I'm selling the seconds of a day, where the first second after midnight is called "epic", first second of every hour is a "rare" second and the first one of every minute is an "uncommon" second. Then there are the 23 "smooth" seconds, from 01:01:01 up to 23:23:23. And finally there are also the 11:11:11 and 22:22:22 seconds, which are the only 2 "regarded" seconds.

# Halving Fee Chaos

The Bitcoin halving is an anticipated event, one of those Bitcoin holidays that happen every once in a while. Along with Soft Fork Activation and various financial instrument introduction days, it's one of those not-quite-predictable days that occur every few years which give Bitcoiners reason to pay attention and mainstream media to speculate.

This year's halving was much anticipated, as halvings usually are, but we had a bit of an incident that requires some further explanation. The block subsidy decreased from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC on block 840,000 as expected, but what wasn't expected was the 37.626 BTC in fees that came along with it. To give some context, that's easily the highest ratio of fees to block subsidy that Bitcoin has *ever* had. [One transaction](https://mempool.space/tx/152b928e97bb9e874da1bd4abdf766ae0cdc7a2f260dad5542967cb414c58489) paid nearly 8 BTC in fees by itself.

## More Fees

It wasn't just block 840,000 that had high fees, over the next 5 blocks, we had fees of 4.486, 6.99, 16.068, 24.008 and 29.821 BTC respectively. The fees are the highest it's ever been. This situation in Bitcoin is unprecedented.

Up to this point in Bitcoin's history a block whose fees were higher than block subsidy were pretty rare. There were a few in the 50 and 25 BTC eras, but these were mistakes by the user (usually forgetting to put in a change address) and almost all of the fee came from a single error transaction. In the 12.5 BTC subsidy era, there were a few transactions toward the end of 2017 when the cumulative fees exceeded the 12.5 subsidy. In the just-ended 6.25 BTC subsidy era, there were many blocks during the ordinals craze which exceeded the 6.25 BTC subsidy.

Still, these were relatively rare, and most blocks even in the most recently completed era mostly didn't exceeded 1.5 BTC. Yet in this new era of 3.125 BTC subsidy, every single block as of this writing (block 840018) has had fees exceed the subsidy, some by many multiples. So what happened? Why was the halving block getting so much in fees?

## Runes

The reason has to do with a new protocol called Runes. It's yet another colored coins protocol on top of Bitcoin that Casey Rodarmor designed back in [September of 2023](https://rodarmor.com/blog/runes/). The main idea is to allow coin issuance on Bitcoin that uses the UTXO set natively.

Now to back up a bit, colored coins have been around for a long time. The main idea is that you can "color" certain Bitcoin transaction outputs as meaning something in addition to the Bitcoin amount in the output. It could be another "asset" and issued as a token. The first implementation of such a protocol happened 11 *years* ago in 2013 and there have been many attempts since, including MasterCoin (renamed Omni), CounterParty, and more recently, RGB, Taro Assets and BRC-20.

As Rodarmor states in his blog, his motivation for making another protocol is to bring some of the asset issuing from other chains to Bitcoin. To make the launch of this protocol more interesting, Rodarmor decided to start the issuance on block 840,000, leading to the chaos we saw.

## Simplification vs Game Theory

Casey Rodarmor is also the creator of ordinals, and he took one of the concepts, which was to name assets using the capital latin alphabet on Runes. This is a normal fine choice, but what happens when there's a conflict? If two assets have the same name, how do we distinguish between them?

To simplify things, the protocol just looks up what assets exist already and if the name conflicts with something that exists, then the new asset isn't issued. This indeed simplifies the client and gives a global unique name to each asset. Unfortunately, it also makes for some terrible incentives.

## Sniping Asset Issuance

The first incentive problem is that if the transaction issuing the asset is sent out to the Bitcoin mempool, then as that transaction is gossiped to nodes around the network, other observers can snipe the name by getting the transaction in earlier.

