One understated reality of what Trump has done: He basically just nuked his Senate majority for the next six months. Rs have a 53-47 hold on the Senate. - Sen. Tillis is retiring and already acting like an independent. - Sen. Cassidy now has no reason to play ball. - Sens. Murkowski and Collins have long been willing to break with POTUS. - Sen. Cornyn will have to navigate the runoff, but win or lose next Tuesday he comes out of that doing whatever he wants. All the sudden, a 53-47 Senate majority is a 48-47 majority with five live swing votes.

The inherent conflict with stateless internet money is that the internet itself is basically a series of monitored, privileged access gates operated by state compliant entities. Nothing you do within those confines is inherently free nor impervious to interference. As BTC's market cap grows beyond nontrivial size, the incentives for the state to clamp down grow accordingly.





🚨NEW: VEGAS 2026: THE DOJ’S DEVELOPER EXEMPTIONS In one of the most anticipated talks of this year's Bitcoin Conference, Todd Blanche promised developers would no longer be targeted – with an important caveat: Once a developer knows that their software is being used for criminal activity, the DOJ could send them to prison for decades to come.


Bitcoin is actually the best form of money, but who's keeping track. Why peg your token to a currency that central and commercial banks can dilute and debase, where your transactions can be arbitrarily blocked, and where third parties can freeze your money? No thanks.



what scene do you consider a masterpiece?
