The idea that Open Source can protect peoples rights in general is a fantasy. And rights are not corrupted; they are immutable and inherent. Well meaning people who are uneducated tend to talk around the idea of Rights because the inevitable conclusion of anyone who can think is that it is the State that is the enemy of all mankind, but they can't bring themselves to say it or even think it, because their brainwashing is total. They think they can defend their rights by using Open Source tools, but use Microsoft Windows, "Because its the standard". They refuse to encrypt their email and refuse to take personal risk to build or help build the very tools they mistakenly believe will save them from the problem whose name they dare not speak aloud: THE STATE. These people don't develop software and are pathetic fanboys who pour into software all their hopes of a ridiculous fantasy future where the State still exists and can only prey on everyone other than them. Thankfully these useless "men" have no means to stop the real men who are out to change the world. These people, had they been approached by Satoshi for an investment would have been turned down because not only are they the worst Lilly livered COWARDS but they have ZERO IMAGINATION and could not think their way out of a wet brown paper bag. MORE CAKE FOR US THEN, INNIT?

ONE OF THOSE DAYS.

It should be clear to everybody that it’s not possible to live in a country that has socialists in any position of power. They can’t be reasoned with, have a fundamentally different understanding of ethics and morality (none), and are a constant threat.

“Meaningful interactions” “Superiority over others” “Healthy conversations” Looks like the people writing clients are learning the principles of economics on the job, as well as sociology. They, being brainwashed, think money is bad, that free speech is toxic, that tools need to guide steer and control users, and many other such things. The same effects are seen in Bitcoin developers. Men who propose identity layer for the protocol, client devs who insist on usenames and passwords, devs who insist incorporating fiat into their wallets, foundations who believe the poor can’t manage private keys for themselvs as individuals, but because, “it takes a village / community” think key sharing is the only way the poor darkies can possibly manage the super power handed down to them from the enlightened supermen. No matter what happens, now that Bitcoin exists, it will not be possible for these mewling weaklings to stop the Golden BB. Reality is going to assert itself. The racists, nudgers, Socialists and control freaks are going to be neutralised, and a natural society will begin to emerge. The weak, cowardly, shivering, narrow little men who think the world is fresh asphalt, drive through McDonalds, fads and infantilism will all be sidelined, and the threadbare philosophies they’re using to cobstruct tools will all be minimised and then swept away. Remember “Cryptocat”? No you don’t, and you’re just like the developer of that tool. His fate will be your fate, because you don’t understand man. Its OK.

TURTLES ALL THE WAY GET DOWN.

JUST STOP FOR A WHILE.

Looks like it’s back to Damus for now, as it has very effective moron nullification.

