I think Spamcoiners are angry at our chain because they keep calling Luke crazy and incompetent, yet he keeps outsmarting them. Their real frustration is with him. View quoted note →

Hey, Monero people, can I tempt you to start using Neoxa Exchange to buy and sell XMR? If you want to sell your XBT for XMR, this is the only place where it’s possible AFAIK, and it’s completely non-KYC. The order book is basically empty, so we’d really appreciate some liquidity, even at a premium.

The sad thing is that Bitcoin is never going to make it to your phone as long as it remains dependent on the fiat gatekeepers now ruling unchallenged on SHA-256. There are plenty of reasons why I don’t see that happening there, but these are probably the biggest ones: 1. The chain is growing too fast, especially thanks to blowing up OP_RETURN. Phone hardware simply won’t be able to keep up with the memory requirements. 2. Nobody left on SHA-256, at least nobody that matters, seems to think Bitcoin is actually supposed to be money. To them, Bitcoin can be anything else, just not money. 3. Development on SHA-256 is highly centralised and tightly controlled. You’re not going to get the support or funding for genuinely groundbreaking designs. The most consequential engineering achievement in the past nine years was DATUM, and the entire industry pretends it doesn’t exist. There are plenty of other reasons why I don’t think SHA-256 Bitcoin will ever run on phones. But these three should already tell you where this is heading. View quoted note →

Blockstream might turn out to be the FTX of this cycle.

The guide is ready. Before you try it, a few disclaimers: 1. I’m not a technical guy, so take the instructions with a grain of salt. There is a real risk of making a mistake and losing your sats, especially if you’re doing this for the first time. Start with a small amount that you can afford to lose and make sure you understand each step before moving on. Do not try to split your whole stack on your first attempt. 2. This is probably not the best way to split your coins, but it’s how I did it. It works. 3. Do not rush the process. I’ve tried my best to make it as simple as possible to follow, preserve your progress, and retrace your steps if needed. Any suggestions for improving the guide for plebs are welcome.

Looks to me like a virus who is slowly spreading until eventually the host is completely taken over.
