Christian, Bitcoin, building things to live an independent life. Day job is ML/AI I write at huwfulcher.com

Cautiously optimistic about the news of the big investors getting into #Bitcoin. But I’m concerned.

This doesn’t change the public image. The uneducated public only know Bitcoin as an investment, a way to “get rich”.

The real beauty of Bitcoin being decentralised, private and trust-less is hidden.

Let’s get more excited when major payment providers start integrating the lightning network and make transacting with Bitcoin mainstream.

Do you think they will ever decide to go back to it? I don’t know enough about economics to understand if that’s possible or a good idea.

It’s one of those days where I want to scream into the void

Really feeling it this week 😵‍💫

Good morning #nostr, how are we all this morning?

#grownostr

Power cut just ruined my home servers record of 267 days uptime 🥲🥲

Literally itching to build something decentralised. Seriously had my eyes opened the last few days to things like DeFi.

Would love to help contribute to work in the UK to expand Bitcoin's influence. If anyone has any ideas please let me know!

Just sitting thinking about what decentralised tech we could come up with next to solve the worlds problems

I’m still new to decentralised technology and cryptocurrencies so I’ll get things wrong.

I’m not saying that Ethereum is overall better than Bitcoin. I’m saying it serves a different purpose through the use of smart contracts.

Bitcoin could develop its smart contracts out more but I don’t see that being the right move. Bitcoin is a form of currency. Ether is as well but it’s used more for paying fees for running smart contracts as opposed to goods and services

I should have clarified what I meant.

Ethereum was built to build decentralised technologies with smart contracts and the EVM.

I know Bitcoin now has a form of smart contracts but they’re still simple in comparison.

Interesting read but how do you square it with:

Mark 12:13-17

Paying Taxes to Caesar

[13] And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and some of the Herodians, to trap him in his talk. [14] And they came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are true and do not care about anyone’s opinion. For you are not swayed by appearances, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?” [15] But, knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why put me to the test? Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” [16] And they brought one. And he said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.” [17] Jesus said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they marveled at him.

Good morning all! #plebchain #grownostr

Good night #nostr 😴
