I haven't enjoyed an operating system since Windows 3.1

Wait....maybe I haven't enjoyed ANYTHING since windows 3.1

One of the more diabolical charts to show for affordability in the U.S.

Home prices to household income

Kevin O’Leary and Laura Trump visited Pubkey. What’s Kevin’s advice? “Start small, buy a 1/3 of a bitcoin.” Also, “don’t self custody, you’ll lose it.”Go to a reputable exchange like Coinbase.

This could have been so good for Bitcoin. But what pleb was watching that would have thought, yeah sure let me go put 28k in something I know nothing about? If the story was intended to educate and persuade common people to get into and save in ₿itcoin, I think it missed the mark. What a 🤡.

I'd honestly rather look at Nostr and see a gossiping post about Sally from accounts at your work than know what Dan bloody Held thinks about anything.

Overcooked it a bit

nothing enrages me more than government incompetence

What kind of internet would Jesus build?

What about Buddha?

Or Lao Tzu?

For any survivor fans out there WTF WAS THAT AT TRIBAL COUNCIL LOLOLOL

The SBR is happening whether any of us like it or not. We can’t create a free system and then expect the government to come in and do the right thing. Relying on them to burn the bitcoin or create laws to not seize it only creates a temporary and local solution. We shouldn’t be asking the government to do this because that creates a perverse incentive to the devs to create technology that nests within that framework. What happens when the government doesn’t want to play by their own rules? We have to build technology that resists this no matter who is in charge.

The government will likely keep the seized BTC, and we should use it as an incentive to innovate and create a protocol with the fitness to withstand future seizures. Adopting a free monetary system meant giving up the consumer protection that the government currently provides, there were bound to be casualties. This is way bigger than bitfinex and the Silk Road, the long game is what matters.

Don’t get me wrong, if they return the coins to the rightful owners, that would be great, as long as we operate as if they didn’t. I don’t think returning the coins now would mean anything at all to future regimes that want to steal it. I get wanting to go along when the government aligns with our interests, but there’s always the next election. We can’t get complacent.

Good News

Just so you know, over on X we talk shit about NOSTR every time it goes down.