There is, perhaps, nothing more delicious than watching people promote Bitcoin whilst clinging on to the fantasy that the State is an absolute requirement for things to work. Their "History just started yesterday" mentality rejects the evidence that the educated and reasoning have incorporated into their thinking. They know that Florence didn't have a US style surveillance state watching every transaction, "To keep people safe". They know that the City State of Venice didn't have USSR style Commissars watching every transaction; people were free to trade, travel and live, and that's why those places flourished, not due to the State existing, but because the State was very small, minded its business, didn't over tax and got out of everyone's way. This is why El Salvador is going to win; eschewing taxing Bitcoin business is super forward thinking, and will attract all sane businesses to its shores so they can be left to develop their services in peace. Only delusional Socialists believe regulation creates business; that's why New York is a BTC desert. If it were true that regulations created business, every Bitcoiner would be rushing to incorporate and operate in New York. The exact opposite is true; people avoid New York because the "BitLicense" is in force there. Making a "BitLicense Lite" as some Europeans are trying to do will simply make people operate in another jurisdiction where the poison hasn't been uncorked. If it were true that FinCEN registration and SEC regulation made businesses safe for consumers, then FTX would never have gone down, because they had all the licenses there were to apply for secured. How many examples do people need to see before they GET IT? Foundations don't created businesses. Regulations don't protect anyone. Regulations can't stop people losing money. It beggars belief that even in the face of the recent Californian banks, people still believe in the State like lemmings. If it were true that regulations and regulatory bodies offered protection, SVB could not have gone down, or any other bank. FDIC insurance would not be necessary; "Why do we even need FDIC? We have a Federal body regulating it, NOTHING CAN GO WRO.....KABOOM!". How DUMB can y' be? And of course, what the crazy Socialist says is, "The regulations were not strong enough or were not broad enough. We are going to bring in new regulators and instantiate a new Regulator to make sure this can never happen again". And then it happens again. And people don't learn. They're the most foolish, naïeve people on earth, much more so because they're educated and STILL believe in the State like children. This, my friends, is why Bitcoin needed to be written, and the Statists STILL don't understand this or see what is coming. Bitcoin will not allow the formation of any regulatory body because all money in the economy is put to economic uses not Socialism. It doesn't care about what you believe is required for an economy to grow or why it doesn't. It is a permanent constraint on the ignorant and naïeve who will not conform to reality. That Socialists actively support a thing that will make their vision for the world impossible is, perhaps, the greatest release of Schadenfreude ever in history. A group of imaginatinless men got tricked into promoting tools that 100% negate their philosophy. You couldn't make it up if you tried. And Bitcoin can't hear anyone whining about anything. It can't care that you refuse to accept reality; it imposes reality. It can't accept that you refuse the nature of man. It harnesses the nature of man to protect US from YOU. We will win, not you. It is our philosophy that is going to eat the world. It is us that are being proved right, not you. It is your world that is crumbling whilst ours is emerging. It is us that is helping to free mankind, not you. It is us that are the real Bitcoiners NOT YOU! Bitcoin wallets don't need "Regulation". https://twitter.com/Beautyon_/status/955098807838093313 The market is proven effective to build great civilizations, and the countries that had stringent regulations, like the USSR and New York, ended up crumbling and collapsing. https://twitter.com/Beautyon_/status/1584563240088244224 Because Bitcoin exists, it is not required to convince anyone anymore. Our way of thinking will become the default by attrition or capitulation. And it's not your choice either.

You can't be against Bitcoin regulation and for ICO regulation; the two are both based on software only. Regulation is not "leadership".

Everyone must know their rôle. If you can't run a company or develop tools, you have no place; and that's OK. https://twitter.com/Beautyon_/status/1646977557210755075 The world is a messy place with messy people and messy half baked ideas. Bitcoin is not half baked; it is a cake with sound rules built into it. This is why people have such a hard time understanding it. For most of their lives they've lived in a USSR... https://twitter.com/Beautyon_/status/1590655872556228610 style Communist / Socialist State, where the government sets the rules for everything, to where children can be born and educated, what the form of food you can eat is, and of course, the form of money you are required to accept by law. Ten years is not enough to cleanse out the stench of Statism from the minds of even the most intelligent and well meaning. It will take many years for that to happen, but the painful medicine must be swallowed first, and that medicine is "Bitcoin". Look at the new (maybe) phenomenon Nostr. The people who developed it, wrote it and then released it. They didn't ask permission, they didn't wait for the State to sanction it. They just DID IT, just like the author of Bitcoin DID IT. They are not Statists or losers. And the people who now name drop Nostr in the same breath as they do Bitcoin while claiming that Bitcoin needs regulation don't seem to understand that Nostr is REGULATION RESISTANT not CENSORSHIP RESISTANT. That means that anyone can say ANYTHING they want without consequences. Why are the people so hell bent on regulation not saying that Nostr is a very bad thing? because they want to appear to be the good guys, and everyone loves Nostr, so it is not possible to say anything against Nostor and also be a good Bitcoiner. But that's another story. Nostr exposes a problem with the current state of the Bitcoin economy. Because businesses are needed to onboard new users and develop and manage consumer grade wallets, those businesses are a SPOF that Statists can attack and "regulate" to "Keep People Safe". People who want regulation of Bitcoin businesses are no better than Chuck Shumer, who wants to regulate "AI". The danger zone layer that is the businesses that distribute Bitcoin services are the place where people who can't write software and who are too frightened to invest in companies can have a disproportionate and toxic effect on the economy. Because they don't have a real stake in Bitcoin by running a business that spreads it, they can advocate for regulation in the belief that no matter what happens they will be rich. It's why Sailor advocated for regulation. There are many characters doing this. Lummis for one

