The cost of money is however much it costs to secure the Bitcoin network. Never forget that fact. This bond market crap is just that, it's crap.

I'm not sure which app is slower, X or Primal. Maybe I need to clear a cache or something, it can't be that both of them are this bricked.

Whether the CC exploit was an inside job, or if it was just a bug found by a frontier AI - the lesson this teaches is basically the same. Entropy is at the foundation of everything, and if it can be cracked it will be cracked. These lessons in Bitcoin are like landmines. Not your keys not your coins (MTGOX et al) Not your entropy, not your key - ehhhh maybe.

What planet is this where an announcement that BlackRock is moving in to fund Bitcoin development AT THE SAME TIME THAT Bitcoin Core is employing sly and foxy politics to move development towards what "network participants are doing" (spamming the chain) Again, is this Saturn? The planet of long term hardships & lessons. Honestly I'm glad BIP110 is where it's at today. The immune system still works on the only chance we humans have to separate money from State.

The thing that attracted me to Bitcoin was my bullshit detector. I followed the truth, which is found many different ways. That same thing lead me to running Bitcoin Knots, and signalling BIP110.

@npub1sg6p...f63m @npub1ds3h...hzcn it's high time you added Bitcoin payments to Square Online stores. I'm not sure why this hasn't been added as a feature yet, but when I go in the Weebly settings for my Square acct - there's still no option for Bitcoin payments.

Knots and the one hundred and tenth Bitcoin improvement proposal take Bitcoin down to first principles. The decentralization, and security arguments I have encountered fail the smell test. They occur 2 or 3 levels above what the root problems are with the Bitcoin network today. Completely blowing out datacarriersize because things like slip stream exist - well slip stream exists because of cheap fiat credit enabled by $MARA pub co status & the incentives that are derived from large pubco miners. If pubco miners were exposed 100% to the free market, their incentives would be forced to align with low time preference & long term health of the Bitcoin network.

Should I start a Bitcoing Treasury Company meetup? People who own Bitcoin treasury company stocks can talk about their stock portfolios.
