Maybe an unpopular opinion:
Bitcoin was created to bring people together — its main message is consensus.
So we’re here to embrace that idea, not to divide communities.

5 critical questions for the digital age:
1. How do you store data?
2. How do you compute it?
3. How do you store & pay with assets?
4. How do you share info?
5. How do you ID yourself/others online?

Recently, I was concerned to learn that big banks are now approaching major Bitcoin miners to purchase directly from them instead of the market.
It seems likely that their next steps could involve acquiring mining operations themselves, which is worrying.

From Churchill by Himself, 574:
Many forms of Government have been tried and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that
democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time;
but there is a broad feeling in our country that the people should rule and that public opinion, expressed by all constitutional means, should shape, guide, and control the actions of Ministers who are their servants and not their masters...

Already in 1976, F. A. Hayek stated that "one of the most effective measures for protecting the freedom of the individual might indeed be to have constitutions prohibiting all peacetime restrictions on transactions in any kind of money or precious metals."
By "any kind of money," he meant "any kinds of media of exchange, be it some commodity or money issued by another agency, domestic or foreign."
And in 1984, in one of the interviews, he noted that bankers don't understand the idea of currency competition, where anyone can issue their currency. And that's why we keep treading on the same rake.
https://youtu.be/s-k_Fc63tZI?t=205
PS 31 years later, Hayek's ideas have been implemented in bitcoin, but financial bros don't know anything about it.

I'm not sure that the relays are ready to retrieve multisig. Anyways it shines really promising.
What I thought was to put all relays on a chain (bitcoin or sidechain) so they add some crucial data simultaneously.
For example, if the user wants to have 2FA - this data would be added to the next block so all relays accept messages from this user only signed with 2FA.

If so, it will have no sense, of course.
On the other hand, if it could be used as a second layer proof?🙄 But then any activity should be signed with both the private key and TOTP, I believe. And also it is questionable if you can have several authenticatee relays...
So it will make no sense, or?

2023-02-10 13:21:20 UTC
