Back when boobs weren't a thing. We need to reevaluate our thoughts as men. Nothing special about these, they are just another body part. image
"We' ll keep fighting within corechain but also do a hardfork just in case corechain completely fails to deliver on the Mission of separating money from the state." ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐ŸพI like this approach. image
I may be on the side of BIP110, but I don't think a hard fork is necessarily the solution. The world we live in doesn't work the way we want it to. We may live in a world captured by banking cartels, greedy politicians, and powerful corporations, but I don't think the answer is to exit for Mars and try to recreate Earth somewhere else. I think the more realistic solution is to mount a rebellion big enough to challenge the legacy system from within. And if we fail? Reorganize. Change tactics. Try again. What do I mean by that? Bitcoin may be centralizing in certain ways, but simply exiting doesn't solve the underlying problem. The solution is to make Bitcoin harder to capture. Spread the word. Educate more people. Run your own node. Support decentralized mining. Do solo mining. Support projects like OCEAN. Run Bitcoin Knots. Build tools that reduce dependence on intermediaries. Create alternatives to the institutions we don't trust. The goal isn't to find another planet/fork where Bitcoin can be perfectly decentralized. The goal is to make Bitcoin so widely distributed, understood, and independently operated that no single group can easily capture it. We don't need to escape the legacy system. We need to build something strong enough to replace it. And when we reach critical mass, we don't need permission to liberate Bitcoin. We simply make capture increasingly impossible.
I' ve never seen a YouTube comment section that's not pro bip110. Let's hope that today their voices will be heard.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ
Bitcoin is hidden in plain sight. Yet most people still lump it together with the thousands of cryptocurrencies that came after it. That confusion has, in a strange way, kept Bitcoin from receiving the attention it might have had if it stood alone. Instead, it has quietly continued to grow in the shadows, waiting until it's ready to become the new king. ๐Ÿ‘‘ It reminds me of the story of King Ruganzu II Ndoli of Rwanda. In the late 1400s, Rwanda was ruled by King Ndahiro II Cyamatare. During his reign, the kingdom was invaded by the King of Bugara. Ndahiro was killed, and nearly the entire royal family was wiped out. But before his death, he put one final plan into motion. His infant son, Ruganzu Ndoli, was secretly smuggled out of Rwanda and taken to Karagwe, in present-day Tanzania, where his aunt, the queen, raised him in safety. Only a handful of loyal supporters knew he had survived. To everyone else, it appeared that the royal bloodline had been completely extinguished. Those loyalists kept the secret alive. They made discreet visits to Karagwe, checking on the young prince and asking the same question: "Is he ready?" Years passed. When the time finally came in the early 1500s, they quietly assembled a force, brought it to Karagwe, and launched a surprise campaign with their rightful king, Ruganzu II Ndoli, at its head. The campaign succeeded. The Kingdom of Rwanda was restored, stronger than before, and Ruganzu II Ndoli became one of the most celebrated kings in Rwanda's history. Bitcoin sometimes feels like that. While the world is distracted by thousands of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin continues to mature, strengthen its network, and quietly build an army of believers. Hidden in plain sight. The world thinks it's watching the main event. It may only be watching the distraction. The king has been growing in the shadows all along.
There's something about BIP110 that I think a lot of people overlook. I remember when Core 30 hadn't been merged yet. Many of us went to the PR and overwhelmingly signaled no by downvoting it. It was obvious there was significant opposition. Then came the public debates between both sides. Those debates clearly showed that this wasn't some fringe disagreement,it was a real concern within the Bitcoin community. Any reasonable person would have said, "Let's pause, talk this through, and find some common ground." After all, we're all on the same team: Bitcoin. But that didn't happen. Core chose to merge the change anyway. So when people now say filters don't matter or that they're harmless, my question is: if they weren't that important, why the rush? Why not take the time to understand why so many people were upset? Why not educate those who disagreed if the technical case was truly that strong? Instead, the message many people received was: "We've decided this is the right thing to do, and if you're not technical enough, your opinion doesn't matter." That mindset goes against the values Bitcoin was built on. Satoshi didn't challenge centralized authority just for developers to become a new authority that decides what should and shouldn't happen. That's why many people said no to what they saw as Core's increasingly centralized decision-making, and why BIP110 became more than just a technical proposal. It became a stand against that direction. @Luke Dashjr @Bitcoin Mechanic @calle
Core: we have freedom and we can't stop people passing by from throwing their trash in my backyard so am just gonna buy many trash cans for them to throw it in a more organized way. Bip110: I didn't build my backyard for people passing by to throw their trash in it so am gonna make it as hard as possible for them to do that.simple! I know that even the guys pushing for core don't allow people to throw trash in their backyards in real life. It's a fact. No one would. So why allow that on Bitcoin?! @Bitcoin Mechanic @calle
Bitcoin is secure not because it is โ€œadvanced,โ€ but because it is deliberately boring.
