Yes, on superannuation (our equivalent of 401k) balances of over $3 million. Thats where it will start of course, won’t take long for it to expand.
They’ve already restricted transfers to crypto exchanges to $10k per month; they don’t want any escape hatches for when they turn the Dollarydoo into confetti to prop up our housing Ponzi.

Pretty high.
Current government proposed it, they’re likely to be in minority government next term being dragged further left by our psychotic Greens party and a bunch of champagne socialist Karens who claim to be independent but are really just a front for the renewable energy lobby - together theyll get it done.
We never stopped.
“The problem with Australians is not that so many of them are descended from convicts, but that so many of them are descended from prison officers.” - Clive James
Here comes the third prong to fuck #AUStriches once and for all.
Digital ID comes in December, both sides of government are pushing legislation to have social media users KYCed (see note below and image 3) which will be here mid-2025.
And now they’re pushing ahead with the mis- and disinformation bill which defines “harm” so broadly (image 2) that there is no escape.
No more posting about Bitcoin, that harms the economy. No more disagreeing with net zero lunacy, that harms the environment. No questioning vaccines, that harms health.
If you do - they’ll have your identity and will come and arrest you for breaking this new law.
Bye bye Australia 🇦🇺 https://v.nostr.build/SUzWO8tItR8kdbKF.mp4https://i.nostr.build/BBdqZcfkXlx6H03b.jpghttps://i.nostr.build/kJ1QQxhRdUgwzZei.jpgnostr:note169sh3rkq2w639r5x558yqwnskwed897qza5m7qa0sw8l8dsngpkq5u9wgu
Aussies are all too busy waiting for someone to come and save them, even those paying attention.
It’s hard enough to get #AUStriches Bitcoiners to use #nostr, dunno how long it took @Bender to come across?.. Getting normies from Xitter to do anything other than reee about it rather than act on solutions is seemingly impossible.
They’re going to have to experience the pain and by then it’s too late to undo any of this stuff.
Exactly. Australia is the test balloon but this will be coming to Western “liberal democracies” around the world.
All are aligned with the psychotic WEF agenda which gets all the parasites on the same page for their globalist regime.
Time to start thinking about which side of the silicon curtain one wants to be on. Particularly when you throw in considerations of birth rates, demographics, and how advanced each nation’s fiat Ponzi scheme (and derivatives thereof) are.

