It's quite literally unbelievably fast, cheap, and easy to spin up an infinite number of “legit” seeming accounts on X with registration dates from 10 years ago, AI cartoon profile pics, coherent bios, then use these clusters of accounts to echo a single narrative. It could all be operated by a small team. Most of the content can even be human-written. You can literally print a “movement” around your politics online. It is a social Sybil attack.

@gimmeyawallets @btcbenchmark 👍🏻

@btcbenchmark This is exactly whats going on lately. It’s very easy to just spin up bunch of aliases and make fuzz about a narrative of one’s choice.

If only you knew how bad things really are. 3 accounts 1 admin. 1000 nodes 1 admin. Sybil attack on your consciousness. The social layer is the real vulnerability.

@achydenius @btcbenchmark True

@btcbenchmark People don’t understand the extent of this phenomena. Verification badge doesn’t mean anything. If someone is motivated enough, they can spin up bunch of account to echo a single narrative and make it look like a real movement. It’s not even expensive.

Kannattaa varoa, minkä mielikuvan X feed antaa bitcoin-verkon käyttäjistä!

Inside a Bitcoin Heat Mine on the Russian Border 🇫🇮 ⛏️ ⚡️ FULL DOCUMENTARY

THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY!!! Been working like a dog for a launch this week.. I'm trying to be compact here... bear with me: Let's wrap up the last 6 months. Since the first BTCHEL event last year, we have: • Upgraded the BTCHEL Hub from a temporary pop-up shop to a permanent and versatile physical space for local bitcoiners. You're welcome to check it out on Fridays when we have open doors and free entry! • Promoted Kaisu Hyvärinen, an experienced event producer as the company's COO and hired new talent; Rachel Geyer, the chairman of European Bitcoin Energy Association, to lead a new event we're launching. Welcome to our team, Rachel! • Raised a seed stage funding round of 100,000€ on a million-euro valuation for the company. We now have two prominent Finnish bitcoin mining companies on board around the year. Now, what's next for 2026? Today marks the 200-day countdown to this year's BTCHEL WEEK and thus we start to push the momentum for real. We launch a new, european wide bitcoin mining industry event similar to what they have in the US... it's about time we have our own in Europe. It's called the EUROPEAN MINING SUMMIT 2026 or EMS in short. EMS is the must-attend industry event for anyone with an interest in bitcoin mining in Europe. Miners, hardware manufacturers, hosts, pools, power plants and the whole energy sector. Our goal is to bring as much hashrate to Europe as possible. This has a tremendous impact for Europe's energy independence, abundance and decarbonisation. Now that we have our trademark industry event where we serve our corporate clients, we can now double down on HC cypherpunk and bitcoin pleb culture at BTCHEL2026. We are committed to staying true to the community ethos at the main event, so be prepared to see the most audacious and unapologetic bitcoin event in September. For BTCHEL, our vision is the actualization of the global Bitcoin Standard, and we are taking care of the Nordics by becoming the most influential Bitcoin media in our region. For that reason, we are sponsoring two other bitcoin conferences here this year: Bitcoin Copenhagen on March 21st and Bitcoin Symposium in Stockholm on April 24th. We want to show support to different initiatives accelerating the local bitcoin adoption in the Nordics with us. I know the market sentiment for bitcoin has not been the best lately, but I'm more bullish than ever. Bear with us through 2026 🧡

The Nordic Bitcoin conference is accepting volunteer applications! 🔥 This is a great opportunity to learn more about Bitcoins status in the Nordics and help in making Helsinki the hub for Bitcoin knowledge and development in the Nordic region. Welcome! 🙏

We at FBA are extremely happy to include DMND as our partner and sponsor to support our key activities in Finland in ensuring a bright future for our country that is evolving around Bitcoin!

Does your city have a bitcoin hub?

Tässä signaalia kaiken kohinan keskelle.

🇪🇺Today, EU gov'ts rejected changes to mandatory backdoor #ChatControl & anonymity-destroying age checks. EU ambassadors are set to approve this soon. ℹ️#councilpositions" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">patrick-breyer.de/en/posts/chat-… 📢Our protest isn't loud enough yet. Help change that: fightchatcontrol.eu

Tuntuu että massavalvontaa yritetään nyt puskea joka tuutista: Chat Control, digieuro ja nyt tämäkin. Yksityisyys on ihmisoikeus ja vapaan yhteiskunnan kulmakivi.
