Currently #Dogecoin is beating #BitcoinCash in on-chain tx volume. Goes to show that #Bcash is nothing but marketing gimmicks and sockpuppets trying to confuse uneducated investors.

$UST bank run in progress. Imagine being a Bitcoin maxi and celebrating the @stablekwon ponzi buying BTC that it will eventually have to dump on the market. Hats off to people like @coryklippsten for calling out this garbage when very few did.
Massive withdrawals from Anchor Protocol past hour, frequency increasing. There's only $300MM left of exit liquidity left on pool 53 before BTC peg. Hope this isn't how it starts -- on a low liquidity weekend

The state is well aware of this attack vector. Advocating for government approval and regulation of #Bitcoin mining is a reverse trojan horse that can lead to on-chain censorship. White market hash is 100% a security risk. The only secure hash is unknown (black market) hash.

Default #Bitcoin Core block template vs @ocean_mining block template. -0.15 BTC / -$6600 / -17% less fees for ocean pool users. Economically irrational behavior does not fare well in free market environments.

@MichaelPSenger These people are just advertisers for big pharma. Broad immunity means having more than just immunity to the spike protein. Broad immunity comes from your own immune system overcoming the entire virus.

Bitcoin is algorithmically enforced anarchy, there are rules but there are no rulers. Many people cannot stand this fact, they may claim to be anarchist/libertarian/voluntaryist but slowly Bitcoin reveals them. This phenomenon is also known as Bitcoin Derangement Syndrome.

All of these transactions are overpaying fees. Even at these levels next block fee is only 0.00003100 BTC ($0.15). Fees aren't high, the fee estimators are. 1. Use wallets with custom fees, RBF, and CPFP.2. Manually check mempool before each tx.3. Optimize for next block.

Veriblock was the project that used BTC txs as a means to secure its own chain, so-called Proof of Proof. This is what happens when you try to ride on the coattails of BTC's success. You get priced out because your coin has no use-case other than gimmicks that profit the founders

Who could have ever predicted that the state would target miners to 51% attack the network and censor transactions? The clowns out there crying about jpegs are completely oblivious to the actual threats facing #Bitcoin.

@bobbyclee @Twitter You should look below the surface. There is obvious spamming of low fee txs on the Bitcoin network. The majority of the time fees are quite low, its only when miners spam the network to fees skyrocket and blocks are full.

@WhyBitcoinCash @bitcoinist @NickSzabo4 Your website is full of lies #bitcoincash is highly centralized by chinese miners using #asicboost exploit. Also over 50% of the nodes are hosted by Alibaba cloud servers. Bcash is nothing but a marketing gimmick.

Practical use cases for OP_CTV (BIP 119). 🧵. 1. Vaults: Imagine your private keys are compromised and your coins are at risk of being stolen. With vaults you can set conditions where even if your keys are stolen, the funds can only be sent to an address that you control.

Bitcoin must be able to endure any and all attacks, forks, and FUD. The longer it endures the stronger it becomes, it is a gift that Bitcoin has so many enemies.

@StarfuryFlames @EricRWeinstein @lexfridman @Breedlove22 @dergigi @real_vijay @Bquittem He clearly doesn't understand that PoW is gauge theory. He also claims that nature solves the byzantine generals problem, but in the context of quantum indeterminacy it doesnt solve it, it just builds off an outcome, much like the blokchain does.

When someone says, "What if something better replaces #Bitcoin?". It's the equivalent of someone in the 1960s saying, "What if something better replaces integrated circuits?". Literal world changing technology is invented and people think this kind of thing happens everyday.

@ocean_mining In reality you're not filtering anything, you're building on and securing blocks with spam in them. Even your filtered block contains close to 50 inscriptions, while also losing out on 11% in fees. Blockspace marxism is futile and ends only in bankruptcy.

This #Bitcoin bill has two glaring caveats that are not being talked about. 1. In regards to the $200 tax exemption. 2. In regards to the "right" of self custody. Stop 👏 Trusting 👏 Politicians 👏. The fundamental value proposition of Bitcoin is a direct threat to governments

@IT_AIRmass @ThinkingBitmex It's a loan to a market marker who will sell the BTC to hold the UST peg. That's the whole point of BTC as collateral.

