Last Notes
I mean, Idk how it works, but how could it even be enforced? How would they even know?
This is the way.
Any serious business will be Multi-coin/Multi-Payment but give the incentive to pay in sound money over unsound money.
It’s good for business, and good for customers.
It enables everyone to make personal choices.

Oh noes! Bitcoin is down today…and it’s also worth $0!

In my case, I went through a non-profit credit counseling group that negotiated it to 0% or extremely low on a payment plan for me.
But I also usually outperform on my investments what the APRs were.
But yes tackling debt is important.
I pay $156/week for my debt repayment.
3 packs left! 🤞🏼❤️

Wowowow I had a fresh one a while ago from my pecan farmer and they are AMAZING
I invest about $400/month but only save about $90 to $150/month.
Numbers aren’t precise but approximate.
But once I get my debt paid off, and presumably a better position at my job, I’ll probably be doing quite ok.
Except, you are not the judge of what that continuity is and truly looks like. I'm not either.
The successors of the apostles are.
To put it in maybe a simpler way
The proofs are on the chain, we can go back and look at them. But in the past (or now or with any transaction ever) if an adversary could build a *lying proof,
one that says to the network "this tx does not create or destroy monero,"
but really it DOES, then you have an undetectable inflation bug.
So the criticism of Monero is that there is that extra layer of trust in the proof.
Which is fine if you're not comfortable with that. Everybody has to think about their own threat model.
I mean
Bitcoiners trust different kinds of cryptographic guarantees everyday. Why is cryptographic verification of supply a non-starter? They're like no coiners who dont understand why their private key can't be hacked.
So it's not intellectually consistent, but people can do whatever they want 😂
#bitcoin #monero
We're seeing lots of encrypted events, but fewer plaintext.
Fork is a done deal. The rewards only exist on the other chain. As far as Bitcoin is concerned this is about as relevant as a litecoin block being found.
So now miners who mine 110 get rewards that only exist to other people who like 110. Except not because of the lock on the coinbase which means they need 96 more blocks to be able to spend the first block of the forks rewards. At 1 block a day, patience is demanded for sure.
A tail emission is a mechanism in which new block rewards are made as a mechanism to keep coins at a steady supply to account for lost coins, and it’s also to incentivize miners.

People are still pointing nearly 7 EH at the bip110 chain. 2 new blocks found today according to Oceans website.
New idea emerged and I registered a .xyz domain
Ignore a 200k fine? I don't think I can.
That's pulled from NostrArchives, I think.
Please tweak the model so the upper human litmus is within a range similar to mine since I’m basically on Nostr all day 🥺🙏.
“Start a nostr publication business, and message me back once it starts making money. Make no mistakes!”
Are powerusers, & meme pages considered Bots?
Thank you, man!
I’m looking forward to where I can have a comfortable life, and not have to worry about covering my basics.
Luckily, I still have my parents that help me out but if I didn’t I would be absolutely screwed.
The Borrower is a Slave To The Lender.
I never want to be a slave again.
Once I get out of this mess, 100% debit/paying off borrowing, saving, & investing.
Never Never Never Borrowing Again, not to start a company, not to buy a car, or home.
I plan on saving, and investing.
Even if my fiat score hits the bed.
Buy, Borrow, Die maybe but I’ll have it set up where the net is going into growing more assets over time.
I’ve done this multiple times before but last time was only about $10,000 to $20,000 in debt, & I’ve had about $500+ in fiat savings before getting rugged by Yotta.
I tackled the debt before the first time but this time I got irresponsible, & got beyond what I could reasonably manage.
I learned the lesson, & I made the changes to become better.
No, I’m not perfect, or rich, or anything.
Yes, I know I’m a little gay boy if all I’ve been able to do is pay down only $5,000, & only save up ~$300+.
But considering most don’t even have anything saved up, & aren’t tackling debt, I feel accomplished, even if by the measure of others it’s small, or whatever.
But I’m measuring to myself, & I am doing better personally.
So sorry if you’re offended that I don’t earn $100,000+/year like you guys do.
A lot of us don’t, I earn about ~$30,000/year currently.

Residue is a don't
That stuff's taboo
It’s been about 8 months into my building some liquid fiat savings, and it’s been a year since I started paying down fiat debts.
I’ve been building some momentum, and made some progress.
It’s a tiny dent in comparison but I personally feel better about it.
I of course am still struggling but I feel less anxious since I’m noticing real progress again.
I’ve cut back drastically, I have still been investing too.
Once I get a comfortable Fiat cushion, and pay down more debts, I will pivot back into buying more Bitcoin, Monero, Crypto, gold, etc.
It’s hard being spread thin between everything, and not having any liquidity, or savings.
And in before the “Bitcoin is The Savings”, it’s not as liquid as having direct fiat.
In some cases it may take 3 to 5 days to exit, and that’s using the compliant version, and yes I know just use cash, or whatever but I prefer having digital liquidity too, and yes I know “muh government could rug your digital money but still”
Besides the point, I’m just trying to make progress is my point, and I feel like that I am, even if it’s tiny.

Umm I think you're both right?
It's always true of course we can't see amounts and do simple arithmetic to prove supply. So it depends on what level of proof you're comfortable with.
But we absolutely can go back and look at the ledger and prove that the transactions in it are consensus valid. Which involves proving that no additional Monero were created.
I think it's important to remember that a blockchain is a chain of blocks right? And inside those blocks are transactions, so a blockchain is just a record of transactions.
Therefore the overwhelming vector that causes problems for blockchains is malformed transactions. There are other ways of course, mining bugs, etc.
but if a transaction has to prove the sum of its inputs and outputs equal zero in order to be consensus valid, it goes a very long way to mitigating any supply bug.

WEF 2.0 😈
Joke aside, I think helping the individual have more control over their own life, and improve education.
Have more people learn about gardening, affordable housing, more nuclear power plants, financial literacy, improved mental health systems.
Encourage the sanctity of marriage, and reduce hookup culture.
More local ai, privacy, freedom.
I want basically every American to be like a Cypherpunk Amish Nordic Swiss person.
And our poor EMS people, who don't make enough money for what they do: Breathing Difficulties go up, utilities complaints, bogus fire alarms. We even had a tree go through a structure in my area this week.
Summer in the Midwest can go hang.
Gooòd morning nostr 🌞
Give love today 🤞🏼
Day 2 of crazy storms messing things up and making people miserable.
My intense dislike for summer deepens.
Choppier bay today, compared to yesterday.

Bummer. He's not on nostr. Not sure if he automated this account or somebody else.
He’s a dev. Very busy. Used to be funded by Opensats

The meme you're stealing. He claims I stole it from him and owe him payment
I’m just going to have to keep saving, & investing until I have the means to create the world I envision.
Pay in one form or another. Me with zaps, and you with wasted time 🤝
boom and bust - 'twas ever thus
while malinvestment lurks
I think society is going to enter a rediscovery phase, assuming the climate change revelations population decline meteor doesn’t happen.
Those without skills, or awareness will be corralled into a state system of control, and those of us with more awareness will embrace a Techno-Amish way of living.
The vast majority of humanity ~80% might be a feudalist underclass sustaining off of generic nutrition rations while the top 20% would have opted out for the better way.
Zapped you on his behalf.
