Which one is nostr:npub1cudap5kkjdvnv78v08m3748afshj0u3zh9h34svrf4nhn07gn4lscflujc?
Today he ran into Hugo, his dog doppelgÀnger!
Or is it doggelgĂ€nger? đ¶đ¶ 
It better not be cause a doppleganger is YOU...that you see before you die. more like a doggy dead-ringer lol
As I discussed with nostr:npub1n3sjlzmhpu8rl56umtptc4lua6zkretq2p82yhytnmlcuq639vlqd0te5l and nostr:npub12lzwey2hjc2ce0stwa3ldhg04h93wj263lvdhrf87qfzz9jsggeqwuntw2 on a recent nostr:npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld thereâs a big difference between governments taking a crisis and using it for authoritarian control, and the facts of science around climate change.
Climate change is real and itâs bad, particularly data around global sea temperature increases and warming in general. But authoritarians are also bad, and thereâs ways we can combat climate change without their misaligned and ineffective tactics (like some of the benefits from bitcoin mining!) nostr:note1yana62et37l3uw8r390rxk53leycfmxdl9pc95mu33hvwaylayaqw6vzq6
Climate change is inevitable. That meme is cringe tho...
nostr:npub1n3sjlzmhpu8rl56umtptc4lua6zkretq2p82yhytnmlcuq639vlqd0te5l, you pointed out that the energy FUD is not likely to be a long term issue for Bitcoin regulation (thanks to the hard work of many badass bitcoiners, including yourself), but that the KYC/AML âclean coinsâ surveillance state is a much more compelling move for regulators to take, with little opposition.
If this does make it harder for KYC and non-KYC coins to function in a shared economy, doesnât this likely mean that the US âBitcoin economyâ is forced to fall behind? If the countryâs citizens can only legally use (or hodl) a small portion of available coins, thereâs less available wealth to save. Iâm thinking over a 20-50 year period.
It also deters investment from the wealthiest-to-be class (bitcoiners of today, fast forward a few decades).
I guess itâs too early to tell, but youâve got me thinking. What does bitcoining look like in a state with strict regulation around nodes, mining, and KYC?
Proper Bitcoining will perhaps âlook likeâ civil disobedience...
I'd honestly be more concerned when the US govt tries to prevent other nation states from dumping their assets(esp US ones) to aquire BTC. They may prevent/slow their own citizens from it but other nations might seize on the opportunity to aquire that kind of relatively unristricted liquidity...
