FUN FACT:
The American Revolutionary War did not start over unfair taxes, but rather because the Bank of England seized the money supply of the colonists and banned an American currency.

oh and tons of tear gas and rubber bullets. good memories.
I remember when they did this outside the white house just so Trump could take a stroll down the road and hold up a bible outside a church, good memories indeed
Keep playing the "my side good, your side bad" game to the very end if you want the plan that is unfolding to work. The polarization of every kind of group has been building for decades, and it too is part of the plan to destroy the west.
I agree with cAPSLOCK, there are only two camps in this situation; the corrupted in power and those who aren't, every other "insert what you hate the most moniker here" is a distraction which will weaken us. The "divide and conquer" tactic never seems to get old because people fall for it every time. How about we set our petty differences aside and deal with the corrupted in power first, then we can go back to disagreeing about details? I think the hard part will be waking up those who are sleeping through this, either addicted to substances or smartphones which constantly tracks their location and activity. As others recently pointed out, maybe the whole Ukraine war situation is a devious plan to eventually make us agree to more shit which will limit our freedoms?
Here's my attempt to stay on topic (WO). With the recent news (discussed in latest Joe Rogan episode #1780) about western governments introducing "programmable digital currency" replacing fiat which combines China's "social credit" system with a currency which can prevent you from buying stuff based on government incentives (eg. this is unhealthy for you), and easily blocked when you don't obey authority. This is the most bullish news I've heard for Bitcoin in a long time, if we don't get massive adoption after people wrap their head around this I don't know what will (that distant 100k USD wall feels a lot closer now).

The part that is really starting to worry me is the fact that so many Canadians (and Americans) are supporting this, and even more that the majority of people (everywhere) do not see that this is not about a protest. This is a planned action. A takeover. And it is probably just the opening act of the plan in this hemisphere.
Joe Biden famously said that the second amendment does not protect you if you are fighting the Nuclear weapon wielding US military.

Well, Mr. "President". You will need to send one of your jets to my home then.
Where he is wrong is the fact that some of us have decided that if it comes to it we will call that bet, and we will die fighting. I am one of those. I would rather be remembered by my descendants as someone who fought against the tyranny than as a coward that stood by as evil men tried to take control of the world.
I have begun preparing for this possibility, and will be as ready as possible. My biggest hope is that there will be members of the military and police of western democracies who will also stand up. That includes any of you three letter people reading this. And I have no desire to die or even fight, but I will. I also hope my state considers taking a stand if the time comes.
Currently, personally I have only met a very few of my GenX brethren that see it... the boomers are too busy trying to suck up as much new money as possible, and the Millennials and Zoomers are rolling out the red carpet for the communists. Hopefully it is not just my nihilist generation that is left to save the west... lol.
Chin Up there Cowboy!
There's a LOT more Boomer support than you think and even a decent sampling of underfunded and still a bit Green Millenials... but the Zoomers are likely lost. So yea, X is the front line.
Just know that the "Blue Ridge" is a formidable (and not so thin) Blue Line.
Lots of resources, both Natural & Stockpiled... I think we'll be Aight... but it won't be pretty.
"May you live in interesting times..."
Good to hear about the boomers and millennials... I mean, I know they are out there... I just have not spoken to any. And they don't want to have to rely solely on the Xers.. What a ragtag bunch we are.
I will be up in the Blue Ridge in about a month for a few days. A place very dear to my heart. Home.

Nah dude there is only the Boomer support. Millenials are starting to distance themselves or choose different projects that they see fit for their Portfolios.
I been talking with some friends from America that Blue Ridge is a nice place to search for Gold Nuggets. Most fun one to find fine and nugget gold is Coker Creek . Might be a fun weekend if anyone decides to explore there

Not only is Bitcoin NOT fungible it is ABSOLUTELY NOT fungible from a pure mathematical aspect. EVERY satoshi has a pedigree. You can trace it's origin all the way to the coinbase it was initially realized in. And you can see the trail of addresses it is passed through to wherever it currently rests.
Before you get all mad at me, and Batslap me... I am NOT making a case for a shitcoin. I am just being honest about a feature of bitcoin that we need to come to grips with, and the sooner we do the better.

Careful there, brother - you're deviating from the anointed canon. You might be drawn and quartered over the coals.
Yea, yeah. I know. I do try to respect this thread's bias (or basic thesis), and agree with it for the vast most part. AND I think privacy in bitcoin is VERY IMPORTANT to fight for. So I bring it up trying to speak as little for the one shitcoin I like... but of course that shitcoin comes up because well... it is doing something important. Buy again, I try to avoid stirring that up in here very much, lol... I may have overstepped a little this time. Ah well.
Don't listen to jbreher. He is wrong of course, as usual.
Arguing for more privacy in Bitcoin, which you were doing, is completely fine here. Most would agree. And I don't think anyone would protest if more privacy functionality made its way into Bitcoin.
-but-
Arguing here that some forked shitcoin created by either Roger/Jihan or CSW has actual value, like jbreher likes to do, is completely asinine. The market has spoken on that.
Big difference.

Wow, so if a Canadian peaceful protester decides to just go home, the police will still hunt you down and persecute you without cause or justification? What a dystopian, Orwellian nightmare police state that Canada has now become.
I hate to say it, but Canada is now making Commiefornia look like an ideal place to live.
And I'm sure we won't be seeing any George Floyd style protests for this poor guy or any outrage from the MSM, probably because he miraculously lived.

Given everything going on in my life, managing a LN node is more negative, parasitic energy that has complicated my life beyond any rational measure.
I need to step away, for my own mental health and sanity.

Geez - I've been away for several quarters, and the news don't change. AKA history repeats
Managing high end technology issues -which will be resolved irrevocable in the foreseeable future- in Bob's current stressful personal life - he just needs a break to get things sorted- has nothing to do with supporting your beloved bCash SV, which has plummeted to oblivion, like we all expected it that history will repeat itself endlessly with all shitcoins. Giving that, youre shattered shitcoin dreams meets harsh reality while Lightning is vigorous flourishing in all metrics like never before.
Aww, jbreher is back for 5 minutes and you smack him! C'mon... at least let him get in ONE jab first.
February 21, 2022, 08:54:57 AM
Bob, i hope this isn't the last time you go down this rabbit hole!
It won't be. Plan to revisit in at least another 18 months.
You better!!! You ended up with almost 0.15 of my BTC!
Which really just increased my incoming liquidity a significant portion on both nodes! So it is all good! I am just messing. In fact this was one of the realizations that helped me over the hump i think made you frustrated.
Individual channel balance is ONE thing... but overall NODE balance is another, and arguably more important. Stagnant channels are what I have begun to look at with the horse eye... but on the other hand they are not really HURTING anything. And I have had channels about the size of ours chronically end up on one side of the string, and then BOOM sweep back over on their own accord...
Anyway... I will keep looking at channel management over the next 18 months with a current eye to just letting the node manage itself for a while. And I will let you know what I learn in 18m or whenever!
