David Freeman Lot of other thing which I cannot say but feel or maybe scared to get cancelled out

Absolutely correct

Bitcoin was best in 2015 when I started researching about it

Bitcoin development has only got worse since then no matter who got funded or how many VCs came in or what the market cap etc.

Historians will probably mark this as the low point of Bitcoin

...if we are lucky enough not to go any lower.

One of the biggest supporters of Lightning

Who went on Real Vision as the face of Bitcoin Maximalism

Who sits on the cap table of *dozens* of Lightning startups

Who camps in Spaces and consistently calls Ethereum an overengineered scam

Learned TODAY how payment channels work

On the Blockchain, every txn is public

So, either everyone has 'privacy' or no one does

There's no such thing as only privacy for legit users (and not criminals)

It is the opposite of the judge's ruling

Judge is probably old untechnical person

My preliminary thoughts on the Pertsev verdict in this thread. I'm sad for Alexey and angry that the money laundering laws in the Netherlands have such a low threshold for intent, essentially mere negligence.

Nothing in this ruling should prejudice or carry weight in Roman

Somehow, over the past 7 years the mantra of 'scaling via layers' has morphed into a woefully misguided notion of 'only support innovation at higher layers.'

Developers WANT to innovate at higher layers and they WILL invent the building blocks needed to bridge the chasm.

What’s the greatest threat to humanity’s long-term future? Is it AI? Bioweapons? Climate change? Nuclear war? Check out my latest post, where I argue for an even more depressing answer. everythingisbullshit.blog/p/mediocrity-a…

Just cause you learned about an opcode last month doesn't mean it's not slow and steady -- CTV is like half a decade old bruh that's as slow and steady as it gets.

Definitely Cory will be the one to drive away the capitalists / productive people and thus drive the price of BTC to 0

But don't sell yet -- since whatever takes over will probably use a fork of the BTC UTXO set

👀

Certainly in the case of Roger Ver

Every soft fork will be CUSF -activated from now on

The benefits outweigh the costs by about 100x

Whereas UASF / MASF have costs > benefits

And Core has an official policy of never merging **or even reviewing** anything 'controversial' so that is a complete dead end
