Because this has nothing to do with Bitcoin and doesn't make any sense from the network's perspective.

Mandatory vax crosses a line.
Telling people they *can't* put stuff in their body (i.e illegal drugs) is bad enough as it is.
But legally forcing people to *put* stuff in their body is a new low.

I'm about to sell a larger amount of bitcoin than I have in years because my mortgage will likely become unworkable at my next renewal so I have to take a bite out of it.
Enjoy the incoming rally to $45k or so immediately after I have done this.

It is extremely easy to fix the spam problem by implementing a couple of fixes to Core's filtration. No consensus changes necessary.

RFK isn't going to win the nomination, and even if he did, he wouldn't get elected, and even if he did he wouldn't do the bitcoin stuff he's saying and even if he did it wouldn't actually be a good thing.

Been called a spook by Scamorai for years along with anyone else that pointed out the flaw in their design.
Now you have to trust them not to share the data with the feds that they should never have had in the first place.
My sympathy lies with the people they scammed.
It's very simple: if you're conjoining by sending your xpub to a third party - you aren't coinjoining.

It got hotter by 8° since the sun came up today.
One of those degrees was a MAGICAL degree worth a million dollars.
We assigned ownership of that degree to this dude who can now sell it on bitcoin for a bunch of money.

Sad truth is these lockdowns are the most fun some people have ever had. It's the first excitement they've felt in years.

This is how much data just got uploaded in that one transaction.
It's fake witness data so it gets a 75% discount despite the original reason for the witness discount being to *prevent the ballooning of the UTXO set*.
However it stayed within the limitations of current default…

We found a block. Should have taken around 11 days - only took 2.
Miners also got 7x the reward because of temporarily disabled ramp-up.
What a score.
Yep, we found a block already.
The generation TX wasn't correct - all the btc will go where they're supposed to of course after ~100 block cooldown. Website confused/will be updated asap.
This is insanely lucky and all the early OCEAN adopters just made a fortune.

UTXO management getting me down today.
I don't understand how people DCA unless they use custodial exchanges and withdraw it all at once.
Else, are you all seriously just stacking a tonne of 0.000x UTXOs? That's gonna really hurt one day.

Segwit was supposed to encourage the reduction of the UTXO set.
The mechanism by which it was supposed to do that is being abused by spammers and having the exact opposite effect.
Before all this started (~Feb 2023) there were around 89 million UTXOs.
In 14 months it has…

Signing device is a lot better and what I say, but they also generate mnemonics too, and I don't want to call them a "signing device and mnemonic generator" because I'm already alienating noobs enough.

Blow this up. Binance changed bc1p to bc1q after saying they'd support taproot and they think it's something that can be resolved on the user end. They have no idea what they are doing and the bitcoins that got burned forever should be repurchased at their expense.
So, this allegedly happened:
1)
@binance
announces they'll support Taproot.
2) User requests withdrawal to P2TR address, Binance creates P2WSH output instead, burning the funds.
3)
@BinanceHelpDesk
blames user for mistake, no refund.
@cz_binance

Bitcoiners are actually at the level now where they think software's function is literally whatever it ended up being regardless of the initial intention of the developers.
Bugs? Nope, just rewrite helper files.
Spam? No such thing. A protocol can only be used, never abused.

@bitgidie
Bitcoin does have a "security budget" dilemma, its just not the one Udi and Eric blab on about
It's actually the cost to run a node
The higher the budget required to purchase the hardware needed to run a full node, the more centralized--and thus the less secure--the network is
