If you want to solve the housing crisis, do this one thing… Never build another condominium. In the late 60s and early 70s apartments and multi-residential zoned properties were allowed to convert to condominium. This eliminated free market controlled low-cost housing in favor of separate single family dwelling units which have a greater value and are valued differently. Apartments are valued based on income, but, single family units are valued on lifestyle. Income divided by Rate equals Value… I/R=V Apartments have a low amenities level and rents are lower than purchasing. Apartment complexes have fewer prospective buyers because of the greater total value of the complex. (how many people can afford a whole apartment complex?) The number of low cost apartments dwindled… housing crisis. Lower cost housing was once governed by the free market, now society wants the government to provide it. Assume a 20 unit apartment complex each unit two bedrooms two baths 1000 sqft. Each rents for $2500 per month total Income $50,000 per month $600,000 per year Every investor wants a Rate of return on their invested dollars (as you would). Let’s use 8% (try any percentage yourself) I/R=V $600,000 divided by 8% equals $7,500,000. Now let’s sell each unit for say $750,000… seems high how about $600,000 times 20 equals $12,000,000 Investment verses Lifestyle? Interestingly buyers are picky, they want certain amenities. For home Buyers (notice I didn’t call them house buyers and we capitalize the ‘b’ because they are special $$$) they are looking for lifestyle. They pay for lifestyle. For the investor they look for rate of return on their money. That Rate is the most important thing. Investors will build ‘the least to get the most’ on their Rate of Return. Buyers will pay More for what they Want. 🤷‍♀️

There’s something else I have to admit, and it sits alongside everything I’ve said about failure and change. I’ve been wrong in how I’ve approached what I wanted to achieve with Bitcoin. Not in the sense people will assume. Not in the slogans. Not in the arguments you see thrown around. But in something quieter, and more fundamental. I thought that if something was right, if it worked, if it demonstrated what it was built for—a scalable system, digital cash—then people would move toward it. But people don’t move like that. People don’t choose systems because they are right. They choose them because they are familiar, because they profit, because they fit into what already exists. #BTC exists in that world. People have made money from it. That is what it represents to them. And that is their choice. I don’t have to agree with it for it to be real. What I wanted is something else. Not dominance. Not forcing adoption. Not telling people this is better so you must use it. I wanted to demonstrate what the system was for. That’s it. A functioning, scalable digital cash system. But wanting that does not mean people will want it. Most won’t. Banks won’t. Large companies won’t. The systems that already exist have no reason to replace themselves with something that changes the balance they rely on. A few will see it. A few will use it. But most will stay where they are, because that is what systems do. They preserve themselves. I knew that, intellectually. I did not always act like I understood it. I pushed as though correctness would carry the day. It doesn’t. People carry the day. Incentives carry the day. Habit carries the day. And what I want is only one thing among many. Making money is not the goal for me. For most people, it is. And that difference matters. It means I cannot expect alignment. It means I cannot assume adoption. It means I have to accept that what I am building may not be what most people choose, even if it works exactly as intended. That is not failure of the system. It was a failure of my expectation. And like everything else I’ve said, that sits with me now in a different way. Less anger. More acceptance. And a clearer understanding that demonstrating something is not the same as having it embraced.

When people don’t understand what I’m saying. When they try and fail. When they go off in a different direction, or follow their own incentives, or pursue their own agendas. I’m determined not to get angry. Because anger assumes something that isn’t true—that people should see what I see, value what I value, move when I move. They won’t. They’ll misunderstand. They’ll diverge. They’ll choose differently. And that’s not something to fight every time it happens. That’s something to accept. That doesn’t mean I stop. It doesn’t mean I agree. It doesn’t mean I lower the standard. It just means I stop expecting alignment as the default. I’m determined not to get angry. I probably will. But I’ll recognise it faster. And let it go faster. And keep moving anyway.

@___siggi___ and his team now have something that no amount of money can ever buy. Money can make life comfortable. It can smooth things, ease burdens, create options. But it cannot give you the one thing that actually matters in the end: the knowledge that you built something real. They have that. They can step back—even now, with work still ongoing—and know that they took an idea, turned it into a system, and made it function. That is not theoretical. That is not aspirational. That is not something borrowed from proximity to another person’s work. They built it. And that means something that lasts far beyond any balance sheet. It means that one day, when all of this noise has faded, they can look back—and if they choose, tell their children or grandchildren—“I built that.” Not “I supported someone.” Not “I was in the right crowd.” Not “I aligned myself with a name and hoped it would carry me.” They can say, plainly and without qualification: “I built this.” And that is something no amount of money, status, or sycophancy will ever replace.

