China just accused the U.S. government of stealing 127,000 Bitcoin. DOJ says it was a lawful seizure. China calls it state-sponsored hacking. Same coins. Same wallet. Two nuclear powers pointing at each other. This isn’t a crime story — it’s the first Bitcoin Cold War. Watch

Pearl clutching at a good business decision is ridiculous. We should rather be asking ourselves a bigger question -- why is this not built on Bitcoin? What decisions & path brought us to this point where the biggest Bitcoin maximalist (Jack) integrates stables on Solana into

"There's a finite amount of Bitcoin supply and theoretically an infinite amount of demand" @intangiblecoins explains that while BTC might not perform like it has in the past, there's still massive upside

It is well within the filter camp Overton Window to say that some people using bitcoin for monetary reasons is weird and complex and therefore they deserve to have their coins confiscated.
Me watching you realize most Bitcoiners are actually dumber than the average population:

In order to serve up inscription content super fast on an explorer frontend, most sites (like Uniscan below) don't actually directly query the chain, rather cache in a more performant database. Given that there are over 100 million inscriptions of which I'd bet 90 million are

I have now fully open sourced the code which creates this on-chain BIP-444 futures contract! The contract starts with an atomic deposit into the contract address of 1 BTC each (to make sure both parties put in the same amount into the contract address). Context: BIP-444 makes
For anyone who thinks BIP 444 will activate, I will happily offer you an ability to make more bitcoin. We each deposit 1 BTC into a taproot address with two spending conditions: 1. Time locked so that you can withdraw June 1st next year at a depth of 1 in the tap tree. 2. Time

I just won the Knots telegram ban any% with a run of under 3s Join -> say nothing -> ban Time 00:00:02 new WR
I've now been banned from the Knots Telegram channel by @GrassFedBitcoin where I earlier today saw @LukeDashjr that he plans his fork being enforced because all mining pools who disagree with him will be thrown in jail. The debate is over. Enough is enough. These are attackers

the attack surface we should be concerned about are groups & people arguing for censorship of bitcoin to "protect the children" or other Four Horsemen topics.
@NickSzabo4 @wyatt_earp @adam3us @MalachiRevolts @charbel_g @citrea_xyz @bitschmidty @murchandamus @LukeDashjr @GrassFedBitcoin @adam3us you've worked closely with Mike and Greg at Blockstream. But please also hear community voices like Nick's. This is about attack surface and worst-case planning. You mentioned Core not wanting to lose face. Support some compromise like restoring the 160B default in 30.1.
