hasn’t touched… yet

Bravo! Thanks for making my point.

Lemmy is just not a great platform if you value personal property and individual freedom, it was started by socialists/communists and it shows. It’s pretty random that I even answer to this post because I check lemmy only once every few weeks. >97% bitcoin here.

I just went through the modlog to see which comment was removed any why, and seeing your comment just reinforces my impression that posting anything on lemmy isn’t worth it. Your comment was obviously removed because somebody disagreed with you, not because you disrespected anybody participating in the discussion (rule 2).

Bill Nye - Climate Change is REAL motherfuckers!

So science-y

What’s the bitcoin connection?

I find it interesting that an industry where lemmy users have sympathy for killing CEOs is blindly trusted with children.

Don’t you know the difference between sexual orientation and gender?

All I hear is “I’m bad at mentoring”

They’re trying to dump their bags on the US government. Is it illegal? Sadly no. Should it be? Yes.

If they are dumping their bags now, which SHOULD make them criminals, what were they when they bought those bags? You make zero sense.

Your opinion won’t matter. You don’t own an exchange, you aren’t a major bitcoin miner, and you’re not a platform landlord or newspaper editor.

Again you show zero understanding or knowledge of bitcoin. Node runners showed miners who is in control in 2017, and they will happily do so again.

To make an analogy for the lightning network, imagine each time you made a credit card payment, you have a to roll a die, and only if it comes up as a six, your payment goes through.

That’s cute, previously you pretended that only onchain exists, and now you’re a lightning expert, an expert who is unable to run a well connected node. Okay.

Not useful to law abiding citizens, exactly.

Are the senators and state legislators who advocate for bitcoin strategic reserves all criminals? You don’t know what you’re talking about.

The scarcity is debatable because of forks.

A fork will never be considered bitcoin by my bitcoin node, and nobody who runs a bitcoin node is incentivized to increase the limit on bitcoin as it would only devalue their bitcoin. Again, you don’t seem to understand even basic concepts about bitcoin.

which leads to a transaction limit of 7 transactions per second

Oh my, you’re stuck in a narrative from 2017. Again, you don’t know anything about bitcoin or the lightning network.

You mean bitcoin is not useful to you, it is very useful to lots of people. How is its scarcity debatable?

I don’t understand how bitcoin has value

The first major use case were donations to wikileaks, because the existing financial system shut them out. Recently, the Americans shut Russia out of the financial system and stole their money. Escaping financial repression is valuable (even if you don’t agree that people should be able to escape).

Hm wat? It’s obvious that something useful and scarce will always go up against money a central bank can create out of thin air.

The cope. Nobody could have predicted this! Except all the people who predicted it. But that was just luck!

Spoken like a true linguistic supremacist.

I have zero tolerance for people who think that their variety of a language is superior to all others, and that they get to impose it on others.

The data format in wordpress is ridiculously bad though, if you just want to get content from an api use a decent framwork.

Next you’ll listen to some hip hop and start calling black people the n word?
