Exactly one year ago I published The Genesis Book. Today, it's the highest rated Bitcoin book on sites like Amazon and Goodreads. Really proud of that! Thank you so much to anyone who bought, read and/or rated it!! 🙏🙏🙏

Many categorise bitcoin as a here today, gone tomorrow fad. The reality is, it has deep foundations stretching back many years. Read The Genesis Book by Aaron van Wirdum @AaronvanW

This is an extremely well-written article by my friend @AaronvanW explaining both sides’ perspectives in the Knots vs Core debate on OP_RETURN. Balanced, insightful, and a must-read for Bitcoiners! It’s written in layman’s terms so even if you aren’t technical you can get an idea

Still confused about what’s going on with Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Knots and OP_RETURN? I wrote up this overview for Bitcoin Magazine: https://t.co/aktMV6lspv

Good overview of Bitcoin Core and Knots here by Aaron. You're free to run whatever node software you want, just recognise that other people can and will make different choices.

The OP_RETURN debate splits Bitcoin users: Bitcoin Core 30.0 supports bigger OP_RETURNs, while Bitcoin Knots pushes back, fearing spam, rising fees, and regulatory risks.

There are people who never read a Cypherpunk manifesto by Eric Hughes. There are also people who never read the genesis book by @AaronvanW It’s time to educate the willing, as they might need the tech in the times we live in. https://t.co/nbiPnpl6ez
