I recall they divorced round about the time the Epstein thing came out. Don't you think his wife discovered/knew what had happened and decided to get a divorce then ?

What do you think of using Monero for transactions ? Keeping one's savings in btc and using monero to transact privately when accepted ? nostr:nprofile1qqs0cpan3knpzta7dn2wpyas2l976yyxjfc9rqt88uedt4qw4h4dfkgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerfw36x7tnsw43z7gssffq makes it very easy.
Shortsighted imho. Saylor is providing access to institutions and we czn totally live alongside with self custody.
Him, not her :)
Do you mean there won't be on/off-ramp ? I understand there might be issues with spam but anyone can still transact in full sovereignty right ?
#Op_Return I found this article very interesting on why censorship in the form of Knots is quite useless: https://blog.bitmex.com/the-unstoppable-jpg-in-private-keys/
Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand: there is a parallel to be drawn between Ayn Rand's protagonists following John Galt's lead, withdrawing from socialist society and people deciding to denominate their savings in Bitcoin: we are opting out of the dilutive fiat system just like they are opting out of a society that has institutionalysed theft. The values driving Ayn Rand's heroes are eerily close to that of most bitcoiners although, how many have read Ayn Rand in the space?
“I swear—by my life and my love of it—that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.”: These are the pre-requisites to joining Galt's Gultch, his hidden valley. Similarly, bitcoiners are not fleeing a fiat regime as much as they are getting away from the socialist ideology that is feeding on it. Whether to provide for the parasites running governments or for the needy populace electing them into power, the socialist system of redistribution is at the heart of the fiscal runaway and demonatisation.
Shouldn't the fact that this market exists alert us though? I learned at BTC++ in Riga that the ability of the NSA to analyse data far outweighs our capacity to produce it. I agree with you today, but although we're talking in absoluts, we are really thinking about the futur. When nostr:nprofile1qqsgfhhxuemwtwm8kjk5uppv7uxtmp5pz4wm2dv59lxx5pfnsk98ysqpzemhxue69uhkzarvv9ejumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvs7kac3v mentionned the window of opportunity closing on bitcoin regarding privacy I understand it was meant both in terms of the law protecting our rights and solutions deployed at the protocol level. If today a market exists for so called kyc bitcoin, what about tomorrow? The way I see it is we are left with the option to vote with our feet and move to jurisdictions where such markets have no influence on our holdings.
You can verify tohe history of any utxo. That's how it's done. And before calling anyone names, be open and try and understand others' perspective. I had a umiversity professor, much more knowladgeable tgan you and I, OG bitcoiner, whom I met at MoneroKonf in Prague this year, expain that Nitcoin is non-fungible. Yes, onchain, nothing n stop you but gvt whether you like it or not can make you a criminal from your transactions. His argument was tge existence of kyced versus non-kyced bitcoin with two different market prices. I don't owmn any Monero but I'm receptive to the argument. There is no privacy onchain in Bitcoin, only anonymity. Privacy if anything comes from the cost of figuring out who's who and who owns what.

What about the non-fungibility of bitcoin? Is this a concern? On top of the KYC, non-KYC types, we now have another form of censorship on our hands don't we?
Yes. Anyone wanting to mine to their own pool using their own node with #DatumGateway have to be running #Knots. I'm not one for censorship and I think the non-fungibility of BTC is being overlooked by many so I'm thinking of running another node with core installed so I can keep playing with Bitaxe-like miners and still support uncensorable bitcoin.
Another important reason users are running Knots as opposed to Core is Core doesn't allow for home mining. Or the #Bitaxe community is growing pushing more users to run Knots.
Nooooooooo ! That's bearish news coming from Cathie !
How many galons of seed oil are necessary to produce the same energy as one gallon of oil ? Yeah, quite a lit. It's just not the same fuel.
Does it free humanity from state control though ? We are yet to solve privacy in bitcoin. Is #Monero one answer ?
Are they well capitalised though. Brought this up with Jack Mallers at BTC Prague. Companies with enough capital will be fine in a downturn but the smaller ones who are overleveraged might become forced sellers and add to downward pressure. So much the betterbmind you cause we'll get to stack for even less.
