All views are my own. Tech finance manager, Bitcoin believer.
GM! You can just upgrade to Core v30 to get a much faster and more secure node, and set `-datacarrier=80`if that floats your boat image
Bitcoin is so different from everything else in your life that you just need to learn as much as you can from first principles. Shallow comparisons to other things you are already comfortable with are usually misguided and flawed at best, and more often just 100% wrong. Bitcoin survives as a decentralized and distributed system by its big picture game theory and incentive alignment where adversarial actors who cannot trust each other independently can still trust the protocol. Go to a BitDevs. Stop listening to nontechnical purchasers. If you can’t or won’t read Mastering Bitcoin, please at least listen to old Andreas videos. He was highly technical and understood both the code and the game theory. Almost no one else in the space has had such a nuanced and deep understanding of both sides. Without both you end up with BCash or Solana.
Bitcoin is what the economic majority decides it is. An important lesson of the blocksize wars is that raw node count doesn’t matter. The economic weight behind those nodes does.
Yet another long weekend where I have to wait 4+ days for a wire to go through because banks are dogshit, but normies tell me Bitcoin is too slow. LMAO
GM! The Fed has never been independent and has always politicized. The only real option is to disband the whole institution. Otherwise such unimaginable power will always eventually be abused. The right answer is to realize no tiny group of people (mostly unelected to boot) should have that power. Voting harder is for retards.
If you are selling Bitcoin to cover an MSTR margin call then you are a retarded degenerate and deserve it. Thanks for the cheaper sats. Stay humble and stack sats.
