Good call on the Dalio privacy coin take- I think you might be on to something

Thanks for the signal Chris, as always. Can you help us understand the game theory for BIP110 in relation to mining. If they have very low hashrate (<10%) can this still cause a disruption and potential chain split? My initial thoughts were that they won’t get a significant amount of hash so it will just die on the vine. But the proponents of 110 are talking like they can still force a counter fork if they have mino…

You deserve more V for your V, but I'm facing some personal liquidity challenges at the moment. Where I work, they stopped hiring SW graduates a few years ago. I don't think they planned to switch to AI, it was just a desperate measure. Now they're pivoting hard to agentic coding.

Thanks for the value

Thank you again for another breakdown of how ludicrous BIP-110 is. I used to be in the Knots camp, but once they moved from a node implementation to attempting to change consensus, they lost me completely. Plus the lynch mob tactics, rushed nature of the bip, and how it could stain the Bitcoin brand and even damage parts of the network, I’ll pass from joining this cult. Great work as always Chris!

I just used opencode with their free model to unpin then remove a bunch of pinned but unsupported flatpaks. At work I've been using GitHub copilot for a year or so. So far it is just making me slightly more productive. However more important is I will more often try things I'm less familiar with because the cost of trying them is a couple minutes writing a prompt. For example I added dark mode to an internal JavaScr…

Love your reports, thanks for the work you do to keep me informed. And, I disagree with your take in UBI. Bitcoin and UBI will work very well together. Andrew Yang doesn’t want to tax the robots to pay people to stay home. The stay home narrative is 100% incorrect about UBI and you’re being spun by the same corporate, billionaire systems that are fighting Bitcoin. We have a common enemy. Think of UBI as a floor, not…

TWiB is back! While I was away there was some fresh FUD, so between that, new inflation data, and Bitcoin observations from my trips it’s a packed episode. Enjoy 🍻
