Yeah that's a weird one... For the longest time I thought it was a variant until I flicked a bunch of switches on MacDown and suddenly it showed up as underscore and I thought, "oh, yeah that makes sense... Why wasn't it always like that"

I thought of that.

If true, that'd be insane...

What if you just say, yeah I'm not going to use another bank. Gonna put it in my mattress?

I mean it's crazy that we're even having to have this conversation...

UK is a joke

No for sure, but that doesn't change the fact that people implement rules in nuanced ways... And in this case he mentions being called a "liar". Maybe the next bank wouldn't be so exacting and punitive and petty.

Plus by closing the account he gets access to 100% of it immediately.

I mean, by all means exit to Bitcoin, but dude might be a no coiner. Trying to think of a solution within the system.

Closing the account would have been a better approach. Would they not have been forced to give him his cash?

I use unstoppable swap. It's the permission less atomic swap Samourai Wallet was going to implement natively in their wallet. Can find them on kycnot.me

### Censorship Resistance Property

- **Censorship Resistance Property**: Driven by transaction fees in Bitcoin.

- **Enforcement**: Similar to soft fork enforcement, majority hash power rejects non-censoring blocks.

- **Profitability**: Majority miners are profitable, making censorship cost-effective. Mining's anonymity allows control acquisition.

- **Fee Dynamics**: Censorship increases fees for unconfirmed transactions, incentivizing miners to confirm them.

- **Censorship Failure**: Non-censoring hash power can exceed censor's, unless subsidized by state via taxes.

- **State Role**: Must spend equivalent to fee premium to maintain censorship.

- **Fee Integration**: Essential for anonymity and resistance; block reward subsidies don't help.

- **Economic Impact**: Censorship might cause price collapse or increase. Survival depends on fee premiums.

- **Proof**: Impossible to prove sufficient fees or lack of censor subsidies, making resistance axiomatic.

I've made it. L0la spoke to me.

The internet is a weird fucking place...

Where else can you just talk to people...

### Causation Fallacy

- **Theory of Mining Following Price**: Suggests mining activity is dictated by historical price or reward value, implying miners lack influence over coin utility.

- **Initial Miner's Dilemma**: The first miner cannot rely on historical data; they must anticipate future returns, embodying entrepreneurial risk.

- **Predicting Future Value**: Miners can't accurately predict future reward values using historical data, as this would imply either static or unpredictable prices.

- **Market Dynamics**: Overestimation or underestimation of reward value leads to losses. Market competition pressures these errors towards elimination, but unpredictability prevents perfect alignment.

- **Production and Consumption**: Mining anticipates future demand, not reacting to historical data, creating the opportunity for consumption.

- **Miner's Role in Price**: Miners contribute to demand but don't set prices independently; their impact is similar to any other market participant with equivalent demand.

- **Asymmetry in Market**: Miners must anticipate demand and risk before transactions occur, highlighting that production must precede consumption, not the other way around.
