In the Year

Knowledge that swims in a sea of red herrings.

@brockm No need to involve trust in everything.
We don’t need to trust in gravity, or that water will be wet today. Imagine if we needed to trust politicians to keep gravity stable.
BTC just moves money into the realm that doesn’t need trust.
Save trust for where it’s needed.

@saylor @BitcoinPierre Their access to the money printer could clog the blockchain with unlimited amounts of spam leaving no room for peer to peer money transfers.
It's hard to outspend someone with infinite fiat at their disposal.

@ProfBrianCox @andyburnham £2.8 million a year to fund Joddy Bank?
Bah! You could build nearly ten metres of HS2 bat nesting protection tunnel for that sort of money.

@asjwebley That’s 4% of the Bitcoin network dedicated to buttressing the fiat system, for another 2.1 years.
@saylor says he loves Bitcoin but acts to support its enemy, fiat.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@callebtc Still insulting us, “technically incompetent without exception”.
Reality shows I was technically competent before you were born.

As for “incel”, well, don’t make me laugh.

@CrewkerneGaz “On the Buses” was in black and white in our house. I always assumed the bus was red.

@BritishHodl No apostrophes in plurals.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@btcbenchmark The exact opposite is true.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@vijayselvamxo Such cogent arguments.
Why not toss in a few f-bomb laden insults about BIP110 supporters, like the majority of your fellow opponents do?

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@saylor @stephanlivera Bitcoin is a reservoir of pure, clean drinking water for a thirsty world.
Paying a distant miner a few dollars to allow 'users' to shit in it is obviously wrong. I'm flabbergasted that you can't see this, Mr Saylor.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@dotkrueger I’m on the side that explains, patiently, constructively and logically why BIP110 is a vitally important piece of maintenance, not the side that uses insults and threats to try and belittle their opponents.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@bsvsimp Or books _about_ him. #Faketoshi

@Rainmaker1973 If they made the thing a reasonable size it would be inherently easier to park.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@saylor @BitcoinPierre Not your (publicist’s) finest hour, IMO, Mr Saylor.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@NotFarLeftAtAll The rest of the world mines valuable Bitcoin with excess, ‘stranded’ energy.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@saylor @clarkmoody The fees go to the miners. The nodes get nothing, but have to pay for the privilege of storing other people’s non-monetary-use spam.
Come on @saylor, it’s not hard to understand. Can I store my photo library on Strategy’s servers for free? No, I thought not.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@HodlHudge @Jethroe111 If it’s your treasure, store it yourself.
You may have bribed the miner with a dollar or two but they’re not the ones expected to look after it for life, nodes are.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@Kaneda02Bitcoin @callebtc “What’s wrong…”
You ask the question they can’t answer.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@udiWertheimer I’m not storing spam, so my nodes will go offline.
It’s not much, but it’s not ‘simply nothing’.

[In the Year @intheyearapp]

@JoeConsorti Not quite, every node on earth is _not_ forced to store that junk forever. My nodes will not be storing it, they'll be being switched off if BIP110 fails.

@wtogami Are you getting older?
