Use ecash for my lil game and submit it to win some sats?

Honestly, after getting the basics and layout with Claude, deepSeek has won today oddly....as long as your not asking it to do anything with LN. 🤣

But, It's been pumping out 1800+ lines of code in each response after I ask it to make a few changes at once since like 10am today.

No stupid fucking session limits or "error, this page is not responding" bullshit.

Simple copy paste and things are just working.

We need an Ai assistant to do testing, debugging, and security checks for all these vibe coded apps.

🤣

Think it's possible for you to animate my zombies so they look like they are walking and moving their arms if you had the pngs?

🤔

Why don't we GameSpot Congress?

Wild. The zaps are flooding in.

It seems I've accidentally started a public service. 🤔

Many of you are discovering your zaps do work... and a few of you just found a silent bug you need to fix. (You're welcome).

But this proves a point: The Lightning Network is a muscle. If you don't flex it, it atrophies.

Do your zaps still work or nah? When's the last time you checked?

Few small things to add still! 💜🫂

1800 lines of code. 1 html file.

Essentially it's the same thing as the mute/block button.

Cancel culture, is just a group of people, that usually targets dumb shit instead of things that matter.

Fixing small things always takes the longest. I think we're ready for testing soon.

Fill the tent if you can....doing one plant, if something goes wrong like root rot, you start all over again. You'll want more than one or 2!

Sea of green, smaller plants, faster perpetual harvests. You want a nice even canopy to soak up as much light as possible.

Or just do a few bigger plants

But fill the tent!

If you need some seeds lmk. 🤝

I got cheap randoms you can pheno hunt or some more expensive bought genetics.

I'd argue that people only vote out of generational habit and brainwashing.

Most of us here are 22-55 years old.

When and how in the last 30yrs has the government or state made your life easier?

#Amethyst sideways on your phone and you get a weird shadow bar on the right.

No perhaps about it...

I built a note scheduler, an rpg game with in game items for sale via zaps, and lots more.

Today: "here's your demo version"

They are doing it on purpose.

They can't have nobodies like myself building apps and things. We won't use the ones we're told to.

I'm 99.9% certain free deepseek 5mo ago could do everything I've done and pay for with Claude....

🙄

Irritating asf.

Yes. Most Americans are going through this.

Nobody knows what they enjoy anymore.

(other than a screen infront of their face)

The constant work, and having to work harder just to live, has erased everyone's memory of what joy from life is. It's why everyone's on edge anywhere you go and definitely sewhat responsible for how people act online now a days if you ask me.

For reference, it only took 3 generations to completely forget how to be self sufficient.

From our great grandparents, grandparents, our parents, and now we don't know shit about fuck.

Their system isn't flawed, it's working perfectly as they intend.

Let's make ours.

Build on bitcoin.

The problem, is that you’re celebrating the government's need to use a sledgehammer, while ignoring they are building a better cage.

​You bring up Venezuela. When a fiat currency completely collapses, of course the regulatory friction breaks down. That's the exception that proves the rule. The US Government's goal is to prevent the dollar from ever reaching that point, and they are using containment to do it.

​The ultimate game theory move isn't to kill Bitcoin...

You praise "jurisdictional arbitrage." The US government, with its control over global banking (SWIFT, USD clearing), doesn't need to regulate everywhere simultaneously. They only need to declare any non-KYC peer-to-peer operator who touches the dollar system an OFAC risk or MSB violator. That threat turns every major global financial institution into a containment agent for the US.

Your circular economy of goods and services is entirely reliant on the stability of the container—the country itself. People switch to Bitcoin in Turkey because the state has already failed to provide a stable environment. In the US, the state is actively working to ensure the utility of fiat for everyday life remains overwhelmingly greater than the 'friction' of the Bitcoin economy. You can't pay your mortgage, your corporate taxes, or buy industrial goods with Bitcoin without hitting a massive regulatory wall.

They are not going to make it "annoying everywhere." They are going to make it expensive to use as money and easy to hold as a monitored asset (via ETFs, regulated custodians, etc). You end up with a high-friction digital gold that funds a few niche black markets, while the state maintains its monetary monopoly.