They’ll ignore it at first, too small to care about for now and mentioning it will just have a Streisand effect.
But once they do pick up on it I’m assuming they’ll probably go after the relays. They can easily seize domains here.
That a politician speaking on the floor claiming everyone else is beholden to private companies, justifying why they need to intervene to save us all from ourselves
You should have an ounce per head of your household in case shit hits the fan and you need to get out of dodge to somewhere with electricity where you can use your corn.
I stash an ounce when I travel too. Worst case you get robbed of your phone/wallet/docs, you can get some cash and not be homeless or reliant on others to sort you out.
Everyone who says Blackrock will control Bitcoin fails to fully think through the game theory.
If Blackrock has say $1 Trillion in their ETF, the bounty on the heads of the key holders in their multisig is.. $1 Trillion
Not $1 Trillion insurable dollars backed by the full faith and credit of the US Empire and the money printer. But rather $1 Trillion worth of liquid Bitcoin which can be permanently and irrevocably moved to someone else’s control in one block’s time.
The world isn’t ready for Bitcoin going parabolic.
I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near a custody arrangement like that.
You’d have to imagine that if someone wants those keys they’re going to go a LONG way to get them given what’s at stake, literal nation state level wealth on the line.
I assume there are already intelligence operatives working their way in to Coinbase to set this up. IBIT already has $20B+ - imagine what an activist group could do with that kind of uncensorable capital..
It’s not meant to stop kids getting on social media - everyone knows that is futile.
The point is to require the platforms to KYC all Australian users so eKaren can send goons to kick your door in when you question forced medical interventions / a racist referendum / why 1 in 30 people in the country is a foreign student / what dragqueens are doing reading books to children at public libraries / why the economy has shit itself / any other thing they don’t like.
fOr dA cHiLdReN is just the excuse. https://i.nostr.build/aswvzs1jjV4EwoDU.jpg
We don’t agree about selling crack.
The State and its interventionism is the problem.
The algos aren’t feeding the kids statism like we used to get from radio and tv and newspapers and public schooling. Kids aren’t buying the facade any more because Millenials and younger are done with this shit and aren’t consuming the propaganda like the Boomers did and do.
That challenges the State’s legitimacy and they can’t have that. Can’t have people consuming unapproved narratives and wondering how big of a mob would be needed to effectively guillotine all of the parasites in parliament to rid ourselves of this nonsense.
That’s all this is about.
I as a parent would take responsibility for my children.
That’s what parents are supposed to do - not outsource parenting to the State.
It’s like you’ve forgotten the natural order of things because you’re so awash in modern day nanny statism.
Selling drugs involves two consenting parties - my kid would get the first beating and you’d get the second.
And no I wouldn’t delegate that.
Are you allergic to responsibilities or something? Female perhaps?
Victorian Premier and all-around Commie piece of shit, Jacinta Allan, is also going to “age restrict” social media.
This is coming to a Liberal Democracy near you, complaint nanny statist #AUStriches are simply the test balloon. https://v.nostr.build/yHJ0MGqaJ7TYzeAL.mp4
Australia stopped releasing this data years ago when the top 10% of earners were paying 51% of income tax which was more than the tax receipts from corporate taxes.
In the US, 1 person is now expected to carry 7.5 on their backs and being denigrated because they’re not carrying more. They don’t get to drive on more or better roads, they don’t get better policing or access to hospitals, no they do it so they’re not imprisoned.
Separation of money and state is the only way to end this true Marxist inequality where the productive people not only make society function, but pay for the privilege of doing so. https://i.nostr.build/cLv09QSIjjfyeIG6.jpg
Matt Barrie has given a keynote based on his article, “Put another Aussie on the Barbie”.
If you want to understand why #AUStriches are fukt - this is it. There’s no way to sugarcoat it, no bright side to look upon, there’s going to be a lot of medicine to go down and we’re all out of sugar.

There’s a huge market waiting to be disrupted!

There are options on both sides.
Clients could provide better NIP05 filtering, let me mute replies from accounts without a NIP05 and let me blocklist keypairs with NIP05s from certain domains.
Paid relays already solve this but getting Users to adjust to them is a bigger ask. We’ve seen them work for 18+ months now but not everyone is willing to stump up money and put their attention behind a paywall.
Don’t worry, Saylor won’t be on here any time soon.
#Nostr is a much better solution to the decentralised identity problem which he’s tried to solve with Microstrategy Orangechecks: nostr:note1q3zk4f5uxg4nfj8qr5h3568mg0seafm3rwsz3mkdkksu53w3pz3sr30hzs
Besides, not enough fawning for him here, and too many who see his spookiness. He’ll stick to Xitter with all the other fiat CEOs.
So we would filter the one Tor domain? Directly using IP is a problem for the spammer moreso than it is the network.
Maybe I’m missing something here but you’ve not explained why this wouldn’t work, you’ve just given more things that I’d want to filter out.
This ☝️
Clients should allow Users to filter/mute by NIP05. No NIP05 then I don’t want to see your replies.
Put the onus on NIP05 providers to not allow their service to be abused by spammers lest all their community get filtered out, then spammers only have the option of doing it from their own domains which can more easily be blocked and will quickly cost too much to be worthwhile.
Yes it keeps out the bots. They have to pay to have their npubs whitelisted and they ain’t doing that.
Spam only works when its marginal cost approaches zero.

