@DjokerNole Not too bad! 😂

Non mi interessa di quando Satoshi Nakamoto vincerà il Nobel dell'economia.

È quando vincerà il Nobel per la pace che avrete capito veramente Bitcoin.

As a (hopefully) temporary measure, run Knots. I strongly recommend not upgrading to Core v30.

Whether you try to discourage something, or do nothing, or try to encourage it -- or seem to do these things -- each of these actions or non-actions sends a signal, often a much more powerful signal than the actual security of your effort warrants.

Think about locks on your door. Would they stop a skilled and determined robber? No. Do they stop most unwanted visitors? Yes. Most predators just want dinner, and they will choose the least risky prey they can find.

Since this debate mostly lies in the area of the mempool and relay policy, it mostly isn't about strong security, it's more about the locked-door kind of security, or even just about traffic signs that guide people to the proper place. A strong security solution would obviously be much better, but the alternative to a strong security solution is not to do nothing -- it is to fall back on other methods. Methods that may be weak but that send a signal. The fact that you can't stop a determined and skilled attacker in this case should not stop us from trying to stop most of the behavior that could harm node operators individually or the network collectively.

@alessandromazza @BlockChainCaffe How can you possibly suggest a closed-source wallet? As far as I know the source code is on a GitHub private repo.

@federico_rivi Infrastructure inversion è uno dei migliori talk di A.A. Lo conosco quasi a menoria. Hai imitato anche il fischio del modem?

Once you realize that slavery was never about owning a person but about owning the fruits of their labor, you will understand why Bitcoin was created.

The life of a Bitcoiner:
You go around the world telling people that 1+1=2 and that everyone can benefit from learning math, but people are just laughing and saying they don’t need to learn math since they have central math experts in the government.

As of today, $100 of gold weighs less than a $100 bill

$100 USD bill = 1 gram
$100 of gold = 0.983 grams

The US no longer issues new bills larger than $100.

This means gold is actually a more efficient means of transferring value in the physical world than USD bills.

Buying Bitcoin with fiat is like buying water with sand in the Sahara desert. It’s the best trade in history.

When you use AI to replace every mention of "our democracy" with "our bureaucracy," everything starts making a lot more sense.

@MyLordBebo The Russian flag is missing

Tacker: Pavel Durov left Russia when the government tried to control his social media company, Telegram. But in the end, it wasn’t Putin who arrested him for allowing the public to exercise free speech.

Here’s our interview from several months ago:

@nikzh I agree but your statement is "decentralization is diversifying" and my reply was a counterexample.

@satyanadella The next step will be to buy the rest of OpenAI shares for peanuts.
