trustless and permissionless, when done properly

'bitcoin is for enemies' just has a better ring to it

never ran my own email server, but id assume keeping track of 12 or 24 words is trivial compared.

the only reason i miss twatter, is dunking on people like this.

i used to think the world was round. /s

came out ahead?

what timeline where you in bro.

on some real shit tho, hasnt he been in btc for a bit?

to be devils advocate, as of right now, alot of the out of the box node stacks DO allow you to dictate CORE/KNOTS.

doesnt take away from your very valid point regarding centralizing factors when it comes to node software

as did you sir,

always a hurt piece when you lose to the only person who scored higher in the week. but that against average win or loss helps there.

gg @Public_N_M_E

being here for taproot and seeing how that was pandered as 'foolproof' to an extent, and i understand alot of good came from taproot, esp regardling LN, but the unforeseen outcome that came with it wasnt great.

the whole core/citrea stuff just stinks, its hard to have an unbiased opinion when it SEEMS like a company or entity is pushing for changes that would benefit them, THEN providing why it COULD be good for the network.

as someone who came right at the blocksize wars, the situation of a company wanting to try and make changes just still doesnt sit well. yes i know consensus policy vs mempool policy but still relatively smell the same. bad.

bitcoin at its current state, cant really scale to the WORLD money, not without sacrificing some of the principals of the corn. so bitcoin WILL have to evolve to meet that goal.

im too much of a left bell curve guy to have an educated opinion, my stance why not leave default where it is now, but give the ones who want it, an option to increase what their node accepts. i think thats where block propagation problems start. idk

slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

took advantage of ATH in fiat terms to use bitrefill and finally get into FPV drones. ive wanted to for YEARS, but decided to hodl and stack until now.

what good is fuck you money, if you never say fuck you?

i just started out with drones so was checking it out and saw that ¯_(ツ)_/¯

token owner? are they tokenizing buildings?

im gonna be that guy. 'i dont like the controversy in Bitcoin'

lets have a poll to continue it.....sounds like you may like the controversy "what will YOU do?'

educate yourself. make a decision as a node runner.

fuck you money requires responsibility.

it served a purpose, moving money when authorities wrongly prevented traditional means, a key strength of bitcoin.

it took me 3 'interactions' before being to grasp it. most people dont understand money in the 'first world' it taken for granted SO MUCH. even tho the truckers have this temporary life impact due to bitcoin, its a means to an end for them.

just be one of the 'interaction' for people.

gradually then suddenly

is anyone else on android and not having issues with slow load, force closes etc?

side note, the sleeper app is terrible on android, anyone using iOS?

im coming for it.

i believe paynyms are bip 47 and silent payments are bip 325?

good write-up

criminally underused tech.

wait it thought you said it was against average, wouldnt second higher scorer also get 2 wins for that week

interesting

big fan of IDP instead of defense teams.
