Hilarious episode! I appreciate how @npub1qny3tkh0a… tried to keep his serious face when Rococop voice pulled his absurd questions out of nowhere. I would definitely tune in again if I had absolutely nothing to do with my time.

THE BLOCK TEMPLATE FOR MINING IS NOT AS IMPORTANT AS THE COINBASE TRANSACTION. THE COINBASE PAYOUT DETERMINES WHO GETS PAID. THE TEMPLATE DETERMINES HOW MUCH. WE NEED MORE POOLS. #eHash

Die meisten von uns vermeintlich erleuchteten, waren wesentlich länger Pre Coiner, als wir Bitcoiner sind. Es steht uns nicht gut, sich aufs Hohe Roß zu setzen und andere für ihre „Blindheit“ zu richten. Anstatt Unverständnis, sollte man lieber die Hand reichen.

Asic-rs (originally pyasic) is a standardized way to talk to various control boards. Rust is preferred to python once you move to scale or serious production. Additionally, rust has a robust ecosytem of tooling for bitcoin that can leverage asic-rs.

This is so fucking unbelievable. Which technology / social movement / religion / [put name here] could have led to a discussion like that instead of Bitcoin? Talking about Bitcoin as a payment technology or a store of value does not even come close to its true value. Bitcoin enables a new kind of Renaissance and we are witnessing it live ❤️