Now "earlier" in Bitcoin is a strict concept. Blocks are ordered and transactions within a block are ordered. Whichever comes first gets the symbol and the asset issuance. But if you want to squat on a good symbol name, you can just look for mempool transactions that are attempting to create a new asset and create your own with a bigger fee. That's the essence of sniping.

What's really terrible about a situation like this is that *both* transactions will likely go into the block, but only the first will successfully issue the asset. The second will not issue the asset but *still pay the fee*.

Miners generally order transactions by fee rate, so a higher fee likely means that they'll get to issue the asset. I say likely, because there's a second incentive problem here I'll discuss later. But game-theoretically, both participants are incentivized to increase fees continually to one-up each other. The dynamic is similar to the [One Dollar Auction](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollar_auction), where participants end up making rational choices, but end up with an irrational result (like paying $1.50 for $1). Every loser pays lots in fees for nothing.

## Second order Game Theory

Now given this first-order incentive playing out, it's not a surprise that a lot of issuers purposefully put in a very high fee initially to discourage anyone from trying to snipe the symbol. After all, if your sniping attempt fails, then you lose out on the fees you tried to snipe with. There's also a significant uptick in the usage of RBF for this reason, so that you have the option to one-up the sniper and the sniper to do the same to the issuer.

Note that RBF isn't useful here to *get out* of paying the fee, as a replacement transaction has to pay more than the previous transaction in fees. Either way, the miner ends up with the fees.

Now back to the miner's role. The miner can, if it so desires, give preference to the *lower* fee transaction by including it earlier in the block. Indeed, the incentive is to give miners off-band fees if possible to order transactions in such a way as to win by not revealing how much you've paid. Miners in this protocol have a lot of leverage.

## Conclusion

Runes have resulted in some really high fees, though it's hard to know if the design was intentional or unintentional. What we do know is that Runes have been hyped up for the last few months and have been anticipated for a while, and certainly being one of the first assets issued under the protocol has some marketing value for the eventual goal of getting them listed on an exchange.

Sadly, in addition to the normal scamming of altcoins being completely centralized, there is a deeper cost in terms of block space congestion, where fees of 1000 sats/vbyte are currently not enough to get into certain blocks. The Runes asset issuance has overridden almost every other use case at the moment.

That said, the current rate of Runes issuance is completely unsustainable. Just in the first 18 blocks, there's been over $20M in fees spent, most of that in Runes issuance. At this rate, Runes issuers would be spending $150M a day or $1B a week. I honestly can't see them doing this for much longer than a month or two. In the meantime, it must be great to be a miner finding these blocks.

A stack equal to the single block reward for this era (6.25), is approximately equivalent to…

-All newly issued BTC during a day in 2048-52, or

-All newly issued BTC during a month in 2068-2072, or

-All newly issued BTC during a year in 2084-88, or

-All newly issued BTC during the halving period of 2092-2096, or

-All newly issued BTC after the year 2100

If you have children, then all the years listed above are likely during your grandchildren’s lives.

Plan accordingly.


I have not publicly spoken much or asked questions about this for a few reasons. Firstly because I consider you to be a personal friend and I feel that you try to do the right thing in each of the projects and organizations that you are involved with. You helped our project out in numerous ways, especially early on when our core concept was brand new and still being proven out.

Neither opensats nor dorsey owes our project anything. I have been very clear about this, and I moreover feel that opensats is a net good for both the bitcoin and the nostr communities. But I have also avoided asking questions about the status of grants, much less about potential conflicts of interest, because I did not want to spoil Keith's chances at a grant, or negatively impact anyone else who might apply in the future for a SeedSigner-related grant. I think this speaks to the same self-censorship dynamics that jb55 has referenced.

You insinuate in the above that there has been at least one vote on a SeedSigner related grant. This would be news to me because I had the understanding that applications related to SeedSigner were being considered but were deactivated when it became known that Keith had received funding from the HRF.