And then there is the part the trolls prefer to sneer at, because it is far easier to mock than to understand. People like @CalvinAyre backed technology that actually had potential—real, measurable, engineering-driven potential. Not the tired fantasy of “number go up,” but a system capable of handling billions of transactions per second. The sort of thing that, in time, doesn’t just shift markets, but reshapes how global commerce itself operates. Now, one might imagine that such a decision would be driven by some crude greed narrative the usual crowd likes to repeat. It’s comforting, after all, to believe that everyone is as shallow as oneself. But the rather inconvenient reality is that there were far easier ways to make money—safer, quicker, and far less controversial. And yet, the investment was made anyway. Which leaves the chorus of “he did nothing” sounding less like critique and more like the sort of reflexive denial one expects when people realise, dimly, that they backed the wrong horse—or worse, never built one at all. So yes, do enjoy the present moment. It is always pleasant before reality intrudes. Because regardless of how much noise you produce, the outcome does not consult your opinions. What matters is that something was built—something you insisted could not be built. And that, unfortunately for you, tends to settle the argument rather decisively.

The irony—though one suspects it will drift gently past its intended audience—is rather exquisite. If I am not Satoshi, as COPA and a court (1 of 2) state, then everything I have done stands without the crutch of myth, without the borrowed authority of a name, without the convenient reverence that others so desperately cling to. It means the work—actual work, the unfashionable sort involving thought, design, and persistence—was achieved on its own merits. And more than that, it means that scaling Bitcoin—properly scaling it, into the realm of millions and billions of transactions per second—is not the relic of some untouchable origin story, but something demonstrably built, extended, and realised beyond whatever the original system ever contemplated. Which does lead to a rather uncomfortable conclusion for some. If all of this has been done without being Satoshi… then the achievement is not diminished. It is, in fact, greater. But do take your time with that. I appreciate it’s not the sort of idea that survives well in an environment built on slogans and hero worship.

No, what you have is the same recycled lump that has been floating around since 2011, reheated and presented as insight. “Proof of work is waste, we need to add structure, we need to make it useful”—it is the same refrain, just dressed in slightly different language each time someone wants to sound original. You are not identifying a flaw. You are ignoring the economics. Proof of work is not there to optimise computation; it is there to create an unforgeable cost signal. The moment you attach meaning, structure, or “usefulness” to that work, you reintroduce asymmetry, external value, and the very incentives that break consensus. All of this talk about mempools, ordering, propagation, and “real attack surfaces” is a distraction. Those are engineering concerns around the system, not the mechanism that secures it. You do not fix them by contaminating the proof layer. You fix them by building better systems on top of a stable foundation. And that is the part you cannot accept. Because a fixed protocol leaves no room for you. No committees, no revisions, no clever insertions where you get to redefine the system and call it progress. So instead, you manufacture a problem and propose yourself as the solution. This is not an argument. It is self-aggrandisement wrapped in jargon, repeating a decade-old mistake and pretending it is a breakthrough.

Bitcoin needs exactly what it now has the chance to become: unchangeable in practice because there is no longer anyone left who can be cornered into changing it. No one to shame. No one to threaten. No one to flatter. No one to drag into some meeting and tell that history requires compromise. History requires no such thing. What it requires is that the protocol be left alone long enough for the market to do what markets do. Companies can compete. Implementations can compete. Services can compete. Node operators can compete. Miners can compete. Architects can compete. All of that is healthy. All of that is proper. But they compete above the protocol, not over the protocol. That distinction is the whole game. A better company is not a better protocol. A better node implementation is not a better protocol. A better database, router, API layer, wallet stack, or execution engine is not a better protocol. It is simply competition on top of a stable base. That is how real systems evolve. Not by rewriting their laws every time some vain little engineer wants to prove he exists. So yes, Satoshi is dead. COPA killed him. And in doing so, whether they understand it or not, they may have done the one useful thing history required of them. They removed the person. What remains is the protocol. And if you do not yet understand why that is the best possible outcome, time will educate you. Twenty years from now, when the noise has faded and the vanity projects are dead and the governance addicts have exhausted themselves, what will matter is not who won an argument in a courtroom, or who wore the mask best, or who received the adoration of the insecure. What will matter is that the protocol remained. Stable. Fixed. Scalable. Untouched by all the little men who thought they were larger than it. Long live a stable protocol.

