Ah screw it! Let's do this. Anti-coiners hating on coiners is at an ATH now. Let's document all the hate. Years from now, if we make it, coiners will come back to this account to weep tears of joy. However, if we don't make it, this account will become an extension of...

"Where are the servers of Bitcoin located?” - Prof Jiang

That single question from Jiang shows the misunderstanding immediately.

Bitcoin does not run on one company’s servers,

Bitcoin runs on a distributed network of nodes spread across the world, which is exactly why it is hard to censor, shut down, or control, plus the mining system on top of it to protect it with energy.

When someone frames Bitcoin like a centralized system, they are not critiquing Bitcoin as it is.

They are critiquing a version of Bitcoin that exists only in their own confusion.

@jonstewart He's right that the admin uses crypto tokens to grift....

but he's dreadfully wrong about Bitcoin, which is a powerful human rights tool for the powerless worldwide.

Would you be open to learn more about this conversation?

@jonstewart New level of domain ignorance from a guest

How about you get someone who uses Bitcoin next time, rather than an actor trying to build a secondary career by gaslighting it?

[Lyn Alden @LynAldenContact]

Let Jon Stewart know if you want a nuanced bitcoin expert on his show.

Like this post, and then comment on your favorite expert.

[Lyn Alden @LynAldenContact]

@jonstewart Big fan of your work Jon, for like 20 years.

But you could find better guests on this topic. More nuanced.

@PeterMcCormack Quoting the guy who referred to underbanked people as criminals (https://t.co/KdotxguC1X) and was funded by the government to undermine critics of mass surveillance (https://t.co/jq2wI1vj4U) is quite something.

[WikiLeaks @wikileaks]

On Nov 12, 2024, the University of Minnesota Press published the book "Cyberlibertarianism: The Right Wing Politics of Digital Technology", which opposes those critical of censorship and mass surveillance, including @Snowden, @GGreenwald and Assange.

The author, David Golumbia, who also wrote "The politics of Bitcoin: Software as Right-Wing Extremism", has previously received at least $80k in direct US government grants. UMN made no apparent attempt to fact check the book, which is now on the reading lists of two courses at the University of Southern California and Duke.

Why are Bitcoin haters so desperate to link Epstein with Bitcoin?

https://t.co/cmiundxRSS

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

Ben McKenzie dug through the Epstein files to expose how Jeffrey Epstein was instrumental to the rise of Bitcoin.

Epstein's involvement goes all the way back to 2011 — just two years after Bitcoin launched.

And his funding secretly saved the cryptocurrency from near collapse.

[Eric Wall @ercwl]

@mert the tiresome part about this dialogue is that ”omg the crypto scammers tried to do X to me”

bruh they’re scammers

those scammers are not substantially more part of the ”crypto industry” than Nigerian princes are members of the ”email industry”

fucking emailers man, they suck!

[Crypto Hate Log @cryptohatelog]

@mert He always hated crypto anyways. He is now using scammers as an excuse to double down on that hate.

Who exactly raised the topic of “crypto bailouts” and why? I’ve never heard anyone inside the industry talk about this so it seems suspicious, akin to Big Pharma running out a poll that “99% of people are against dying” and using that to lobby.

[Crypto Hate Log @cryptohatelog]

No one in crypto wants him released but if that happens, anti-coiners and short sellers will try to rewrite history by saying coiners were pleading for his pardon. Media publications will write outright lies about the crypto industry lobbying for him.

[Meltem Demirors @Melt_Dem]

if you watch what’s happening, someone is currently working overtime to manufacture consent around an SBF pardon

narrative rewrite being promoted with smaller accounts and propagated and spread by larger accounts

pardon by summer, mark my words

[Dan Spuller @DanSpuller]

If you have to invent a "bailout" that no one asked for just to get the polling numbers you want, it’s not data—it’s a push poll.

It’s not about measuring public opinion; it's about manufacturing a villain. Let’s stick to the facts, @davidshor.

The @BlockchainAssn and this industry are asking for market structure and #Clarity, not a handout.

Try again.

[Victor Ramirez @victoreram1]

@davidshor This is such a deep mischaracterization of the reality of the crypto issue so you can disregard these results.

The crypto industry never asked for a bailout. The dem framing is exceedingly generous and doesnt accurately reflect the pertinent issues being discussed in congress

[Haonan @haonan]

banks to congress: "if people can earn 3.5% on stablecoins, they'll pull $6.6 trillion out of our 0.1% accounts"

yeah. that's called competition

welcome to capitalism

never gorget that if you make a privacy protocol that actually works the glowies will come for u:

[Lyn Alden @LynAldenContact]

@GeorgeSelgin The good news is, they didn’t “turn Bitcoin into” anything, because bitcoin itself is unchanged during that time.

These are simply shifting narratives around a rather fixed protocol. In other words, the fiat system has shaped itself around Bitcoin.

[Nick Anthony @EconWithNick]

@intangiblecoins Unbelievable that his response to free people wanting to be free is "get out"... Actually... nevermind. That's completely believable.

[Autism Capital 🧩 @AutismCapital]

We said from Day One that Trump and family launching shitcoin after shitcoin was a TERRIBLE idea and would come back to bite them. Between TRUMP, MELANIA, WLFI, Barron's anon rugs, etc. they dumped on their voter base.

TRUMP coin and MELANIA are both down 95%+ from ATHs. They lured naive and unaware "patriots" (their voting base) who didn't know the first thing about Crypto into buying these worthless pieces of shit, not realizing they were about to become exit liquidity for the insiders.

Trump did all of this DAYS before he became President of the United States so he could have the cover of saying he never did it *while* President. It was completely unacceptable and unbecoming of a President. He literally used his voting base as exit liquidity. People who were not crypto native, and only bought in out of love for their President.

It was WRONG to do. This is not the behavior of a President. This is not the behavior of an actual leader.

This also applies to Javier Milei's shitcoin LIBRA which is down 99%. This also applies to every other celebrity shitcoin, all of which are nearly down 100%. It is bottom feeder scum behavior, and coming from the President and his family, it was and is especially egregious.

It was not right. And worst of all, it was unnecessary.

[Brian Harrington @BrainHarrington]

Ripple is the fucking worst

Their founder attacks bitcoin for no reason and now they won’t stand with crypto on forcing banks to fold to stablecoin yield

Genuine traitors
