Long time, no see! Totally agree with this assessment!

You need satellite or dialup or StarLink or whatever and you have your access,

And no, they did nothing to the global network. China shutting down 50% of miners back in May did nothing. Kazakhstan shutting off 12% sure as heck didn’t do anything.

Considering he used Coinbase, probably.

DNS decentralized? Right up they yank your domain off the net. IP assignment? Lol!

No, it’s the exact opposite. He doesn’t like it because it’s centralized and under control of media and tech elites.

Individual mining might be making a comeback. Compass Mining will host an ASIC for you, at a location of your choosing:

Stratum2 has been released and should make the pools less powerful:

Blockstream is also working on home-friendly mining hardware. You see, it’s not all lost.

What, 4-5 month, cherry-picked? That’s ridiculous. Why did you even bother? Zoom out to anything more than a two years and there’s no correlation. Anyone who’s seen the charts knows that.

A long Twitter thread on Ethereum, mostly centred on the PoS switch:

You could say a lot more.

A clear majority of miners wanted a block size increase in 2017, didn’t happen anyway. Miners just don’t control bitcoin. I can recommend this book that describes those events really well:

Also, you fall for the next “hotness” if you don’t understand bitcoin is decentralized, immutable and censorship resistant. None of the other ones satisfy a single of those characteristics.

You got a chart to go with that assertion? No, I didnâ(TM)t think so.

This perfectly serious message got modded as Troll. This type of censorship is why I stopped patronizing Slashdot years ago.

SEC just approved a bitcoin ETF. Another couple on the way. There are 3 ETFs on TSX (Toronto) since the spring.

Seems the market disagrees with your ridiculous 2015 narrative. Bcash was as high as 0.3 bitcoin in 2017, down to 0.01 now and still sliding. Is it still in the top 20 coins? Probably not for long.

The decentralized consensus wouldn’t work without dispensing the energy and the energy used is mostly either surplus or stranded energy anyway:

I definitely wouldn’t call it stupid.

Bitcoiners on Twitter have laser eyes on their avatars. This stands for laser focus to get to $100K price for bitcoin. Laser eyes come off after $100K price is reached, allegedly.
