@MorchJosto Try flying over mountains that exceed the Cessnas ceiling.

MS Flight Sim 24. I flew a Cessna into a storm above the sea and this quickly became a horror game. Nope, nope and nope. Literally I noped out two seconds after this video ends. #PSVR2

I took a look at the pre-existing ecash project and it’s 1000% better and more honest than the crap you are proposing.

@GoingParabolic Can’t be taken by force, only by consensus.

Un Popular Opinion : The United States should take Satoshi's wallets through an escheatment process. Process (Escheatment): Financial institutions, businesses, and courts report and turn over unclaimed assets to state authorities after a mandatory dormancy period. Usage Examples: Common examples include dormant checking/savings accounts, uncashed payroll checks, stocks, dividends, insurance payouts, and safety deposit box contents. Legal Basis: It arises when a person dies without a will and without heirs (intestate), or when property is left abandoned/unclaimed for a set time.

@TomerStrolight Even Craig Wrights shitcoin didn’t seize Satoshi’s coins.

Satoshi didn't pre-mine Bitcoin, but there's nothing preventing Paul Sztorc from hardforking Bitcoin and seizing Satoshi's coins as an insider equivalent to a pre-mine.

@BTC_JEDI21 Future of money or ponzi that buys future of money, tough choice.

What's stopping you from selling all your Bitcoin for STRC and retiring tomorrow?

@parkeralewis They will print fiat until it dies, btc to 100M

How are you going to give universal high income if there are only 21 million bitcoin and you can't print money🤔there's a fundamental misunderstanding of both value and money here.

@TheDesertLynx Hackers being Nation State actors who monopolize high performance quantum.

The quantum computing threat will greatly harm Bitcoin, no matter how it's handled! 👀 There is a theoretical threat to cryptocurrency (and cryptography) posed by the existence of a powerful enough quantum computer, and whether or not that threat materializes over the next few years, the market believes that it will. Unfortunately, Bitcoin in particular is caught in a uniquely problematic position where no matter what happens it will be harmed. There are a couple of big options on which way to go when handling the quantum threat: 😱Option 0: Do Nothing It's not a realistic option, but it's possible that nothing changes in Bitcoin's codebase. Of course, what this means is a quantum attacker could eventually steal everyone's funds and destroy the network. Because of this, I don't view this as a realistic outcome. 🔒Option 1: Lock Coins The first option being proposed is implementing post-quantum addresses, and locking all addresses that don't migrate funds over. This prevents hacks and thefts, but has a disastrous cost: freezing people's money! 😱 The whole point of Bitcoin was money no one could censors or confiscate, but if the network just permanently freezes your coins because you didn't check the news in a while, this severely harms the reputation. 🕵️Option 2: Let Hackers Steal The other option is to just let users migrate to quantum-safe addresses, and let those who don't potentially lose their coins to hackers. In my opinion this is the best option, however it causes reputational damage to Bitcoin as "being hacked" and funds being stolen. But, the bigger problem is that there are potentially millions of Bitcoins, including Satoshi's, that could be stolen and dumped on the market! This does two things: it crashes Bitcoin's price, harming the "number go up" quality, and it also exposes just how many Bitcoins had been lost forever and were unable to be moved. That's the dirty secret: Bitcoin's market cap is likely significantly inflated, as it spreads demand across coins that for practical purposes don't exist in the market anymore. Once those coins get moved and come back on the market, it could cause a significant crash. Cryptocurrency is modern, living tech. Code changes, upgrades happen, nothing is permanent. But Bitcoin pretended this isn't the case, that tech can be perfect and immutable even without upgrades. Quantum computing is a threat all of crypto will face, and in my opinion will deal with just fine when the time comes. But it will shatter some of Bitcoin's core illusions.

Who needs layer 2 when there’s NASDAQ.

Cheers to the founder that figured out that ordinals are really just worth their padding in sats. Drinking a Coke Zero to toast you.

@ercwl The $100 peg will shit the bed and he won’t sell a single sat to maintain it.

@MajorianBTC Just stop, without rollback protection and an emergency difficulty adjustment or proof of work change your fork is D.OA. Luke wants to change the POW so it will totally be a new shitcoin if you go that route.

Important to note that in a chain split scenario, however likely, the BIP-110 chain has an immense game-theoretic advantage over the spam chain.

@simpleminingio How do you meet the minimum participation requirement?

The IRS doesn't care if you buy Bitcoin. But they might care if you buy mining hardware. Scenario A: Buy $50k of Spot BTC. Result: You own $50k of Bitcoin. Your taxable income stays the same. Scenario B: Buy $50k of ASICs. Result: You own a machine producing Bitcoin AND you potentially unlock a $50k write-off against your income. You are acquiring the asset and reducing your tax bill in the same year. This is why business owners mine. It’s not just a tech play. It’s a tax play.

@notgrubles We’re going to end up with big blocks for quantum, mark my words.

It took Coinbase eight years to add Lightning support after Brian tried solving scaling with big blocks.

@matteopelleg @BankofAmerica @SoFi What’s the point of depositing if you can’t withdraw or spend? Cashapp is better.

If I can’t deposit bitcoin into my @BankofAmerica account by the end of 2026, i will move to @SoFi

@callebtc Do you trust NIST?

If Bitcoin had no block size limit, we would have had post quantum cryptography already yesterday. Like pretty much the entire rest of the cryptography world. People are just post hoc rationalizing why we don't need it. They're trying to fight FUD, instead of having scientific arguments. (Thomas Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions)

@dcurtis More like early 2000’s tech, but that’s cutting edge for space. The flight computers are from the 787 using the chip from the G3 iMac.

Tonight’s Artemis II launch to the moon is going to cost every American about $12 each. An Artemis launch costs $4.1 billion, is 95% single-use, and is largely based on technology from the 1980’s. It’s insanely overpriced, but I’m willing to pay $12 to watch a rocket take humans back toward the moon. Can’t wait.

@BuzzPatterson .93 Mach

Mach 1.1. 😎

My son is convinced that I’m Satoshi, and I can’t prove to him that I’m not. I still use two spaces after a period, and lose my keys all the time.

@Cobratate Except class.

I have everything that everybody else can’t have.

10% of the network is BIP-110 nodes but they don’t have a single lightning channel open. 😂