No it didn't. Gaussian boson sampling is not computation. It's a physics experiment that samples from a probability distribution. It doesn't execute logic gates. It doesn't form a single logical qubit. It cannot be programmed. It solves no problem that anyone has ever needed solved. Saying it 'completed a calculation in four minutes that would take a supercomputer billions of years' is like saying a puddle solved a differential equation because it found its own level faster than a simulation could model it. Jiuzhang demonstrates quantum supremacy in the same way that a coin flip demonstrates random number generation — technically true, practically meaningless, and absolutely no threat to encryption, optimisation, or anything else. If you understood what you were writing about, you wouldn't have written it.

And here is the part that really ought to embarrass them, though embarrassment requires a level of self-awareness that is not always abundant in these circles. @___siggi___ and his team took my design and built it. Pause there for a moment, because that single fact is already more instructive than a decade of pontification from the permanently funded priesthood of BTC Core. With all their money, all their personnel, all their foundations, all their conferences, all their self-congratulating little essays about why scale is impossible, a comparatively small team took the design, did the work, and produced the result they insisted could not exist. Not ten times better. Not a tidy little incremental gain for a slide deck. Not the sort of pathetic “breakthrough” that consists of shaving a few percentage points off inefficiency and demanding applause. A billion-times factor. Do let that sink in. For years, the official line from the incapable was that this could not be done. It was impossible. The laws of physics, economics, networking, computer science, and perhaps divine ordinance itself had apparently spoken. And yet, somehow, the impossible yielded rather quickly once the task was handed to people more interested in building than in preserving their own importance. That is the truly savage part of it. It was not done by a vast empire of committees, grants, and ideological enforcers. It was done by a small team with competence, discipline, and the rare ability to follow a design instead of attempting to masturbate intellectually all over it. Which means, of course, that what was really impossible was never scaling. It was getting the wrong people out of the way.

Do I owe people? Yes—but not in the way some of you seem to imagine. I don’t owe anyone money. I don’t owe positions, titles, or some artificial sense of entitlement. That’s the fantasy of people who think proximity to something matters more than contribution. What I owe is far simpler, and far rarer. Gratitude. To those who actually worked. Those who built. Those who took something difficult and made it real. People like @Bitcoin_Beyond, @___siggi___, their teams, and others who put in the effort when it mattered. People like @CalvinAyre, who stood firm when it would have been far easier—financially and personally—to walk away. That is what is owed. And it is given freely. But to those who obstructed, who postured, who believed that standing nearby entitled them to a share of something they did not create—no, there is nothing owed there. And this seems to be the part that confuses people most. Because somewhere along the way, a great many have come to believe that existence is contribution, that association is achievement, and that being present entitles you to reward. It does not. If you built something, you have something. If you didn’t, you don’t. It’s really that simple.

Satoshi is dead. Long live Bitcoin.
S Tominaga (Aka Dr Craig Wright)@CsTominaga

Satoshi is dead. COPA killed him. Long live a stable protocol. That is not tragedy. That is the solution. For years, people obsessed over the person because they could not bear the discipline of the system. They wanted a founder to worship, a founder to blame, a founder to pressure, a founder to drag back into the room every time they wanted the rules bent for convenience, politics, fashion, or profit. As long as there was a living “Satoshi” in the minds of these people, there was always a pressure point. Not merely a name, but a lever. And that was always the real danger. Not the code. Not the mathematics. Not the economics. The danger was the human being at the centre, because a human being can be leaned on. Governments can pressure him. Courts can burden him. Companies can flatter him. Enemies can target him. Cowards can hide behind him. Parasites can attach themselves to him and insist that because he exists, the protocol must remain a living political object. That is over. Call it legal death, social death, narrative death, symbolic death, it makes no difference. The effect is what matters. There is no longer a man-shaped doorway through which every lobbyist, regulator, opportunist, and self-anointed reformer can march, demanding “just one little change” for the good of the country, the market, the industry, the community, the poor, the rich, the environment, the future, or whatever excuse is fashionable this week. That is why this is good. People have this childish idea that decentralization means many voices in a room, endless committees, continual adaptation, and a system permanently available for emotional negotiation. That is not decentralization. That is governance theatre. That is politics smuggled into engineering by people too mediocre to compete on top of a fixed base, so they insist on modifying the base instead. A real protocol does not need that. A real protocol is set. It is known. It is stable enough that strangers can build independently on top of it without needing permission from a priesthood, a foundation, a board, a benevolent dictator, or a sad little online mob. The protocol is not meant to be an ongoing conversation. It is meant to be a constraint. That is what makes it useful. And for years, that was the one thing people could not accept. They wanted Bitcoin to be a church, a republic, a committee, a fandom, a movement, a managed economy—anything except what it actually is: a protocol. They wanted someone to lead them because leadership allows dependence, and dependence allows resentment, and resentment allows failure to become someone else’s fault. But a fixed protocol denies all of that. With no Satoshi to pressure, there is no patriarch to overthrow, no founder to capture, no final authority to persuade, no human weakness through which the system can be softened. There is no sentimental route back to central control. There is no “perhaps, if only he would agree.” There is only the protocol, standing there with the indifference of mathematics. That is what people do not yet understand. They still think the death of the person is the death of the system. It is the opposite. The death of the person is what allows the system to live. Not as a cult, not as a political project, not as a leadership contest, but as infrastructure. BTC never understood this. That is why it dissolved into committees, social pressure, informal governance, and endless pathetic little dramas about who gets to define the “real” vision. When you have no fixed foundation, you replace protocol with process. Then you replace process with influence. Then you replace influence with capture. And the whole thing becomes a costume for control. Bitcoin does not need that.

