BIP 110, whether you support it or not, is like the spoon in The Matrix: you cannot bend it. It's impossible. Instead, you realize the spoon does not exist.

Nostr is great if you connect with plebs. Ignore big accounts that get 50k sats zaps for posting empty sentences

BTC is going down because Bitcoiners tied it to Trump. Trump is garbage, and hardcore anarchist maxis are a minority compared to moonboys. Here’s the analysis. Deal with it. Anarchists need to take back the narrative. BTC best use case IS buy drugs online.

I like people who still have critical thinking skills. View quoted note →

Tor and Bittorrent are massive, anarchic protocols still far beyond Wall Street’s reach. The internet itself was the same until corporations standardized and degraded it. Wall Street did nothing for Bitcoin. Price is ~10k above pre-ETF, that’s noise.

Web3 people should probably update their LinkedIn and start looking for jobs at McDonald’s. At this point… maybe all of us should

By the way, they vibe coded the ui and did not even bother to hide it. I can bet their protocol is garbage and will be hacked. Mark my words.

It almost worked

You can't make this shit up, Tone is completely braindead

Is it typical for a sound money protocol to standardize grifting?

Citrea scammers say it's not kind to insult them.

The only fucking "truth" left in analyst... is the "anal" part, you spreadsheet-sucking.

I will never let anyone handwave away the facilitating and standardizing of spam as anything else than a philosophical pivot.

Tax money mostly go to the powerful ones. The rich then manipulate information to create wars against the poor. While we fight they laugh.

What Gloria thinks about plebs.

Most of those still backing Core today aren’t defending principles, but resignation. A kind of nihilism that says nothing can change, so fighting isn’t worth it anymore.

“Don’t trust your eyes, your instincts, or your moral compass. Read this blog post by <insert very technical authority figure> and stop spewing your dAngErOus wrongthink” Sorry, that’s not how it works for me.

Bitcoin used to be about HONEY BADGER DONT GIVE A FUCK. Fuck an op return. Fuck a hoe. Fuck a Peter Wuille. Don’t touch my bitcoin. GM

Before Bitcoin Is Wrecked: A Call to Stop the Woke Virus Dear Humanity, Something unthinkable has happened. The stewards of the hardest, most revolutionary money ever invented, the reference implementation that hundreds of thousands of people blindly run as their full nodes, have publicly declared, with a straight face: "What even is spam?" Four words. Four words that no serious Bitcoin developer in the first sixteen years of this project would ever have dared to utter. Four words that instantly exposed a terminal ideological infection, the same woke mind virus that produced "What is a woman?" in the broader culture, has now infiltrated Bitcoin Core and is spreading its poison, physically and mentally, across the world. This death cult knows no limits in its will to desecrate and destroy whatever is sacred. Bitcoin was never meant to be a neutral database for cat memes, JPEG monkeys, or layer-2 casinos. It was engineered with monk-like discipline to be one thing and one thing only: scarce, sovereign, unstoppable, apolitical money, the final peaceful exit from centuries of central-bank tyranny, inflationary theft, and the coming nightmare of programmable CBDCs. Bitcoin Maxis have never wavered on these fundamentals. They still unify us worldwide. For sixteen years that vision was defended with almost religious austerity. Every single byte in a block was treated as sacred. Then a small but fanatical clique threw away more than a decade of moral discipline. They decided that treating arbitrary data blobs the same as actual monetary transactions was somehow morally enlightened. They celebrated when Core v30 raised the standardness limit from approximately 83 bytes to 100000 bytes, a 1200× increase in tolerated bloat, so that Ordinals scammers and token issuers could more comfortably etch their garbage directly into Satoshi’s ledger. They called it "evolution." Now they defend these newly created spam buckets as innocent tools that any bad actor can exploit at will. Let Satoshi himself close this debate once and for all: "It would be an accident waiting to happen. If there's going to be a message system, it should be a separate system parallel to the bitcoin network. Messages should not be recorded in the block chain." Satoshi Nakamoto We call it what it is: the deliberate attempt to "transition" sound money into BitEthereum. This is the woke mind virus in its purest form: the destruction of clear definitions, the elevation of confusion into sophistication, and the weaponization of tolerance to smuggle in an entirely different value system while pretending it is still the same project. The pattern is always the same. The outcome is always degeneration. Excessive tolerance inevitably leads to decadence. We have watched this script play out in every institution the virus has touched. Now it has reached the monetary base of the free world. Bitcoin Knots and those who stand with Luke Dashjr are not the radicals. They are the adults in the room. They are the immune system. We, the true moderates, the true conservatives of Bitcoin’s founding principles, have been far too patient. We tolerated "diverse viewpoints" while the virus spread. We told ourselves "consensus will sort it out" while the reference client slowly turned into a Trojan horse. That era of suicidal tolerance is over. Bitcoin is not a playground. Bitcoin is not a social experiment. Bitcoin is the Nth Wonder of the World, the discovery of digital scarcity, the first real separation of money and state, the only antidote to the coming CBDC dystopia. If you believe Bitcoin must remain neutral, hard, sovereign money, money that a dissident can still run on a Raspberry Pi under a dictatorship without permission, then you must act now. The captain is drunk on his own Kool-Aid and steering straight toward the rocks. It is time to relieve him of command, politely, with gratitude for past service, but firmly and finally. Bitcoin is sacred. What is sacred must be defended without compromise. What we do in life echoes in eternity. Future generations will ask: "When the woke mind virus came for the hardest money ever created… what did you do?" The time for intolerance has come. The confused Coretards have to go. With urgency and unbreakable resolve, A Bitcoin Maxi who will not let Satoshi’s gift be stolen by the death cult!

The Nostr community is much smaller than Twitter’s, but the ratio of real people and meaningful discussions is easily 10x. No algorithm pushing propaganda also makes Nostr way cooler.
