College football buyouts are something else.
We’re being charitable with the word charitable here. 
Perhaps, we live in one of many parallel universes.
Be glad this is the one with #bitcoin
Banning this writer won’t keep #bitcoin down

LMAO I made the top post on r/bitcoin
This has been so entertaining. Blog post incoming.
Amen to this. I have “letting people be wrong is a superpower” in my bio, almost as a reminder to myself.
I almost never follow it and constantly fall into a trap of moral crusading and dumb arguments. It reminds me how human I am.
Indeed, it’s the sort of thing you can never falsify. Even the whitepaper is presented in an academic format.
Scientists have published studies on bitcoin, but in doing so, they’re disqualified from being “scientific.”
I imagine it was Rule II, which is the most highbrow form of gatekeeping I’ve ever seen. 
Having been a reporter, I can vouch for that flaw.
It’s a field where you ask generalists to provide expertise on everything and be arbiters of truth. Editors and publishers are frequently even more out of touch. The most you can do is share received wisdom.
#Bitcoin on Reddit: A three-act comedy 
What if I told you every conspiracy theory was actually concocted by the Illuminati to distract us from what’s really going on?
There’s only one swear word I can’t abide, and that is “nee.”
I think that second paragraph is well-put. I try to operate from first principles.
Disinformation comes from both sides. It’s easy to attack the powers that be, but the answer isn’t complete uniformity of thought on the other end. Iconoclasts need their own iconoclasts. Nostr is as echoey an echo chamber as you’ll find.
The tenets of bitcoin are easily provable. I wish more stuff was, and most other stuff I encounter in this space isn’t. It’s often hearsay, something someone said on a podcast, or someone putting themselves forward as an expert with somewhat adjacent credentials if they have any at all.
I frequently trust the experts not because they’re anointed but because they have sustained an interest over a long period of time and typically present findings with evidence. I trust Isaac Newton because I don’t have to underwrite gravity from first principles.
If one man’s shitpost is another man’s worldview, I shouldn’t be the only one questioning it.
Everything in “bitcoin” that isn’t bitcoin
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
One dude getting killed does not equal a giant ring involving the ruling class.
Hypotheses are fun but without data, it’s just spitballing.
I don’t know but I also don’t know if it matters.
There are plenty of logical reasons why a known creep would get killed in prison that don’t involve a Machiavellian scheme that goes all the way to the top.
