Freedom. Decentralization. Unity.
For all the arguments Bitcoiners have to divide us, we have to stay united in wanting more freedom and more decentralization.
But still… it’s Bitcoin NOT crypto!
Ross was allowed on stage because prison broke him and he is now helping sell "Freedom Inc" to the masses; he is no longer a warrior; his voice is quite weak and we need someone stronger to lead by example; that's not to say i am discrediting Ross; i am discrediting the entire commercialized "Bitcoin movement," which is not a Freedom movement, but a "My Freedom" movement;
we are on our own now, and always have been;

What’s the difference between Freedom and My Freedom?
reply
"My Freedom" isn't actual freedom of any kind. It's just sloganeering without actually using Bitcoin... that is, without the self-sovereignty part just so you can 'feel good' or 'get rich' somehow. It's the 'commercialization' without ever actually using Bitcoin or buying something with it.

Got it. Number Go Up isn’t freedom

That comment caught my attention too. He had help from a lot of other crypto projects and I think it's reasonable to be thankful for that.
I understood it as yes, anyone has the freedom to choose which ever "block chain", but you really want to choose Bitcoin as money. They're welcome to be a kinda live testnet for Bitcoin. Anything good coming out of it can be considered to bring into Bitcoin.

But that's just the problem no? People don't actually want to use Bitcoin they're just here for the ngu and it doesn't work does it

This conference is just a corporate thing which the hosts want to be a profitable show even if it deviates the whole meaning of it.
reply
All conferences are for profit
If it’s successful enough then it loses its original purpose
Any successful indie music festival eventually goes mainstream

The USA cannot implement a CBDC, unlike autocracies where they can. Because CBDCs remove monetary issuance from the hands of the private bankers who own the Fed Res. So stable coins may be a way of maintaining demand for USTs...and enabling swift digital trade payments...and maintaining the USDs dominance in grey and black markets.
Can 'crypto' be co-opted by the US military industrial combine and the Jewish bankers cartel lurking behind it - hell yes.
Governments remain in control and while Bitcoin provides a glimpse of true freedom...
Most people do not want to be free- but instead choose servitude to the nation state and bankers...because its more comfortable, and safer.
If you want to be free be prepared to suffer, be imprisoned if not die for the cause- and most people simply are not.
Most people are being farmed by the fiat debt slavery bankers cartel.

I'm new to the math of bitcoin but can someone explain how ASIC Miners creating a monopoly on mining is "decentralization" exactly?
reply
I got this.
ASIC is not a company or brand. It’s “application specific integrated circuits.” Like CPU or Central Processing Unit is not a company or brand.
Intel as a company might have a monopoly on producing CPU chips, but anyone can produce them.
Chinese Bitmain Antminer almost had a monopoly on producing ASIC miners, but there’s more expensive American options like Whatsminer.

nah I know what an ASIC is lol, I am curious about the CPU power centralization to huge mining farms that use a lot of ASICs. we like to speak about decentralization yet this is somehow okay?
idk if mentioning monero is allowed but they have a nice way of preventing monopoly of huge mining farms.
reply
You’re right that mining pools exist
