Good news if true. Bitcoin is for everyone. This will ensure it will not be a polarizing political issue in the US.

This would be a good thing to bet on. I'm guessing she will not be there.

reply

Yeah I'm kinda skeptical too. On the other hand, her surest way to victory is to court special interest voters who are alienated by Democrats but don't particularly care for Trump. Even if the greens are angry about her courting Bitcoin, they sure as hell aren't voting for Trump

reply

Talk to @ek. He has that oracle territory

reply

Given the current administration’s track record I doubt this is anything other than pandering to get votes. To be fair that is probably what Trump is doing too. Though I think there is an ever so slightly smaller chance of this with him.

reply

Trump jumped on the crypto wagon a while ago when he was selling NFT.

reply

Isn't doing things that gets you votes expected in a system where candidates are elected based on votes?

reply

Oh for sure. My point was not to get too excited because I doubt there will actually be follow through on any promises made.

reply

Both of them are jumping on the bitcoin bandwagon.
Who will be better for bitcoin?

reply

Neither

reply

You think both are trying to use the system and will dump them after the election?
False promises?

reply

Ha! They are politicians. They will say anything. Its how it works. It doesn't even matter if they mean it. Winds change, they change.

reply

Very true.
Too bad they cant be held accountable.
Maybe we need shorter terms?

reply

Here's an idea. We don't need them at all. Govern yourself.

reply

hhhmm...
America is not ready for that radical of an idea.

reply

Here's the deal. Slavery was abolished largely due to the work of abolitionists. We have far to many pragmatists that lose all credibility due to compromise. I'm all for seeing something get better gradually but I will never stop advocating for abolishing the state. Its evil. It enslaves the world and is responsible for more death and destruction than any other entity ever devised by man.

So yeah, America isn't ready. Its still evil and should be abolished.

Likely it will just slowly crumble. We must build alternate systems that obsolete it. Bitcoin is the keystone of this. Technology is the key to evolving a society and bitcoin is the only thing I see that could do it. It will take generations but I believe it will happen.

Kamala is more similar to Elizabeth Warren: bitcoin mining causes climate change ergo they need to be taxed 30 percent for electricity consumption

reply

She will have to change her opinion if she wants their support.
You know as well as I that politicians can change their minds at the drop of a hat.

reply

This means that Warren is officially sidelined

reply

Warren's influence is fading IMO.

Conference starts July 25

Olympics start on July 26

You got me checking Polymarket now for things like this
😂

reply

Great site even though it’s built on polygon which is layer 2 for ETH

reply

Well that's sure eye opening. I think that would be great if the Secret Service can do their job. That would be a Titanic event and target for the shitheads.

reply

It's all bull shit. Zero trust with her

reply

She can show up and embarrass herself and her campaign during her first weekend as a candidate

Plus she will be overshadowed by Trump and RFK. I guess how of fairness they had to invite her.
Then again it’s not about fairness. At least Trump and RFK have talked about bitcoin. RFK has bitcoin in his portfolio

reply

Out of fairness…

reply

That wasn’t on my bingo card.

Public Goods: These are things everyone can use, like a beautiful sunset or a radio broadcast. When you enjoy them, it doesn’t stop others from doing the same.
Free Rider Problem: People often don’t want to pay for public goods because they’ll benefit anyway. Imagine not paying for a radio program – you can still listen!
Solutions: Entrepreneurs get creative. They mix good things (like the radio program) with less desirable things (like ads) to fund public goods.
Punishment: Sometimes, we need rules. In communities, if everyone shirks their duties (like not hunting), there won’t be enough food. So, punishment encourages cooperation.
Remember, public goods challenge our usual thinking, but we find ways to make them work! 🌟

reply

Looking forward to her take on CTV, going to be a banger I'm sure

reply

They need us. They affinity scam us. Tick tock next block

reply

Would love to see a debate up there! Kamala may be pro-bitcoin too. Who knows!

reply

Lol

reply

Better for the attendees that she is not showing up

Already a security hassle with Trump
