Why is #bitcoin not being used in every day purchases today? It is not that because we don't have the tools.
It is because
- IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO SPEND A MONEY THAT INCREASES 40% ANNUALLY ON AVERAGE.
- FIAT PAYMENT SYSTEMS WORKS PERFECTLY FINE.
- PEOPLE WON'T BE PAYING WITH THE BEST MONEY EVER UNLESS THERE IS AN ADVANTAGE TO THEM.
- SOME PEOPLE FOCUS ON SURVIVING THEIR BLOODLINE RATHER THAN BUYING STUFF WITH BTC.
- FIAT DEBASEMENT IS A REAL PROBLEM WHILE EVERYDAY TRANSACTIONS ARE NOT.
goddamn these larpers

- Learned about blockchain before bitcoin.
- Doesn't like maximalism.
- Sees maxis as toxic narrow minded gate keepers
- Likes NFTs, thinks they are harmless.
It looks like we have found the perfect person to maintain #bitcoin.

Bitcoin Core(@bitcoincoreorg) is compromised and I don't consider it as the reference implementation anymore.
I've been blocked from the Bitcoin Github... for the crime of .... something?
I posted that they seem to be moving quickly to rush this change, and pointed out that the maintainer of the DNS seed is currently unable to comment (per the quoted thread)... and I'm blocked.
No warning, nothing.
I've been willing to give them a lot of slack, but kind of ridiculous that folks like Greg Maxwell can openly fling unfounded personal attacks in the repo while I get banned for asking them to slow down and lock a contentious thread for a few days at least until Luke returns.
Crazy.

Matthew has been doing god's work for some time. I can't appreciate it enough. Watch the video below to understand why #bitcoin nodes matter and subscribe to Bitcoin University on youtube.
Great bitcoiner. Highly recommended !

Btw it was Matt Corallo that unintentionally created the inflation bug and launched the DEI campaign to hire trans people just in terms of diversity.
More here: medium.com/@awemany/600-micr…
Ok, but I'd add some relevant details to this nice metaphor.
The engineer who originally built the airplane disappeared mid-flight, parachuting off. Then the second most influential engineer went rogue and was kicked out of the plane by the others (and the passengers), together with other 2 very important engineers (Jeff/Mike). Then two of the original engineers, namely the second most prolific ever (Luke) and one of the most influential (Peter), started disagreeing vocally, in front of the passengers, about how to manage the plane windows (the mempool). Then one of the main engineers unintentionally almost crashed the plane (inflation bug), and the others didn't see it coming because of reputation/trust dynamics. Btw, the same engineer launched a DEI campaign to hire black obese bisexual women with acne from the passengers to maintain the plane, because "diversity". Then another engineer went around changing the wording in all the emergency instructions, because he was afraid to be called "racist", and some passengers started having some mild doubts about the whole team. Then most of the other experienced OG engineers disappeared and retired, parachuting off the plane. Then two of the remaining OG engineers started going around the plane dressed like women (not an avionic issue per se, of course, but passengers may have prejudices and feel uncomfortable, so it's worth mentioning), and another one invited his girlfriend with less than 2 years of experience in avionics inside the cabin to become lead engineer (which says nothing about her skills, but again, you could expect some passengers to raise eyebrows). Then everybody on the plane realized that engineers botched up the installation of a screen against intense sunlight (spam). One off the two fighting OG engineers (Luke) freaked out in front of the passengers about "intense sunlight destroying the plane", and proposed to fix the screen, while the other (Peter) was happy it was broken and considered the bug actually a feature, because he had (rational) arguments about the screen not working at equilibrium anyway, and possibly making things even slightly worse. The screen didn't get fixed, but all emergency instructions were changed to reflect the behavior, with most engineers mocking passenger for even pointing out the screw-up. Then the contrarian engineer who proposed the fix was robbed of his wallet, and an FBI agent on board said it may have been one of the other engineers (of course it could have be somebody else, including him: never trust cops). Then the same engineer solicited a hip-round to mitigate the issues of a broken engine (mining centralization), and another engineer publicly called for the rich passengers (Jack) to withdrawal funding from the initiative, due to unrelated past personal beefs. Then, AND ONLY THEN, most of the engineers set out to make it an absolute priority to change the color of the paint around the windows, in a way that the contrarian engineer considered "fatal", and many passengers just disliked. After a huge push-back, they withdrew the controversial proposal, just to rush to implement another one, almost identical in effects but worded in a subtler way. Now, a growing, substantial minority of passengers are looking at the contrarian engineer as "maybe not as crazy as they thought". But it's not about him being very persuasive, or popular, or good at marketing. It's mostly about them being fed up.
Here, fixed it.

What do you do when your new spam version is not widely adopted by the community?
OFC you put it in previous version too in the name of fixing bugs.
These core devs are truly cancer.

So @bitcoincoreorg devs think that you shouldn't do WHATEVER THE FUCK you want with your #bitcoin node. They want full obedience.
Fuck these assholes. Run knots🪢
There once was a man from Darjeeling
Who boarded a bus bound for Ealing
It said on the door, Don't spit on the floor
So he stood up and spat on the ceiling
Note: in the spam debate, Core fans say spammers blocked by the opreturn limit are "forced" to use private mempools instead

Althought I have been publicly vocal about bitcoin, so many people have ignored me and thought that I'm an idiot about #bitcoin since 2018. I would say 99% of the people I knew in person did that.
Hard times are upon them and fuck if I care.

You can just do things.
Ludwig von Mises was 57 years old when the Nazis seized his life's work.
They confiscated his library, his manuscripts, his home, everything.
He fled to America with nothing but the clothes on his back and couldn't speak English.
Most people would have given up. Mises started over. 🧵

IMO there are 2 good ways to say FUCK YOU CORETARDS.
1. Posting a "FUCK YOU CORETARDS" on X.
2. Running knots.
Why not both?

Look Saif, I'm from Turkey(been in hyprinflation since forever) and my main goal is to hoard as much bitcoin as I can so that a couple of my next generations might not affected by hyperinflation. I understand that MoE people are trying to spread bitcoin adoption somehow but paying coffee with bitcoin is probably my 968th problem in here.