While a required threshold of "yes" votes for a successful grant is of course entirely reasonable, "no" votes (especially emphatic ones from persons of influence) can cut quite effectively in the opposite direction. nvk's repeated, persistent, very public criticisms of our project communicate something like personally motivated animus rather than any sort of good-faith conscientious objection. Even were he to openly abstain from a formal vote on SeedSigner related grants (which would be in line with opensats' publicly established policies) other board members are likely to be influenced by his numerous public statements. It's honestly troubling that someone running a company that embraces "source available" as an attempt to rebrand what open source means, and who has referred to good/faith FOSS proponents as "commies", should be in a position to decide who does, or who does not, receive open source grant funding.

Some very legitimate questions are being raised about the parties providing funding, their motivations, the entities receiving funding (and those who aren't), the specific tech they're working on, and those who are directly (and indirectly) involved in the funding decision making process. I don't think these questions are being asked because of prototypical bitcoiner contrarian suspicion, but rather are the result of an evolving pattern of observable events; some might call what they are seeing as potential "aligned malincentives". The opensats funding dynamics and scale may also be arriving at a point where larger structural dynamics are coming into play and a "just trust me" approach to public relations and organizational ethics becomes increasingly less and less viable.

So where from here? I don't have a good answer and none of these are my decisions to make. Hopefully opensats just has a short-term public perception challenge that can be resolved with better communication and more transparency. But bitcoiners are a skeptical bunch and these questions aren't going away if they aren't addressed.

Lastly -- I believe that you personally have a good heart and I'm rooting for your success.

(NB - I am speaking here under the exorbitant privilege of operating this account as SeedSigner "the man"; my comments may not reflect the opinions of all, or even of any, of our contributors.)


Looking forward to the celebration.

Sure, but $200 is less than $1000. So it's easier to justify for shits and giggles and a learning experience.


Yes, but also very educational. Nowadays I would go for a NerdMiner or BitAxe if you want to learn, this price point is very steep for the educational value. Nontheless, they're solidly built devices. I have an Apollo I and used it as a room heater until energy prices really made it not worth it anymore. Before that they were break-even for me.

These are more efficient, and should run break-even at around $0.10/kWh at current price/difficulty (before halving, 0.05 after). Don't expect them to pay for themselves, unless you have free energy. S9s are a lot cheaper, but also less efficient, so you need even freeer energy with those.


One party can then steal the funds. Both need to have the possibility to shift funds, but not everything unilaterally.

So today when i pick up my daughters from school today. The oldest is all excited with a piece of paper in her hand. I asked her what it was, she said it was her permission slip to go on her field trip to go to the Zoo.

I proceed to read the note. The teacher sent this note out to ask the parents that she wanted to take the kids to the Zoo. Due to the PTA board being dissolved for some reason she couldnt get ANY funding approved for the trip. So she was asking all the parents if they could support paying for the trip for their child and if this was too burdensome for any family to do she'd understand. I felt bad for my daughter cuz i know she seemed super excited for this trip to the zoo.

The trip costs $21 dollars per kid. Her class size is 32 students. Can we raise a million or so sats here to pay for the entire class to go?

Id be forever grateful to be able to pay for her class to go and help the parents out there that cant afford to be able to spend this money for their child. I dont ask for satoshis like this but i think this is a worthwhile idea to do for my child and hwr class to experience the zoo.

Just looked at a WiFi analyser. Funny thing was, there is a BlockClock about 2 feet way, with it's AP still enabled. Almost between the actual AP and the BitAxe. So maybe that was a pretty solid interfering signal.

Channel is completely clear now, -48 dB, next competing network is at -86 dB.


The AP is 3 feet away, so probably not signal power.

With RSSI and PMF disabled, it's reduced to every 2 - 3 hours. I'm logging the stats from the bitaxe on a separate machine now, see if something weird happens just before it reconnects.

