Bitcoin is the first and largest Public Global Payments Infrastructure with no bank dependency, central issuer, or counter party risk. Available to anyone.














BIP110 fanatics are angry I’m spending time mogging their malicious fork. We’re one of the largest corporate holders of bitcoin in the world and we own the largest bitcoin media company in the world. We’re a meaningful economic node and we’re going to defend our asset. We don’t consent to you changing Bitcoin. After 14 years in Bitcoin this is not the first or second or third time we’ve had to squash malicious take over attempts… This is the true origin of toxic maximalism. The mogging will continue until you fork off and find out.

December 9, 2010. A user asks Satoshi Nakamoto why Bitcoin shouldn't just allow 64 or 128 bytes of "arbitrary data" in a transaction. His answer, verbatim: "I also support a third transaction type for timestamp hash sized arbitrary data. There's no point not having one since you can already do it anyway. It would tell nodes they don't need to bother to index it." Read the design spec inside that answer. Small. Standardized. Not indexed by nodes. Bitcoin Core shipped that exact spec in March 2014. It's called OP_RETURN. #Runes lives entirely inside OP_RETURN. One runestone per transaction, prunable, zero UTXO bloat, full market fees. #Ordinals pays the same toll through witness space. The only gatekeeper Satoshi ever wrote into the system was the fee. Both pay it. Now read BIP110. It proposes to reject the exact transaction class Satoshi said he supports, from the channel built to his own spec. That is not enforcing Satoshi's design. That is reversing it. And we already ran this experiment. In this same December 2010 thread, miners holding double digit hashrate publicly refused to filter non-standard transactions. Satoshi's response was not a crackdown. It was the quote above. Fees settled this in 2010. Fees are settling it again in 2026. Source: satoshi.nakamotoinstitute.org/posts/bitcoint…






We were here before Zohran. We will be here long after Zohran. Little Italy will NOT be erased.







Bitcoin is a distributed system. This is often frustrating for traditional investors, especially successful ones, who are still learning. The fiat world relies on good people doing good things (who sometimes don't). Bitcoin is not a company. It's is not an industry. And there is no management. It is a money system with a set of rules. And that's a GOOD THING.
