Right as we might start to be having real consensus around CTV + CSFS these insipid debates about nothing keep popping up. Feels suspicious. If you wanted to bring an open decentralized project to a halt this would be a good way to do it.

People who change history are always by definition “weird”. If they were conformists they wouldn’t change anything.
Guys those many years of countless jokes that Bitcoiners are a bunch of socially retarded autists weren’t just jokes, it’s funny because it’s true. Many of the smartest engineers and scientists are socially inept and poor communicators who believe wild shit outside of their core competency. That’s not just Bitcoin, but consistent throughout history. Isaac Newton is one of the greatest scientists ever and his family suppressed his many writings on alchemy and the occult because of how insane it sounded and they didn’t want him to be discredited. In the modern age with social media nothing about people has changed, you’re just now more aware of reality.
Pensions by governments and large employers are largely just fraud to convince workers to accept lower salaries now in exchange for the promise of a higher future payout … which they then underfund and rug you
US needs a constitutional amendment to have a hard cap well below where it is today. This is insane. Government workers are largely parasites
GM! I’m happy to pay in BTC and support BTC only companies. But static pricing in sats is not workable at this stage of adoption. For now we need dynamic pricing based on USD converted into sats. Almost everyone is still earning in USD and even when everyone gets paid in BTC, the amount of sats will likely decline over time. Expecting me to pay 40%+ more than a few months back when the good or service is essentially unchanged is a poor value proposition.

This nice grandpa is crushing it. Keep winning fam!
Likely increasing the pro cyclical effect miners have had (buying in bull and selling in bears)

GM! A few months into Strike Bill Pay + Privacy.com to pay all bills and online purchases. Conclusion: pretty great and will keep using. I would love for BTC direct payment to become more widespread, but until then I think this is the best sovereignty minded personal finance combo out there.
Here for it 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah you can always make a fair argument either way. However I think a new device with zero real world track record and whose features are still being developed and are ESP32 based should probably be cheaper. At least to start until all features are done and they have proven out more. If it’s this versus coldcard MK4,l for basically the same cost, I find this a tough sell until the Frost benefits prove out in the wild over time.
LMFAO
This shit is stressful af
*For 3 devices assuming a standard 2 of 3 setup
Very exciting and big accomplishment, but woof almost $500 is a rough price point

That’s true, but the consensus has always been Bitcoin is freedom money for enemies. Not you get banned as soon as we find your transaction type annoying. 🤷
We also should not root for a world where miners can band together and block transactions as that means uncensorable money is gone, and that’s the whole premise of BTC. If miners hate me for whatever reason and can band together to block my transaction, then BTC has been rendered pointless. This is the very foundation of freedom money.
That is I guess at least theoretically possible but objectively not currently happening and miners have every incentive to include them as they can extract extra revenue from the MEV opportunity this presents. In order for that to theoretically happen you have to assume every miner will be economically irrational. Most miners and thus most hash rate currently accept out of band transactions. There are collective out of band systems like the mempool accelerator and mining pool specific ones such as those by Mara and ViaBTC.
