Complete untraceability is great if you want to invest 10x the effort, but I&#39;d only do this for a small amount of BTC you&#39;re making a specifically dangerous payment with. (Single whirlpool utxo mixed a dozen times, sent to a single use lightning wallet via tor etc)<br/><br/>This means for most people its okay to just make lightning payments with a wallet like Phoenix, and even better if you fund it from a whirlpool mix. A really really motivated spook could possibly find some metadata here to infer some things, but difficult to do anything across a large number of users. 2023-04-13T07:37:59Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqew2rju3q9hwc7aelpyd7phxr2w5dg3hyv3nq9c8nehhhsdyu9lqzyrkypcdgkgy4ulgavry30f0zktz2k75dshq0t3z38e7wms69c3x32t9e8md People always talk about the number of bitcoin buyers and how this is the central driver of demand. But they usually miss the secord order: it&#39;s the amount of BTC these buyers think they need.<br/><br/>When I first bought in 2014 I had the equivalent of my monthly salary, and it felt like A LOT. Today, the few friends of mine that have been interested enough to get some have around that level or much less. That&#39;s fine, great even! It&#39;s a start! But they still haven&#39;t made the leap to recognizing that Bitcoin is THE asset, it&#39;s THE savings device.<br/><br/>As a portion of my income, my BTC holdings is orders of magnitude higher now than when I got started. My current demand is equivalent to a few dozen of me in 2014.<br/><br/>THAT is where demand comes from. The slow, but sure, irreversible realization that Bitcoin is the hardest money ever, and why that matters. Massive increase in demand, but also of the type that doesn&#39;t panic sell. 2023-04-11T20:11:02Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsg4z8yg5pd2kc9kx7qawk9xz95yp6q60lfaa8rsp4cu63p2er0shgzyrkypcdgkgy4ulgavry30f0zktz2k75dshq0t3z38e7wms69c3x32aegmx4 The size of the government is much larger than official state expenditures.<br/><br/>There are obvious cases such as the BBC - its license payer funded, but they are forced to pay by the government.<br/><br/>Then there compliance departments and lawyers who exist simply to help businesses adhere to government laws.<br/><br/>Finally, there are all the businesses that exist in service of government created problems.

You can choose to put your USD/GBP/ZAR into an account that&#39;s used for loan creation, but should be clearly demarcated and probably have a call period. Then its just quite obviously an investment.<br/><br/>This can work for BTC too as long as those lending their BTC know they are, and get compensated for the risk. When this disclosure doesn&#39;t happen (e.g. FTX) then it&#39;s fraud.

Have seen some others make this point too (e.g. Taleb, Hunt).<br/><br/>Are bitcoiners ideological about Bitcoin? And if so, is that a problem or weakness in our arguments?<br/><br/>Was Galileo ideological in claiming the earth revolved around the sun? That&#39;s the reality he saw, but it must have seemed ideological to those who already accepted the view of the Catholic church. He was so &#34;ideological&#34; that he ended up spending the rest of his life under house arrest for this &#34;belief&#34;, which he defended.<br/><br/>Maybe we come across as ideogical because we make both normative and positive claims about Bitcoin&#39;s current and future state, and others only see the normative claims. Yes, we think Bitcoin _should_ be the world&#39;s money, but we make that claim based on the observations of what Bitcoin _is_. But also money is a special case because it relies on collective delusion or belief too, so therefore any claims about it being ideological are begging the question (a fallacy even the smartest people are susceptible to).<br/><br/>Would love it if folks like #[4] or #[5] had thoughts to add? 2023-03-17T09:25:34Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqspfwq5fukw95944mcvuk0y4gl90tddfq7g0a649ngypgv7geawl4czyrkypcdgkgy4ulgavry30f0zktz2k75dshq0t3z38e7wms69c3x32akq5lw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0qw0252c96acvzen789mmyn92vsd09cxkna6tz83tr48c2vdvpwgaq7dwk'>nevent1q…7dwk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Honestly think I get more dopamine seeing this go down than I do seeing btc go up 😅 2023-03-17T08:54:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrvkajhv4zdruxzgt2gwgmfcmzjxuawjwuzns277p8e47xqe8cckszyrkypcdgkgy4ulgavry30f0zktz2k75dshq0t3z38e7wms69c3x323mm4dm What if humans evolved genetic mesa-optimising traits (e.g. love / friendship / mercy) at the same pace as they evolved intelligence, but now AI intelligence growth is far outstripping any stabilising characteristics?
