Today we took action against online shops that, in our assessment, are misleading customers and acting against the ethos of open source. We identified cases where Bitaxe devices were advertised as “Made in Germany” despite being imported hardware. Claims like this are misleading and deliberately create a false impression about origin, quality, and legitimacy. Open source stands for transparency, honesty, and respect for both users and builders. Misrepresenting where products come from directly contradicts these principles and erodes trust in the entire ecosystem. This is not about restricting open-source participation. Anyone is free to build and sell Bitaxe devices. But using the Bitaxe name while making misleading claims about origin or affiliation is not acceptable. We will continue to act against practices that mislead customers and damage trust in the Bitaxe open-source project. Buyers should always verify the source and be cautious of misleading claims.

Radical idea but how about we give the best person the job, no matter what colour they are? Stuff like this is condescending, divisive and breeds resentment. It’s also damaging the game. We should call DEI what it is: anti-white racism.

This is Dr. Con "CK" Kolivas. He’s the most influential person in bitcoin that you’ve never heard of. An anaesthetist turned self-taught programmer who wrote the software that mined most of the bitcoin in existence (as a hobby while working full-time!). His story is wild 🧵👇

Litterally spend month accumulating this old relic. (alone it seems) Thank you mining Dutch for the daily dumps! Last pump it did a solid 187x in 15 days. Good narrative if we end up getting a real alt season. 40 ish blocks to redacted 2013 Hard Fork. New difficulty adjustment algo after hard fork. Same tokenomics as Bitcoin. Approx 12 years of uninterrupted blockchain history. Tons of developments behind the scenes, waiting for the hard fork to be unveiled. Either I'm retarded (most likely) or this will be major banger.
