FinCEN’s proposal to outlaw all crypto privacy is a huge overreach. They apply a section of the Patriot Act on a “class of transactions” in a new precedent. Doesn’t matter if it’s custodial or noncustodial- merely using certain type of code can be an illegal act.

Would be nice to have mobile phone storage to get cheap enough to have pruned nodes running, even if intermittently.

The low node count really isn’t great, it’s just illustrative of lack of knowledge of what Bitcoin represents and the roles we all play in this system.

The network value at the root, is more related to node runners vs rest of metrics.


Could I ask what makes you feel secure than none of the core dev team has been co-opted? Genuine question, as this does seem to be one of the larger risks.

Additionally, can you speak to the pathetically low amount of full nodes being run and it’s anemic growth.

Thx, love your pods 🙏

Any suggestions for home cloud storage/comput? Im hoping for 10-20tb and fast remote upload download. Partitioned, running node, selling encrypted storage for sats.


One point I’d like to raise is the horrifically low number of full nodes globally, and actually the pathetic growth rate of full node runners. This seems to be a decent risk factor to my mind and from a network point of view pretty damming for the value of Bitcoin.

Thoughts? Comments?

As example, using robosats. The functionality for where I am located, means the person I am buying/selling knows basically who I am and I know who they are.

Even setting up an umbrel exposes you to browsers, emails.

Buying a coldcard exposes your details, etc

I have a bunch of kyc/nonkyc over the years. Which I have yet to conjoin and make disappear.

One of the biggest risks, I believe is like what happened to you post truckers. The stasi just show up at your door and 5 dollar wrench attack your ass.

Every smart phone should run a full node, full lightening node. Completely partitioned and a NFD air-gapped storage device such as the one block is working on.


The civil war was not started because of slavery, it was started b/c of trade rules imposed on south by Washington. Slavery was a means to an end for Lincoln.


Lightning is rather centralized, the dispersion is not ideal. Better code needs to be written to make it much easier for plebs to run nodes.

My preference would be for RFK Jr. To have an actually deeply informed president would be refreshing, RFK Jr, as is clear, is a major threat to the CIA and associated deep state.


A nefarious take on this would be that he simply pulls votes from mainly trump and some from Biden and assures another Biden term. That I think after these past years under the CIA & co, would be a horrific outcome for all of us.


Yes, but why has no state actor started to utilize this, given the current global conflicts?


Hi Jeff, if you look back in history, it’s fairly obvious the most powerful in society have always controlled the money supply (past 300 years at minimum, more like 600 years in reality).

Why have non of the larger states that oppose Western moneyed interest adopted or trade in Bitcoin? Any thoughts here? Thank you


Hi, I was wondering if you could explain how sats are built into the stack pls. How does it flow from primal to nostr to lightening to base layer ? Thank you

With what’s coming next, there are little alternatives to a massive debasement of the purchasing power of fiat, like all of history the state will attempt to plug every escape hatch. I’m balls deep, but one must clear eyed look at the clear and present danger.

Look at the American electorate and tell me you think a fundamentally libertarian ethos will be propagated?

Or is Bitcoin acceptable to the ‘progressives’?

The last line in mandibles, then they increased the flat tax to 11% is a statement on the entire construct of society.

Is the loss rate of Bitcoin a problem? @Lyn Alden if say 25 percent are gone forever, and the slippage is 1-2 percent a year? At what point can sats supply be so low as to nullify it as a medium of exchange?

I’d also love if you could discuss money in relationship to population growth, and also money supply and edge investments/Innovation.

I think there are way less bitcoiners than is often spoken about.

What matters is full node runners,

You’re not a bitcoiner If you just hold some sats on some casino exchange.

You’re not a bitcoiner if you just hold some sats on a coldcard.

You’re a Bitcoiner when you care enough to protect the protocol, and you do that by adding a node to hold a copy of the Leger and Run the protocol.

I’ve run a lightening node for several years now, used to rebalance and work to break even supporting the network.

Have not done this in a while, now channel flows are zero.

With all the gifted coders out there, why not the ability to automate intelligent auto rebalance, max channel dispersion, etc? This would dramatically increase the robustness of the network, and make the concentration of node much less.
