BREAKING: Trump's New Fed Chair Calls Bitcoin 'The New Gold' | BitcoinCenter EP39 xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1kvJpMblm…
BitcoinCenter retweeted
BIP-110 is dead. The capture Hodlonaut warned about is not. Everything the Space Cat laid out in #286 reads differently now that the vote went the other way. If you skipped it in August, this is the one to go back to. 👇
Bitcoin didn't win.
Bitcoin can change. Bitcoin is changing. Bitcoin has changed. We fell in love with a thing that was set in stone, and then we bypassed the one layer that actually holds it in place: the humans. While we posted "number go up," the reference implementation was being quietly captured. If no one fights for Bitcoin, Bitcoin will very soon be dead.
Who is actually running Bitcoin Core, and who is allowed to audit them?
@hodlonaut, the Space Cat, the citizen journalist who told the simple truth about Craig Wright and then stood in the fire for five years over it, came on to lay out the fight consuming Bitcoin right now, in plain English: how he found Bitcoin and shepherded the Lightning Torch, what the five-year Craig Wright war taught him about choosing principles over outcome, his Capture series and how informal power over Bitcoin Core was assembled and defended, the DEI and "extractive" playbook used to shut down anyone who asked questions, why every line of code must serve monetary sovereignty, the real cost of running a node at 10x and 100x, and why he went from BIP-110 skeptic to all-in.
Send this to anyone who thinks Bitcoin already won.

Every health official is free to recommend and attempt to persuade people on the merits – not coerce and certainly not infringe on anyone’s civil or individual rights.

Aaron Siri on why "informed consent" is broken:
"Where I really take issue is the consent part. It's the parent who read all the primary sources, who's really informed about these products — and then doesn't want to consent. They've been informed. They are choosing not to consent.
And then they're told: okay, no problem — but now your kid can't go to school, you can't have a job, you can't be part of public civil society. Well, then the consent isn't worthwhile. That is destructive to consent.
Most people don't wake up and decide to take a socially ostracizing position that gets their kids kicked out of school. And once they've seen the clinical trial data with their own eyes — you can't unlearn that."

Kudos to @CedYoungelman who did a huge public service hosting attorney @AaronSiriSG who laid out the facts with prosecutorial precision vs. the USG & Big Pharma. The 2nd worst thing the USG has done in the last 40yrs is the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Strip vaccine makers of ordinary & punitive liability for design defects & you strip out the only force that ever kept product safety honest. The worst thing? Leaving it on the books. For every year the Act survives, the betrayal isn't a mistake anymore. It's policy. AS "When you look around the product landscape, there is no other product in the US, where you cannot sue for design defect claim." H/T @DavidBCollum youtu.be/gPdCC7YK1zI?si=6uSP…

Thank you for sharing @DavidBCollum. The part that stops people cold: the first shot a newborn gets was licensed on a trial of 147 kids, 5 days, no control group — and it's all on the FDA's site. Go check it yourself.
I am confident that if you read Aaron Siri's book, Vaccine Amen, you will not get another vaccine. Here is Cedric interviewing Aaron...
