what if the role of bitcoin was to create the electricity infrastructure for ai to thrive? without the pow mining farms and the experience with home gpu mining rigs, this worldwide slop couldn’t happen

Give it a try. I guess you need an invite code from the devs, as it is still experimental. But this is the kind of stuff I want to see on Bitcoin.

bip110 is a coordinated psyop to get more bitcoiners to try zcash and it works amazingly well

What book am I missing?

i respect bmw cars, but i would never drive one because i dislike bmw drivers i sort of like rolex watches, but i wound never buy one because of the snobbery that comes with it i love bitcoin, but if i discovered it today with this spiteful & divided community i’d stay away social clubs matter. and bitcoin used to be friendly, inclusive, hopeful. we gotta promote a new culture and i think post-maximalism might be it

How to be respected in the Bitcoin community: build nothing, contribute with nothing but memes and bullish price predictions How to be hated in the Bitcoin community: experiment with new tech outside of Bitcoin or propose some improvement without Blockstream’s blessing 🙃

Man, there’s so much cool stuff that’s being built on Bitcoin and for Bitcoin It’s a shame that we somehow nurtured a culture where BTC is only for HODLing Because we are living in the golden era of Bitcoin research & development The P2P electronic cash dream is still alive!

“Hey Vlad you’re such a loser who’s now giving up on Bitcoin to pivot to AI” No dude, I’m just learning how to use the new revolutionary technology that’s shaping our time I was one of the first kids in my neighborhood to have a home computer I was the first in my social circles to become interested in Bitcoin And I was one of the first maximalists who figured out that the Bitcoin network won’t get any significant upgrades to add privacy and contracts Gotta live up to the expectations, level up my knowledge, get ready for the future Millions of people will be begging for welfare checks from their governments when their job gets automated I really don’t want to get left behind.

Paralelni Polis is dead horrible news for bitcoin adoption in Europe This was the first cafe to accept bitcoin payments in 2014 Had a coworking space where you could meet hackers & anarchists Hosted hundreds of conferences & community meetups Nurtured open source startups Displayed the works of underground artists Sold overpriced drinks and food that everyone gladly bought to support the movement Even mobilized the community during the pandemic to have a huge remote conference with dozens of volunteering hosts and guests If you were a bitcoiner who came to visit Prague, Paralelni Polis would let you sleep in their dorm for free. If no dorm was available, they had couches too Now it’s dead. Much like bitcoin adoption in Europe. In the beginning, they would force all cafe customers to buy bitcoin to pay for the drinks. There was a Bitcoin ATM at the entrance, but the employees would usually offer to trade bitcoin for cash in person to avoid the 10% fee. In recent years, Paralelni Polis rebranded as Second Culture. Started accepting credit cards for payment, cut down on the number of events, faced an identity crisis that ultimately led to its demise. Even some OGs who basically built the place didn’t want to visit anymore. Call it local drama and politics, but it was bad for everybody involved. The worst of outcomes happened and bitcoin culture is now crippled. I feel sorry for the newcomers who will never experience the joy of walking into this place to experience a true bitcoin economy. Heavily ideological, but somehow functional. Now Paralelni Polis and its incumbent Institute of Cryptoanarchy are dead. What remains inside is an unplugged ATM and the Monero logo on the door – a hint that the dream of peer to peer electronic cash has moved elsewhere. Now we never spend, shake hands with bankers and deny the existence of a second best while technically losing by every significant metric. Good night, sweet prince!
