There is yet to be a silver bullet scaling solution for cryptocurrency. Instead, what we have for now, and possibly for a long long time, are many solutions each with distinct tradeoffs that will match different user needs.

The secret sauce to making this all work is LN.

Be a dad, or be a stepdad, or be an uncle, but have a positive impact on a kid's life. It's the most meaningful thing you will do as a man.

Customer feedback.

I recently learned that legislation has been drafted on Capitol Hill to classify *not re-using Bitcoin addresses* as "mixing"

There are also efforts to force "unhosted wallet providers" to collect user info for taxes

As well as to give power to Treasury to sanction any address (even Americans)

And a whole lot more bad stuff

IMO Coin Center does vital work to fight this and to protect privacy tech

They are a compact team and do a lot with the resources they have

They sue the OFAC and Treasury

They consider the Bank Secrecy Act unconstitutional and act accordingly

I just spent some time with their leadership team, asking questions, and came away impressed, I would strongly suggest a donation today

It seems to me that a lot of people don't seem to understand the significance of Michael Saylor's statements re Bitcoin Core funding, so I've unpacked my Saylor folder tracking his ties to US intelligence and statements shedding light on what the 'Gigachad' appears to understand by protecting the network's stability:

„If Bitcoin diverted all of their energy to make itself private and became known as a network of complete and utter privacy, it probably is counter productive to its own interests, because you don't really want the United States government to say Bitcoin is completely private, because now it becomes the perfect tool for money laundering, now it becomes the enemy, now we're going to shut it down.“

(Signing out of here for today because the billionaire cope gives me some serious second hand embarrassment – if you have something to say, you can zap me.)

what app is this ?

open source stages are the only purity left in those conferences

Bitcoin conferences are just big circle jerks of people who are obsessed with status.

How are plebs still falling for that shit.

Stop wasting your sats on people who don’t give a fuck about you.
