Just dumb and I doubt this will go through.
This would create more bureaucracy issues: prenups between roommates etc.
Binance and Bitfinex just don’t like opening channels with low liquidity randos. And liquidity is for sale.
And even if they reject my channel, they can still forward my payment if there’s a path.
What if the ”dirty” UTXOs get deposited into e.g. Phoenix wallet and the node runner has a channel open with ACINQ?
I don’t think ACINQ freezes coins?
For anyone, not for everyone.
Although everyone will be using it in some kind of a wrapper form without them knowing much about it.
Basically, we are back to the tug of war between centralized and decentralized market players; where the former use regulatory capture to decapitate their competitors.
Think about it, in what world does it make sense for the CEO of any thriving and successful company to demand the state intervene in their industry to make sure everyone is safe?
I see an analogy between traditional banks and Bitcoin here.
Only you know the right answers if you go deep in yourself, whether you approach them through your intellect or devotion.
I personally prefer the former approach, and some snippets coming from these spiritual leaders can be constructive, like this:
“On the other hand, relationships tend to become less and less personal and increasingly virtual, and there is a risk of becoming accustomed to delegating to algorithms decisions that belong solely to human conscience,” he warned, addressing thousands of faithful gathered in St Peter’s Square.
“Ensuring that social relationships have real substance and personal depth is, in this regard, the contribution that the Christian community seeks to offer,” he said.
I have a feeling though that Pope might be harnessed as an authority to keep the powerful technology away from the masses.
Live on a small houseboat near a river estaury, sink the boat. No need for cadaver.
Make sure you have your 12 seed words.. new passport identity saved beforehand!
But if you have the moneys, the simplest strategy would probably be to travel to some poor, corrupt African country and pay a coroner well to write a report and hush hush.
Also local reports in Costa Rica said that Mircea was Polish, although he was Romanian.
Probably just an innocent mix-up though.
As you get older, every new day is proportionally a smaller part of your life. That’s why it feels like it goes by in a ”blink of an eye”.
You’re on a good path if you can internalize that and be grateful and present.
Some solid info there:
A few take-aways
- Forked wallets used to be the usual move (there are a few BlueWallet forks), often reskinned poorly, now they moved to AI-recreated wallets from scratch("Claude, make a wallet just like BlueWallet but with a brand-new codebase")
- Appstore search, just like Google search, and ad placements, cannot be trusted
- Reputation alone is not enough to trust software with lots of money
- These apps get put wherever they can, even trying to get listed on bitcoin.org
- Some have fake reviews ("been using this app for 2 years!" when the app is 2 months old)
- Single device should NOT be the single signer for any meaningful amount of money
In my humble opinion, the best thing to do is stack sats without obsessing over the short-term price.
Agree with this because there are better things in life than watching charts.
But to answer the question: yes, most likely we have seen the bottom.
Market structure has changed after the sudden pump candle to high 70k.
Time-based capitulation is under way. The exchange rate could still go to low 60s without changing the overall bullish structure.
They should have some kind of a 2FA-type check even for government requests.
Would be interesting to see the wording of the request: ”Hurry! Right now.. give the data.. we need to catch this terrorist!”
Probably a great tool to practice managing multisig quorums
