As somebody who lives in Bedfordshire, the only thing that really makes people switch on about Bitcoin is talking about what Peter is doing with Real Bedford, cheatcode & his podcast. I've been guilty of taking shots at him as well (to be fair he knows he deserved it around covid), but if you have capital, what the fuck are you doing to grow the network?

The state will give us no choice but to use Bitcoin to transact.

Wherever fiat wins, loses.

Fees down and pumps coming, slave systems are dying.

Good morning 🙂 feed the new system

I'd love to see a ticker of how long it would approximately take of all of the hashrate mining bitcoin to correctly guess a private key.

Bitcoin requires no permission or authorisation. Do not submit.

I will make my children's children lucky. I was not.

Outsourcing "custody" is relying on somebody else, probably somebody you don't know, to keep a secret you don't know yourself and storing your value in that secret.

Break the rules if you think the game is rigged, just don't tell the ref you're doing it...

Just don't be American.

It's really disturbing when developers are getting arrested for building free and open-source software.

I see fud in my feed.

I think censorship is ok in some circumstances. Like, rather than your young kids being exposed to trannies dancing about in thongs for example. I think most people would agree? Some people get touchy like it's the thin end of a wedge of totalitarianism when talking about nodes censoring traffic that annoys them and directly affects their ability to transact and use bitcoin. My view is you can't / shouldn't stop people doing what they want works both ways. If you're in the minority on an issue and how you act on it affects the majority negatively, sometimes it's tough shit & gfy when you get put in your place.

Transaction fees are always being driven to zero by miners, no matter what we throw at bitcoin in any short or sustained length of time because... Time is infinite; so block space is infinite, not scarce, stupid. This was also true with smaller blocks.

You are crazy enough to try.

It's all about GMT anyway

How tf am I supposed to sleep

Bitcoin is essential
