As I said, most of what they&#39;ll turn up is inconsequential.<br/><br/>It is happening in parallel with an obvious state-level attack against sovereign hodlers (Coldcard users, Lightning users, BTCPay Server users) seeking to 6102 as many bitcoins as possible.<br/><br/>The former is a coordinated tactic to obfuscate the latter. 2026-08-07T21:09:09Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvc3ktcmtfumscq9x73dmndnnqdvh5yx9pgt8a2zrqh26uqvylztgzyp60l3gucvq4pnmekm9nzmf6zh8nx24jngu0aj0tfp9tz4gad5v9v7uxsy3 Current perspective -<br/><br/>They tried to crudely wrestle control of Bitcoin away from the sovereigns with the &#34;hard forks&#34; in 2017. <br/><br/>They realized that it just doesn&#39;t work. So instead this time around there&#39;s a Fabian style infestation of the space and it has become captured rather than overtly conquered.<br/><br/>It&#39;s very hard to defend against this because the attacks are all small enough to make any concrete pushback appear to be an overreaction.<br/><br/>Anyone who can extrapolate forward can see that anything that undermines Bitcoin&#39;s identity as a monetary protocol, if not rejected decisively, results in eventual death.<br/><br/>It&#39;s not here to compliment the dollar, it&#39;s here to replace and destroy it. Cope to the tune of &#34;trojan horses&#34; is now and always was self deception.<br/><br/>Protocol capture is real and the norm for freedom tech that reaches levels Bitcoin has.<br/><br/>People continue to underestimate the threat Bitcoin poses to the system and refuse to understand the lengths to which that system will go in neutering it.<br/><br/>I&#39;ll have more to say over the coming days as we establish whether the industry still respects the decentralization necessary to maintain our disruptive potential or if it chooses to close ranks and become a servant of the fiat apparatus currently coopting the network. 2026-08-06T14:05:06Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsyl8kmgqh97vgsveqg49png4kynmwpu3nf38fljkz4nh7073lzjjszyp60l3gucvq4pnmekm9nzmf6zh8nx24jngu0aj0tfp9tz4gad5v9v7xjz2g In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqqyhkr4e4r430fj8d0sh2zst54anlqcvx0ejawwnvgnmzehjveqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtce6e29n'>nevent1q…e29n</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Interesting in that way and many others.<br/><br/>But how could you ever send &#34;back&#34;?

I&#39;m happy going barebones with it.<br/><br/>BitWig comes highly recommended but it&#39;s not free and that undermines the overall effort of ditching MacOS in the first place.<br/><br/>I&#39;ll probably try Ardour again or Audacity.<br/><br/>Something to make simple video edits too would be great.
