How sad it is that some consider themselves Bitcoiners when they are nothing more than lackeys of the state.
Run away from anyone who supports stablecoins. If they were shit to begin with, now they are ultra-shit. They are a way to finance state debt thanks to your beloved President Trump and his new regulation.
Anyone who applauds this is literally retarded on a god-level.
I have to say that the Trump administration's strategy has been brilliant. Using Bitcoin as bait to create this new financing system has been a good strategy to get the retards with no critical thinking skills to take the bait. A common mistake is to think that the state machinery is inefficient. Quite the contrary, the state machinery is very efficient at doing its job, which is to steal.
In Spain, the government literally takes 50% of what I earn from my salary alone. If I add other taxes such as VAT, it takes practically 70% or more of what I earn.
With 50% of my salary, I could:
- Take out private health insurance that is much better than public coverage, which is a real disaster.
- Enroll my children in a top private school.
- Save for my retirement and not need a pension.
- Pay for private roads, if necessary. In Spain, the concept of private highways already exists and should be extended to all roads so that the state does not administer them, and now you will understand why.
- Take out private security insurance (if it existed).
And I assure you that I would have more than half of my money left over.
Why the hell do we need a state? It is totally inefficient. In exchange, they take more from me than it would cost me to replace all the services offered by the state, and even for quality services, I would still have half my money left over.

British police show up at the home of a cancer patient demanding an apology for a social media post.
The British police's visit to Deborah Anderson, a cancer patient and member of the Free Speech Union, exposes the disturbing direction the UK has taken with regard to freedom of speech.
An officer from Thames Valley Police went to her home to suggest that she apologize for a comment on Facebook that had allegedly “offended” someone.
Anderson, a U.S. citizen, refused to retract her statement and questioned the absurd police priority in a country with serious unsolved crimes. The episode is reminiscent of the arrest of screenwriter Graham Linehan for three posts on X, confirming a pattern of criminalizing uncomfortable opinions.

Good morning!
The secret of democracy lies in institutional lies.
Como es muy largo te pongo respuesta de IA:
¡Buena pregunta! Si lo miras fríamente, hay varios ámbitos en los que la política de EEUU da a Marruecos algunas “ventajas” frente a España (o, más bien, frente a la UE, de la que España forma parte):
1. Política y estatus
• #Sáhara Occidental. Washington no solo reconoció en 2020 la soberanía marroquí sobre el Sáhara; en 2025 volvió a reafirmarlo y a pedir que la propuesta de autonomía marroquí sea la base “única” de negociación. Eso es un espaldarazo diplomático muy significativo a Rabat. 
• Aliado principal no-OTAN. Marruecos tiene desde 2004 la designación de “Major Non-NATO Ally”, que facilita cooperación militar y transferencias de defensa. 
2. Defensa y seguridad
• Ventas/modernización de armamento. EEUU ha aprobado o notificado ventas y mejoras relevantes a Marruecos (F-16 a estándar Viper, misiles AMRAAM, bombas SDB, Stinger, etc.). Esto potencia la interoperabilidad con EEUU y la superioridad regional de Rabat. 
3. Comercio y aranceles
• TLC bilateral con Marruecos. EEUU y Marruecos tienen un Tratado de Libre Comercio desde 2006; la mayoría de los bienes marroquíes entra en EEUU libres de aranceles, lo que puede favorecer a exportadores marroquíes frente a competidores españoles. 
• España negocia vía la UE. No existe TLC UE-EEUU; además, el clima arancelario actual entre Washington y la UE es tenso (tarifa “base” del 10% y discusiones sobre acuerdos), lo que puede restar competitividad a exportaciones españolas respecto a marroquíes cubiertas por el TLC. 
Cómo resumirlo
• La “ventaja” marroquí más clara frente a España/UE viene por (a) el respaldo estadounidense a la posición de Rabat sobre el Sáhara y (b) el marco específico de defensa/comercio (MNNA + TLC) que Marruecos sí tiene y España no (porque España se integra en OTAN/UE, sin TLC propio con EEUU). 
And it's really good, totally open source and without proprietary "secure elements."
It uses a kind of multi-signature to protect the seed, which they call a virtual secure element.
Una de geopolítica.
EE. UU. beneficia a Marruecos en detrimento de España porque le interesa una España débil; el miedo de EE. UU. y del mundo anglosajón siempre ha sido —y será— que se refunde la Hispanidad.
Ahora mismo tenemos a Hispanoamérica sometida a los intereses del mundo anglosajón y hecha trizas; y, por otra parte, a España en uno de sus peores momentos de la historia, a todos los niveles, tanto económicos como sociales.
Por desgracia, ningún político, ni de España ni de Hispanoamérica, está por la labor, y todos olvidan que el español es el segundo idioma más hablado del mundo por hablantes nativos —después del chino mandarín—, y tener un idioma común es comercio y prosperidad.
Los pueblos hispanos deberíamos plantearnos la refundación de la Hispanidad, pero desde abajo: desde Bitcoin, desde la libertad y sin el sometimiento de ningún gobierno.