@liron @0xCryptoCafe @MartyBent This is not "your hack", it's a 51% attack and it's been known about since the white paper. The person you're sending BTC to can just wait for more confirmations, meaning you have to perpetually sink more hash and capital into a chain that may or may not have the most work.

The only secure hash is black market hash. All white market hash is a security risk.
My miningpool-observer project recently reported six OFAC-sanctioned transactions as missing from blocks. Four of these transactions were likely filtered by F2Pool. This is the first filtering based on OFAC sanctions I've seen. More in:

@rogerkver @infowars @PrisonPlanet @PrisonPlanetTV @RealAlexJones @BITCOlNCASH @WarRoomShow @allidoisowen @DewsNewz @krassenstein @EdKrassen Meanwhile #BCH still has less on-chain tx volume than #Dogecoin, with higher fees as well. Literally a meme-coin is more popular than #BCH.

The fundamental laws of information theory dictate that if your system can store anything at all, it can also store JSON data. For those who don't know, JPEGS aren't even the problem anymore. Its BRC20/SRC20/RUNES, which are all just JSON data. There is no way to stop this.

A few reasons why @bluewalletio is one of the best Bitcoin/Lightning wallets out there. • Trustless: Configurable to connect with your own Bitcoin/LN nodes. • Versatile: Import almost any mnemonic seed, private key, or xPub/zPub without worrying about derivation paths. 1/3.

@brian_armstrong A self investigation? Where have I heard this before? The responsible thing to do is announce to all in advance when trading will being instead of trying to hide information that can easily be capitalized on. @coinbase is becoming very shady, we will no longer recommend them.

The anti-CTV crowd are intellectually bankrupt. They have no valid technical arguments and now resort to politics and mud throwing. They no longer verify, they trust. They have become a hollow shell of their Bitcoin principles.
Don't forget the "Bitcoiner" leading the CTV charge was recently bought by #Bitcoin Mag. His name rhymes with Shinodi. EXTREMELY difficult to trust anyone coming out of that camp imo.

@SeeBaloney It would be more akin to bidding on a shipping container to move your gold. There is no cost to store bitcoin or to move your private keys. But there is a cost to move them to a new UTXO.

Alternative L2s: Imagine a L2 as trustless as LN, but with the added benefit of not having to be online to receive payments, and not having to deal with inbound/outbound liquidity or channel balancing. Utilizing CTV, is a proposal for such a system.

@cheddar @jimmysong He is correct. Enterprise blockchains are just a shared datebase among trusted participants, this is nothing new. What #Bitcoin does is completely remove those trusted parties, creating a universally secure triple-entry record keeping system.

2. Shared UTXOs: Imagine if 1000s of users were able to trustlessly share one UTXO. This allows for: .- Self sovereign scaling for low net worth users. - Bulk LN channel creation for 1000s of users. - Plausible deniability privacy using payment pools.

@sbetamc @dailyblockchain You can see it here as well. Notice the jumps in txs across multiple sat/byte levels, all happening simultaneously. Miners are exploiting the fee market for profit.

@Bitcoin You forgot that over 90% of the miners of #bcash are located in China. You also left out the fact the #bitcoincash has not patched covert #asicboost. Chinese miners blocked segwit because it patches #asicboost so they forked to continue using the exploit. #bcash is insecure.

@BitcoinCashKE How is BCH the original Bitcoin? It hard forked onto its own minority chain by changing the blocks and the difficulty adjustment algorithm. BCH was producing 100's of blocks per hour highly offsetting the coin inflation rate.

@Ragnarly If Satoshi had integrated full privacy into Bitcoin from that start, maxis would denounce any chain that wasnt completely private. The benefit would be obvious for all the same reasons that people find Monero useful. The only difference is fanatical tribalism.

@Bitcoin @aantonop You are misrepresenting the facts. The BTC mempool currently has 50MB consisting of 1 sat/byte transactions. If you were to send a tx with 2 sat/byte it would be confirmed in the next block. This is not congestion, these are not high fees. Your account is consistently untruthful.
