Usury is not “charging interest on a loan.” Usury is profiting from something which produces nothing, without any effort.
Sound familiar?
Bitcoin runs on proof of WORK not ink
A public service announcement from just balances

Welcome to my new Nostr home!
Bitcoiner because:
'False balances are an abomination to the Lord' - Proverbs 11
RUN A NODE - I run 2 Knots nodes
#RunKnots
it's quite simple really
if it ain't broke, don't fix it
running bitcoin
via knots
We have been attacked
and will continue to be attacked
Plotting against bitcoin goes on relentlessly
Nothing serious just the next episode
The antidote NOW is #RunKnots
Do not update core
Running a node to defend the network is more effective than voting - Censorship ends with nodes running decentralized software.
Don't listen to those 'insiders' who try to play down what we have here
Just Use Bitcoin Standard Software and ignore the noise
#RunKnots 

Judging by this post, one would have to assume that core has lost the plot.
All they had to do was keep it rolling.
They dropped the ball - in exchange for fiat?! Thankfully we have others making the software as it was intended, doing the job no other blockchain can. Node runners are voting on this by moving to a foundation that understands what this is
#RunKnots 

'Spoke with someone who started a daily DCA into bitcoin recently.
"I was sitting there waiting for the right time to get in. Looking for a dip or an influx of cash to make a sizable buy and eventually I looked up and six moths went by. So I decided to just start buying a little every day."
This is the right mentality. Get off zero.
Too many people wait for an "opportune time" to get into bitcoin and miss out on massive runs. Bitcoin is a game of "time in the market" not "timing the market". If you miss the best 10-15 days of bitcoin performance in a year you'll miss out on most of the purchasing power increases.
Do you think there was an "opportune time" to adopt the internet when it came out?
Was there a "best" time to adopt gun powder when it hit the market?
Did you have an advantage if you waited a few cycles to take advantage of electricity?
No. In every case, the most opportune time to adopt these technologies was "as soon as humanly possible".
Bitcoin is no different. The best time to adopt better money is as soon as possible.'

Thought I'd share a short instructional tutorial on How to Run Spam Filters in Bitcoin Core
Enjoy!
TY Shiny 

I don't know why people waste time posting on X
Anything i put on there usually lands in the "Show Possible Spam" section
The people who bought Twitter are scavengers
They bought it to shut down the truth
Bitcoin going from strength to strength
Mainstream media steering well clear of any mention of it
Censorship works
Bitcoin fixes the warmongering
Buy it
There is a renewed fight going on for the soul of this miracle of tech. We have been here before. Now it is time for node runners of today to step up
We are not broadcasting spam on the best money network ever.
We will pull the plug on those pushing this
Do not upgrade current systems
Block this change
#RunKnots
Node runners have bitcoin's back
They have no incentive to run apart from
securing the decentralized alternative to central banking
That ensures their conviction to fight spam
They will move wherever the fight takes them
Spam doesn't belong on this blockchain
#RunningKnots
Thankfully, node runners do not have to use software that spams the network. Those wanting the continued success of the network will never support this.
My take: Let's continue to deprecate core
core--
Never forget
The enemies of this network have endless resources to burn
They don't want to lose that
They force behaviors
They could 'buy' core devs
Vigilance is ALWAYS necessary 

Bitcoin will always wright itself
The best money on the planet
will remain exactly that
Decentralization guarantees the truth
It will be defended
Confirmed: Bitcoin Core going Rogue
Do not update - Find another implementation


The State of New Hampshire has done it
First to pass a Bitcoin reserve bill into Law
This shot is being heard around the world


It was time to change tact
The whole world running the same implementation code is too much of a honeypot for those wanting to manipulate
Let's all remember:
We run an anti-centralization solution
#BitcoinKnots
Tried to make an account on Tik Tok
They say you can use an email address
I did
My account was blocked immediately
So much for a censorship free platform
Jack selling Twitter was the biggest mistake in the history of freedom