I love what @brugeman is doing with npub.pro and @dtonon with Oracolo and @Alex Gleason 🐍 with Ditto - making it easy for people to have their own corner on Nostr will encourage more people to get their own NIP05 and expand the web of trust.
It’s like a cypherpunk geocities/myspace hybrid forming here
Disagree. The global economy is a house of cards on the best of days as it stands.
Introduce a new variable of the asset rich needing to unload illiquid holdings en masse the same time every year and you’ve got a recipe for total fukn carnage. Massive capital flight on announcement and massive unrest on enforcement.
Throwing a randomiser on and giving preferential treatment to some at the expense of others would just be bonkers, like 100X volatility on already 100X volatility.
Billionaires might as well just form private armies and go hunt the political class - it would be way cheaper. Then they’ll turn those forces on their business rivals..
It would be a government-induced version of an Ancapistan nightmare
The Dems aren’t serious, but they’ve pushed their base so far left that their rhetoric has to reach into these psychotic places and that leads the usual apologists and talking heads to show their true colours.
But if it did somehow come to pass, I’m confident my chaos theory would be much closer to reality than whatever the supporters envision would happen. The market distortions would be unlike anything we’ve ever seen.
I make a point about the game theory of #Bitcoin going parabolic - the early HODLers sitting on thousands of coins are disproportionately black flag anarchist types, we’ve never seen those type of people amongst the upper echelons of the financial elite. If they truly believe Bitcoin could free us from Statism, what might they do with that wealth?
Are the key holders protecting the Blackrock ETF safe in that world where there’s a multi-Trillion dollar bounty on their heads, 1 block away from permanently and irrevocably being under someone else’s control?
A scenario of taxing Billionaires like this who already have those levels of wealth might be more manageable for the parasites, but by how much? Only takes 1 or 2 well funded rogues who calculate they’ve got more to gain flipping the table than playing by the new rules..
People think Bitcoiners are just speculating.
What they don’t understand is we’re speculating from a position with huge information asymmetry.
That’s why Bitcoiners say to study it - you need to learn to get the information asymmetry they have.
Time preference you learn through Bitcoin.
Normies think #Bitcoin is like a stock tip, that Bitcoiners are no different to the GME Apes who just “like the coin”.
They have no concept of ploughing 1000+ hours of study into something as arcane as the history of money, fiat, austrian economics, game theory etc. These are people who by-and-large don’t learn anything unless they have to for their job so the idea a group of people would go into such depth studying such boring things doesn’t resonate.
They can’t see how Bitcoiners come to their conclusions because they can’t imagine themselves or anyone putting in that much effort.
It’s a good time to consider options.
None of these trends are going to improve any time soon. Labor think they’re miracle-workers as Aus was the best performing country after 2008 GFC so they’ll try to spend their way out of the problems but it’s just going to exacerbate all the problems now - they’ll likely end up in a minority Gov with the nutjob Greens and champagne socialist Teals pushing them to psychotic stuff like Canada has had.
Look at health and NDIS for more warning signs. https://i.nostr.build/0oXmo3XLCZjFNiuf.jpghttps://i.nostr.build/nwF4bo6eKlL8WR2c.jpg
Interesting thought.
I’ve noticed there are some words I just cannot remember in other languages despite repeated exposure and others that I’ll pick up after one go. My speculation is it’s how my brain is processing language through syntax and structure, some words just seem intuitive and others are “wtf is that?”
Money is much more than that, including a network and a social consensus to name but a few.
Good luck trying to Kaspa-pill the world with its Zionist founders. I’m sure all the Muslim Bitcoiners who care about Halal money will be right behind you joining the dozen spuds on your retard client..
Money is most definitely a social consensus. It is the very lubricant of a society. It’s what we use so we don’t bash and steal and simply let the strongest dominate.
Go try buy an airplane with bananas and you’ll find there are ZERO takers in the world. You won’t be able to form consensus with a single person to participate in your transaction.
You’ll find exactly the same when you release your Kaspa client and absolutely no-one wants your shitcoin and the social consensus of what money is on Nostr remains Bitcoin.
You COULD buy an airplane with a banana, if you could find consensus with someone willing to part ways with an airplane for a banana. Nothing precludes that tx and you repeating time and energy is irrelevant.
Every transaction involves consensus.
This is what you don’t seem to get.
Spin up your retard client and you’ll get a real world demonstration - no other clients are going to implement Kaspa wallets so you’re not going to be able to use your shitcoin because no-one will be willing nor able to receive it.
You’re going to get a very practical lesson in the economics of shitcoining.
