Coin Center's case challenging Congress’s expansion of Section 6050I of the tax code was dismissed yesterday.
You should be paying attention, because this will impose mass surveillance on ordinary Americans, no CBDC required…
Remember that sneaky addition to Biden’s Infrastructure Bill in 2021 that most people forgot about?
Now that Coin Center’s case was dismissed, on Jan 1, 2024 this law will require anyone receiving crypto / #Bitcoin payments > $10,000 to report to the transaction to the government AND report the personally identifiable information of the sender as well…
No warrant required.
From Coin Center:
“The reporting mandate would force Americans using cryptocurrency to share intrusive details about themselves, both with each other and with the federal government. Under the terms of the mandate, everyday senders and receivers of cryptocurrency would be forced to reveal their names, Social Security numbers, home addresses, and other sensitive personal identifying information.
Receivers would then have FIFTEEN DAYS to report all of that information about both parties, along with the details of their transactions, to the federal government.
The 2021 amendment’s reporting mandate would also require the receivers to maintain records of their transactions and the personal identifying information of senders for five years.”
This is a blatantly unconstitutional move by the Biden Administration.
The question is: will any of the pro-Bitcoin candidates speak up about this?

The federal government is insistent on being the enemy of the people, and the enemy of freedom and liberty.
Freedom tech is pushing us in the right direction though. The sacrifices of our ancestors were not in vain.
#Bitcoin on lightning rails isn't just the future - it's here. Are you excited?

Value transfer is never going to be the same ;)
Is schiff on nostr?
Bring us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
Not that I ever use TikTok, but has someone attempted to make a TikTok style NOSTR client? Obviously the content would be pretty scarce right now, but it might pull in some more of the zoomer generation.

Okay I found it. Thank you so much. Didn't realize I had to add an exception to windows defender firewall. Seems to be working now 👍👍
I added lines to the Bitcoin.conf file as such.
server=1
rpcuser=xxxxx
rpcpassword=xxxxx
[main]
rpcbind=127.0.0.1
rpcbind=10.0.0.10
rpcallow=127.0.0.1
rpcbind=10.0.0.49
I was not sure if I was supposed to use my public IP or my network IP.
I don't know how to allow Bitcoin Core to accept connections on port 8332. Is that the setting that says "Connect through SOCKS proxy (default proxy):"?
Can anyone help me connect #Sparrow wallet to my #BitcoinCore node that is running on a different PC on the same network? I tried using Sparrow's guide, but for some reason it's not connecting.
Any videos or advice would be greatly appreciated!
My network uses 10.0.0.x format and ipv6. I don't know if that's part of the problem. I don't know a lot about networks.
Thanks!
Why is everyone talking about #garlic?
Those look very tasty
Are we supposed to be able to send lightning payments without setting up inbound liquidity? I sent 50k sats via lightning on cash app, and the payment is stuck on "pending"