Bull Bitocoin wallet ark integration in progress 😲
https://blossom.primal.net/68474fc1e139c3a1bcdf848141e82cc4a7c0cd7e6c58ee4fd3ae586f7c9ef587.mp4
For a long time, I haven't been able to recommend a wallet for everything and everyone. Wallets like Aqua may be similar, but I'm not going to recommend a wallet that promotes stable coins; it's a matter of principle.
However, Bull Bitcoin Wallet has it all, and it's only Bitcoin. With the integration of ARK, many of Bitcoin's entry and scalability problems are solved. In the medium term, it will no longer be necessary to use Liquid, although we will have to see the fee model applied by ARK's ASP and privacy issues.
In short, with this wallet, you don't need anything else. One downside is that it could be integrated with more hardware wallets such as Jade.
In my life, I only apply things that work and follow the scientific method. If they don't work, I change them.
For faith, I already have God.
Hahaha, okay, I agree with you there 😂
It's what doctors say, it's what economists say, it's what they say at university...
Have you tried it? Did it work for you? Or did the opposite happen?
Don't trust, verify.
And which side was samourai on, telling lies about other technologies:
- telling lies about joinmarket
- telling lies about wasabi
- telling lies about lightning network
- telling lies about nostr.
Tell me, which side were they on?
They criticized everyone and were scammers because they sold a zerolink coordinator that was never zerolink.
It's your problem that you're lazy.
There are also woke people among libertarians; the idea of open borders is a fallacy.
• Hans-Hermann Hoppe:
“In a natural order there is no such thing as ‘freedom of migration’… Wherever a person moves, he moves into someone’s private property.”
• Murray N. Rothbard (as cited by Hoppe):
“If every piece of land… were owned, no immigrant could enter unless invited by a property owner.”
• Mises Institute:
“Open borders are an assault on private property.” (meaning that admission/exclusion should follow the rights of owners, not the state).
• Academic summary:
“The private ownership of all streets would solve the problem… ‘free immigration’ becomes the right of owners to invite or not.”
I have always been a big supporter of Joinmarket; you can look up my posts.
Good morning!
Who is going to use Ashigaru, which is a flawed coinjoin protocol that charges exorbitant fees, when you can use Wabisabi at virtually no cost? At most, you'll pay 10,000 sats for the decomposition, which is really a way of financing the coordinator, but compare that to Ashigaru's 5% fee.
To all those idiots trying to ban knots, there is an option in the latest version that makes it detected as core and not knots. The option is:

Communist groups have always been financed by Jews, and this has been the case since the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in 1917. 🤷♂️
It was about time someone well-known in the community said it. I said it from day one: that idiot Trump was anything but a Bitcoin supporter, and he would use Bitcoin to his advantage in this case—propaganda to establish his financing system through stablecoins.
Good morning!

Good morning!
A node behind Tor is just as accessible by nodes behind Tor. 66.98% of nodes are behind Tor, so I don't agree with that argument.
In fact, all nodes should be behind Tor. It's dangerous to reveal that you run a node to certain governments.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the way forward. Bitcoin as a store of value is worthless.
Sell when you make a profit by going through KYC?
Bitcoin should be used as a store of value and as money so that you can spend it without state intervention.
It is even more important that it be used as money than as a store of value, and today, with the tools we have, it can easily be used as money.
Protesting is useless. The most effective thing to do is to cause bank runs by withdrawing money from the bank, or indefinite strikes, or both, but the NPC doesn't have the courage to do that.
There are lots of protests, but when it comes to putting their livelihoods on the line, they're all a bunch of cowards.

"Bluesky and Dreamwidth blocked all Mississippi users from using their services because Mississippi’s oppressive age verification mandate makes it impossible for smaller platforms to comply."
One of my three rules in life:
- You can deceive others if you wish, but you cannot deceive yourself.
Deceiving yourself is like cheating at solitaire; it is one of the most foolish things you can do, and it causes you harm.
You always divert attention from all the crimes you commit and play the victim.
What do we do with the terrorists of the state of Israel who have committed genocide on a large scale? You haven't answered that question yet.
Let's stop with the crude and childish lies, please.
Now you want to deny that knots is already practically 25% of the network?
How sad this all is.
And what about the terrorists of the state of Israel?

In my life, I have never heard of or used stablecoins to obtain bitcoin.
Have you used robosats or lnp2pbot?
Si te digo la verdad no me complico mucho, primal, pero no por nada en especial, simplemente porque funciona y es simple.
How can I trust Bitcoiners who don't even realize the US's stablecoin ploy?
It's so easy.
John buys USDT > Tether those dollars Invests in US bonds and earns a return > US finances itself
John gets a worthless currency and inflation in return, a lose-lose situation for John.
The Trump administration is only using Bitcoin to promote itself, making you believe it's pro-Bitcoin, but they simply have to shoehorn that narrative in to make stablecoins the standard because they've found the goose that lays the golden eggs to finance themselves.
What better way than to extend the use of the dollar to every corner of the world? Seriously, you guys are delusional.
There are even Bitcoiners who are in favor of stablecoins, which are useful, but fucking retarded, why do you want a stablecoin when you have Lightning and Bitcoin is at a minimum in terms of volatility?
Developers generally tend to have little knowledge of computer architecture and security.
Obviously not all of them, but I have many years of experience working in the sector and I have seen horrible things that would make the baby Jesus cry 😂 .
