All mining companies should be vigorously donating to Samourai's defense fund. This case could be the vehicle to attack bitcoin. If Samourai is an "unlicensed money transmitting business," then so are miners. The same holds for Lightning infrastructure businesses.
I don't understand why more in the ecosystem haven't spoken up for Samourai. If CoinJoin coordinators are unlicensed money transmitting businesses, then guess what? So are miners.
The Biden/Harris administration tried to forcibly inoculate 84 million Americans who worked at companies with 100+ employees. Get the shot, get tested WEEKLY, or get fired. I didn't forget. If you truly believe in "my body, my choice," then you WON'T vote for Kamala Harris.
Prediction: The DoJ will pursue bitcoin miners for unlawfully operating "unlicensed money transmitting businesses" in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1960(a). If custody or control is not required for liability, then miners are next on the chopping block. You heard it here first :)
The Biden administration has mandated that starting in 2028 light bulbs must achieve 120 lumens per watt (up from 45 today). Soft white and multicolored LEDs may not be able to meet the new standard. image
I don't have a Lightning address since Phoenix left. I took it off my profile. So I have no idea how this is possible or where these sats are going... image
Whenever I have to work on weekends, I remind myself that at least I don't have to landscape outside when it's 95 degrees. I have no idea how those people do it.
He'd completely mess up the bed if I didn't have dog blankets lol
The solution to censorship is not legal. It is technological. #nostr
Lyft driver is telling me she got drunk at Applebee's last night and she doesn't remember how she got home but the car ain't dent and that's what's important
My ex-Mormon mentor just told me that when he was 13, he confessed to a bishop that he liked to look at Victoria's Secret magazines. The bishop said that's almost as bad as murder, made him promise to stop, and then put his name on a signed list of good boys. Later, he had to put on a white jumpsuit and was dunked multiple times in a hot tub mounted on 12 white cattle statues. This process allowed dead people who'd been waiting hundreds of years to finally get into heaven.
