May we all hope for such a life.

My coworkers are trying to figure out how to transfer a sizable sum between them; large enough they can't do it via payment apps they share, large enough banking apps won't cash a check digitally. I told them they could settle it on-chain in 10 min. Too bad they're using USD. #plebchain #plebstr
For a pluralistic society to survive, agreement on the importance of Truth is more important than agreement on what is true. Hashing out what we all can agree on is a challenging process, but it only works if we put value on the ability to agree.

The Ordinals clogging up the mempool may be nothing more than very expensive graffiti, but they do make an effective point about the importance of scaling solutions. Glad I had a chunk on #Lightning already #plebstr #Bitcoin
Got a question for #plebchain -- at what block height does Bitcoin officially qualify as a Wonder of the World? Who even decides that?
Afraid your libertarianism might not be tainted with degeneracy? The Tenets of Dimitrism outlines the one true path to our destiny in the stars.
I'm not much for ideological purity myself, but it was a fun to narrate Mr. Brookfield's manifesto.

Moving any sizable sum of USD is such an absurd hassle. The future is better than that. #bitcoin #plebstr
