"Once you’ve been to Cambodia, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking."

One of the biggest divides between self-styled “builder” crowd (aka Butt-hurt big-blockers), & the “laser-eyed Maxis” is the evident gap in seriousness with which each group approaches #bitcoin.
For the latter, #bitcoin is clearly one of - if not the - most important movements in the world today, & we therefore approach any change or disruption with extreme caution & seriousness.
The former group, in all of their conduct, whether it is dancing about in wizard costumes, joking about “breaking #bitcoin,” making cringe-worthy memes, writing JPEGs to the blockchain, etc. have shown that they simply do not take #bitcoin seriously enough for me to trust them with anything.
I am not opposed to changes to #bitcoin, but these changes must be approached in a serious way by serious people.
When the people proposing changes conduct themselves in a childish, embarrassing manner like @LayerTwoLabs, it makes me instantly want to reject anything & everything they propose. This childish nonsense belongs in crypto. #Bitcoin has grown up and left these childish things behind. Its next steps are corporate and nation-state adoption, reforming energy grids, & bringing down central banks, not monkey JPEGs & issuing shitcoin side chains. If the latter is all you aspire to, you don’t belong here, child.
I’m not going to trust petulant children to upgrade the most important technological development in my lifetime.
#bitcoin deserves better than these clown wizards.

#Bitcoin is currently functioning how markets are supposed to work.
A bunch of dodos raised a large amount of fiat which they used to purchase #bitcoin. They then leveraged those holdings in mal-investment ponzis which led to a sweeping liquidation cascade as...
- Dear Mark Ruffles, calm dowm! I'm sure you have never read the Brazilian Constitution, but I can assure you it's nothing like the complicated Hulk scripts you have to memorize:"AHGFRR". Read it and you'll find out I'm not only respecting it, but protecting Brazil's rule of law.
Please stop using "real name" to refer to your passport name. Your government doesn't get to define who you "really" are. If you use a different name in most day-to-day interactions, that is your real name.
"Passport name", "legal name", "slave name" to be edgy are all fine.
Als Twitter een afspiegeling is van de maatschappij maak ik me echt zorgen.. links-rechts. Anti vax- pro vax. Echt waar. Waar is die fucking nuance. @pietur@rudybouma@JOR_ID@MartijnKonings@lientje1967 ik tag wat random mensen met bereik. Ik maak me zorgen…
