How to win in life:

1. Buy #Bitcoin in self custody

2. Wait

Any Bitcoin company that asks for your name is really just an agent of the government

If you don't see that, maybe you're an agent too 🧐

They'll say they are "building bridges" with legacy finance

But it's no bridge; it's a leash

You cannot "own" #Bitcoin in the traditional sense of owning stuff.

No matter what governments, courts, chain-anal people, or anyone else tells you, there is no way of proving that someone DOESN'T know a string of information such as a private key.

From this perspective, satoshis aren't ever transferred but rather reorganized on the timechain for communication purposes.

The twelve magic words do not belong to anyone. They're just twelve words.

What Bitcoin makes so blatantly obvious is that money was never anything but information.

A ban on "self-hosted wallets" is as absurd as a ban on using your brain.

Such a ban would have severe consequences.

It would deny you the right to keep a secret while granting the government the right to claim that you do, making everyone a criminal.

YOU would have to prove that you DON'T know something, which is impossible.

You would be guilty until proven innocent, which cannot be proven.

Any law trying to stop or restrict Bitcoin usage is nothing less than a crime against humanity.

IMHO, the Bitcoin community should do everything in its power to prevent such laws. Your ability to use a communications network shouldn't depend on where you were born.

Do your part and educate as many people as you can as often as possible.

Speech is never free but always costly. It's high time to separate speech and state!

Every zap you make is an offence to the US government.

Doesn't Mr. Joseph Robinette Biden Jr know 2024 is an election year and you shouldn't be making enemies?

These people are so good at losing vote banks. Bruh, if you and your party want to be communists, at least win the election before fucking us over.

Good question. I've researched a bit but i found nothing that explicitly said that this parameter removes ordinals.

Is it really this simple? Don’t have to run knots?

They are paying fees (giving away their bitcoin)

To disable runes and ordinals and RGB and other shitcoinery in your node please enable

datacarriersize=0

in your bitcoin.conf file. This has some implications like disabling paynim (Samourai nicknames) but not very important ones, you will still route payments and open LN channels.

Please share, this is a very important advise. If enough nodes filter this shit, we can send a message and force shitcoiners to find direct routes to miners, exposing the miners that reject this important job of spam filtering.

Let's start a revolution by cleaning up our mempools.

#bitcoin #runes #ordinals #bitcoinconf #shitcoins

Done.

I want to do this, but I don't want censor myself out of seeing market rates for mempool fees on my own node so I will not be doing this. I already worry enough about opening and closing LN channels as it is. I have no fucks left to give to shitcoiners 🤷‍♂️

Liquid Network

Liquid Network is extremely undervalued. People are still thinking about coinjoins and arguing among themselves when they have a much cheaper method.

Remember that transactions on Liquid are confidential, only the signer of the transaction and the receiver can know what amount has been sent, for them Borromean ring signatures are used.

Manual for Dummies:

- You make a peg-in of the amount you want to anonymize, if you have an elements node (Liquid node) or use the decentralized Exchange Tdex the cost will be only the cost of the chain transaction, if you do not have any of the above available you can make a peg-in with sideswap for 0.1%.

- Once you have converted your btc inside Liquid to L-BTC you make a peg-out with sideswap, do not make a peg-out of the same total amount that you have made the peg-in and try to space it in time if there are several. The cost of the sideswap peg-out is 0.1% plus the fee of the chain transaction.

One way to avoid also performing the peg-in is to buy L-BTC directly for example on Bisq.

In the best case, the whole operation will cost you the fee of two blockchain transactions and 0.1% in the worst case 0.2% plus the two blockchain transactions, I recommend you to set up your own node elements or use the decentralized Exchange tdex to perform the peg-in without permission and avoid that 0.1%.

When you make a peg-out you receive btc that are retained in the federation, the allocation is random, so seen from the outside, Liquid is like a classic mixer but without centralized custody as it is federated, your coins enter the federation and when you leave with a peg-out you are given other coins that are not your initial coins thus breaking the heuristics of your initial coins.

All this is done without any KYC, you can increase the anonymity using tor or a vpn in sideswap so that there is no trace of your ip.