I've been saying this over and over and over... https://twitter.com/search?q=bitcoin%20regulation%20(from%3Abeautyon_)&src=typed_query Consistency is Bitcoin's greatest attribute. If people were as consistent as computer programmes, there would be a lot less trouble in the world...or maybe more...who knows? All _I_ know is that history is REAL and it REPEATS itself, and regulation CANNOT CHANGE MAN'S NATURE.

IMAGINATION.

EVERYTHING IS OK…AND GETTING BETTER EVERY DAY.

STEMS or SYSTEMS?

PNBL The PNBL (Portable Nostr Block List) is an XML file that you can import into your Nostr client tht will prevent the display of anything from a pubkey in the file. This file and standard will allow all Nostr clients to impliment a block list that is portable, extensible and easy to use. There is no reason why anyone has to toleratee spam on Nostr, such as is found from this account: npub1curnt7jtq8mhl9fcswnwvuvc9ccm6lvsdv4kzydx75v92kldrvdqh7sq09 when you could just import that pubkey to your spam JSON and then never see tawdry nonsense like it again. Abuse is something you put up with, not something that is a requirment. The PNBL standard should become the default for all Nostr clients. Please impliment it!

Imagine it’s 2147. The last Bitcoin block has been mined. And you, and everyone else working in Bitcoin are all dead. When the people living in the glorious Bitcoin future look back on you, if you’re even remembered at all, what will they say about your legacy? If you have anything to do with ”Ordinals” you will be looked upon with scorn and contempt. What you did was put an irrevocable technical burden on all future generations, who have to carry your monkey images around forever. Disgusting. In history and ethics lessons, they will look at NFT “Ordinal” images and be totally perplexed at how anyone could think this was a worthwhile and ethical use of the scarce resource that Bitcoin is, and how they could burden future men and women with something so manifestly trivial and selfish. And what will they say about you? If you are Ben Lasky, they will put you in the same category as the authors of Jim Crow and Miscegenation laws, of Communists, and Apartheid. Your photo will be in the gallery of evil men in history, between Pol Pot and Stalin. And all the hangers on and cowards who believed in the State will be in the “also ran” classification as Petit Statist, Petit-Banquier, Crony Capitalist, who couldn’t code, wouldn’t invest and should’ve known better. You people need to stop and think. Think about the future, about what your legacy will be and how you can actually help other people, rather than satisfy your base urges to ruin, control and destroy. It’s hard to predict who the people living today are that have secured their place in history. The obvious ones always come to mind, but there are some who are so important, so obviously key figures in shaping the future, that it’s easy to spot them today. It’s also easy to say they’ll be remembered because history will not be told by the class of people tasked with preserving snd disseminating the truth in 2023 (government schools and “Mainstreal Media”). President Nayib Bukele is someone who almost certainly will be remembered; he took the first step into the future with a bold vision very few had, but which turned out to be right. His will be a textbook story of risk taking and future oriented thinking; the exact opposite of the “Ordinals” pushers and incomprehensible creatures like Hillary Rodham Clinton and other “Democrats” who deny math and reality. The future is coming. It’s hard to predict the specifics in most cases, especially when it comes to the effects of something like Bitcoin, which will touch everything. But you can be sure of some parts of it. A single Bitcoin is going to worth a Manhattan city block. Everyone will use Bitcoin, no one will question it. Its detractors will be dead, buried and discredited. Don’t make the mistake of betting against Bitcoin, polluting it for giggles, trying to regulate it, “for the good of everyone”, and bringing your filthy Statism with you into the future. The future doesn’t want or need your filth. TRUST ME.

BITCOIN.

Slavery must end. No compromise is acceptable to all ethical people.

Deep in the middle of summer, in the City of London. Everyone is away on holiday. It's very hot, and quiet.
