Good morning nostr! Yes you should stay humble and stack sats, but also you should never give into evil, but proceed ever more boldly against it.

At Blackwater Falls in Davis, WV with nostr:npub1e2rd2k45ym2jmctnysfadxumrvrr57vqj69ck6trt2y62c40r0kqs9lx8t for the West Virginia Mushroom Club annual foray (https://www.wvmushroomclub.net ).

Everyone needs to #touchgrass sometimes and this is a pretty nice place to do that.

Understood the halving as a specific event, or understood Bitcoin in general at a time that just so happened to be soon after a halving?

Bitcoin is not a democracy either, it’s a voluntary consensus. Soft forks aren’t adopted by majority vote. Unlike democracy, if 51% of nodes are running a soft fork, this has no bearing on my ability to run a node without that soft fork.

Bitcoin is not government, nor is it democracy. Bitcoin is voluntary governance, or if you prefer it is applied anarchy.

I think you’re using a different definition of state than the traditional one.

In no way is Bitcoin an organization that claims a territorial monopoly on the use of force.

Bitcoin is not a ruler, as states are. Bitcoin is rules without rulers.

Bitcoin can fulfill the claimed purpose of the state (provide governance), in that it enables governance without government, but that doesn’t make Bitcoin a state.

GM nostr! Everyone should read some Austrian Economics.

And how did this occur? Was it because the existing property owners were able to serve the needs of others well and acquire their property through voluntary exchange? Was it instead that they gained influence over the reins of power and then used that influence to grant themselves and their friends special privileges?
