This is a scary development in the democratic country of Norway. In a broad coalition, the government wants to pass a bill prohibiting Bitcoin and crypto mining. At first, they blamed the widespread criminal activity, but this was short-lived after posting the results of The Chainalysis 2024 Crypto Crime Report showing a 0,34% crime rate in crypto (far less than in cash or bank system money). The Norwegian government switched tactics fast and now blames the extreme energy consumption. If they succeed in their campaign all mining will be banned even for educational and research purposes. If the bill passes it will be illegal to hash a string of numbers manually with pen and paper as this would be considered mining and a criminal act.

it won't be evil that destroys the world, but ignorant, midwit utopians 🙈
i'm a pathological reader, averaging 1 or 2 a week for the last 30 years. recently I've sped up my book consumption by doing my own little private book club with AI. I'm now consuming about 15-20 books a week, and some friends asked me to share what i'm learning, so i started writing daily book synopses on Substack under the name Bitesize books - please subscribe/read if interested, it's free.

me and my gf have already started building a second base in Mexico so we can flee Europe as and when it becomes necessary 🫡
(like it did during COVID 🙈)
a-men to that 🙌🏼🧡
I'm disappointed that nostr:nprofile1qqs2auxkkgfgylem580xrztp8ek5sf83s86k0vfq2feuz6y4lkhskgcpz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wchsztkr48 never got an answer to his question about what Bitcoin looks like to those who can't afford a UTXO.
This is an important question, maybe *the* important question. But it also underscores how much he diverged from his "pleb everyman" origins: this is very much not a newcomer question!
Guess I won't be on WBD to answer it, either!*
*Spoiler: I don't know the answer, but I can describe the possibilities and issues people can (and are!) exploring...
and also those that can't afford to wait out the volatility swings

congrats. looks awesome 🤙🏼
literally the secret: buy on red days, sell on green days. rinse and repeat. enjoy riches 😋
it makes me a little bit sad that the herd will be buying their sats after BlackRock, big banks and hedge funds. i guess there's no other way 😢
good hack, just don't overdo it, or your subconscious might feel like it's continually failing / falling short...
we're defined by our actions, not our intentions 💪🏻
