All 110 supporters were burned reputationally. Unfortunately they didn't get burned economically (yet) since they had no conviction to engage in fork futures. Listening to experts is just another fo...

Wow, I gotta say I’m a bit baffled.
Disagreements aside it is a bit harsh to wish someone gets burned whilst holding BTC. It wouldn’t inspire trust and improve adoption of BTC, similar to the Coldcard debacle.
I wouldn’t have expected such a wish from a BTC OG as yourself. Keeping the disagreements civil and and within tjhe bounds of BTC consensus should be enough.
I don’t agree and the ”experts” concept either, respectfully.
Regardless of the expertise level people make mistakes and so called expert have biases and personal interests.
Keeping one’s wits and making up one’s mind based on broader social signals and not an expert’s sole opinion surely is a sounder way to do things.
In a world where information is abundant and ”experts” gladly promote for clicks, it is imo a sounder approach to increase the broadband of information and expertise from both sides of the rift.
When I do though read you wish people got financially hurt because of a different opinion, it doesn’t help you winning points in my book

I'm not here for your points. Bitcoin governance battles are intellectual and economic wars. No one has to participate, but if you do, know that the losers get punished one way or another.

Sad day for all who’ve lost sats from their Coldcards.
Equally sad day for bitcoin self custody as one realizes the pitfalls of self custody and the fragile trust in it.
I would imagine Coinkite is not happy either.

Globalization failed on account of organized, militarized states finding it easier to fight rather than accept increased competition with each other. That because of short term, local political interests.
With decentralized Bitcoin, competition and globalization can happen between individuals, hence the risk of wars should diminish in the long run.

Shit…. I sprung a leak!

So Putin gets Ukraine, Trump grabs Venezuela and Xi gets ready to subdue Taiwan. Is this part of a three way deal between dictators?
A new Yalta type deal amongst the strongest militarily?
Sure looks like it.
Trump can’t show off his might against China or Russia but Venezuela was a cheap target to show off military might.
And grab some oil in the process.
I guess the nuclear race will soon be on, as everyone is eye-balling North Korea showing off the only functioning deterrence.
Good thing Europe prioritized investment on new bottle caps, that was prio

Thanks for tuning in. If you could leave a comment on Spotify and a 5 star that would be great 🙏🏻

Found it on Spotify, of all places😊 A really good discussion, would’ve been even better if nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpramhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0v3jhyatwdejhyuewdejhgam0wf4sz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmc30l6ly would’ve spilled more beans on BTC an...
