DeFlock the world #nostr

USD is proof of war

Tribalism is a sad state of affairs. People in cryptography, bitcoin, xmr, zano etc and precious metals would rather fight instead of work together. We have a state putting surveillance cameras on every street corner. They bomb women and children everyday all while treating us like animals in a tax farm to fund said bombing. We have thr people, ability and tools. Do not squander this opportunity. #nostr #grownostr #bitcoin #monero #privacy

Finally decided to take a break from X. The bitcoin talk has gotten so bad that I just couldn't do it anymore. #nostr only for awhile.

Nostr is much more lade back compared to X.

BIP 110 is just religious zealots obsessed with purity. Bitcoin isn't pure. Its has always been a grimy black market money. Literally created by a person nobody in the world knows, during the great financial crisis, in the far most cypherpunk corner of the internet. #nostr #bitcoin

Do your country a favor. Build anti flock and anti surveillance clubs. Go out, have fun!

One of the best podcast episodes I've listened too. I recommend everyone check it out.

Bitcoin: Climate Villain Or Solution with Daniel Batten

Daniel Batten, climate tech investor, ESG analyst, and co-founder of CH4 Capital, challenges the widespread perception that Bitcoin mining is an en...

Bitcoin remains the dominant crypto on darknet markets powering 98% of transactions due to liquidity. In 2024, DNMs saw $2B in BTC inflows. 2025 estimates near $2.6B. Markets resilient despite takedowns. https://www.chainalysis.com/blog/crypto-drug-sales-darknet-markets-2026/

As long as block space has any marginal cost below what some people are willing to pay for non-monetary uses, some amount of spam will find its way in. Consensus rules can raise the friction on specific techniques, but they can't remove the underlying incentive. #bitcoin

No real anarcho capitalist supports bip 110. 1. Coercive rule imposition: Even though it's a soft fork, it relies on nodes enforcing new validity rules that make previously valid (and paid-for) constructions invalid. This is collective action redefining what counts as legitimate use of the protocol, rather than pure market discipline. 2. Changing the rules after the fact: People built businesses, collections, and protocols on top of Taproot's data-carrying capabilities. Using protocol changes to restrict that retroactively (or prospectively during the window) feels like ex post facto interference. 3. Precedent for control: Once you accept using consensus to "protect" Bitcoin from disfavored uses, the door opens to future interventions justified by the greater good or true purpose. Ancap theory is deeply skeptical of any mechanism that lets a subset of participants dictate terms to others via enforced rules. This goes beyond the existing block weight limit + fee market. It is an attempt to dictate the character of block space usage, to declare certain paid transactions illegitimate at the protocol level.

HB bip 110 was never about spam. Luke will forever be a scam.

Needed now more than ever. Have fun learning ashigaru! Dont feel intimidated, you need good bitcoin privacy! #gn #nostr #bitcoin #privacy

How do I make coinjoins on the Ashigaru application?

The tourists, the suits and the podcasters must be ousted from Bitcoin for it's survival.

Alot of people in monero are just bad actors.

Bitcoin tribalism must die if Bitcoin is to keep growing and winning in the long run. The belief that one cryptocurrency must crush all others is not only unrealistic. It actively slows adoption and discourages honest evaluation of different tools. Bitcoin can and should coexist with other cryptos. This diversity is healthy. It gives users genuine options instead of forcing everyone into the same set of compromises. Bitcoin has earned its position as the leading store of value and a powerful instrument for financial sovereignty. Its unmatched security model, decentralization, and proven network effects make it the hardest asset to manipulate or censor at scale. The Lightning Network has also made it practical as a medium of exchange for faster, lower cost payments. These strengths exist because of deliberate design choices. Bitcoin's transparent and publicly verifiable blockchain prioritizes auditability, supply transparency, and broad verifiability over transactional privacy. As a result, it will likely never match the default level of on chain privacy and fungibility that Monero achieves through ring signatures, stealth addresses, and other cryptography focused on privacy. That is not a flaw in Bitcoin. It is a conscious choice in priorities. Monero was built specifically for exactly the opposite priority: strong, default financial privacy and true fungibility. For use cases where shielding transaction details from surveillance matters most, whether protecting personal savings, donations, or everyday spending, it is currently the more capable tool. There is no requirement that Bitcoin must do everything perfectly. Different projects solve different problems. The mature approach is specialization rather than tribal loyalty tests. Users benefit when they can choose the right instrument for the specific job instead of being pressured to defend one coin as superior in every dimension. Bitcoin excels where security, liquidity, and institutional level soundness matter most. Monero excels where privacy cannot be compromised. Both can thrive without one having to kill the other. Healthy competition and clear assessment of their respective strengths will serve the ecosystem far better than purity tests and echo chambers ever could. #bitcoin #monero #btc #xmr #crypto #privacy #ungovernable #nost #gn

For a long time, we stuck our hands out to come together for peace and prosperity. In the end the third world bit it and tried to behead us. NO MORE!!
