its about knowing your audience and meeting them where they are at
this was a mainstream interview, my goal was to convince people who would otherwise buy paper bitcoin stocks to use self custody bitcoin in a relatively easy, secure, and private way

i deleted my x account 2+ years ago and went nostr only
i am back on x now, the bitcoin discussion there has devolved and i think i can add value
despite (some of) our efforts we have failed to move the majority of bitcoin discussion here
i will remain active on nostr, the tech is awesome, it is needed more than ever, i will continue to try my best to increase adoption

there is no deep conspiracy for the motives behind primal
we have been trying to increase nostr user growth like everyone else and have been failing to be quite honest
user growth keeps trending down, retention is horrible, thousands of users have come and left because apps are broken
hopefully the trend reverses because nostr is needed now more than ever

freezing specific bitcoin would be a soft fork definitionally, a restriction of consensus rules
just like bip110

2026-05-28 14:51:47 UTC

- reply

there will be a chain split almost immediately post bip110, since the overwhelming majority of hash will mine transactions that are not valid in your fork
your side will have basically no hash
as i said above, he is trying a centralized mining attack without the hash to back it up
delusional or malicious, doesnt really matter

if you have a significant majority of hash you can try to force through a fork that nobody else wants and the only way to prevent it is for everyone else to fork in response

2026-05-28 14:32:15 UTC

the ironic thing is ocean is basically trying the centralized mining attack they raised money from investors to prevent, but they have no hash so cant pull it off

2026-05-28 04:57:05 UTC

- reply

nope, i have never advocated for a change to bitcoin
by mechanics logic, if me and a few buddies wanted to do a hostile fork then everyone else would have to actively respond with a fork of their own, which is retarded and straight false, bitcoin defaults to no change, which is incredibly important
ironically what ocean is trying to do is basically a centralized mining attack, where a miner with overwhelming hash tries to push through a fork on their own, but they dont have much hash, so it will fail

2026-05-28 03:54:53 UTC

- reply

i understand it just fine
you guys are doing exactly what i expected
first you said there would be no fork
then the fork was proposed
then you said knots runners would not be defaulted into the fork
then it was added to knots by default
then you said you wouldn’t push it through without overwhelming support
now you are doing it with basically zero hash rate
next you will fork, your chain will have basically no hash, you will put something disgusting in the main chain, threaten miners, fail, then pretend you weren’t lying and gaslighting us the whole time

At launch, Zcash diverted 20% of each block reward away from miners for the first four years. Miners received the other 80%. That 20% went to early stakeholders: founders, employees, the Electric Coin Company, the Zcash Foundation, and early investors — including VC-backed investors.
Because Zcash had a Bitcoin-like 21 million supply schedule, that first-four-year allocation amounted to about 2.1 million ZEC, or 10% of the total eventual supply.
Critics called it a mining tax because it was enforced by the protocol: miners had to pay it automatically in every block. Supporters argued it funded development, security, research, and ecosystem growth.
After the first halving in 2020, the original Founders’ Reward ended and was replaced by a new development fund, still taking 20% of block rewards, but no longer paying the original founders/investors in the same way.
