On August 15, 1971, President Nixon suspended the convertibility of the US dollar into gold, subjecting the American citizenry to an unprecedented and disastrous economic experiment.

How many of us is this true for? 🤔

I'm officially running Knots.

You will not only relay spam, but you will also do it ten times cheaper. And you will be happy. Switch to Bitcoin Knots.

‼️BREAKING ‼️ Bitcoin Knots breaks past 17% on the heels of Jeff Booths announcement!

At least 10 devs deliberately contribute to Knots: 1 .Luke Dashjr, github.com/luke-jr 2 .Léo, github.com/retropex 3 .Shiny, github.com/bigshiny90 4 .Ataraxia, github.com/ataraxia009 5 github.com/pithosian ...[cont'd next post]

Mining pool centralisation is the biggest problem facing bitcoin right now. This is not what censorship resistance looks like.

Translation: Bitcoin Core v30 adjusted the default min tx relay so that there's no risk of orphans anymore when this version is rolled out. They also backported this to Core v29.1 I'm sure the fact that MARA is a large donor to the dev team is coincidence and not quid pro quo.

Another nation state pushes for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Eventually they all will.

Be careful out there... The bad actors are now attacking individual Knots nodes. If you have data limits, pay a visit to the maxuploadtarget option (in the GUI under Options -> Network tab -> Try to keep upload traffic under ____ MiB per day - only in Knots)

node runners beware

The way Core is behaving is literally why we need Bitcoin in the real world to begin with The irony

Doesn't look good for a spamming miner to also be spamming data-capped Comcast nodes.