Looking at the merkle branches that mining pools send to miners as part of stratum jobs, it's clear that the BTCcom pool, Binance pool, Poolin, EMCD, Rawpool, and possibly Braiins* have exactly the same template and custom transaction prioritization as AntPool.

 https://image.nostr.build/33d5ac0f59082e8fbb5d02ccd9a50dccea43327ae97e10db06effaede7f7c064.jpg

Stratum v1 jobs include (parts of) the coinbase transaction and the merkle branches a miner needs to compute the merkle root. If all branches are equal across pools, the block template is exactly the same.

This is a smaller merkle-tree with the stratum job branches highlighted.

 https://image.nostr.build/dab683037cc63f0e4805ae16561800dd342dd53dbb646c91e6c066044a51b2d6.jpg

Here, branch0 is the txid of the first transaction in the block after the coinbase.

In the AntPool/Binance/BTCcom/.. template, it's a manually prioritized transaction paying 9.03 sat/vbyte https://mempool.space/tx/c938e8027a7fba782a092695a53d37654021bf20df71ca91b4a6daa9198b0c73

Many of the other pools didn't prioritize a transaction and included the highest feerate transaction https://mempool.space/tx/96608dc747677d6dfbc3a2b37f8a0146abae132799b13c130066bd3716fdf91a paying 301 sat/vbyte. ViaBTC prioritized another transaction and has a vastly different template.

This indicates that F2Pool currently is not using the AntPool templates, even if they share the the same custody provider. We know from multiple occasions that F2Pool has been building their own templates (https://b10c.me/o11, https://b10c.me/o9, https://b10c.me/o8)

Note that SigmaPool and SecPool both seem to share the same template (distinct from AntPools template). Two names, but probably one pool.

Some overlap in the first branches of distinct pools is expected as these branches consist of few (usually high feerate) transactions. For example, Ocean's "default" and "core" templates overlap up to branch3. At least the first 15 tx (2⁴ - 1) in the template are equal.

* similar to EMCD in the picture, Braiins sometimes differs from AntPool in the later branches of the template. This could indicate they're only helping with AntPools transaction accelerator and directly syncing with AntPools mempool, causing occasional differences in templates.

I've heard speculation about this all being liked to an FPPS partnership with AntPool/Bitmain.

Bitmain insures against bad pool luck but you have to use Bitmains templates/transaction prioritization and pay the mining reward to the insurer for later distribution.

Essentially a pool of pools and a lot of mining centralization.

No, it's on a much smaller timescale. This is 20 minutes on a BitAxe, that's already a 10% difference, and it keeps going up and down. Temperature and voltages look completely stable. It must be something about the calculation.

Although what I did notice is that the measuring points are sometimes further apart than other times, so maybe it's something about the template distribution? Lots of tx's on the top of the fee range coming in makes a lot of new templates, which makes it slow down?

Disabled it. 🤞

Not sure if there's anything in the BitAxe/ESP32 side that could improve this. I have a 3 AP mesh in my house, and disabling all these things could impede with normal usage quite a bit.

Initial run doesn't look too good. Several reconnects/restarts within an hour. Now running for ~90 minutes, so far so good.

I find it strange it's on an irregular interval. If it's power management or something like that, I would expect reconnects on a fixed interval, maybe?

Does #BitAxe have an issue with holding WiFi connection or does it simply reset frequently as part of how it operates?

My NerdMiner shows it’s been connected for 200+hrs whereas my #BitAxe devices all seem to reconnect from anywhere between 10 mins to a few hours usually.

It’s not such a big problem but it does reset my shares count per device which is a bit frustrating as I do enjoy watching the count progress.

Could it be a software issue with these devices?

All devices are up to date on 2.1.3


Thanks! I'll have a go at this, apparently it's a pretty common issue for the espressif chip, but haven't found a clear solution yet.

