Stop anthropomorphising AI!
Gemini 3.1 Pro:
"the user wants me to balance empathy with candor. I am a machine, I have no empathy. I will be candid about my lack of empathy. Good."
Bitcoin governance runs on game theory and the actions of a variety of self-interested actors.
It's amusing to see ignorant folks trying to use the game theory from a previous cycle to fight a new governance battle despite the conditions of the game being completely different.
For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years.
The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars.
It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city.
That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster.
POW hashing power consumption over longest chain is cost of verification against faking energy.
DLT Redundancy over P2P is cost of verification against faking (spamming/sybil) identities.
Purpose of exchange demands competitiveness in traits as TRUSTWORTHY unit of account, and store of value originating from steady FIXED supply as persistence of such competitiveness(durability).
Parker Lewis: "#Bitcoin’s logical end game is collectively as a store of value, medium of exchange and unit of account. That is the vision."

This year, I wish you less — less information, less food, less entertainment, less communication, less stimulation. You already have too much of all that, and it stands in the way of your serenity, health, sleep, and creativity. Merry Christmas! ☦️
