Bitcoin Core users are paying $100,000 in transaction fees every 10 minutes! Why? because Bitcoin Core devs want everyone to be able to run a full node. Ethereum is handling 3 times more tx’s for just $2,000 and has 3x more full nodes. Conclusion? Core devs = ivory tower lunacy.

Wide acceptance in stores and peer to peer transactions not only increases Bitcoin’s value and network effect, it more importantly helps safeguard it from government intervention by reaching critical mass. Limiting its use to a store of value will prevent that from happening.

Craig Wright is a narcissistic sociopath. While I’m not a licensed psychologist and this is strictly my personal conclusion, I’ve met him in person and have also seen him act over the last years. He’s not the creator of Bitcoin (not even close).

The correct thing to do when a critical bug hits software responsible for 100’s of billions of dollars, would be to recommend people to run alternative clients. Of course, those in control of Bitcoin Core would never do that, as it would mean giving up power. Monopoly = Control.

First prospective study of mRNA vaccines on 13-18 year olds is out. The results are devastating. Cardiovascular effects in 30%, abnormal ECG’s in 18% and elevated cardiac biomarkers in more than 2%! This warrants an immediate moratorium. Must watch.

If someone doxxes you, and you suffer harm as a result, the person who doxxed you should be treated as an accomplice in front of a court of law.

User-ran non-mining full nodes actually play a trivial role in decentralization, and the obsession with it caused partial destruction of what really matters for decentralization: Low fees, non-custodial easy to use safe wallets, worldwide payment acceptance, instant transactions.
