New BIP:
incentivize financial transactions and dis-incentivize non-financial transactions.
1. Find a heuristic where the basic "bitcoin transaction" is identifiable. This is defined as "bitcoin transferred peer to peer with no alterior motives.
2. Charge the minimum for these transactions.
3. Charge a premium for any non-transaction related data. (this definition is where my "im not a LEET bitcoin programmer" will show) But I think "op return" and "<whatever causes inscriptions>" should pay a premium. Lets set this premium at 10x. And this could be adjusted similar to difficulty, but in inverse proportions. So if fees are low, then the premium is 100x. If fees are high, then 10x, since they are probably priced out anyway.
This, to me, is a win-win. There is no "filtering" or "censorship" to be accused. This aligns incentives to eventually price out "non-peer to peer bitcoin transactions" when fees are not stupid low. But while we wait for fees, the non-financials are dis-incentivized as they should be. This "calls the bluff" on the core devs who say they are on the same side and want bitcoin to thrive in the "peer to peer bitcoin transactions."
I don't think this is the reality, so call their bluff. See who's swimming naked.

Wherein Montel justifies killing someone who disrespects your relationship.
I don’t think they hear what they’re saying. They must think we’re real dumb.

This will be a good test to see if filters work!
@nprofile…l46s ‘s obtuse position on filters puts his great work on cashu and bitchat in the sus bucket for me.
He’s more likely to be a fed.
@nprofile…p0na has lost all respect from me.
Never trust a lib, they always show their true colors.
I will continue to follow and pursue cashu, but that dude can be ignored.
That seems much more rational than a TDS take on the situation. And I admit to not viewing evidence in this specific case.
While most TDS stricken liberals snap to “Trump did a thing, here’s why it’s wrong “, after his first term I’m much more inclined to let him cook.
If the supreme court eventually says it was illegal then I’ll be inclined to agree with you.
If you want me to stop listening to you, say “anti-Semite”, “hamas”, “oct 7”, etc
Instant tune out.
Nobody will meet all 10, so you will just not vote. Its the libertarian "wasted vote" dilemma.
I agree with your list and Trump is closer on all of these than any politician in my lifetime.
Don't vote if you don't want, make them "earn" your vote, but its a fools errand.
I hope Elon is convinced to put together a Convention of States. Short of that or a fiat apocalypse, nothing stops this train.
In a world with no property tax, maybe.
Failing that, you will rent for the rest of your life from the tax authority who rules over your "property", so the much better path is to do what wealthy people do and buy hard assets with borrowed fiat.
I used to view debt as bad and longed to be free from its grips. When I changed my perspective to where the bank is the sucker for loaning me this fiat, its a game changer.
Think about it this way: the fed owns 40% of mortgages, wrapped in mortgage backed securities. Which 40% do they own? The ones the banks don't want. The "hot potatoes" that were loaned during ZIRP. The banks collected an origination fee to provide a mortgage for sub 3%, then immediately sold to Fannie/Freddy because the bank would be on the hook for a "bad mortgage". So the lender of last resort now owns those, which means the owners of those mortgages are on the good side of the deal!
The "equity" in your house is not an asset. Its an interest free loan to the bank.
Take all the cheap fiat loans you can and extend them as far as they'll give you. Then buy bitcoin. Do this before the banks figure out bitcoin, because then they'll be doing this in reverse when fiat dies and bitcoin will be too expensive.
Sounds like that should be the plan for the sovereign states then. Decentralize the fiat away.
There’s not $108 trillion USD floating around rn.
There’s $28 trillion actual circulating paying for $108 in USD denominated debt.
So the number needed to service the *entire US M2* economy is 1/4 of the $100 trillion.
Never gonna work.
Sounds like a honeypot.
Nice try fed.
It’s a honeypot, but if the CEO lets me in on the pyramid scheme being used against me, then it’s not?
Your thread here is so desperate and pathetic.
This is likely part of the trade deals, so not just US.
I may or may not pay for a VPN with lightning. Nice try fed.
I have heard of people with bitcoin pay for coldcard hardware wallets with lightning.
Unfortunately all my bitcoin is at the bottom of the lake.
I heard about a 2029 plan the liberals have, but I was joking about the contents. I’m sure it’s only funding saving puppies and free healthcare for illegals.
The whole world is out to get you, or will be sometime in the next 35 years.
Better warn everyone you see about the future evil that Trump has planned. It’s the only way we’ll all see it, is if you continue screeching.
Although you do have a point, the AOC admin could turn the apparatus against whites, it’s in their 2029 plan.
But ICE still isn’t the problem. If Trump abolished ICE tomorrow AOC would just turn the FBI against whites.
It’s radical liberalism that you should fear, not ICE.
It sounds like you’re afraid.
ICE is only a benefit for me. I see no problem.
So we’re not spinning but *all the other round bodies out there are moving around us?*
They all:
- have three digits,
- have repeating 2nd and 3rd digit,
- are less than 378
- are greater than 143
- 1st + 2nd = 3rd
- add sum of digits of 1st and 2nd and its equal to sum of digits of third
ZIRP didn’t start it, but it obv accelerated it.
Minnesota vacations gonna be lit
I think most party reps will run republican and caucus “American” like Sanders does with Independent.
If it grows big enough they can change the voting laws to allow/favor 3rd party candidates, but that is dis-incentivized.
