@JoeNakamoto CIA can't seem to hire good talent anymore

went on a bit of a rampage about the adam back is satoshi b*llocks. why do "journos" do this every bear market? it's tedious at best, but also very dangerous

@udiWertheimer I'm in favor of the 2nd Amendment. Personal nuclear weapons for everyone.

bitcoin maxis are ecstatic about the idea of iran using bitcoin to evade sanctions and fund their nuclear missile program but if you use your bitcoin to pay for wizard jpegs you are AN ENEMY OF THE NETWORK

@idobitcoin2 Bitcoin, like Christ, is an obviated conclusion. Given all evidence and experience, it is the only possible answer.

I have noticed that a lot of Bitcoiners are some form of Christians. Even if they do not follow Christianity, a lot of them believe in god. I believe in family, values, and morals but I am not religious or believe in god. Am I an outlier? Do you guys believe in god?

The most fundamental currency in the universe is energy. We're spending energy to purchase security enforced by thermodynamic law (as opposed to man-made law). Bitcoin is not only the sole neutral option for Iran, but it is also the only logical conclusion; since 1944, the Bretton Woods Accord constrained the development of the global free market, hobbling any forward progress that such a unified currency would otherwise provide. The old monetary standard has reached its zenith; we must now transition our efforts to a truly independent money, which can only be enforced by natural law.

@robertgraham The article is painfully devoid of any technical understanding or review. Gmax was even recommended directly, but was not contacted.

Hi. Professional C/C++ programmer here. The open-source code I can find written by Adam Back and Satoshi Nakamoto don't look remotely similar. Back's code looks typical of academic Unix programmers who also hack their code to run on Windows. Satoshi code was written by a professional Windows programmer who also wrote for Unix. Stylistically, they look nothing alike. There's not enough time between 2005 when I can find the newest Adam Back and January 2009 when Satoshi published Bitcoin/0.1 to account for the change. Both are perfectly competent programmers, but stylistically, they are completely different. The NYTimes tried to compare their English language in posts/emails. I'm compare their C/C++ language in their open-source code. The NYTimes merely points out they both use C++ as if that's another corroborating detail, when the actual code seems to disqualify Adam Back.

@JohnCarreyrou Stylometry is one of the first things you learn to fool in this arena, sir. Shame on you for even attempting to violate someone's privacy like this anyway.

The mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous inventor of Bitcoin, has remained unsolved for 17 years. Not anymore. Read my 18-month investigation to find out who Satoshi really is. nytimes.com/2026/04/08/bus…

@theAuntieAngie @AwakenedOutlaw Glory be. It couldn't be any other way.

I see X is very active today, and while I’m sitting back watching everything unfold, I’ll just say this… At first I thought it was white vs black. Then Rich vs Poor. Then Christian vs Jew. Then Gay vs Straight. Then Republican vs Democrat. Now I know the truth. It’s good vs evil. We are everywhere and so are they. 🥷⚔️🇺🇸

@Andrew_J_Howard Bitcoin works fine when the Internet goes down. We have our own networks of radio links and satellites.

"Bitcoin won't work if the internet goes down" Bitch, YOUR BANK won't work if the internet goes down.

@covie_93 Americans* you disgusting racist.

Seeing Black ICE agents doesn't sit right with my spirit.

Not sure where you get this taqiyya from — Islam's foundational text is heretical to both the Old Testament and the New, and even the most reliable of its many authors are 2-300 years removed from events it describes. Here's how the Quran describes Abraham, in Surah Ali 'Imran 3:67: “Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim Hanifa and he was not of Al-Mushrikun.” Mohammed spent years trying to design Islam and gather followers yet gives no prophecy, and despite finally finding some success after adopting some of their religious practices, his cult of crimes against Mosaic Law share nothing in common with the Word of God, directly rejecting it in favor of deceit, conquest, and slaughter. He is a liar, a thief, and a fraud.

@RobertBurns82 Of course you know that Christians, Jews and Muslims trace their origins to the God of Abraham(the patriarch in Genesis).They are strictly monotheistic at core(one God, creator of the universe),revere many of the same prophets and draw from overlapping scriptures or traditions.

Just for reference, this is the preamble to the North Carolina state Constitution: We, the people of the State of North Carolina, grateful to Almighty God, the Sovereign Ruler of Nations, for the preservation of the American Union and the existence of our civil, political and religious liberties, and acknowledging our dependence upon Him for the continuance of those blessings, do, for the more certain security thereof and for the better government of this State, ordain and establish this Constitution.

@SlimWiggy @mattvanswol Governors are now demonstrating the same degree of coordination that Congress Democrats did throughout their two or three most recent propaganda pushes. After the Virginia Gun Bill, I'm finding fewer reasons to keep using Hanlon's Razor.

@mattvanswol NC is a target: x.com/slimwiggy/stat…

Well… it’s true. Democrat North Carolina Governor, Josh Stein, has formally recognized Ramadan in the state for February 17 – March 19, 2026. The declaration states Ramadan is to be: “commended in its observance to ALL residents…” This is absolutely insane…

@BasilTheGreat America is going to have to come liberate England at this point. How fitting.

🚨GREEN PARTY ANNOUNCE THEY WILL REMOVE CHRISTIANITY AS BRITAIN'S NATIONAL RELIGION IF THEY WIN Zack Polanski and Mothin Ali have declared that the Church of England will be denied established Religion status leaving us with no official state religion We all know why

@9mmsmg I used to train BJJ with this guy. Been arguing with him for months on a variety of issues. Sad to see.

Never seen someone break an arm that badly with almost no reaction.

@bifive_ @creynoldsnc It's when the currency transitioned to fiat. We've been redistributing wealth in ever-increasing amounts since 1913 — we reached the peak of the Laffer Curve already, so now wealth extraction takes place by inflating the money supply.

Elect more Democrats, give them trifectas, and they will get great shit done.

@MarkFriedenbach @1440000bytes @4moonsettler Super dope — I too lost all my Bitcoin in a tragic boating accident. Is this the same nanotechnology company that will be building our orbital ring?

@martindale @1440000bytes @4moonsettler Eric, I love and respect you. I enjoyed the time that we worked together at Blockstream. But we haven’t talked in years. I exited in 2021, and I’ve been putting all my efforts and resources into the nanotechnology company I am running now.

So BIP 360 does nothing to address QC concerns and everyone is celebrating the BIP document being merged into the repository

@WalkerAmerica I can confirm that @PeterSchiff is accumulating Bitcoin. He's very clever, but not clever enough — future Governments will know all about his stash.

Peter Schiff accepts Bitcoin as payment. He doesn’t accept gold or silver. This should tell you everything you need to know.

Listen up, you fucking idiots. Bitcoin is humanity's last chance to shed the shackles of Central Banking. Without it, we are doomed to suffer under one Government or another, as they will be forever subject to the power wielded by those that issue the currency. There is no playing around anymore. There is no time for bullshit games or popularity contests. The enemy is very real, very present, and very active. Bitcoin needs you. Show up.

@MartyBent This looks suspiciously similar to the NYA list.

This list lacks serious bitcoiners.

@jgarzik I feel like the silver is worth selling now, if only to buy a few more sats.

What will archaeologists think, when they dig up my house a thousand years from now? 🤔
