I think you're thinking of Microstrategy. Similar name but different software.
There's also this company called Microsoft you may have heard about.
I hear their software is kinda popular.
"I was quite skeptical of Nostr at first. So I spent 1 full year working on it and becoming a leading expert on it. I now think it actually has merit."
Either you're nuts or you like story-telling. Thanks for the overview anyway.
Not better than ever. If you look up Neanderthal teeth, they're much healthier than middle age or industrial age humans. Blame starchy cereals and sugar for the change. Modern debtal care is just helping to return to a normal state.
In the coinbase transaction output. Amount = fees + block subsidy.
The concept of a trading day for something that runs 24/7 across the globe is sketchy at best.
Well, your opening post was adamant about "China's influence" and the need for Congress to regulate. So..you weren't "just sharing". You were advocating. For regulation that could increase miner oversight by authorities and negatively affect hashrate and the network security.
Perhaps you're just an "ordinary reader". Then again, I would expect a spook to say just that.
They can't steal bitcoin. That's nonsense. They could stop selling to US companies, it would have no effect on the bitcoin network, but that would cut them from their main customers. A losing proposition for them and for US miners. Everyone but OP and his shitcoiner journal "columnist" are not ok with the current situation
The article you linked to is an obvious attempt by the US government or US based mining companies to sow FUD about chinese competitve industries. Same as with Huawei or bytedance. The article presents the chinese manufacturers of Asics as security threats. It's propaganda. They couldn't attack the bitcoin network if they wanted to. Also, you can buy an intel Asic...no wait, it's discontinued.
Either you're a spook agitating anti-chinese propaganda or you're a grifter asking for public money to develop US-based Asic manufacturing and to bridge that technology gap with tax money or printer go brrr
You and the article author are obvious government spooks or grifters. You're the trojan horse.
This is outright propaganda. Nobody forces you or anyone to mine with chinese hardware. It just happens to be the most profitable.
"Free" healthcare is not free. It's normally paid for with taxes.
Just as "free" security and "free" roads. They are paid for services. You may argue that obligatory insurance is unfair or unethical but there is no free lunch.
I know enough to tell you that both Tyson and Ali scored below 80, which in theory would indicate borderline retardation.
Then again, how many retards do you know can improvise poems, master rethorics, display world-class charisma while at the same time manage successful careers with multiple businesses. And become political figures that define their time.
That's how useful that test appears to be. Perhaps revisit your assumptions. And dare I say prejudice.
My guess is you don't know many boxers.
You cannot be good at opposition sports that involve tactics, psychology, information processing... with a low IQ.
You're basing your assessment of Mike Tyson's intelligence off his current attitude?? He suffers impact-induced dementia, as you'd expect from a former pro boxer.
Be humble and rational. Becoming a world champion at anything, and in particular, heavyweight boxing, requires abnormal focus, discipline, strategy over decades. Unachievable with below average intelligence.
Nonsense. How do you explain the low to negative inflation that has been there since the mid 80's and consistently declining births at the same time.
If anything, the relationship is the opposite, where low births cause population aging and subsequent deflation.
Less is less. Life is messy, noisy, inconvenient.
Japanese minimalism and conformism leads to not having children, living miserable emotional lives, alone and unfulfilled. And then not having kids and self-disappearing.
Screaming babies and toddlers messing up the furniture is life in its purest form.
Agreed, this is a new paradigm. My prediction is that nation states, corporations, central banks, high net worth individuals etc will all participate in mining, in order to avoid censorship or attacks on consensus rules. Increasing decentralisation further as a result. Like clockwork.
