We also dive into the quantum computing threat—timelines, soft-fork options, migration game theory, and why coordination (not cryp...

Mid and upper models of Flair Espresso maker are plastic free in the brewing areas and around $400-500. Tradeoff is it’s manual but that is just more proof of work. Pair with a metal hot water kettle and you’re all set.

Core/Knots is about Core removing User options. IMO, Free and open-source software is about empowering Users. Knots enables more options to the User. The current B-Core team needs to reflect on the broader intentions of the Users, and of the bitcoin network itself.

Chris, you are either intentionally mid-representing this soft fork, or you aren’t remembering what orphan blocks are. https://www.lightspark.com/glossary/orphan-block Reorganizing a block happens often- that’s why we have the little 6-block circle indicator in Sparrow for example. You should be waiting about 6 confirmations to consider a transaction fully settled. That isn’t “F***ing with property” that’s how Bitcoin works. Btw, guess what Foundry, Blackrock, Coinbase, etc, think about what CoreV30 does- by default making bitcoin an anonymous permanent data storage service -to their property? Not to mention myself and any other decent Bitcoin node runner. The decision here isn’t about voting thankfully. You are free to reject the soft fork, pin and persist on the CSAM chain and call it “the real Bitcoin” if you like, just like the B-cashers do with their hard fork.

    As bitcoin ages, this is the type of topic mainstream media is going to pick up on and create fake wars and fud while misinformaing everyone with their 30-second sound bites. The new cycle of "Bitcoin is Dead"

    Dump core, run knots. No justification for removing op_return limit - assuming this is his best, unchallenged reasoning. Weak. It's clear core has gone rogue. Good thing about this debate is we know who the bad actors are.
