"If you can't beat em, join em." Sneakiest attack is from behind/within.
It was about time for Core monopoly (and single point of failure) to end. To improve networks overall immune system this fiasco had to happen.
Dramatic locally, evolutionary globally.
Running Bitcoin Hard Core?

Dining at a nice Mexican restaurant... First thought that came to mind after seeing this picture was nostr:nprofile1qqs8fl79rnpsz5x00xmvkvtd8g2u7ve2k2dr3lkfadyy4v24r4k3s4sppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wshscy566r 😄
The corrupt legacy system will try EVERY single attack vector to undermine the bitcoin ecosystem to keep their totalitarian system alive.
Put yourself in THEIR shoes. What would you do to protect your family? - absolutely EVERYTHING.
🔥 Lobbying bitcoin core devs (Attack on the node operators)
🔥 Mining centralization (51% attack, spam propagation)
🔥 Hostile corp and gov overreach (BIS labels, high taxation)
🔥 False flag rug pulls (paper bitcoin, potential hard forks)
...
There are concerns and vulnerabilities but there are also remedies and solutions - self healing
💧Alternate node software like Knots
💧OCEAN mining with individual pool templates
💧Alternative media and social network like nostr
💧Ever growing bitcoin community, education
...
Solutions that evolve are like evolutionary mutations. But unlike being caused by chance, they are generated from necessity. Bitcoin saw the light of day out of necessity!
Zoomed in, the journey looks dramatic; zoomed out, the journey is inevitable and necessary.
IF Knots doesn't effectively filter spam, then what seems to be the problem? Why so hostile? It's effectively fork of core without handcuffs.
I generally respect your work a lot but it seems this comment is biased due to being affiliated with MARA (which is notorious for broadcasting garbage on the chain).
No worries! My Alby hub wasn’t connected to Primal for some reason that’s why it was failing. I just joined nostr like a week ago so I’m a newbie. Maybe just the zap now works. If it doesn’t, it’s all good. I’m feeling blessed already in this community!!!
Thank you very much! I'll look into whats going on with my wallet. Here's the invoice:

Marcus Aurelius quote comes to mind: "Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth."
While most of the times the main stream content from "black screens" feeds us dead content e.g. it's difficult to reflect to or from, books on the other hand, are intellectually more dynamic because they enable self reflection, imagination and world-understanding through thyself.
"Reader writes the book." If one reads enough books (self reflects enough) one, overtime, piece by piece, becomes themself... a pawn ... a QUEEN, ... a KING.
