Important: I've also devised a way that some can *invest* in this hardfork, now, before the fork-date, in August: - Satoshi has 1.1M coins in the so called "patoshi" pattern. - We will be manually reassigning some of these coins (fewer than half) to investors today. This will no doubt be a controversial decision. But I think it is necessary, and in fact, ideal: - The pure fork, is a problem, because it leaves collaborators with no way to "get involved" ahead of time. - This leaves the fork a "zombie project" -- until it launches. - Thus, it is harder to ship the fork as a "finished project" -- with all of the work completed in advance. - Ironically, that would centralize the project, and encourage dev-capture. To avoid seedy grifter-style investment-promotion activities, I mostly do not mention this. But it is possible, for high-quality investors (ie, accreditted+). Plus, it must be disclosed, for full transparency.

🇮🇷 Ghalibaf is back posting Bloomberg terminal codes and calling US Treasuries "vibes all the way down." He flew to Islamabad to negotiate the end of a war, came home with no deal, and is now posting financial commentary with Bloomberg syntax This war is a comedy show on so many levels

i'm not satoshi, but I was early in laser focus on the positive societal implications of cryptography, online privacy and electronic cash, hence my ~1992 onwards active interest in applied research on ecash, privacy tech on cypherpunks list which led to hashcash and other ideas.
