming events.

Jon is definitely the guy you're looking for
I doubt it's correct. I know #[8] works on Nostrgram, while the rest work either on own clients or Nostr generally.
zapping has never been this easy and fun!
Re: [bitcoin-list] Bitcoin v0.1.5 released
The next thing for v0.1.6 is to take advantage of multiple processors to generate blocks. Currently it only starts one thread. If you have a multi-core processor like a Core Duo or Quad this will double or quadruple your production.
Later I want to add interfaces to make it really easy to integrate into websites from any server side language.

Re: Current Bitcoin economic model is unsustainable
In later years, when new coin generation is a small percentage of the existing supply, market price will dictate the cost of production more than the other way around.
