You know what's weird?

Bitcointalk is blocked in China, but bitcoin.org isn't.

Kinda weird.

I checked github.com, also blocked, so anything related to Bitcoin development it seems.

EU thinking of banning PoW

The actual wording proposes a ban on POW, not a ban on fossil fuel energy use by POW cryptos.

Banning fossil fuel use by POW mining would make more sense than banning POW mining.
Has anyone pointed that out to them?

In fact, allowing POW use of green, sustainable energy would increase demand for green, sustainable energy and provide great benefits to the environment by driving green energy use. Subsidize POW green energy use, pass laws that encourage it.  If you ban POW, you're shooting yourself in the foot.

So go ahead, Europe, ban fossil fuel POW.  And encourage POW green energy use.

Someone needs to wake these people up.  How could they be so oblivious?

But why bitcoincore.org is accessible? May be they don’t know about it yet? Or forgot to block it?

“https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/
This URL appears to be accessible from mainland China.”

Evolution can't go wrong.

But, evolution has a goal: survival of the fittest.

We think we can influence evolution. Condoms, contraceptives and vaccines are some of our supposed influences. But, they are not really influences, because this is all part of evolution. We are all in the same system. Being smart and capable enough to invent the condom and develop contraceptives and vaccines is part of our own evolution. Evolution has brought us this far, and has favored these choices.

The fittest shall survive, while the weakest shall perish. Deal with it.

human evolution has brought us to the point where we change the environment to suite us rather than us having to adapt and evolve to the environment. and we are currently the apex predator. so human evolution has more or less ceased as we know it as there is no real need right now.

well at least until we all evolve gills for breathing when the planets under water or whatever the latest doomsday climate thing is.

Exactly. The beauty of it is that what you're describing has happened as a result of evolution. We think we can affect evolution, but it's evolution that has brought us here, and will take us further. "Survival of the fittest" is essentially "survival of the capable, the smart, and those who can get it". Those who choose to wear tin-foil hats will be pushed aside and die off.

One concern, though: Survival of the dumbest as an overwhelming majority (Idiocracy).

EDIT: We might as well live in a "bubble of the smart" because we socialize with smart prople, mainly. The global masses are easily controlled by FUD and also hate. They would be immune to this common form of manipulation if we, as society would have evolved in favour of smartness. Also, look at religions. Not a sign of smartness that over 90% of the population believes in the big space worm or whatever magical creator/controller being

Okay, just a speculation in a speculation topic.

Michael Saylor is the one who is causing all the bitcoin manipulation's like Wyckoff exeuction.

Do you agree?

I don't like Saylor too much.. He's gambling a lot and if it doesn't go exactly as he planned it could backfire big time on bitcoin as a whole

So if any of your friends, family members, or colleagues favor X/Y/Z shitcoin du jour over Bitcoin, just point them to this thread:

https://old.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/og5u6m/its_official_nano_is_no_longer_among_the_top_100/

Let them read how some supposed "superior" tech shitcoin can get some hype, but then incredulously fall down to nothing. Lol.

I'm sure they'll say "But bbut no, my coin won't will do that." Mmhmm. Sure it won't.

What one must do first is get Bitcoin. That in itself is already a calculated and conservative gamble with very good odds, as long as you HODL for 4 years minimum.
Keep stacking sats.

Then, if you want to gamble on some shitcoins, look for really low value ones and put in an amount that you can lose and not worry about, relative to your finances. Maybe something like $100 or whatever is "coffee money" to you.

Then don't ever talk about it. If it loses, you expect that. If it gains, cash out later.

But always remember, shitcoins are shitcoins and their expected value is close to zero or should be. It's a gamble, and the house always wins, and you are never the house.

Someone needs to wake these people up.  How could they be so oblivious?

They are not oblivious at all.  They want control.  Bitcoin threatens that more than anything.  They are using a tried and true narrative to try to kill it.  You can see that it does not make any sense, but you assume they care about that part.  They do not.  Only the useful idiots will care about that.  This is unfortunate because there are a LOT of them.

They are currently using anything they can control half the population with as a wedge and a way to control the masses.  Environment, race, religion, politics, and so on.

The best we can possibly do is to just tell the truth.

Bitcoin energy use will revolutionize renewable energy, and support the creation of new energy sources in places that would not have had them without bitcoin providing a base use with value.  Bitcoin is going to make the earth greener faster than just about any technology we have ever seen before.

And THAT is just a side effect of the real freedom it brings.

This is inevitable... There are two sides lining up.

The old guard who wants to control the people of earth like farm animals and live off the prosperity the masses create.

And the proponents of freedom.

It is beginning to be quite obvious.  What is China doing?  If the EU wants to be more like China, then i am sorry to all of you friends who live there and will have to fight that nonsense.  Same with my country the USA.  We are barrelling towards that same point.

Bitcoin is more important than even we have understood.  It is AMAZING to watch this unfold.

Salute.

I think Saylor would seem a bit over-eager or something, but he's not wrong. He just happens to be more vocal about it than most other people and he has a platform to advance his opinions.

For a billionaire and a businessman, I think he has some fiat/cash as reserves as well, at least more than enough to continue living in the fiat world. His bitcoin holdings are in multi-sig cold storage, as well as the company's (which he probably has most of the keys too.) I'm almost sure he has more than enough fiat to live on for a good number of years and his bitcoin is just extra gravy that he will tap into in the next decade.

Also, he's mentioned he doesn't need to sell any, and will probably have it as forever collateral for a forever loan should he need more cash.

It's going up forever Laura.

There's another line of thought that goes along thinking of seven generations in the future ... He's probably doing that all by himself for his own family.

EU thinking of banning PoW

Only a politician can come up with a idea of banning work, or has to prove some work has been done.
Proof of work is nightmare of a politician.


Can someone point to work been done. Delivering remarks, viewing fireworks display, visiting orchards market, signing some papers
