If this is what it takes for Bitcoiners to finally accept that Apple is hostile to freedom, so be it.

Why centralize it?

Bitcoin will buy Blackrock… few

“bitcoiners would ignore their fork and carry on with the current chain”

This is what I mean though. Bitcoiners would continue running nodes that accept only real Bitcoin blocks, and reject blocks built by miners that are “blackrock blocks”.

Point of blocksize wars was that nodes have more control, no?

Miners can be captured by state actors, corporations, whatever, but it’s up to the noderunners to accept the blocks that get mined. That’s my understanding at least, but trying to fill in any gaps 🙏

I'm here for half a decade and still suffer from fomo every time Bitcoin dumps 🤣

I just discovered that in the BlackRock ETF filing there's a clause that says that in case of fork, BlackRock will be free to choose which fork they think is the real bitcoin.

Imagine this scenario: in a couple of year, the BlackRock ETF become so huge that it have a significant percentage in the whole bitcoin marketcap.

At this point, someone just release a "green" POS based bitcoin fork and BlackRock switch to support it.

What will happen is that the real bitcoin price will fall and everybody will start to support the "green" bitcoin because all the money are there.

Thoughts?

Bitcoiners, help me reason through this please?

For a “BlackRock fork” to mean anything, it would have no relationship to how much Bitcoin they own.

They would need to run a majority of the network’s nodes to then force a consensus about the new correct chain.

And I have a hard time imagining that they’ll spin up hundreds of thousands of nodes faster than individual actual bitcoiners will in the coming years…

Am I missing something here? nostr:note1s9gljgza6uyzcgq63u49lsfmau3d6jznyg3428m3fya0mfz8j9asnekkxj

What does Bitcoin have to do with gender dysphoria?

Absolutely. Its so permanent which is what makes me so sad. I’m all about Bitcoin, but these folks don’t know how bad of a mistake they are making. It’s hard to watch. I feel like I’m witnessing a slow suicide.

Someone I used to go to church with and who has been struggling for years, just removed her breasts to further transition into a man. This is starting to hit way to close to home.

I don’t hate her for it, I am more concerned about what’s causing this type of pain.

What would you do?

UTXO tech is profound -- absolutely -- and that eUTXO ? --- Wild fam ... wild. --- Bitcoin is inevitable. -- Together WE are unstoppable. -- It's finna be lit; lets get it!
