When a Bitcoiner says, "Bitcoin fixes this",
Normies actually hear, "being rich fixes this".
And when we say "put your coins in deep cold storage, and back up your keys",
Normies hear, "just buy the Bitcoin ETF".
And when we say, "GFY",
A normie actually hears "GFY".

Stop being dumb on the internet, it triggers me
I don't care if you're taking a holiday from work or school.
Merry *Christmas*

SPECULATIVE ATTACKCEPTION
Saylor is running a speculative attack on the dollar, while simultaneously advocating for an attack on non USD fiat with USD.
I don't think we're not in a simulation
I now have ParmAirGap for super paranoid Bitcoiners...



Right now, someone, somewhere, is sitting on the toilet, torn between continuing to read my Tweet/Nostr history vs wiping, and this makes me happy.
GFY
I mean, GM
Quick reminder that your government is not your country, it's your ruler.
Yeah Bitcoin is a nice idea, but it will probably never catch on.


Not gay if it's a Bitcoiner and only the tip.
I was on the tram with my wife and there was a young grungy couple to our to side, very avoidable types.
The young girl was lovingly listing the things she tolerated about him. One of them was his obsession with crypto.
"It's hardly crypto", he mumbled, without breaking the girl's momentum.
"Should I?" I thought. I don't normally talk to randos on public transport.
After a minute or so contemplating, I took the plunge, "Excuse me, I hope you don't mind me asking, I couldn't help overhear you saying, "it's hardly crypto", what did you mean by that?"
"Because there's one and only."
Exactly what I suspected. Without saying anything else, I hugged him and hugged him.
Feeling emotional right now, best dream ever!
Parman's Wife: "Why are you even arguing with these people?"
Parman: "They are replying to MY Tweets, and I always answer."
Wife: "But why? How much time do you have for these people?"
Parman: "It's polite - it doesn't take that much time to tell someone to fuck off, or that they're wrong."
Be offended
There are an awful lot of people who know nothing about the tech who are in it for the tech.
I'm looking forward to the #OhFuckening - the wait will make it extra sweet, but there will be salt.
You like the idea of smart contracts on blockchains?
Smart contracts are essentially for replacing enforcement of ownership through the legal system (and the state, and violence) with a digital contract ("code is law").
For those who want to put their property on "the blockchain", when illegal immigrants invade and decide to occupy your house, you can throw the Ethereum "smart" contract in their face. That'll show them.
Now that you see the contract doesn't enforce ownership, you still need the law and the state, what was its initial purpose again? Oh, yeah, to replace the enforcement of ownership. LOL.
You see, digital contracts can only enforce digital things. They can never enforce real-world things. They can only prove you paid for something, or prove ownership, not enforce.
A simple contract on paper will do for that. Or a digital database, eg run by the government, the very people you rely on for enforcement of ownership. You don't need it to be "smart" and you don't need it to be decentralised - what are you trying to overthrow? The people you need to enforce your contract.
It's nonsensical to think you can replace the legal system. It is encoded in mountains of text and there are always new exceptions and situations arising. Who are you going to appeal to when a smart contract doesn't encode the subtleties of a new situation? Replacing the legal system with coding nerds is a stupid thing to hope for.
If you hold Ethereum, please remember to do your Christmas shopping early - you don't want a repeat of last year, disappointing your wife's lover with some lame socks. Take your time and find something special.
