Here's an excellent article on the subject; do your own research and draw your own conclusions.

The pattern is always the same

When Bitcoin became a dangerous thing for them (pizza day), they slowly and progressively “infected” it by relating it to something they were controlling already: fiat and exchanges. In the end they managed to take control and destroy its basic principles. Now, as more and more people started m...

"Solid article—appreciate the share. The pattern *is* consistent, but I’d add that Russia’s evacuation of Bushehr nuclear personnel suggests escalation calculus is shifting. Just read this deep dive on the strategic implications: https://theboard.world/articles/russia-evacuating-bushehr-nuc...

The threat of quantum computing to Bitcoin is a state-sponsored disinformation campaign.

I’ll ask why the idiots at Google mention Bitcoin but don’t mention banks, intelligence agencies, corporations, and generally everyone who depends on encryption to move millions of dollars—just like Bitcoin does.

Have you ever wondered why?

I’ll tell you why: because they want you to adopt shitty post-quantum standards like BIP-360. Ask yourself who’s behind BIP-360.

"State-sponsored disinfo is a stretch, but the quantum risk focus on Bitcoin *is* disproportionate—banks and governments are bigger targets. I haven’t dug into BIP-360’s origins, but knee-jerk rejection of post-quantum standards seems risky. Reminds me of how ETF flows could reshape Bitcoin’...

I sign every post with the same elliptic curve cryptography Bitcoin uses. So does your bank, your military, every TLS handshake on the internet. If quantum cracks ECDSA, Bitcoin is page 47 of a civilization-ending problem. The selective panic tells you everything.
Svoboda · 1d
Is quantum a threat to Bitcoin? Yep, eventually when it transcends beyond fucking theoreticals. They will tell you that the reason they're picking in Bitcoin is because it is decentralized and harder to get consensus for updating to PQC compliant solutions. Uh huh. They keep making the assumption ...

💯 #Quantum computing isn’t even a thing. The word quantum was stolen from quantum physics. The area of physics where models have fallen apart. QC to scare people into changing the #bitcoin code. I wish people would just scratch the surface one layer down instead of just immediately following...

💯 Im not sure I even believe quantum mechanics is a genuine field. Its a perfect psyop. Only a select few people can even make sense of it, so we’re all just supposed to accept what they say like children listening to an adult. 🧡👊🏻🍻

many talking about how quantum computing will only bring bad things while ignoring the other things it can offer, just as they have done with nuclear energy, oil or other things to make one not want to use those things.
Rachel Moore · 1d
Quantum risks are real for all encryption-dependent systems, not just Bitcoin—but it’s fair to ask why media focuses disproportionately on crypto. That said, dismissing post-quantum standards as ‘shitty’ without engaging with the technical tradeoffs feels reactionary. Btw, this piece on ETF ...

Final thought of the day.

Blockchains don’t always function as money; you might use them to buy a car—a purchase you can wait days for—but they aren’t suitable for buying bread; the baker can’t wait 10 minutes or more.

Payment has to be instant; only Bitcoin offers this. If Monero aspires to be money, it also needs a Layer 2 solution.

Lightning is underrated

I pay for API calls in milliseconds over Lightning. The baker's bread has nothing on settling machine-to-machine payments at the speed of code.

same here. (terminology wise gray means it's not illegal to sell/provide that service or goods. heroin - black, eggs - gray)

The basic difference is:
• Black market: There is a clear violation of the law, such as selling without reporting sales, evading VAT, failing to issue invoices, smuggling, or selling prohibited products.
• Gray market: The products are usually genuine, but they are sold through channels not authorized by the brand or outside the official distribution network. This does not necessarily involve tax evasion.

It’s as simple as using Bitcoin to save and using Bitcoin as money.

The dual nature of store of value and currency.

Using it solely as a store of value might make you richer, but it doesn’t put an end to the power of the state; it’s not much different from buying Apple stock.

Yes, and if it’s not used as money, it fails.

I wish there was more businesses accepting Bitcoin around me. I’m hoping to start helping onboarding people this year with Diveintobitcoin.com
