digital id seems overt and dystopian but all of us if we have ever logged into a microsoft, apple, google, or meta service even while on a vpn has a digital id.

walked into my local gold/silver shop and asked his ratio of buyers to sellers. he said 99% sellers. people trading in old coins and jewelry. he says occasionally, somebody might buy a couple silver coins, but no one's buying gold

hopefully in a year when "spam" on bitcoin is either more, less or the same, someone admits they were wrong and acknowledges that someone else was correct. then we can all learn the truth in practice through observation

the US dollar is just a debt extinguisher for USD denominated debt. you don't need to worry about when the dollar dies all you need to worry about is when you will become debt free

If mNAV of a company is 1.25 if means an expected growth of the balance sheet of 25% based on current book value. This is pretty tough in a Bitcoin standard unless you have a killer operating business.

we need less feed algorithms and more nostr clients that support lists. it's fine to have an algo for your main follow feed but mostly i have used X and nostr with curated high signal lists

everyone is so pissy about bitcoin core 30. if you simple put datacarriersize=83 in your bitcoin.conf file then your just like bitcoin 29. right?

in light of the proposed patriot act expansion i predict bitcoin to go the way of bittorrent. most of its usage will be deemed illegal but unstoppable to the point where it is just accepted and ignored. bitcoin will always be black market money

bitchat is wild. feels like an old bbs. using a geohash i connected with a random person in my state and we pretended to give each other coordinates to our bunker so we could exchange ammo types. 🚀
