If you’re not paying, you’re the product. Ads are a bigger scourge than “basing everything on money” which is just value made fungible.

Imagine if blockstream hadn’t stunted Bitcoin. Nanotransactions could be our reality.

Inferior in the same way your chrome sandbox is inferior to node because it can’t access system files.

Perhaps if there was a way to future-proof (unknown-capability-of-NSA-proof), this could work. I can imagine the theatrics the media would put on if this slowed the police down enough to fail to prevent a murder... I prefer the “no records at all” approach.

This whole website is very interesting, the emphasis on modeling feels like a sort of “declarative style” for abstract architecture. Thanks for sharing.

Congress should pass these kinds of no-database laws more often, and mandatory destruction of records at the end of any mandatory retention periods.

The double standards around the “insurrection” is what finally caused me to abandon hope for the US. Paying my exit taxes this year and then not paying taxes to the US again. Enjoy your packed court and DC senators!

You keep saying that but increasingly more and more people are wisening up to what the central bankers have pulled off and you calling it nonsense won’t change the mathematics

If we look strictly at present mechanisms (ignoring the fact that the definition of the dollar could be changed as it has several times in the past), the dollar is much closer to a Ponzi scheme than Bitcoin is.

This is the explicit endgame of any wealth tax. The ergodic nature of market returns ensure most people experience individual downturns that would wipe them out if they had the “drag” introduced by a wealth tax. The wealth will simply accumulate in the hands of those with the best lawyers and who can stay ahead of regulations and move wealth into protected assets.

> Conspiracy theories usually deny consensus or cannot be proven using the historical or scientific method and are not to be confused with research concerning verified conspiracies such as Germany's pretense for invading Poland in World War II.

So do we even have a term for “true conspiracy theory”? Where is the list of vindicated theories? This Wikipedia page is about FALSE conspiracy theories only...
