Everyone gets bitcoin at the price they deserve

90 minutes ago, @BarefootMining found block #938903. As part of constructing and mining their own block using DATUM, they also signaled readiness for activation of a soft fork. They did this entirely independently of their pool. OCEAN is designed such that miners can perform the full spectrum of mining, and actually take a direct role in coordinating network upgrades. That includes constructing their own block templates and deciding when, and whether, to signal. OCEAN restores agency to miners. Back in 2017, Slush Pool let miners express their preference during the SegWit activation debate: nasdaq.com/articles/slush… OCEAN takes that one step further by reducing the pool’s role even more. Through DATUM, miners construct their own templates and embed their own signal directly in the blocks they mine. Further still - any blocks they find get broadcast directly to the network without needing to pass through a middle man. Fork proposals are part of Bitcoin’s maturation. We encourage miners to study BIP-110, form their own view, and signal accordingly. Your hash. Your choice.

Ross Ulbricht (@RealRossU) didn’t sell drugs—he built an anonymous, free, and open platform on Tor called Silk Road. Silk Road sold apparel, art, books, collectibles, computer equipment, electronics, herbs, and yeah—drugs. But according to friends who used it, Silk Road was arguably the safest way drugs were ever sold: no street violence, no shady deals, and zero fentanyl. Everything was tested and peer-reviewed, like an Amazon for substances. For this, the government gave him two life sentences without parole for nonviolent charges, including money laundering—just for using Bitcoin. They relied on questionable evidence and made him an example. Two FBI agents who investigated Ross? Well, a few years went to jail themselves for fraud and stealing Bitcoin from the Silk Road investigation... So, even if you think Silk Road was problematic, you have to admit that the punishment was wildly disproportionate. This isn’t just about Ross or a marketplace—it’s about government overreach and the state’s power to crush individuals with vague laws. Today, I’m so happy to hear Ross is free. I’ve met his mom several times—her fight for Ross’s life is an incredible story of a mother’s love. Over the past few months, I’ve been emailing with his wife, Caroline, to ensure he was fairly represented in The Big Bitcoin Book and that they got a copy. As a developer who has worked with Bitcoin for years, this always felt personal. I didn’t build a marketplace, but it could have been me—or any of my friends—targeted by the government. Ross’s case was a warning shot at innovation, and I’ve always felt connected to him because of that. Justice came far too late, but today I’m grateful Ross is finally free.

@UTXOalien @TurluteUttu @Public_Pool_BTC Just set datum mining to non-pooled

@TurluteUttu @Public_Pool_BTC Yeah but if u hit a block, you get a few dozen sats instead of 3 whole Bitcoin

Why you should mine to a self-hosted instance of @Public_Pool_BTC on your own node, a thread 🧵👇

@investitude @_k3tan 2016 blocks

Worthy of a Nobel IMO. My understanding: For every 2160 blocks, the ideal time is 21600 minutes or 2 weeks. An adjustment occurs for the next 2160 blocks: New difficulty = old difficulty × ( ideal time / actual time) If it takes more time to create 2160 blocks, difficulty lessens and vice versa.

The difficulty adjustment is just straight up genius.

"I don't even watch the price any more. I just go by whatever the current FUD is. We've done quantum computers, tulips 2.0, big companies will buy too many bitcoins and take over the project. Now it's the part where they tell us self custody is too difficult. Next they'll start saying it uses too much energy and that we need to switch to PoS. They might even drop the bombshell that Bitcoin isn't really scarce because anyone can just make a clone of Bitcoin. Heck it'll have better features and probably 'flippen' Bitcoin."
