“I don’t believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can’t take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can’t stop.” – F.A. Hayek 1984
How Primal trending works 

My personal favorite session arrived!!! 

When building a permissioned network like Libra on top of permissioned system like fiat money, it failed because the permissioned system doesn’t allow you to build on top of it. Now you choose to build a permissioned network on top of the permissionless network like bitcoin and lightning so no one can stop you from building on top of it, it will still fail because no one will use it.

Here’s my rust implementation about calculating the last checksum word by providing the first 11 or 23 seed phrase words. It was based on a fun experiment I did a while ago by throwing dice to generate seed phrases. The nice thing about rust is I can easily bring it to mobile apps.

Time is money because time is scarce,
ergo money is scarce.
Fiat currency is not scarce but bitcoin is scarce, ergo bitcoin is money.
Every dollar you swap into bitcoin is a protest.
Every dollar we keep inside the circular economy is a protest.
Stress test is good. Luckily there’s no need for a second bitcoin civil war this time, because lightning network is no longer vaporware.

You redirected ETH’s shitcoin “security budget” to #bitcoin, and convinced the biggest exchange in the world to...
I was wrong, Binance will add lightning network support due to high on-chain fees. Guys, please continue to keep the mempool full, otherwise these shitcoins casinos have zero motivations to integrate LN, all they care is about profit, unless on-chain fees start to eat up your profit. Coinbase, next is your turn!

To prevent a similar recurrence in the future, our fees have been adjusted. We will continue to monitor on-chain activity and adjust accordingly if...
With nostr becomes phenomenal in recent months, I wonder why I still don’t see any new exchanges start supporting lightning network integration.
Here’s some clue I found:
Binance invested 500m into Twitter in last year November, which makes them the 4th largest shareholder among 19 investors. No wonder CZ is not interested in nostr or any other alternative social media.
Binance probably will not add lightning network support in near future.
But still, I believe nostr is here to stay regardless how little investors are interested in this, the exact same happened during early days of bitcoin.
CVDD(Cumulative Value Coin Days Destroyed) is now my favorite technical indicator besides 200 WMA. Historically, bitcoin price never dipped below CVDD. Let’s see if it breaks in the future. 🤓
