- If you really believe that 1BTC will be worth $1M in 90 days then what you urgently need to buy isn't bitcoins but a AK-47 and ammo.
- No energy is spent for a single Bitcoin transaction. The utility of Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work is to secure an entire economic history. PoW is global and cumulative. PoW acts as a homogeneous field creating a potential well securing the Bitcoin economy.
- TIL Grayscale has been selling ~1000BTC/month for the last 18 months.
- I just published "Gravity", first part of a series of 4 articles about Bitcoin's PoW, its properties and its efficiency.
- Confession: I don't know if Ethereum is a scam or what its supply is but I know one thing,; "It doesn't matter" isn't the answer that I'm expecting from people proposing to build the future of finance.
- "PoS, not PoW" is the new "Blockchain, not Bitcoin"
- It's official. In France, mixers and privacy coins are now considered by default as an indicator of suspicious activity. The law has been adopted. 😒
- A thread about this statement made in Samourai's indictment, from the perspective of a person who has extensively studied the design of zerolink implementations and who has also analyzed the on-chain activity of some crypto money launderers.
- Replying to @ketominer and @krakenfxSend them a GDPR request. They'll have to provide all information related to your account (including the "scoring" resulting from their chain analysis tool). That may give you a hint about why the account was closed.
