Nvfowjnfndk fantastic! I’ve been thinking about this recently, how will the bitcoin social layer deal with this? Maybe I’m not in the right circles or reading the right media to understand but as far as I know it’s not looking too great

amazing 🤌 a quote that comes to mind: “We must admit that our opponents in this argument have a marked advantage over us. They need only a few words to set forth a half-truth; whereas, in order to show that it is a half-truth, we have to resort to long and arid dissertations.” —Frédéric Bastiat

Freedom is “Riding a bike in a way gives us back our child’s soul and restores both the ability to play and an awareness of the real. It is thus similar to a sort of refresher (like a booster vacation), but also to continuing education for learning again about freedom and clarity, and as a result, perhaps, about something that resembles happiness. Just the fact that riding a bike renders conceivable the dream of a utopian world in which life’s pleasures would be everyone’s priority, a world that would ensure respect for all, gives us reason to hope. A return to utopia, a return to what is real -- they are the same. Get on your bike to improve everyone’s life! Cycling is humanism.” — Marc Augé, In Praise of the Bicycle trans. T. Fagan (Reaktion Books, 2019)

Really, all of cypherpunk / free software / ... is just trying to preserve boundaries that were unquestioned in the year 1900. * Your device serves you, not some gov or corp overlord * You can repair and modify your device to better serve you * Your private conversations are private * Your private money is private

in all seriousness, why do people hang around here if they think crypto is so “mid”? surely you have better things to do then, since you’re so enlightened. will never understand those who have been around the industry for years but seem miserable, doomposting and whining all day. just move on.

After shadow-banning Palestine support, the free speech app is now going to deprioritize tweets that express negativity for the upcoming administration. What a coward lol

I like the idea of separating social media from ‘debate’ media. Taiwan has taken an interesting approach to this, I can’t find the link but someone compared Twitter/Facebook to a nightclub - why would you want to host a town hall meeting in a night club? You’d be better off making a purpose built area for debate and civic dialogue. Then you can still have the nightclub too. Unless I misinterpreted what you mean by beef, lol https://info.vtaiwan.tw/

L2s are the most sustainable block-selling businesses possible (with current tech standards). The economics are simply too powerful for any L1 to compete with, including Ethereum. An L1 cannot compete with a system that doesn't require issuance and safety quorums to sell blocks to users. I've stated this many times in the past, L2s are the future of blockchains from a first principles perspective. The role of an L1 in this picture is to serve as a source of truth for the co-existence of multitudes of L2s to settle on. This is the only long-term sustainable business model for an L1. Ethereum is the only chain making strides in this direction. In the long run, it will be so obvious that optimizing for L2s is the correct path to depend on. Path dependance matters, and Ethereum is on the right path.

perhaps the most bullish path for the Farcaster ecosystem is to remain disconnected from CT culture, continue to build its own, and finally deliver on crypto’s promise of apps uniquely enabled by crypto rails that people actually want

Memecoins stop becoming memecoins when they’re no longer funny, that is completely up to the audience, whether they are buying selling or just watching Other than being funny, they are useless and often used explicitly to extract value from people who are trying to have a good time Clanker etc have been good in this sense because it has saturated the market so much that people just pump coins based on the name, not based on the long-term investment thesis for FartCoin It is lowkey a good way to attract investment into the crypto space for its novelty but really people should be coming here for the tech - the tech is actually important. In the future we will probably be regretting not transitioning to a crypto economy faster. Mark my words something is gonna happen again where people can’t access their assets or their assets are taken from them - remember SVB, FTX, the gold reserve act (1930 something), the GFC… etc Memecoin devs could be building to protect and bolster the memecoin economy (lol)
