This is not the conversation I expected or prepared to have with @Jeff Booth , it’s the one I didn’t know I needed. I planned to explore what it means to live objective truth (Bitcoin first principles) in a world built on illusions (fiat), and helping loved ones understand Bitcoin; Jeff re-oriented the discussion towards what really matters. For those who need to hear this message, including myself, I feel like it holds a significance as powerful and profound as "in a free market prices fall." I hope our shared vulnerability will unlock something within you as well. My content is sponsor-free, no fiat ads (demonetized my YouTube channel) so there are no interruptions during our deep discussion. Consider supporting #v4v Bitcoin education: 📙 Beyond Money:

Made my post into a video, hopefully it's better than a wall of text ^^

Been thinking about the Core/#Knots debate. Going back to first principles and Satoshi's Bitcoin Whitepaper: 📄.pdf - First Principle 1: Bitcoin is a monetary network "peer-to-peer electronic cash" - First Principle 2: "Honest" nodes secure the network "The system is secure as long as honest nodes collectively control more CPU power than any cooperating group of attacker nodes." - First Principle 3: Nodes keep the network decentralized "peer-to-peer" - First Principle 4: Bitcoin must remain decentralized and secure to function as a monetary network Bitcoin, as it was originally intended ("peer-to-peer electronic cash"), dissolves the false illusion of fiat by imposing Universal Laws in service to humanity and thus transforms the world. Bitcoin Core v30 Related to: - First Principle 1: Violates Bitcoin as a monetary network by welcoming larger non-monetary data on to the blockchain - First Principle 2: Compromises Bitcoin's security when nodes become public data storage forced to hold and relay illegal content uploaded to the blockchain by bad actors - First Principle 3: Compromises decentralization when it becomes too expensive, too complex, or illegal for regular individuals to run a node because the blockchain is bloated with non-monetary / illegal data - First Principle 4: Bitcoin is no longer a decentralized or secure monetary network if the previous first principles are violated Bitcoin, as storage for .jpegs and other non-monetary content, becomes a shitcoin. Core is not Bitcoin; we are Bitcoin. There is a thin line between "Bitcoin will be fine" and "we need to act to keep Bitcoin fine." The simple solution is to vote with your node 🧡 On a positive note: - This debate is strengthening Bitcoin as a monetary network; it is getting more plebs involved, running and actively managing their nodes. - It has made the issue of centralized mining more visible to the community and invited more plebs to run solominers. - It has also provided excellent signal! I'm grateful to be connecting with a lot more nodes who deeply care about this protocol for humanity and know what Bitcoin entails far beyond "1s and 0s"⚡️✨ For more info, would recommend these videos:

Running Linux 🙌🏼 :D Been an avid MacOS user for over a decade but could not stick around for 'Apple Intelligence' and relentless surveillance tech. This is such an exciting and welcome change to #FOSS. Just the initial install not having a bunch of bloat apps you can't uninstall is so 😘👌🏼 Feels empowering ⚡️✨

What if one of the biggest hurdles to grasping Bitcoin is the willingness to unlearn systemic programming? A few days ago I mentioned that I'm writing about the mental shifts Bitcoin demands of us. Turns out, there is far more to unpack than I thought; one article turned into three! 😅 Hoping to share next week 🙏🏼 Also, if book quality is something you appreciate you may enjoy this somewhat nerdy video ^^