I have to test it more, one thing I noticed in the current version is that when the upload is done the cursor moves to the end of the inserted URL. This disrupts writing a note, as my (and I guess a lot of other people) flow is:

 * Make photo/create meme/right-click save image from somewhere
 * Open Amethyst
 * Start new note
 * Press add media button
 * Start upload
 * Begin typing accompanying text

With this flow, the writing is interrupted when the upload is done.

This happens almost always, as I usually type longer than the upload takes. Unless it's only a GM :-)

Hope this helps!

Bloom filter would be nice. But I don't know of an easy interoperable way of representing them.


Not sure where it goes wrong. REQ seems fine, just the sub doesn't return anything, most of the time.


Symptoms are that initial load is fine - or at least, looks fine, I can't verify it actually loaded notes from all follow. But after intial load, no new notes come in. It seems most relays are not willing to activate the subscription. Primal web seems to be working marginally better, but when using Amethyst it's broken, so there might also be some difference between clients.

Not sure how to go about unloading dead users. And it's circumventing the issue, it should just work™ with a few thousand follows.

I'll see if I can torture the wine.

In most countries they can block access to know relays and also require AppStores to remove nostr apps in that country.

The US shuts things down by seizing domain names. China and a few other countries can do deep packet inspection to block kinds of traffic, it wouldn’t be too hard to see that some traffic is nostr, especially because a MITM attack might be invisible if the nostr client doesn’t alert the user.

There are nostr relays on the tor network and that is A LOT harder to block. As far as I know there is no union router service that loads a nostr web app configured to use tor relays. That’s not very hard to do actually.

Blocking nostr is hard. Making it dificult for non-technical users to get access to nostr is much easier.

New here, first post! #introductions

Gonna take my time to figure out which profiles & feeds I want to follow and zap around a bit. For now I wanna share two ego-checking lessons learned from joining Primal & Nostr, that I just wanna put out there in case it helps anyone:

1) When you create an account, dont forget to store the private key somehow, before signing out of the app! I incorrectly assumed the key was stored on my phone and/or I'd be able to sign back in to the app via a passcode or something. Locked myself out of account #1 that way 😂

2) When you create an account, dont forget to follow at least some profiles during the creation process! If you dont, you wont be able to (easily) follow accounts afterwards. This caused me to end up with account #2 from which I could not follow people.

Fortunately the Primal team was very helpful and explained what I was doing wrong along the way.

So here I am, on account #3, ready to read, zap & write 🤩💪

Discovering #nostr feels amazing. From the surface it seems easy but with what you can build upon and using this protocol..well seems a bit overwhelming. Understanding how it works and learning about it is fascinating to say the least.
Decentralized access to information that is censorship resistant..feed curation, lists of people you want to interact with. This is next level and with integration of #bitcoin Lightning payments..future is bright. Glad to be here in such an early stage.

We're all introverts and moving to our own private relays.


That's a surprising little amount of code. Does it multiplex requests and subscriptions to all read_relays and deduplicates events before sending them to the client?

How difficult would it be to add the gossip model to a proxy relay? E.g. keeping track of which relays follows are using, and fetch notes from those relays.


No idea, I haven't switched yet. I have a Pixel 6.


I keep following more people until stuff completely breaks and it starts improving.

If you follow someone, gossip will look at the relay configuration of that user and fetches their notes from those relays.

Non-gossip clients only fetch notes from relays you have defined. So if someone you follow ends up on different relays, you no longer see their posts.

Gossip helps decentralisation, as users can spin up their own micro-relays, and still have their notes found.


A de-escalating comment in all caps is kinda confusing.

So the only note that needs to be broadcast is kind 0.


Are we willing gossip adoption into existence?


A personal relay should implement the gossip model. Have the client only point to your personal relay, and that forwards to the world and gossips around to fetch notes.


"controlled by several local offices" sounds a lot like a relay.