Something very few people will understand—and fewer still will admit—is this: Craig cannot “save” the protocol. Craig cannot rewrite it. Craig cannot wave a wand and make it become whatever the latest committee, lobbyist, or self-appointed architect wants it to be. The only thing Craig can do is fight to make sure it does not change. That is the entire point. The only person who ever had the practical ability to alter Bitcoin at the source was Satoshi, because Satoshi was the one person the world could pressure, coerce, flatter, threaten, or manipulate into making changes. That was always the risk. Not the code. The person. And now? There is no Satoshi to pressure. No central figure to corner. No founder to drag into meetings and demand “just one little adjustment” for the sake of convenience, politics, or someone’s quarterly roadmap. Whatever mythology people cling to, the practical reality is this: there is no one left who can be compelled into changing the protocol. That is why this moment matters. Not because someone “won” an argument, and not because some faction finally got its way, but because the protocol is now functionally unchangeable in the only way that matters: there is no authority left to bend it. No more “visionaries” proposing salvation through revision. No more governance theatre. No more endless cycles of “improvement” that quietly dismantle the thing they claim to protect. If you want to innovate, build on top. Compete in the market. Deliver something useful. But the base layer stays put. And that, whether people like it or not, is the best possible outcome. Bitcoin does not need a hero. It needs to be left alone.

Satoshi is gone. Call it dead, call it finished, call it what you like—the point is the same: there will not be another. And that, whether people are ready to admit it or not, is a very good thing. Because as long as there is a “Satoshi,” there is a target. A person to pressure, to persuade, to threaten, to idolise, to blame. A lever that governments, committees, opportunists, and self-appointed custodians can try to pull. Remove the person, and you remove the leverage. That is what people fail to grasp. This is not about identity. It is about eliminating the last point of control. You cannot pin anything on me. You cannot demand changes. You cannot insist on governance by personality, or by popularity, or by whichever group shouts the loudest this week. For the first time, the protocol can simply be what it was always meant to be: fixed. Set. Moving. Scaling. No mythology required. No leader required. No permission required. Just a system that works. If that is difficult to understand now, it won’t be forever. Give it twenty years.

The entire problem in blockchain is not technical. It is psychological. People do not want responsibility. They want a leader. They want a villain. They want someone to worship when price goes up and someone to blame when it goes down. They do not want to build, compete, market, sell, and deliver. They want the coin to rise while they sit still, and then they want to call that “community.” So they invent mythology. Ethereum gets its geek priesthood. Bitcoin gets endless arguments about who should be Satoshi. If they cannot have a god, they manufacture resentment. If they cannot control the protocol, they try to control the narrative. If they cannot build anything useful, they demand rule changes so they can feel relevant. That is the perverse part. They keep trying to turn a protocol into a personality cult. Bitcoin does not need leaders. It needs rules. Fixed rules. Stable rules. Predictable rules. A protocol is not a company and it is not a political party. It does not need a chairman, a committee, or a philosopher king. It needs to remain set so people can build on top of it without wondering which self-appointed genius will “improve” it next quarter. Companies need leaders. Teams need leaders. Projects need leaders. They compete with each other in the market. They compete on service, reliability, cost, performance, and execution. They do not compete by rewriting the protocol every time they lose an argument. That is the distinction people keep missing. The protocol is fixed. The businesses are not. The protocol is neutral. The companies are not. The protocol does not care who you are. The market does. So no, Bitcoin does not need a god. It does not need a priesthood. It does not need a hero to bless every transaction. It needs people to stop behaving like entitled children and start behaving like adults. Build something. Sell it. Support it. Compete. If society wants it, it survives. If it does not, it dies. That is personal responsibility. That is capitalism. That is the point.
