Who told you they were a problem now? You know the Genesis block has an inscription, right?

How the hell can you call out a pandemic, that no one knows where it originated and they couldn't even decide on a name for it, and then a year later release 'the cure'? We aren't that smart or lucky.

Never in the history of mankind has a vaccine worked on the first try and it takes years to actually discover a working one.

People tried using polio as an example but polio existed for decades and took decades to vaccinate against.

Sorry, correction, a non yellow icon.

Zapxiety, (adj.), English,. The fear of a yellow icon during a zap.

Thomas experienced zapxiety when his zap icon turned yellow.

If you think this affects bitcoin then it affects a majority of websites and platforms using ECDSA certs and encryption methods for anything from social media to banks.

If it is true then software will be updated. This is not an issue.

I think it's just people who don't realize that are in "hell", but I just block people that complain about it. No one knows what it is.

If you treat bitcoin like a stock, your gonna have a bad time.

I predict that in a few months the price recovery will look just like it did after the FTX failure. VC's still think bitcoin needs fiat services to survive not realizing bitcoin is actively fighting fiat.

7 ways to short btc but no way to kill it.

It reminds me of the Ritalin and Adderall craze with programmers in college. They thought it enhanced their coding skills.

AI won't help anyone write well, it'll help them write a lot with ease.

We've got some butt hurt senators doing dumb and smart things too. Golddoor's collapse, mt gox reimbursement fud (I think for a 3rd time). Illinois wants miners exposed and another State wants to protect mining rights. Ripple and Grayscale lawsuits with SEC are in trial now.

Truly amazing what lines of code can do. Bits are the new bullets.

Nah, just a lot of transactions. It happens when fud reaches all time highs.

Electrum allows you to open lightning channels with sats. I think it requires a minimum of 200000 sats for the send channel and I'm not sure what the minimum is for the receive channel. You can use trampoline or gossip routing. I believe the idea is you take the tx fee when your channel(s) are used.

Do BSD, or Sand Dollar. It is a digital currency which will act just like CBDC's and Fedcoin.

Not really, if you read up on something before using it you get to learn what it is and how it works. Hard to learn something new if you expect yourself to just 'know' the answer.

Is this your first time?

I watched bitcoin go from ~$10 to ~50cents once because people said the CIA controlled it. Then there was another time an exchange/bank blew up and it went from ~$200 to ~$80. Then there was another time ... I think you get the picture.

People who think bitcoin is a stock cause the volatility and bitcoiners just hold through it. And so it has been for over a decade.

This won't decide anything's fate. It is the lawsuits with Ripple and Grayscale that will decide the fate of anything using PoS and US treasury leveraged stable coins. CFTC's head is calling eth and stable coins commodities but it will be up to the SEC to decide. If your token/coin has a CEO or runs a for-profit business, chances are you have a tokenized digital security.

Except there are, 40k + unconfirmed transactions. Adding useless data to the witness segment has been a thing for years now. Nothing new.

I blame it on my addiction to swipe type.

If you see a news article with a question for a title, the answer is always no. Thank me later.
