You would have to trust the one cleaning your device. Mmmm where is the do not trust, verify ?

How would they ban self custodial wallets? I can't think of any way, other than forbid transactions with Central Exchanges and Banks.

it was an error that he thought that that was enough to not link the transaction to anyone.

And in the conference, he said there is a chance of prolonged weakness in the yen. It is out of control. They are trapped. That's what happens with too much debt.

Governments always want censorship resistant to be illegal. No worries. It is not the end

a virus can get your seed and save it and then send it as soon as you put airplane mode off again.

it has been declared for a while now

Yeah. I am considering to do this on my node. It has consequences as described there too. I don't know if I can filter them and the, then remove the filter as needed only.

This is bad news. Because gold mining is so bad for the environment. Humans should move from gold to Bitcoin faster.

Abundance in a finite world means there are enough resources for all animals and life, including humans. Since the world size is finite and we cannot change it and the energy is more or less constant from the Sun, abundance implies there has to be a limited number of humans and life on the planet. What is the limit? That's the question.

actually, maybe quite young looking. With genetic treatment that makes you younger not older. Already achieved on mice. But it will probably be only for millionaires. edit: I should have said, for those who have at least a full bitcoin :)

Unhosted? What is unhosted? Nothing to worry, unless it says self hosted. ;) But yes I can see the concern.

I know it is not broken. I should have said they cannot use Bitcoin right now temporarily. I can understand your frustration with people. For someone like you that spends time trying to educate making great guides and information out there, and yet there is lack of knowledge. They will always go to shitcoins like flies. It is not your fault.

The celebration is more like, hey, Bitcoin survived another 4 years.

Right now Bitcoin is broken for many people. I think this will make more people to finally learn about L2s and actually use them.

I am worried, but for now I think if the US does not want WWIII, it won't happen. The US is more worried about China and current price of oil. However, we have seen world wars start with smaller issues :(

I was some days disconnected away from everything, just thinking about life. I feel better. Of course, today I was thinking about Bitcoin and the halving too. People say that it had to be on a 4/20 and price should be 69K at the moment of halving. This is fun to think about, but we'll see. But not much happens at the moment of the halving. The most interesting part will be to see if there are miners who stop mining during the next days and see if difficulty decreases next. Until then, time average between blocks may increase. After a few difficulty adjustments, everything will go back to normal and price should increase steadily in the meantime.

by the way I met a very extremely successful hodler and she didn't know what the halving was. So yeah, it is not difficult to be a very good hodler. just hodl. **Ignore all the noise. **

I am heart broken. one day you are fine, the next day you are not in this Universe. Friendly reminder to all, if possible, live and enjoy as if this is your last day. Be happy and always respect others, you never know if this is their last day. Life is so short. :(

69 is clearly not random enough

Not rate hike but they can intervene again directly selling dollars. There is talk about 155 being the line on the sand for intervention.

Bitcoin is physical. Ask the miners how much physical it is to convert the energy into it. But it has many more advantages over gold. Ask people who have to transport gold for example.
