I’ve definitely gotten some pushback for my take on BIP-444.
But I still haven’t gotten any answers to two basic questions:
1. Who will monitor the blockchain?
2. Who decides when action is needed?
Fresh TWiB! Last week, I asked if the US government shutdown was impacting Bitcoin. Boy did I get my answer! Also thought on BIP-444, the supposed whale selling, and more. Enjoy! 🍻

GM. Stormy sunrise on the farm.
I always hate leaving the homestead during a big storm. Anyone else feel that way?
Ok, WTF Is going on with BIP-444? Is this a prank?
BIP-444 proposes removing entire blocks if there is toxic content immediately, but who decides what is toxic content?
How do people post video on Nostr? I tried both Zap.Stream for uploading a video, and nostr.build. Both puked in ugly ways.
Is there another service I am missing that works?
I watched the FOMC meeting so you don’t have to. And it’s rate cuts, but with a gotcha.
Plus the two companies working on a Bitcoin line of credit and why I think they sound terrific, and a lot more!

Back from a road trip hiatus it’s a fully loaded episode. I think I make the meta case in this episode why NOT owning bitcoin is the biggest risk.
Enjoy! 🍻

Hello from Texas LinuxFest in Austin. 👋
Fresh TWiB! And maybe the last one for a couple of weeks. I think an important one too, especially if you’ve been wondering why bitcoin didn’t pump after the rate cut. And I cover that new PR to core that walks back some configuration deprecation.
Don’t miss this one!

Fresh TWiB: Why I think a rate cut was a lock and it’s not because of the jobs revision. That’s a smoke screen. Also, why this cut Isn’t a ripper for the price, yet.

When you imagine living on a farm, you probably picture chickens , milking cows, goats eating things…
But I’m learning the reality is more like dealing with waste, fighting pond Duckweed, and finding weirdos on the property with the drone …
