 Coming  together??? I'm trying to split us apart.  
 Can someone make a list of all the "progressive bitcoiners" on here? I want to be submerged in the content.  
 You're a fag 
 Bitcoin isn't a person though  
 Yeah... kinda 
 Feels like a lot more action here after #Nostriga and #BH2024 🚀 
 I'm on here because all the progressive bitcoiners left X. They can run but they can't hide!  
 Drop the foundation bullshit stuff and I'm sure nostr:nprofile1qqsw3znfr6vdnxrujezjrhlkqqjlvpcqx79ys7gcph9mkjjsy7zsgygpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz8thwden5te0dehhxarj9ekh2arfdeuhwctvd3jhgtnrdakj7qgkwaehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvshspg7dju will hand deliver one to you.  
 If the nostr critics on X actually used nostr enough to understand it, they would understand why ... 
 LFG 
 LETS FUCKING GO.

IT IS ALL COMING TOGETHER FAM.

 All actors  funded by theft are enemies to humanity. The EU commission isn't special.   
 Some are more ruthless but none of them are kosher. 
Most people view the "bill of rights" as freedom. I view it as slavery.  
 What was the opportunity cost of trying to get one of those mimblewimble tokens off the ground?  
 The quality of people in the Nostr space is pretty mindblowing to me as a mere Bitcoin pleb.

 OTC markets still running out of btc?  
 Sir... just because it's pruneable doesn't make it good news. If everyone was running pruned nodes then there are no nodes on the network willing to bootstrap new nodes. 


The only good news is that some people will be poorer after this.  
 I see the "it's prunable so it's okay" argument all the time. People don't realize that we NEED full nodes that aren't pruned.... if majority of nodes get pruned the network will eventually die.  
 In yesterday's news... Bitcoin isn't money.

 I have the complete  opposite view. Banks should be allowed to do whatever the fuck they want. That includes collecting or not collecting information.

 Let the people chose who they want to do business with.  
 Politicians shouldn't be able to force how people want to run their business. The market should determine winners and losers... not the state.

 Beautiful.

Long time coming! Congrats! 
 In 8 years the block reward is going to be sub 1 bitcoin… but you’re bearish lol 
 *the block subsidy.

The reward might be way more than that.  
 And what really matters is the value of the reward.  
 Yeah. I’m thinking we’re going to win. 
 What are you winning??  
 Yeah, I call bullshit on that one
