Your understanding on how to scale safely is, in your words, the problem connected to the requirement that every single user of the network has to see all transaction of all others on the network. And this is a flawed understanding, as people like me have said since 2014. An debatable assumption, not a requirement. Satoshi wrote the SPV chapter in the bitcoin whitepaper to indicate this fact and for me to prove here that this is not some new-fangled idea. It literally predates the genesis block. It is, and always has been, the goal to make the 90% of the users use SPV validation. Which doesn't require them to get any other transactions than the ones for them. So your basic premise of what scaling is about is debtable. Which is why the scaling solution people followed as "small blockers" is different from what the "big blockers" followed. Different general architecture. Not scaling. Architecture was the core debate topic.

PART 2/7 What was the Blocksize War really about? (and why couldn't we reach agreement to just "make it bigger?") This is the nerdy stuff, but important to actually understand the history of all this - especially with the nonsense one will get from Bcashers on what the debate even was. If you want to skip this, then just jump to the last 30 seconds. One common bcasher claim is that there was always consensus on making the blocks bigger and scaling limits were a completely made up issue. It's worth noting where the debate about scaling bitcoin truly began.

Did Jeffrey Epstein hijack Bitcoin? PART 1/7 This theory has been making the rounds lately - the Bcashers have been veritably drooling over it since the DOJ dump. It's time to actually go point by point and see if this actually lines up and if there is a real connection between Epstein and the blocksize war. (I'm breaking this up to avoid one long video) To kick it off, let's give the summary of what the conspiracy is, and its main evidence supporting it. (@LibertyLockPod @BretWeinstein @TuckerCarlson)

@Unihertz hello! Is there any way you guys can help communities like lineageos.org to make their offerings available for your hardware? It would be the best combination as all the google stuff makes devices really unattractive for a lot of people.

Android has an app store for power users. It’s called Obtainium. It installs and updates apps directly from their official release pages: • GitHub releases • GitLab releases • F-Droid repos • APKMirror / APKPure • direct APK links Key features: • automatic update tracking • release notifications • install apps straight from source • no Play Store dependency You get apps directly from the developer, not a middleman. Perfect for open-source and privacy-focused Android users.

@BCHcash_mint I won a bid but the "complete purchase" doesn't work. Comes back with a really long error. Is this a known issue? Can you help me?

100+ NFTs successfully traded and counting! 📈 Just crossed the Triple-digit trade volume milestone on #CashMint. Great seeing these assets move through #BitcoinCash and connecting with collectors. To everyone who’s been part of these first 100+: We’re just getting started. 🥂

@albertdrosphoto Can you please share the town/church name for us locals?

Yesterday’s full moonset in The Netherlands. There were quite some clouds but luckily the moon showed itself beautifully when it was at the church. Distance: 2.7km, photographed with my 400-800mm lens at 600mm

@Bit_Faced @etherbalance @FundMeCash @tipprbot If you send me a tip, I need to interact with the bot to claim my funds. So you need to get my attention or maybe I will end up just never claiming. The previous iteration used a direct message to get the attention on platforms like reddit. Yeah, have to be creative.

@etherbalance @FundMeCash Why would it need to use DMs? The @tipprbot just responded in the thread.

The X/Twitter Tip Bot Campaign is live on @FundMeCash! If you would like to be able to tip people BCH here on X, please contribute to the campaign at the link below! 👇 fundme.cash/campaign/106

@Bit_Faced @MaxH1987 @grok @tipprbot just please don't DM the destination-user, it will likely get you banned. Maybe keep the initial reply very brief and write something like: "A: you'll receive the tip directly after you DM me. (I'll never DM first!)."

@FloweeTheHub @MaxH1987 @grok I basically copied the old @tipprbot with a couple modifications.

I want to build a new BCH tip bot for X. Is anyone interested in this? It has infrastructure costs. The X API costs $100 per month. How should this be handled?

@Bit_Faced @MaxH1987 @grok Tl;dr It would be tricky to get the UX nice while staying compliant.

Almost 40 orgs just signed an open letter telling Google to reverse Android Developer Verification, we're one of them. Google has not backed down and seems to have no intention of keeping Android open. Check out our newest video covering what's going on and what we can do: youtu.be/5MZfGq5F1NU

Today finished a simple but powerful feature for repeat payments. The notification that shows a payment is due, but not yet approved now allows disabling of the payment directly from the system-notification. Also added in the main UI, that made sense.

@cculianu @Etherphoenix @steveinpursuit He's acting out a role that evolution required communities to have when we had 'small' tribes. It effectively is meant to keep the social order and avoid rebellion against an injust / stupid leader. Unjust leaders are only removed by alpha's. He literally can't see the illogic.

@Etherphoenix @steveinpursuit Yes! This! Like the mechanics are there staring him in the face Maybe some people are just mechanism challenged Not everybody’s brain has the same strengths and weaknesses I guess

Man I listened to this whole @steveinpursuit podcast (available on Steve’s YouTube channel) It’s quite dispiriting to see Simon like 95% connecting the dots about Bitcoin’s hijacking but insisting that the small blocker position was the correct one… and that it was not the hijacked position or the position that favored the neutering of Bitcoin. It boggles the mind because he correctly identifies most of the compromised actors in the space but then employs magical thinking in terms of still holding the small blocker position. Really disappointing and I expected Simon to be smarter than this. Very strange.

@im_uname Socially as well as financially there is a strong reward to announce early. You just demonstrated that by foreshadowing some idea you're brewing. You announced early because it's very satisfying to the human mind.

all decentralized consensus systems need some way to reward information published earlier as opposed to later, even if the system is otherwise objective. unfortunately first seen is a particularly bad way to do that, likely maximizing chance of disagreement for the same security.

This deserved more attention. keepandroidopen.org

Worrying. Been seeing their posts for a while and it's just an enthusiastic user.

@kzKallisti My previous machine had 128GB. My current has 64GB because I don't need more 🤷‍♂️

I anticipate my next hardware purchase to be sometime around the year 2030. My next machine will definitely have at least 1TB RAM.

@monsterbitar The chip system isn't immune from this. The expectation of changes makes the number of vigilant eyes quite small, even. Amplifying the issue further Social games are a weakness, easy to overwhelm with numbers. Hiring people to disrupt may become a thing when BCH gets bigger.

An interesting thing I learned from this, is that "taproot kinda got through because we were tired of fighting". I think that's a massive failure if that is the case. The cost of freedom is eternal vigilance. I wasn't there for taproot (already moved on), but remain vigilant.

@TheDesertLynx Oh, yes. The $5 to $50 fees did absolutely happen.

@FloweeTheHub Well as long as we're on the same page about history

Sorry if it offends anyone, but BTC is the "real Bitcoin," whatever that means. No, it doesn't resemble original Bitcoin, Satoshi's vision (not you creg), but the Bitcoin of today (sadly) most resembles the Bitcoin I remember from back in the day. For a whole year-and-a-half Bitcoin had congested blocks, high fees, and Replace-By-Fee, making 0-conf transactions infeasible. It was this way for 18 months as the undisputed Bitcoin, before Bitcoin Cash ever forked off. Bitcoin Cash, SV, even eCash are "throwback" forks, and they do resemble the original Bitcoin vision more closely. But they aren't "real Bitcoin" in my opinion. If they are, if they want to say they started in 2009, then they have to admit their coin was slow, expensive, congested, and with reversible unconfirmed transactions for 18 months. Might just have to admit the truth: Bitcoin kinda sucks these days, and anything else you're using is something else.
