Love to know how that building didn’t have SS on it.

Realizing Nostr is the answer in real time.

hot take:

the ultra masculine, carnivore, conservative right and “based” version of bitcoin maximalism is a psyop to alienate the community from the actually competent coders who are nothing like that (one guy turned his blue hair into a trademark, another one became a woman) and maybe replace them with “based” but code illiterate parasites.

Melbourne, where you have to use paper straws and bamboo cutlery because “single use plastics” were banned by the state government but every building lobby has a brolly bagger.

Don’t think too hard anon or the cognitive dissonance will melt your brain.

It's very strange for me, first summer after months eating much more meat and stopped using sunglasses. I stayed in the sun for hours the other day and zero sunburns. It's like bitcoin, sounds too good to be true but simply works.

the initial idea of satoshi was great but if you mind taking the trouble and reading some of the debates on the bitcoin talk forum there were some really serious concerns about the openness of bitcoin from the very early day on. you will find public talks about how at least the sender and receiver information could be hidden but satoshi didn't know how to implement it. maybe the tech back then didn't exist. yes, he didn't spend his coins. but this does nothing good, does it? it brings uncertainty. in fact it could be seen as a possible risk if at one point +1 million coins would awake which were considered lost before. the halving period was chosen purely arbitrarily. if it was 2 years or 8 years bitcoin wouldn't be worse or better. it's all about the public known information and predictability. this also doesn't have anything to do with low or high time preference. even if it would, low or high time preference is neither good nor bad. what is low or high time preference is subjective, depends on human individuals and can't be measured in any way. it's unimportant how fast the coins are mined. even in bitcoin 94% of the total supply is already mined. the 6% spread over the next 120 years really don't matter. as i already mentioned, it's all about predictibility. these informations were known to the public from very early on. on top of that monero has tail-emissions, so feel free to mine monero, have luck and always get 0.6 XMR + fees :) (though I'll say I don't have a strong opinion on that one. it may be OK during the bootstrapping phase).

cheers

If Satoshi left, and you don't know who they are, how are you so sure the creator of Moneros protocol isn't Satoshi? Especially suspicious when hes outlining almost an exact prototype of Monero in detail in conversations on old Bitcointalk forums.

Private, fungible, targeted mining censorship resistant, and cheap to transact. You are right they are definitely not the same.

I'm hearing about similar occurrences. I think it may be scammers trying to "establish" themselves on phone networks by making calls that aren't scams (for a while), then later performing scam calls.

Or maybe they're recording your voice for later impersonation.

Or maybe they are judging your reaction to what they say, to size you up for a future scam.

Probably something entirely different, but still a scam. Scams are just out of control right now, and getting way way worse.