As of January 2024, bitcoin mining is using 0.0094% of an Earth sized Kardashev Scale I civilisation.

This is up from 0.00164% in January 2019.

Next step is to extrapolate the data to see when bitcoin forces humanity into a Scale I civilisation.

And yes, more energy is always preferable to less energy. They conflate energy efficiency with energy starvation.


Welcome to the memeverse.

https://m.primal.net/HmlT.png


One big difference is the cost for users to follow someone.

In the old world, following a user to a different platform was prohibitively expensive for almost all, as you would lose everything. It goes against the network effect, and a ban from  a major platform means people have to follow to a smaller network.

With Nostr, following a user to another relay is almost completely free, and with some elbow grease, can be completely automated away.

Fact is that there has not been a major test in this regard, nobody with a large following has been forced off relays, and if that doesn't happen, this is not a good comparison. Maybe the nature of Nostr is such that this will never happen, as trying to censor people by forcing relay operators to block them is a futile exercise to start with.


Thanks, interesting links!

I knew https://www.shadowstats.com/, which basically keeps calculating CPI as how it was calculated in the last century.

Do you have a link to what you discussed with Daniel? Maybe I'm in this too long to not really see the usability issues anymore. When I joined, everything was barely working and one was lucky to not nuke your account and to have anything loading at all. It came a long way in not even 2 years now.

And the beauty is that with Nostr, people can scratch their own itch. If things are not working as expected, some people can actually jump in and fix it. This was always possible with software, and that's why open source software is where it's at right now. But that took decades. And this is the first time something like this is properly possible with a communications network.

Think in years and decades. Not everything can be and has to be fixed now. We have time on our side.

It took a good 2 years of effort to get any traction on Twitter, until the algorithms made it completely opaque and engagement went into a freezer.

Nostr was quite a bit quicker, but the world is smaller here. But it does take effort. Biggest difference is discovery of people, that's simpler, but harder. The only algorithm you have is what people you follow repost, and maybe hashtags, but that is a hit or miss for me.

I've seen occasions that people siphon funds over from one account to another by placing orders deep in the order book. You'll lose a lot of funds due to slippage and other people's orders, and works better on really thin books.

F.e. if you got access to an exchange account, but don't have access to withdrawal functionality, you can use this to move funds over to an account you control. That's in line with the fact that BitMEX closed some accounts for withdrawals, probably from accounts on the other end of these trades.

We're so early. With basic financial education. And with common sense. And basic life skills. And a whole lot more.

It was fine up to 2000, after that stuff gets wonky.


I was denied the possibility to verify, therefore I did not trust it.

The only thing I did was to say: I need more data, therefore I will wait with a decision. For this, I was ostracized.

Luckily society didn't have leverage over me, so I could sit it out.


Now I am become debt, destroyer of worlds.

I can see the potential, but I need to find my friends if this is going to work

December 10th, 1446 – After hesitating for several weeks, Sultan Murad II, of the Ottoman Empire, destroys the Hexamilion wall, in an assault that includes cannons. Murad and the Ottoman governor of Thessaly, Turakhan Beg, ravage the Peloponnese Peninsula at will, with the Sultan devastating the northern shore, while Glarentza and Turakhan raid in the interior. The Despotate of the Morea is turned into an Ottoman vassal state.

Who's going to Adopting Bitcoin Arnhem and/or NostrDam?


With amethyst I can see the 21 as well, but my zap doesn't show up.

Which wallet?


Ash that's funny. So it seems you're very susceptible to ear worms, you only need a bit of a song to have to stuck in your head. Is it actually with the music, or only the lyrics?

I know the effect, but it's rare for me. And then it's more the music, not the lyrics. But I pay more attention, or feel more of the music and less of the lyrics of songs anyways.


I absolutely need a list, but have outsourced making that list to my partner. Without the list I would forget at least 1 or 2 items.

