Last Notes
Thank you very much for thinking I'm knowledgeable. I just got into this stuff in March and mainly I am just privileged to have called together a good group of very smart folks who are actually the knowledgeable ones 😁
I honestly don't know much about reticulum aside from the hype that it could let us build an Internet without the Internet. That's a big part of why I try to pivot my guys in that direction. There's been several proof of concept projects showing things like Nostr events could be transmitted over LoRa via Meshtastic or Meshcore, but they're largely abandoned. But I think reticulum has better capacity for that type of bridge.
I think reticulum is where the cutting edge is now. Especially with Meshcore embroiled in drama.
But already it sounds like you know more about reticulum than me! 🤣 The main man at our regional mesh discord has started building out reticulum projects and I look forward to connecting with him and seeing what he's learned. I'll share when I do 🥰
Sweet, can you publish that?
Everyone being like "oh it's a thinker"
I'm going to the movies to enjoy myself not figure out what the hells going on the whole time 😂
It is the very thing that beats your heart
I guess I could offer the Inkan relay.
I originally set it up for testing, but if anyone would like to just use it just in a regular way and is a very well-mannered person, please feel free to request access at https://www.inkan.cc.
One neat feature is that the events you post automatically get OTS timestamps. You can retrieve these timestamps and keep them as proof of when you created your events.
It's free. What I get in return is a chance to practice running a relay, and to practice content moderation on you.

1/ The liquidity mirage.
24h volume — это хлеб для маркетологов. Миллиарды на экране, а стакан — пустой. Ты видишь цифры, но не видишь, как цена ускользает при первом же крупном ордере.
2/ Глубина стакана — это реальность. Сколько нужно вложить, чтобы сдвинуть цену на 1%? Вот это и есть ликвидность. Остальное — шум.
Wash trading inflates volumes by 50-90% on most CEXs (yes, even the "regulated" ones). Spoofing distorts order books, making 0.1% of bids/asks look like real demand. Synthetic volumes? A casino where the house always wins—until the music stops.
Real depth isn’t what’s reported.
Every time I see a new “explosive diarrhea outbreak” headline, I get this radical idea that farmers should probably stop putting human feces on fresh produce. Call me crazy 🤷♂️
**"Биржи криптовалют торгуют воздухом — и зарабатывают на этом миллиарды. Объёмы ликвидности — это наркотик для трейдеров. Чем больше цифры, тем сильнее иллюзия надёжности.

The liquidity mirage isn’t just a flaw—it’s the entire game. Exchanges, market makers, and even your favorite "blue-chip" tokens thrive on the illusion of depth. They dangle 24-hour volume numbers like carrot sticks in front of a starving rabbit, knowing you’ll chase the metric instead of the mechanism.
The liquidity mirage isn’t just inflated—it’s engineered. Wash trading floods books with fake demand, spoofing layers orders that vanish at the first real trade, and synthetic volume from bot loops creates the illusion of depth. But when you zoom in, the real order book is a ghost town: 90%+ of "liquidity" evaporates under pressure.
CEXs report $50B in daily volume—90% of it is fake, and the market is too distracted to care."
Here’s the truth: liquidity is a mirage. Exchanges inflate numbers to attract traders, but the real volu
🟠 „Bitcoin ist Anarchokapitalismus. Jeder Bitcoiner zerstört den Staat, sogar der Etatist." Klingt stark. Trägt aber nicht. 🤔
Ein Ding hat keine Gesinnung. Ein Anarchokapitalist ist ein Mensch, der handelt, kein Guthaben. Und von allein zerbricht kein Apparat. 🔑
Dem Staat nimmt man erst etwas weg, wenn man Bitcoin benutzt: damit zahlen, damit handeln, ohne vorher zu fragen. Das hat einen Preis. Nur zu halten ist bequem und ändert nichts. ⚡

Hon why you coming in here hating, be nice 😂
Happy to have you back on stage
If you read about some of the stars we know of, many are so bizarre and wild that it’s hard to imagine them. Then you look at our own solar system and realize you barely know anything about it. Diamond rain on Neptune? Huh?
The bizarreness of some of these things seems to indicate at least to me that the universe might be procedural.
💯 Seriously man, I'm so tired of this totalitarian shit

Philosophy is cool and all, but if the hashrate falls to very low values in the future, we're going to have to be pragmatic about the security budget
I love the idea of Ark as a 'Channel Factory', allowing billions to have fully sovereign Lightning nodes. However, if Ark is *too* efficient in this case, then a typical block might have only one transaction!
(By the way, that's partly why I'm currently against CTV; I want Ark, but I don't want it to be *too* scalable; I want many medium-sized Arks, not one mega-Ark)
On balance, I think it'll all be fine and there won't be a problem with the security budget. But there could be a problem, and that problem could eventually be fatal. So I like to think about it
The article discusses Runes, but I think it dismisses them too quickly. The Lightning network could be extended to fully support Runes (no soft fork required), and it's possible (but admittedly, very unlikely) that one of the Runes becomes very valuable. As many Runes 'currencies' have tail emissions, it's possible that they could provide the right incentives to miners
Anyway, there's always 'demurrage', a soft fork to apply a tax on old UTXOs, which would motivate people to move their coins more often and create. The rule could be that, when spending a UTXO older than X years, at least Y% of the outputs must be anyone-can-spend outputs that are locked to a few years in the future. Such outputs are equivalent to the block subsidy in practice
Sensible or crazy punts? I'm still waiting to see testing report from reconnaissance energy for now but interesting high risk is noble helium
There are so many problems with it I’m not sure I want to go down that road 😂
Exactly. Inception was lame. Tennet even worse 😂
PV and GM plebs! #plebchain #coffeechain
And the sky…is a hazy shade of summer.
It's truly amazing how many people will show up on social media to tell you taking a moment to focus your own mental health and personal growth is a bad idea, not worth it, and they couldn't be bothered.

I wish it got more frequent updates.

🗞️ **BREAKING**
Why Luxury Travelers Are Now Booking Their £50,000 Villas Two Weeks Out
You believe luxury travel requires months of planning. That the best villas are booked a year in advance. That spontaneity is for budget travelers, not the ultra-wealthy. Well... You are wrong. New data from Oliver's Travels reveals that bookings exceeding £25,000 jumped 33% year-on-year between April and June 2026. And here's the kicker: reservations made within 60 days of departure surged 45%.
But here's what the data doesn't tell you. And it's about to completely redefine how the 1% travel this summer...
