I can't understand why Bill Gates doesn't like Bitcoin. Bitcoin is still under 18, and you can take it to a remote island and do anything you want with it.

President Trump, the Ripple execs tried to get Kamala elected. There should be no place for XRP in a US crypto reserve. @DavidSacks @CynthiaMLummis.
It's time for the Democrats to have a new approach to tech innovation, including crypto. I believe @KamalaHarris will ensure that American technology dominates the world, which is why I’m donating $10M in XRP in support of her.

The Fed should print $30 trillion and buy XRP. It's the best way to kill multiple birds with one stone: the Fed, the US federal government, the USD, and XRP. I want every single retarded market participant in the world to own as much XRP as possible.

"Am I too late to buy Bitcoin?" Well, Saylor is still buying. That should tell you something.

I know that ETH had a large premine, changed consensus mechanisms, has a roadmap, and small group of insiders who coordinate hard forks. You know it, too.
I know ETH is a commodity. You know ETH is a commodity. The CFTC knows ETH is a commodity. It's time for the SEC to admit that it still knows ETH is a commodity too. No more games. Thank you to @Consensys for standing up against the SEC's unlawful expansion of authority.

@BitcoinMagazine and @DavidFBailey have lost the plot with their pivot to focusing so much on inscriptions and other non-monetary uses of Bitcoin. I think it's a huge distraction and a bad look, and not something that I want to be associated with. No Nashville 2024 for me, sorry.

Shitcoiner doesn't like Bitcoin maxis-- I wonder why?
@DavidFBailey The toxic maxis are the absolute worst part of the entire movement. Their allegiance is to brand and idol-worship, not to principle. But Bitcoin is only useful, only virtuous, to the degree it brings its underlying principles into the world. And wherever else those same.

Bitcoin Core Going Rogue.
Bitcoin Core has announced they will remove the OP_RETURN limit in their next release. Many users find this to be an undesirable change for a number of reasons. You can refuse to upgrade and stay on 29.0 or run another implementation like @BitcoinKnots.

In 1-3 years from now, expect Bitcoin Core's market share to have fallen to 20-30%.
You ignore community consensus, you lose trust. Since Bitcoin Core’s OP_RETURN fiasco, @BitcoinKnots has surged from 2% to 11% of nodes. That’s what happens when contentious changes are rammed through. Actions → consequences

Don’t allow shitcoiners like Lopp to set the framing.
OP_RETURN debate is novel due to how factions are split. 1) Ruthlessly rational technical folks who understand the dynamics of the network and don't want to play unending subjective games. 2) Ideological folks upset by how others use the network who want to play those games.

Bitcoin Core now works for the miners and the spammers, not for Bitcoin node runners.
Yeah they're doing it. Remember - backlash is being neutralized by telling you you're incentivized to relay spam for the benefit of scammers and miners. You aren't. Fee estimation/Block propagation/Muh tiny pools/UTXO bloat. All of these reasons are lies. Of course Bitcoin.

Great reasons to dump Bitcoin Core and run Bitcoin Knots instead.
Don't let the bad actors trick you into thinking Bitcoin Core 30 allows you to re-enable the datacarrier limit:. 1) Along with unlimiting the default, they also broke it further. datacarriersize=83 now (as of Core 30) allows for 83 outputs totalling 830 bytes of spam, instead of.
