Looking at the merkle branches that mining pools send to miners as part of stratum jobs, it's clear that the BTCcom pool, Binance pool, Poolin, EMC...

Won't a bunch of hash rate go offline after the halving until the price reaches a certain level because miners will be unprofitable at the current price? Would be nice to have data based on current energy prices.

Most people consider privacy and censorship resistance as extremely overrated until one day when the companies and governments they trusted stab them in the back. Brazil has fallen. Which nation is next?

We have only one chance to get it right. We need to continue to upgrade Bitcoin and ensure it scales to every human on the planet. We cannot have custodians and big corporations take control over Bitcoin. They tried it once in 2017 and failed and we have to make sure they keep failing.

Good morning! Bitcoin isn't a store of value or digital gold to hold till death. It's p2p cash that is meant to be spent just like fiat.

If you're learning to write code in 2024, learn Go. That's all you'll ever need. You could try another language like Rust once you get good at Go but Go is so good that you don't need anything else.

So the war lasted for less than a day and some of you sold your corn. Your exchange probably didn't even settle your fiat yet.

If you're competing against fiat, you need the best set of tools at your disposal. There is simply no way Bitcoin can compete against fiat today unless we keep building out our L2s while simultaneously improving L1 that helps build out better L2s. The only way we can compete is with custodial solutions, at that point I'd just use fiat.

Good afternoon. Bitcoin we use today was built by software engineers who know what they are doing. People who believe in ossification have no idea what they are talking about. No, Bitcoin today is not good enough to be money. Not even close.

If you're a core dev and you're funded by Wall St, it is totally ok. Big corporations funding devs does not mean bad things will happen to Bitcoin.

You have to remember core devs and or anybody working on open source would love to work for more money. These people are so smart that they could go work at FAANG and make $300k/annum but they are not. Just because they are not, doesn't mean they don't want the money. Funding for open source devs is hard to come by, help them out as much as you can.
