I hate society. I love citizenry. Odi et amo.

Happy Juneteenth everyone!

Every aspect of Bitcoin is a giant grift. Luke Dashjr makes 750k/year running a mining operation but asks for donations from retards he convinces he is saving from Core’s malice. This is perhaps slightly less or more tawdry than Core, who are helping their allies fleece venture capital funds building useless “enhancements” to Bitcoin which will never see widespread use. Luke is more predatory because he is fleecing well-meaning people with far less money, but perhaps better because he is fleecing retards who weren’t ever going to be critical for Bitcoin’s future. Core and their allies are fleecing people with more money but burnt through most of the investment capital and goodwill of people that were actually willing to commit serious capital towards advancing Bitcoin as a cause. I’d say between the two the scale of the crimes of the Core/LN crowd are much greater. For its “developers” Bitcoin is just a means for everyone to find an audience of gullible patrons to separate from their wealth.