1. Printing money is good for bitcoin.
2. It’s better for people with a higher percentage of their net worth in bitcoin.
3. You will not vote your way out of printing money, it’s NGU technology for fiat, then “number” is monetary units
4. SHSS and appreciate all the uniparty is doing for your net worth (in dollar terms).
No need to get salty about it.
Trump and ICE are over the target.
You can tell by the screeching.
Double the deportations daily.
Lately I’ve been pasting these instructions into grok and telling it my architecture and having it write a shell script with my mods.
I used this guide:
https://raspibolt.org/
On a Debian vps and just changed all the architecture from arm to amd.
I have done the core node, LND, and a few other things and that guide is amazing.
The benefit of becoming a 51st state is Canadians would be able to arm themselves against this type of tyranny.
There’s always bluesky. You only wanna hear one side, and have a liberal safe space.
I enjoy discussing things with people whose ideas seem crazy to me.
Blocking is a great demo of the power of this platform.
If you like your echo chamber and want to avoid hearing from people you disagree with, you have that right.
I’m here cuz Twitter decided to filter one half of the debate for me during the Biden years. That doesn’t work here.
Deflection. If you don’t have an argument, deflect.
“Support” or not, it’s the law
“Innocent until proven guilty” in your context is incorrect.
Deportation is civil, and the burden switches to the immigrant to prove their right to remain in the US.
And my * for not paying taxes. Yes immigrants pay eleventy billion in taxes, I’ve heard all the claims. But the tax burden on a number of illegals is *significantly less* than the same number of law-abiding citizens. They don’t pay 100% of what they owe , and a large number don’t pay any.
Two scenarios:
1. You visit France, they ask how long you’ll be there, you say 1 week.
2. In the dark of night you smuggle your family into France.
In either scenario, 2 years later you have a job and don’t pay taxes* and the French ICE finds you.
How do you expect to be treated?
1. Be given cash, pre-paid debit cards, legal assistance, and amnesty?
Or:
2. Be deported.
It’s convenient that you say you “don’t believe in Americas laws” then criticize ICE for violating them. So it seems you want to choose “which laws” are important for LE to follow, and which ones should be ignored.
In this country you don’t get to be the arbiter of your select few laws. You can definitely scream at the internet all you want, but you may be more effective just watching ICE do their job, as congress directed granted them.
Calls out a strawman, then injects several a note later.
Wake me up when ICE does literally any of the things you accuse them of.
Just move away, the law here doesn’t seem to agree with you.
I think he’s a 12 year old.
The “one second after” effect.
A rabbit hole genre of post-apocalyptic fiction was my life a few years back.
I think less than 90% would die off, but the effects are not knowable.
We would be stronger if the result was tribal and local, for generations ahead. Hard times would create strong men.
If we all had to go back to the limits of Dunbars number we might be better off because incentives wouldn’t be perverse anymore.
The welfare state is the degradation of society.
Force starving people to learn how to produce food and/or value to society and more people would do it.
The money is broken, I believe is what you’re saying. So then the issuers of the debt have a cheat code where they can issue the Monopoly money and dictate the terms.
This is all true even if we abolish the IMF. If Bukele wanted a loan in gold, to eliminate the inflation risk, and there was a market for it, I bet he would take it.
But the “cleanest dirty shirt” is loaned at the IMF because of deep political corruption since the first time they couldn’t keep us on the gold standard without changing the exchange rate.
The book “fraudcoin: 1000 years with inflation as a policy” is a great historical playbook for the need for hard money that can’t be debased.
@npub1h8n…rpev
Best thing for me in 2025 is discovering your podcast.
On 887: you state the evil of IMF loans and their stipulations on the borrower.
While I agree the IMF is evil, the transaction is just capitalism.
When you are liquid enough to offer El Salvador $1.5B with your *non-evil* stipulations, Bukele will take your money every day.
It’s not political, it’s pure capitalism.
It’s like screaming at Shark Tank for negotiating 30% of the company you like on the show while you thought they should only get 10%.
I’m sure the company would take your offer, but you’re not in a position to make it, so they took the offer actually on the table.
Tether is worth eleventy billion dollars, so people holding them seem to trust the backing to a certain extent.
Tether is available on several blockchains, adding another entity one must trust to hold the tether stable coin.
Why does tether need a blockchain? Couldn’t they just fork one and run a centralized ledger, since trust is still required?
But better, why don’t they just run a cashu mint, and then issue cashu tokens, allowing privacy, speed, and bearer instrument quality to their product?
I bet you think Trump is a “King.”
EOs should be challenged but not “stoppable” by anyone but the Supreme Court.
I love ACB ripping into Jackson, and that the other justices signed off on it. Lowest common denominator judicial is not the bar for the Supreme Court.
Stipulate that you be allowed to record the entire thing before agreeing to give it.
Then post the audio on nostr.
Remember Barack Obama “didn’t have any scandals.”
When you have control of the narrative you can frame the discourse.
The question is “who did the thing?”
(D) politician -> perfectly normal, why is the “right wing media” *pouncing*?
Trump - *obviously* this is (illegal, highly irregular, scandalous, impeachable…) and all you people that voted for this are obviously regretting your decision.
The liberal disease left unchecked makes a balanced discussion seem “far right.”
Pushback is needed and welcome. I’m surprised how effectively it’s moved off the far left boundary in only a few short months.