​The US government is not like Venezuela or those other places, and it will contain its threat before the pressure of fiat failure forces a collapse.

You are betting the cage will rust before the animal dies of starvation inside. I'm telling you they just added a new lock.

Bitcoin adoption accelerates where state control fails, and that's true in unstable jurisdictions, but we are discussing the US government. They operate under the principle of what they can't control, they must contain.

​Circular Economy is Niche Friction, Not Systemic Control. How many goods and services can a person actually acquire using a peer-to-peer Bitcoin transfer without interacting with a KYC'd business or eventually cashing out to pay for a house, a car, or taxes? Your "end game" is a niche system that only services a fraction of the economy.

​The government does not need to stop peer-to-peer transfers; they only need to pass regulation that makes the recipient of a peer-to-peer transfer a de facto Money Services Business, subjecting them to massive regulatory overhead, fines, and jail time for not having KYC/AML procedures. That threat alone stops the circular economy from becoming an actual parallel system.

​You call it friction; I call it a regulatory cost barrier. When the cost of using Bitcoin to pay for common goods exceeds the utility, you are forced back to fiat. It's a quiet, bloodless form of control that is absolutely scalable.

​Saying "they can't stop it" is not the same as saying "they can't neuter it." The government is not trying to kill Bitcoin! They are trying to contain its utility so that it remains a speculative asset rather than a functional currency that challenges the dollar's monetary global monopoly. You are praising the friction while ignoring that the friction itself is the government's containment strategy working perfectly.

Your "circular economy" is a fantasy the government can afford to ignore until it's large enough to matter, at which point friction, becomes control.

More opinions the better. Figured I'd open this conversation up to others aswell.

Very neat topic and discussion.

Fun indeed!

Your argument boils down to.....Bitcoin is successful because it forces the state to use a less scalable, more expensive tool (physical seizure) than fiat (remote freezing/inflation).

What the government can't control, it must contain.

But you are ignoring how the state achieves control without physically kicking in doors!

​Chokepoint Control (Containment): The government doesn't need to seize Bitcoin from millions of individuals. They need to control the on/off ramps—the regulated exchanges, the banks, the custodians. The moment you try to convert your Bitcoin into dollars, property, or goods in the regulated economy, you expose yourself to their power. That choke point is scalable, and it achieves their containment goal.

​The Incentive Trap: You praise Bitcoin for forcing them to use the most expensive form of power projection (physical arrest/seizure). But this only applies to people who already have massive stacks that warrant that expensive effort. For the average person, the government simply raises the cost and complexity of using Bitcoin until it's impractical, forcing them back into fiat for most transactions.

​The True Game Theory: The uneven playing field doesn't end just because the tool is slower. The state's move is to legislate Bitcoin out of utility for the masses—either through capital gains complexity, KYC/AML enforcement on all major interaction points, or outright banning its use as money. Why go through the expensive process of physical seizure when you can simply make the asset functionally useless within the system?

The government doesn't need to win the technical fight for every wallet; it just needs to win the regulatory and enforcement fight at the perimeter to maintain its monopoly on power and money.

That argument is pure cope and your response misses the fundamental point entirely.

You're focusing on the technical failure ("bad opsec," "custody failure") to ignore the political failure that game theory can't fix. The uneven playing field. The point isn't that criminals had weak security....the point is that the government has the power to spend massive resources to track, prosecute, and ultimately seize $14 billion in an asset designed to be unconfiscatable. This act of force fundamentally changes the game by proving the state doesn't need to abide by market rules or "vested interest" logic, it can use its legal and physical might to contain or remove any asset that threatens its control, showing that the promise of hard money is constantly vulnerable to a powerful, centralized actor.

they seize bitcoin to increase their stack of the limited supply, while you have to work to earn or buy it...

US charges Cambodian executive in massive crypto scam and seizes more than $14 billion in bitcoin.

Game theory goes out the window on an uneven playing field.
