Running a BIP 324 #Bitcoin Node Can Help Make You and The Network More Private BIP 324 is a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal that outlines a protocol for encrypted peer-to-peer communication between Bitcoin nodes. The protocol uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to establish a secure connection between nodes, which helps to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks and improve the overall security of the Bitcoin network. There are a few reasons why it's important to run a Bitcoin node that supports BIP 324. First, it helps to ensure that your node is communicating with other nodes securely, which helps to prevent attacks that could compromise the integrity of the Bitcoin network. Second, it helps to improve the overall privacy of your node by encrypting your communications with other nodes. Finally, supporting BIP 324 helps to contribute to the ongoing development and improvement of the Bitcoin protocol, which is important for ensuring the long-term viability of the network. Overall, if you're running a Bitcoin node, it's a good idea to make sure that it supports BIP 324 to help ensure the security and privacy of your node, and to contribute to the ongoing development of the Bitcoin network. Find out more at https://bip324.com/ or watch a video on BIP324 Lastly, please note that you can currently run a BIP324 node, but it is still in beta and being actively worked on by the developer community.

This quickly became my favorite answer to the question: "Why #Bitcoin?" Because it could destabilize nations! - An open source code project in its teen years and it's already this powerful. image

The Tiny Kingdom Of Bhutan Secretly Held Millions Of Dollars In #Bitcoin & shitcoins https://www.forbes.com/sites/iainmartin/2023/04/15/the-tiny-kingdom-of-bhutan-secretly-held-millions-of-dollars-in-cryptocurrency/?sh=5f7ffa437f1d The Himalayan kingdom has quietly been dumping millions of dollars into bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Its investments, which have never been publicly disclosed, were revealed in the bankruptcy filings of lenders BlockFi and Celsius. Two things: 1) Game theory works as expected. 2) Not your keys, not your bitcoin.

Unpopular opinion: ordinals are good for Bitcoin! No, I'm not a fan but #Ordinals are a living proof that even if we made the blocks larger (aka Bitcoin XT, Classic, Unlimited, Bcash, bsv), it wouldn't be enough. Because there's always someone, looking to fill that space with more clutter, while making #Bitcoin more centralized (less nodes). image
