Very kind of them to not do so after you lent them interest free money for 1 year.

I rarely say this to plebs so far down the rabbitt hole, but you need MORE drugs

How do ratw limits play into this? 4 digit pin w/ 4 guesses vs sha-256 and infinite guesses. Not saying quantum isnt bs but no one talks abut bank rate limits on login attempts.

those courts were referring to the rights of Americans not 14th amendment U.S. Citizens.

according to Tom Luongo this is exactly opposite---just part of the south american black market arm.

but you'll miss out on all the cybering!

That are composed of people with human incentives.

hope the Aussie plebs fire up the 3D printer!

percale from LLBEAN is solid. no thread count games, just good quality natural fabric (and 1 year to decide if you like it)

What a WEIRD coincidence. Oh well!

so as long as fiat printing keeps going up and to the right the future is whatever we say it is.

yea but how 'bout that giblet gravy??

Awesome to compare psychonaut notes and happy that he finally opened up about his experiences. I do agree though that it's best kept AT MOST a 1-2x a year practice.

Hello there

exactly. I'd keep the overall redesign but just make the bee itself more "friendly and approachable" than corporate and soulless.

meat inflation index should only be measured in whole beeves direct from the rancher!

in bitcoin we refer to this 'strong internal locus of control' as simply being retarded.

I dont speak letterkenny, sir

A good friend is finally taking the orange pill (likely despite my attempts, not because of them). It reminded me of that exciting time in my own Bitcoin journey because his is mirroring mine in several ways.

At first, like many, all I cared about was “how does this benefit me” in personal finance (rightly so). Then, I thought…ok but could it even be real or more marketing bs? Diving into the tech then answered that.

People can preserve the value they produce (forever). This frees them to hone their craft and live their best lives and build their families’ futures instead of having to become part time stock traders just to keep what they earned from being inflated away by central banks.

All it asks is for one to admit their preconceived notions about it were wrong, and use it—choose to embrace the truth, protection and freedom that shine through its impenetrable walls of encryption.

Then I realized the 8 pages of the Bitcoin whitepaper totally revolutionize the global power industry (in addition to wall st finance, spoils of war and even podcasting) and my brain really started to tingle. From the start it set out to solve problems worth hundreds of trillions but the shockwaves are even larger.

Everywhere I began to see massive sectors it will revolutionize and how early in adoption we are (even today).

Saotshi gave such a beautiful gift to the world and then walked away without a dime (with over $110b on the table) so that it can’t be corrupted by even himself and that made me redefine how much good a single man can do. Likely the greatest man of a generation and we’ll never know his identity.

Energy based money was a discovery, not an invention and I feel blessed to have it appear during our lifetimes—-just when humanity needed it most.

didn't realize the game of thrones guy was a bitcoiner. sick!

Have used this a lot. So far just do disputing predatory private parking tickets as test cases but it really works!

Palestine was only a fraction israeli and they were treated well (could buy property, full citizen status, etc.). After balfour which gave zionists a home within british palestine, zionists moved in with the express of taking over all of palestine despites littler support for zionism within the european jewish community. They pushed ahead anyway and now they are completing this mission.

I was curious why this won't set precent for future cases, so if anyone else is wondering, here's what I found:

Here's why that often means it won't create binding precedent:

Guilty Pleas Skip the Trial Process: When defendants plead guilty (as Keonne Rodriguez and William Hill did here), they're essentially admitting to the charges without contesting them in court. There's no need for a trial where lawyers argue over evidence, legal interpretations, or the application of laws like the Bank Secrecy Act (which regulates money transmission). Without that adversarial process, the judge doesn't issue a substantive opinion that could interpret the law in a new way.

No Detailed Judicial Opinion: In a plea deal, the court's role is mostly to accept the plea, ensure it's voluntary, and impose a sentence. There's rarely a written ruling that analyzes the law deeply enough to serve as precedent. For example, this case doesn't create a "landmark decision" on whether cryptocurrency mixing services (like Samourai's Whirlpool) qualify as money transmission under federal law—it's more of a resolution based on the specific facts and agreement.

Lack of Appeals: Precedent often solidifies through appeals, where higher courts review and affirm (or overturn) lower court decisions. A guilty plea typically waives the right to appeal on most grounds, so there's no opportunity for appellate courts to weigh in and create broader case law.

Plea Deals Are Fact-Specific: These agreements are negotiated between prosecutors and defendants, often to avoid the risks of trial. They're tailored to the individuals involved (e.g., the developers' roles in operating the wallet) and don't necessarily address bigger questions, like the legality of privacy-focused crypto tools in general. Future cases could still argue different interpretations without being bound by this outcome.

Broader Context in Crypto Cases

This isn't uncommon in cryptocurrency-related prosecutions. Similar cases, like those involving Tornado Cash or other mixing services, have sometimes gone to trial and set more precedent (e.g., by clarifying what counts as "money transmission"). However, when defendants plead guilty—often to get lighter sentences or avoid harsher charges—it limits the case's impact on the legal landscape. The article might be highlighting this to temper expectations that the pleas will "change the game" for crypto privacy tools.

They need to update their tech. CJs were an okay measure before lightning got to where it is.

Agreed. Everything OP said is true but very few bitcoiners actually hold the beliefs that they are decrying hence the ‘straw men’

monero is way easier to track than lightning, why would you want to reduce your privacy with some outdated shitcoin?

you took the most extreme interpretation of each and then knocked those strawmen out one by one.
