@kurtwuckertjr Instead of I told you or I was right I rather hear more about human psychology of why this experiment can only fail if it doesn’t include all. BIP110=I know better. Won’t work anymore.

[VLAD HOSTS THE BEST PODCAST IN BITCOIN @Vladcostea]

I have no issue with BSV or the idea of experimenting with super large blocks on the Bitcoin design

Gigabyte blocks have been discussed since at least 2011 by guys like Dan Kaminsky – the same person who became the first to denounce CSW's claims in 2015

But I can't support something that was financed & built by people who tried to patent open source code, threatened developers with lawsuits, doxxed people who wanted to stay anonymous, and ultimately caused a big disservice to the entire space.

Buying BSV means pumping the bags of those who tried to destroy Bitcoin. They weren't happy to just compete on the free market, they wanted to exploit loopholes in the judiciary system to feed the need for validation of a sociopath (and possibly conduct a large scale nation state attack whose purpose is to get developers to leave).

I can't consciously support or endorse anything like this, even if CSW and Calvin got phased out by the community. They still hold a lot of coins and will benefit from any positive price action. Sometimes you gotta vote with your wallet.

And if you want to see big block experimentation on Bitcoin, BCH and the Thunder drivechain are much more interesting.

[S Tominaga (Aka Dr Craig Wright) @CsTominaga]

The genius of Common Sense was not in its attack on tyranny, but in its rejection of compromise. Before Paine, the American opposition had busied itself with pleading—arguing against Parliament’s excesses, debating the legal limits of taxation, petitioning the very institutions that sought to keep them bound. They framed their resistance as a demand for redress, an insistence on proper representation, a return to some imagined constitutional harmony. But Paine understood that men do not beg for freedom. They claim it. And a man who claims it does not appeal to the benevolence of his oppressor—he severs himself from the yoke entirely.

Paine shifted attention from Parliament to the Crown because Parliament was a symptom, not the cause. The crisis was not a matter of poor governance or excessive taxation; it was the fundamental contradiction of monarchy itself. Kings rule not by reason but by force wrapped in ceremony, power disguised as tradition. To focus on Parliament’s policies was to quibble over details while ignoring the iron foundation of subjugation. It was monarchy, not ministry, that made America’s servitude inevitable. And so long as Americans saw themselves as subjects, they would never be sovereign.

His analysis shattered the illusion that the colonies could negotiate their way to liberty. Before Common Sense, many believed in reconciliation, in the idea that Britain could be persuaded to return to fairness. Paine demolished this notion. He showed that Britain’s interests were irreconcilable with America’s, that submission and domination were not temporary conditions but the nature of the system itself. A government built on hereditary rule was an insult to the rational mind, a mockery of justice. To remain loyal to the Crown was not only to accept oppression but to surrender one’s self-respect. Common Sense made the alternative obvious: not a return to negotiation, not an adjustment of laws, but an entirely new order—an independent republic, governed by reason, bound by nothing but the consent of free men.

The effect was immediate and profound. Before Paine, the American cause was a movement of resistance; after Common Sense, it became a movement of creation. Men who had hesitated, who had justified their reluctance with appeals to loyalty or tradition, now saw clearly: the choice was not between different kinds of British rule but between freedom and subjugation. Paine did not introduce a new idea; he stripped away the excuses men used to deny the truth. He made it impossible to remain in the middle. Common Sense did not persuade—it exposed. And once exposed, the weakness of the Crown and the absurdity of allegiance could no longer be ignored.

The revolution was no longer a plea for rights. It was a demand for self-determination. A man who accepts his own sovereignty does not ask for permission to be free. He declares it.

Wish it was that easy. Bitcoin is a reflection of culture.

Bitcoin culture is rotten

dethrone your kings, unseat your high priests, cast out your false prophets

burn it all down 🔥

3/3 might have turned out differently, but for a cash system to work, trust is needed (for now).

Why or why not, would you trust #BCH?

Does #BitcoinCash need “Trust, but Verify 2.5”, or is initial trust disappearing in society?

#Freedom #FreeRoger #CashTokens

[Jan Angermair @JanAngermair]

To easily grok the difference in ethos between #BTC and #BCH, consider these two terms:

#BTC = “Don’t trust, verify”

#BCH = “Trust, but verify”

#BTC is the reply to an unjust system. Fed up, we don’t trust you anymore. All verified on chain, by anybody.

[Jan Angermair @JanAngermair]

2/3 #BCH is one reply to #BTC, for implementing a hierarchy in ownership (RBF).

We don’t want those that have more gold, to overrule those that have less. We want the freedom to transact, with minimal fees, for everybody.

Now, if big blockers wouldn’t have trusted, things

@FreeRogerVer had his attorney-client privilege destroyed by the FBI. @TracyAThurman explains the law fare against Americans could be coming for us next and would like to see help from in the incoming administration.

@ChrisBlec Could be a metaphor for the peoples voice to grow stronger.

He’s not doing that with the support in his campaign to those that oppose that voice.

@FloweeTheHub @bchautist Still the 90s were a lot of fun. I figure this in between time will be much faster. What didn’t we do then, that would be a good lesson for the metamorphosis into AI today?

Retaining or rediscovering a medium between people, that AI does not yet, or cannot have access to?
