Imagine the hammer that would’ve been dropped on Satoshi by the government if he wasn’t able to remain completely anonymous.

Wouldn’t be surprised if samurai is the first of many privacy oriented softwares to be shut down. I’d bet that non-KYC exchanges are next.

The treasury department is guilty of conspiracy to commit money laundering because they issue dollar bills that are used by criminals without KYC/AML.

I still cringe every time a new person comes on nostr who clearly isn’t a bitcoiner and the first responses are “set up your wallet so we can send you bitcoin”. Oh well, live and let live.

Tip for all the European plebs who just got access to strike - when you’re withdrawing to cold storage, always do the free 24 hour withdrawal. It does take a while but I’ve never had to actually wait 24 hours.

Why can’t someone set up a system that creates several independent mining pools, with each pool capped at a certain hashrate. Once the limit for one pool has been reached, a new independent, competing pool is created. Ideally the cap would be enough hashrate to make it somewhat competitive but not enough to create centralization of hash power. Obviously capping the hashrate means finding fewer blocks than the large pools, but it also means that the individual miners receive a bigger reward when blocks are found. Is this a thing already? Is it even possible/economically feasible? If this happened and those contributing hash power to these medium sized pools started earning more than those in bigger pools, wouldn’t it incentivize those contributing to large pools to switch over to these medium pools?
