well, a lot of people try to explain—but usually can’t—because Bitcoin isn’t a product you buy or a protocol you “use.” It’s something you experience. And as you said, you can’t explain it to someone new—they have to see it for themselves.
The comparison to Morpheus is actually spot-on. There's no fast track, no elevator pitch that does it justice. Every Bitcoiner goes through those stages: from price obsession, to security paranoia, to hero-worship, to skepticism, to peace, to wild curiosity about aliens and time loops. also I love that you brought in the philosophical and speculative layer. That part of the Bitcoin conversation “what if hashrate is more than just hashpower?” or “what if Bitcoin is a message to humanity?” that truly will make us free after all financialy and own what we have
well that is an easy question, we’ll generate wealth by selling handmade AI-detox retreats, artisan bread, and emotional support NFTs to each other while robots run trillion-dollar hedge funds and write poetry better than our therapists. and make them bitcoin flows
i love this app even though it still have some restrictions on my region hope that it ay be allowed sooner since it give a really great rewards amounts and good deals for stackers
Ah, i can see that treating the state changes like UTXOs tied to ownership via single-use seals really simplifies the coordination problem. It’s kind of elegant how conflict resolution becomes unnecessary because ownership is binary: either you hold the right to update a piece of state, or you don’t. No global state to argue over, just local truth. Feels very in line with Bitcoin’s ethos. i suppose
Really appreciate this write-up a great mix of historical context and modernpreference. The bit about "note pickers" is wild… almost feels like physical mempool sniping. 😅
but still It’s fascinating how free banking enforced reserve discipline through direct competition something stablecoins don’t face in the same way.
I liked Carter’s comparison to money market funds, especially with the emphasis on how different today’s assets and architectures are. The Selgin quote really nails it: maybe instead of forcing neat historical analogies, we need frameworks that reflect how structurally unique stablecoins actually are.
Thanks for sharing yur experience. well, I was curious about Flash Wallet too, and your experience gives a good early picture. The 5% fee via Breez SDK definitely seems steep for small zaps, especially if you're using it for casual tipping on Nostr or SN. Interesting tradeoff with the nodeless setup + Liquid integration though. I agree — having fee info and a bit more transparency inside the wallet would go a long way. Looks promising overall, just needs some polish.
frankly, i have read the whole research and it was interesting enough to dive into the RGB 1.0 concept as it may looks like the most exciting thing happening in Bitcoin-based smart contracts right now. Love the focus on scalability without compromising privacy. cant wait to see its implementation on real-world apps and how beneficial it would be at certain levels. it seems promising, on the other hand i was wondering about, how does RGB 1.0 system ensure data integrity across multiple clients without obviousely the common issue of introducing excessive trust assumptions?
that is not what concerns me at all. what bothers me is that i cannot get the same value as for exchanging fiat for crypto since it is restricted after the law has been signed. you know how frustrating it is to gather faucets or small parts crypto it is gonna take months to get to 20 dollar for instance.
it is true and i do agree they cannot totally ban it or even find who is holding what. but the idea is that they limit the use via restricting any fiat related to btc kind of transaction, i think that is the only way for them to track things down. other than that they got nothing to do.
i dont have any reading to suggest but i do think it is more of an instict to be dad it is just kicks in i see that you are adoptig ew ways to raise your children and that is fantastic i have got a point which is just be there for him/her no matter what we are indeed act like mothers as well but subliminaly if you got mt meaning, hope this may be a great journey and have a lovely tim
now that is intereting. it was as if the sense of awareness kicks in as they add such a cool feature as that as for exemple providing an imaginary context which leave the audience to trace it and understand from the comply.
now i dont know what is interesting in hiring A.I rather than human. well, Banks claim to care about “personal service” while removing all human interaction.
You wait 40 minutes to talk to a chatbot about your missing life savings because it’s “more efficient.” ain that kind of funny actually. and yeah banks be like guys, u made it that far and help us to generate billion dollars now you rest and be hold the innovation.
i think that in someway geimin and chat gpt somehow enhance their service platform t include many free users and to be honest i prefer the free version better than the paid ones since it is not worth to check on it. i believe these modules have succeded in attracting users and neglect the idea of credits and that sort of thing
