After v30 Me: “Study #Bitcoin” Normies: “What, the CSAM distribution thing?! Dafuq is wrong with you?!” View quoted note →

Bitcoin the protocol is extralegal, no State can impose upon it. That is what makes it special, and money outside the State. Bitcoin the software running on your node, and the Bitcoin blockchain stored on your device, is NOT extralegal. States already can and do make laws about what software you are allowed to run and what data you are allowed to store, in their jurisdiction. They will throw you in prison for having prohibited software/data. Inviting the State to come and impose targeted legislation on #Bitcoin and #Bitcoiners like @_Checkɱate 🔑⚡🌋☢️🛢️ does here, is fucking retarded. They don’t have to arrest everyone; they’ve just got to arrest enough people and publicise it enough to chill others from wanting to take the risk (ala Wallet of Satoshi and Breez withdrawing from US). Is James going to flee if Albo bans Bitcoin nodes in Australia? Albo is banning under 16s from social media for “won’t somebody please think of the children” - what, you think he won’t ban software that is “used for money laundering, financing terrorism, and openly circulates images of CP”? No, James will just stop running a node after a few stories hit the news, because James doesn’t want to go to prison; and that’s going to happen a lot so then Bitcoin becomes WAY more centralised. This is the same dumb shit as people saying they’ll tell the State they lost their keys in a boating accident if they come knocking - ok pleb, well you sit in this cell whilst the State destroys the lives of your entire family and see if you can remember that seed phrase.. The risk of spamming Bitcoin with CP and putting crosshairs on Bitcoiners is not worth it for whatever the blue haired faggs at Core are claiming they’re going to achieve, which honestly, they’ve articulated absolutely nothing. And if you think the State won’t fight back as their fiat currencies crumble, the very thing which underpins their legitimacy, instead of finding scapegoats in Bitcoiners who are now wealthy, and atomised, and easily picked off - then you’re NGMI.

Nick Szabo has returned to Xitter and weighed in on #Bitcoin OP_RETURN noting the legal risk the size increase opens up (ie CSAM stored on nodes). But Brandon Black understands “the nuances of game theory relating specifically to bitcoin relay policy better than Nick Szabo.” The hubris of these Devs is off the charts.

So the new #Zionist gambit is to buy off “””influencoors””” and pay them to produce, whatever the fuck this is.. I’m definitely convinced to stop being a “musty antisemite” having seen this. Completely forgot about all those videos of the IDF sniping kids and blowing up residential buildings!

Here’s the next failed AI pendant/pin,blowing a shitload on a NYC marketing campaign - friend.com #Friend Startup bros and VCs need to get out of their bubbles where they view normies as drooling morons who will do anything to get their hands on the latest slop because some blue haired journos called it “cool”. We used to make fun of people going to the movies alone, even going out to eat alone in some places. That bar might have lowered as social isolation has become more common, but the bar isn’t now at acceptance of one who “talks to an AI necklace which reinforces one’s pathologies via AI”. Anyone who buys this is just signalling they’re a loser and will be relentlessly mocked in the few social interactions they have whilst wearing it. Hoping that they retreat to the couch and double down on your friend necklace is not a winning strategy, it’s pathetic. View quoted note →

Dario explains well the ridiculous ponzi that OpenAI, Nvidia, and Oracle (amongst others) are perpetuating. I see only 2 ways the “this time is different” thesis plays out: 1. The bubble they’ve blown would destroy the Dollar itself, so Treasury will be forced to bail them out and cover their fraudulent tracks, probably via nationalisation ala Intel 2. The banks keep ploughing in made up money because some C-level retards can be convinced LLMs will become Gods and they can have their piece of it Otherwise this is a carbon copy of the Dotcom bubble playing out. The same tricks, the same fraud, the same greed, the same good ideas too early. Dario thinks it’s the last innings, again I think he’s too early; mania hasn’t arrived yet.

So many #Bitcoiners built their reputations exploring the frontiers of this new idea space / social technology which could refactor society. Then so many sold out to shill Bitcoin Treasury Companies which would keep Bitcoin inside the fiat system. When the next bubble bursts, and these clowns try to reclaim their reputations as Maxis in the aftermath - deny them it. They wanted quick #fiat bucks. They will rationalise their involvement, but they didn’t have to do this shit; they submitted to their base instincts and low time preference and deserve to be shunned.

MAKA Make America Kind Again DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU The tshirt of this Boomer Karen smashing up a Trump effigy with glee on her face 😂

Random prediction, but one I want you to park in your brain that you heard on #nostr first “When” will be commonly changed to “wen” within a generation.

Trump thinks they’re going to sell 100,000 golden visas at $1M a pop 😂 Hard to describe how delusional this is.

The Core v30 side is filled to the brim with degenerate losers who can’t even accept their own biological sex, but who nonetheless think they know what’s best for #Bitcoin I wouldn’t let he/they tie my shoes, I certainly wouldn’t let him near my family - why would I want him anywhere near my money? He’s not reproducing. He’s not building a future for his kids. Why do these biological deadends feel such a need to impose themselves on a system which is setup to survive them and benefit this generation’s offspring? View quoted note →

Those who are #nostr only might have missed this bit of News today. Vivek Ramaswamy’s Strive has acquired the True North podcast, a show which just gives gobbies to Saylor and Treasury companies and makes absolutely retarded price predictions which had all the fanbois giddy last year. Not sure what stage of the cycle this is? View quoted note →

6102 days since #Bitcoin was launched No Executive Orders to seize it, yet.

‪#Core devs sitting on $700 worth of Sats because they never understood the economics of #Bitcoin and have nothing to lose if they fuck this project up given none of them have any stake in the future of humanity, about to merge v30
