"The Bitcoin Handbook" by @Anil is really a colorful book with helpful graphics showing facts nicely.

It's a pity that snort.social does not work properly anymore with Tor :-( All profile names and pictures are not resolved anymore.

Pleasure to reread these inspiring essays by @Tomer Strolight in this wonderful little book.

Finished reading "Praxeology" by @Knut Svanholm ∞/21M. Bitcoin not even mentioned in the chapter about money ;-)

When reading "Principles of Economics" by @Saifedean Ammous one have to be aware that here the word "fiat" as a slightly negative connotation that has been introduced in the "Fiat Standard" 😉

Started reading "Principles of Economics" by @Saifedean Ammous Quite a pleasure reading such a high quality hardcover book.

The leading voices in Bitcoin are changing fast like at the Tour de France when speed is high and everyone in the main field is only leading at the front for less than a minute. That is healthy and quite the opposite to politics where people are sticking to their posts for a lifetime and can not retire even if they are already mentally impaired.

Dead code is a code smell and should be removed. That also applies to Bitcoin scripts. From a development point of view removing ordinals would make sense. A lot of care is taken to make block usage as efficient as possible, but removing dead code is not a priority? //cc @Bitcoin Mechanic

As a business you may say that customers demand that you support some altcoins, but following this demand has high opportunity costs, because it binds resources that will not be invested in Bitcoin.

"You Don't Change Bitcoin, Bitcoin Changes You". Except some liberals as it seems as they try to shoehorn Bitcoin into their believe systems like in this book "A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin". Unfortunately this book is not about a Bitcoin journey. It is standstill on the old paradigm of left and right. It is really disappointing that #BitcoinMagazine publish such a lame book.