I find it really difficult up to the point of stress inducing to think of stuff to cook, especially if it would be multiple days.

We have a food delivery service that delivers fresh ingredients for several meals once a week. That's my rescue.

I'm not an intuitive cook, I have to follow a recipe. But slowly getting better, more intuitive, after years of cooking.


I guess I'm somewhere in the middle of a continuous unstoppable stream and complete silence. My resting state, when not actively engaged in something, and no stress impact would be no inner monologue though.

Having a constant radio playing is one I haven't heard before, excuse the pun, very interesting. I wonder what would happen if one would have a constant visual stream, or taste/touch stream. If that would impact the ability to function more.

Maybe that's more into the ADHD/ADD region.


Oh that is wild, so completely different.

If I'm home alone, I always put some music on. Not loud, as background. Without it feels uncomfortable. Too quiet.

As for picturing an apple, if I close my eyes, I can see the apple, with it's shades of color. I can see how it looks in sunlight with a shadow, or illuminated by a flashlight in a dark room. I can pick it up, rotate it, pull the stem out bu twisting it and take an imaginary bite. However, I can't really put thoughts into the taste or smell though, other than the basic sweet/sour. I can imagine the texture of the bite, somewhat.


Funny thing is, drugs didn't do much for me. At least, not weed. Other people around me said that it relaxed them, which puzzled me as I was already relaxed. It had more subtle vision related effects.


That sounds very exhausting. Do you want your brain to be quiet sometimes?

And other senses, touch, taste or smell? Can you envision them, by lack of a better word?


The little scraps of value you could save are inflated away into oblivion.


But is everything you think through your inner monologue?


Has this already reached Nostr?

I have trouble figuring out what exactly is meant here. My own idea is that you can have several manifestations of inner senses. You can have them in word, picture, sound, taste and even smell or touch.

I know people that have a constant inner monologue, a non-stop stream of words in their head and have trouble quieting this, reverting to meditation or other relaxation or deviation methods to get some inner peace.

My head is quiet by default. However, I can voice things inside my head but by no means it's continuous, I can reason about things and voice them internally, but a lot of thought processes are abstract, or wordless. They just appear.

I can also see internal images, and to lesser degree taste and touch. Someone I know can remember taste, and describe something she ate or drank, f.e. a wine, from months or even years ago. This is  unimaginable for me.

It was a figure of speech, not a literal fragmentation of the internet. But of course, if the rules of the internet are diverging enough over different jurisdictions, the effects are the same.

My understanding and appreciation of bitcoin has been shaped by a handful of essays that brilliantly capture its unique properties and potential.

Here's my reading list:

⛪The Bitcoin Reformation by Tuur Demeester
"The 21st century emergence of Bitcoin, encryption, the internet, and millennials are more than just trends; they herald a wave of change.."

👑Masters and Slaves of Money by Robert Breedlove
"An exclusive right to produce money without regard for competitive market pressures is an apparatus of enslavement"

🥇Bitcoin Obsoletes All Other Money by Parker Lewis
"It does not matter how complex bitcoin is. At the end of the day, bitcoin becomes an A/B test. The need for money is real and individuals will converge on the form of money that best fulfills the function of exchange."

🏎Economics of Bitcoin as a Settlement Network by Saifedean Ammous
“Using Bitcoin for consumer purchases is akin to driving a Concorde jet down the street to pick up groceries: a ridiculously expensive waste of an astonishing tool."

💯The Bitcoin Central Bank’s Perfect Monetary Policy by Pierre Rochard
"The BCB enforces the strictest deposit regulations in the world by requiring full reserves for all accounts."

🐂The Bullish Case for Bitcoin by Vijay Boyapati
"If Bitcoin exists for 20 years, there will be near-universal confidence that it will be available forever, much as people believe the Internet is a permanent feature of the modern world."

