Samson Mow - KNOTS vs CORE

So now we can’t Boost comments? Man I wish I never updated to latest app version :( I really had fun on Fountain and it seems like it was finally working well after early years being buggy but now I can’t boost comments? Sucks. NOSTR Sucks

I hate this NOSTR comment format. Like hate it :(

Anyone else hate that fountain went full NOSTR? now I’m not following half my old peeps. Plus new version keeps glitching like it’s 2 years ago. Just me?

One more BOOOOST!

Even more Boost! #BonusBoost

Left a longer than usual note with last boost so here’s more boost!!!

BOOST! BOOST! BOOST! Oh btw I deleted my X account after getting dragged into the politics and nonsense talk regularly. Realized I still wanted to connect with my NA Fam and such so if u see a new Gene Everett account it’s me 👍 (@GeneEverett333) Even me with my NA trained brain, I started arguing and falling for the silly stuff and needed a break. Doctor prescribed me some Curry & Keeper with a side of NA! Appreciate ya’ll very much! Cheers!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! 🎆 enjoyed hearing about the holiday overseas. It’s always a party when someone stabs themselvss 🤣. Cheers my friends! 🥂

Bitcoin isn’t helped by having ability to embed videos & memes in it. A rare time Core makes way more sense

A lot of people weighing in on the core vs knots debate are totally missing the point when it comes to the impact of the potential inclusion of CSAM to the Bitcoin blockchain. It’s not the potential inclusion of this data and imagery to the blockchain that is the threat. It’s what Bitcoin’s enemies DO with the knowledge of the potential inclusion of such material to the blockchain that is the threat. You know, the same people that have claimed that Bitcoin will boil the oceans and that it uses the same amount of electricity as a small country with every transaction? Absolute wizards. Unnecessarily altering the most important innovation in Human history since the harnessing of electricity. #runknots

Saylor was right!!!! 😱 Thank you sir 🫡

Of course USA has defaulted on its debt. Change over to fiat was total default

I wish Thomas 777 had this guys voice and tone. No rahsom angry rants and weird explanations. Have this guest on more! I think he’s wrong about dollars not being recalled as the next 50 years won’t be like last 200 but he explains well all around and he should be a regular! Mega Boost!!!

Re: sponsorships I personally wouldn't mind, especially if it helps the show. I suggest soliciting the companies you already mention and branching out from there. The bull market has made the podcast space pretty noisy, so I've cut down my podcast subscriptions to just 3 for the time being: This Week in Bitcoin, Bitcoin And, and Preston's Bitcoin Fundamentals. Less is more for me now. I don't usually boost, so here's a hello from all the streamers. We appreciate your work, Chris (albeit silently). PS, the boost amount is the default port for Neo4j Browser.

No on ads!

Thanks for continuing to bring us consistent, balanced coverage on Bitcoin news. Still my fave show. My AI friend agrees that not only is your show “X” but it is “Y” lol. Even if the Core code change ends up being a bit of a nothing burger, I think a lot of users have been swayed to run Knots by the elitist heavy handedness the Core devs came across with. Shutting down discourse etc. That and Peter Todd’s supersized ego and smug face. Anyway here’s some sats. Thank you for the great content.

Power to the node runners. Lets go Bitcoin Knots.

Yields are down in USA. You just say random stuff that’s not true. Look at the 2025 chart.

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.

Another BOOST! this episode was great!

Bonus Boost!

Great episode Tom!

Awesome show keep it up sir

Great track!

Hey Chris, digging the show. Got a bug in my ear about your podcast from @Jay ‘s post on Nostr, and I like the way you present the latest news on what factors are influencing Bitcoin’s behaviour and adoption. Keep up the great work 🤙🏽

High signal week in week out. Keep up the good work. The emotion level is just right for me. If I were to gauge the success of all these crazy moves in the economy by the Trump administration, I would look at the number of reputable, genuinely independent news and entertainment media are in business by the end of the term. How many more independent banks. How many more independent small businesses. How much higher birth rates are. How many more people are debt free. All of these are, I think, signs of a healthy society. And if that's not the goal then I don't know what is.

BOOST! #BuyTheDip

Walking it back? How so?

Lets keep running with scissors into 2025. Yes there are some porsitive changes in the world but we are not out of the woods yet. Tyfyc

BOOST!

Dude please stop torturing us with the same Ad every 8 minutes

Coffe & a Mic guy? He sounds a lot more chill as a guest

Anyone here that’s new. I will be honest I’ve disagreed with Moe a quite a few things. But I sure appreciate the time and work. Personally my favorite trilogy is episode 44-45-46 go back and listen if your new here and caught on post episode 50. Starting at episode 1 makes most sense but if ur a casual listener I’m telling u 44-46 is a trilogy that should be put on CD and mailed to e dynamical citizens. Good Job Moe! You too Adam!

The End Is Here………..…… Or Is It…..

Happy New year

Maria was never a never trumper. The money honey has been Trump supporter since 2026. Like hardcore

The Powell spin has got ridiculous to parody label. One of my favorite podcasts but man this argument about Powell has got old and lame.

Does this shit work?

Lets get retaurid!

Oh yeah!!!

Enter me in the calendar drawing please

🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

Mini BOOST!

LIGHTENING BOOST!

You have turned into a total propaganda podcast. Unfollowed

What Bitcoin did is no more?

So tired of these podcasts who spend whole show just making baseless accusations because somebody has a big audience. Either provide evidence or do something useful. Crapping on people who are preaching liberty and freedom just cause u think it’s odd they have a platform is tired she lame……

Anyone we think has a platform is a PcyOp podcast….. lame AF

Now do BHATTACHARYA. U won’t cause u ignore anything that doesn’t back up ur narrative

You*****

Yet I purposely don’t play any clips of the multiple individuals who were against it. So tired of these podcasts selectively editing to ignore things that ruin the narrative

BOOSR!!!!!

Phew finally caught up again. Long boost so you may need to find it on Nostr. I'll be frank you you, yours is the only Bitcoin podcast I listen to anymore. And it is because I think you are principled and honorable and your dedication to this show is admirable. Thank you, truly, for your time and effort. As for Mike selling Bitcoin to inoculate the market, I think it's reasonable. At their size and complexity, having the option to sell Bitcoin when they need to without causing the market to meltdown is probably valuable to them. So selling a pittance now gets the shock out of the way, and we can expect more in the future. Being humble before God is a subtle topic. There's no real way to express it in words. Being humble towards others is a start. Being humble towards yourself is, in my opinion, even better.

Thank you sir. I think the value and importance of trust in human society is sorely undervalued by the phrase, "Don't trust. Verify."

EVERYONE CONGRATULATE @npub1vwymuey3u… FOR 1000 EPISODES OF BITCOIN AND . . . #PROOFOFWORK

Happy 200th Show! BOOOOST! From Gene in Armonk!

What is wealth? Something to think long and hard about. Thank you.
