You know how we all talk about trojan horsing with bitcoin. I'm starting to get a creeping feeling that @npub15xqg...9rv7 (and Trump, David Sacks, etc...) trojan horsed bitcoiners instead. The first meeting she chaired yesterday on digital assets was just about stablecoins (aka psuedo-cbdc). They didn't talk about bitcoin, it wasn't really mentioned in any meaningful way. Seems like they got us all excited about possibilities like a bitcoin strategic reserve, de minimus tax exemption, etc... to get votes and massive donations. But all we're going to get are a bunch of shitcoin etfs, more pump/dumps (aka 'friendly' regulation), and essentially a government wet dream panopticon CBDC (disguised as "NOT A CBDC, BUT PRIVATE STABLECOINS, WE PROMISE") Hopefully I'm wrong, but I don't like the direction things are going thus far. @ODELL @less @Lawrence Lepard @TFTC

Frankly, Lummis has always been honest about her campaign against #Bitcoin. From the very beginning she‘s been talking about government regulation, such as taxation (above certain amounts) and track and trace and even the government buying #Bitcoin with our money (SBR) to control it. #Bitcoin is a peer to peer electronic cash system separate from any government. I’m not sure why the ambiguity?