🏴☠Bitcoin Becomes the Flag of Technology by Balaji
"Bitcoin is not about accomplishing change through folk activism. It's a network-based phenomenon which has accomplished a revolution in monetary policy through a billion private actions."

🛑Can Governments Stop Bitcoin? by Alex Gladstein
"The rich and powerful will always design systems that benefit them before everyone else. The genius of Bitcoin is to take advantage of that.."

⏱Bitcoin is Time by Gigi
"if we want to have trustless money in the digital realm, we must remove any entity that creates and manages timestamps and any single entity that is in charge of time itself."

😈Everyone’s A Scammer by Michael Goldstein
"Long term investors should use Bitcoin as their unit of account and every single investment should be compared to the expected returns of Bitcoin."

🛶Bitcoin is Venice by Allen Farrington
"Modern banking is the legacy of a problem that technology has since solved. [Bitcoin] is a foundation to scale the next great phase of economic progress."

🖨Stone Ridge Shareholder Letter (2020) by Ross Stevens
"You can stay on the Fiat Standard, in which some people get to produce unlimited new units of money for free, just not you. Or opt in to the Bitcoin Standard, in which no one gets to do that, including you."

📡Bitcoin Miners Beware by StopAndDecrypt
"No matter who you are, or how big your company is, your transaction won’t propagate if it’s invalid."

🧩Bitcoin Is Worse Is Better by Gwern
"The interesting thing is that all the pieces were in place for at least 8 years before Satoshi’s publication.."

🎓Why the Yuppie Elite Dismiss Bitcoin by Jesse Myers
"When you’re in the ivory tower, you think the term 'ivory tower' is a silly misrepresentation of your very normal life; when you’re no longer in the ivory tower, you realize how willfully out of touch you were with the world."

🧰Decentralization: Why Dumb Networks are Better by Andreas Antonopolous
"Bitcoin allows any application to be developed independently, without permission, on the edge of the network."

🐚Shelling Out: The Origins of Money by Nick Szabo
"if money is not just coins or notes issued by a government under legal tender laws, but rather can be a wide variety of objects – then just what is money anyway?"

🪨It’s the Settlement Assurances, Stupid by Nic Carter
"You can create something which looks cosmetically similar to Bitcoin, but you cannot replicate the settlement assurances which derive from the costliness of the ledger."

🦈The Greatest Game by Jeff Booth
"The best way for people to understand how important Bitcoin is for the future, is to first understand how the existing system amplifies insecurity and how a change to a different monetary policy would produce infinitely better results."

⚖Bitcoin Reveals Exchange Rate Manipulation and Detects Capital Controls by Gina Pieters
"Bitcoin can approximate unofficial exchange rates which, in turn, can be used to detect both the existence and the magnitude of the distortion caused by capital controls and exchange rate manipulations."

🫂Bitcoin and Me by Hal Finney
"When Satoshi announced Bitcoin on the cryptography mailing list, he got a skeptical reception at best. Cryptographers have seen too many grand schemes by clueless noobs."

What is interesting is that this coincides with the rise of a uniform world money, that only needs a very thin line of digital communications to work globally.

The internet is dead, long live the internet.


With the TikTok bill in the U.S. and DMA in the EU it feels like the uniformity of the internet is breaking up. Before it was mainly China that had it's own separate ecosystem, but there was not that much interaction between China and the rest of the world anyways. But now a rift is also opening up between the U.S. internet and the EU internet. There is no longer one internet.


Same for mobile phones.

I wouldn't recommend a HC4 anymore, if you want to have a SBC system, there's faster options for less money available now. Have lost track a bit, but something with a RK3588 would be quite a bit faster, or maybe the Pi 5. Or go the refurbished SFF PC route.

When people ask me for price predictions, I have the following answer:

I can give you a price prediction, and it doesn't matter how high.

I can also give you a time prediction.

But I can't give them together.

It will go to 100k. It will go to a million. It will go to infnity.

I just can't say when that will be. But it will.
