It would be nice if we didn’t need to think about Monero, but it’s a separate blockchain that can do very important things that Bitcoin cannot do. Not shitcoinery, but actual use cases. This is why both Michael Saylor and Peter Todd have said "if you need privacy, use Monero".
I don’t want it to be this way, but the culture is shifting and privacy is no longer desirable for these fiat corporations and the governments they trust in. That is why they continue to push their sunken cost into lightning. Devs are still trying to figure out how to scale Lightning. How many more decades until they attempt non-custodial privacy?
Bitcoin is a much better store of value than Monero. There is no second best in that department. But I came to Bitcoin because it is supposed to be the best money, and money has many more properties than "store of value".

Does anyone watch The Boys?
**SPOILER ALERT**
Obviously Homelander is Trump. The creators have even said this. In the latest season, a liberal throws a cup at Homelander’s son, so Homelander lasers his head in half. The crowd cheers.
This is a parody of Trump’s comment about shooting someone on 5th Avenue and people would love him.
Homelander has a trial for murder, where he claims self defense. Before the trial, he invites a few of his biggest fans to meet him, and has their heads smashed in with bats.
After he is acquitted for self defense, a new supe named Sister Sage, who is the "smartest person in the world", provokes a riot. Earlier in the show, Sage correctly explained that all democracies fail because the majority are stupid.
They dump the biggest fan’s bodies on the ground during the riot, and when all is settled, their death gives Homelander unconditional support and loyalty.
The media has decades of psychology studies and the government knows how to manipulate our emotions and actions. If all the conspiracies point to the left, who is watching the right?

I don’t like Trump or Biden, but I’m especially suspicious of Trump because he’s not blatantly retarded.

Paul asked @npub1xap…cnde why the miners cannot currently conspire with Amazon (or Mark Zuckerberg or whoever), and Shinobi has not answered this question. I also asked Shinobi multiple times.
Amazon can bribe miners right now, and it gets easier to do so as miners lose revenue every four years. If we want to stop them from conspiring, we have to incentivize them.

Liquid is a multisig pretending to be a sidechain. 15 people control your coins.
Drivechains are sidechains, chosen by 51% hashrate. They are a promise from the miners that they support these sidechains and will not destroy them in 10 minutes.
There is no reason to put sidechain technology on a fake sidechain and see how it does.
If you want to peg out of Liquid, and the Liquid federation wants to give you your Bitcoin, but 51% of miners do not want you to have your coins, they can censor you. They can censor lightning. They can kill every L2, including drivechains.
BIP300 recognizes this, so it does two things to protect itself:
1. Massive fees to miners. Why would miners kill something that always pays them? They are incentivized to protect the sidechains, make them better, and continue mining L1.
2. Six month peg out. This gives us six months to see if the miners are misbehaving, with a constant warning displayed to the world every 10 minutes.
If using a second layer to Bitcoin is its eventual future for the masses, then there is nothing close to drivechains.
BitVM has similar issues, though it’s MUCH better than lightning, and that is why Super Testnet and Robin still support BIP300.

Sure! First you have to download the Drivechain Launcher from:
https://releases.drivechain.info
It will be the file that says drivechain-launcher-latest
Choose your OS (you need Linux or Linux VM for zSide)
Extract and enter all the folders, and then make drivechain_launcher-linux-1.2.0.x86_64 executable
Download and run mainchain at the top, wait for it to sync, and then get an address under Receive
We are not using testnet ( @npub17u5…t4tp broke it), so it will look like a regular Bitcoin address that starts with a 1

Bitcoin University is often shared by Michael Saylor. They want to ossify Bitcoin, and continuously warn about people who want to "change" it.
If consensus is a bunch of popular people shouting "no consensus!", then nothing will ever get done. However, if Bitcoin doesn’t update, then it won’t be able to replace fiat. Saylor knows this, but says it’s good because we shouldn’t compete with dollar.
So all this talk about the evils of fiat is the psyop. They say they hate fiat, but then urge us to comply with the money printers, so that we don’t upset the government.

Yes that’s perfect. So the multisig does not start until both have committed to paying. Once the exchange begins, neither can back out without losing everything.

Thank you Super Testnet. I have been thinking about this, and I’m running into issues with a multisig setup. Perhaps this is something bitVM is also unable to solve.
If Alice adds funds for collateral and Bob refuses to respond, then Alice loses her collateral and it cost Bob nothing.
We could make it where Alice can get her money back if Bob doesn’t respond. However, if Bob does respond and Alice pays, Bob could use his own private key to take back his part. Now Bob has his 10 BTC + the payment, but Alice is short the payment and only gets her collateral back.
So the incentives are better if it’s all or nothing for both, but Bob can be evil for free. Would bitVM run into the same dilemma?

Sure look at lightning. Right now, fees are not too expensive to open a channel, and they haven’t been for years. However, LN is not very easy and most people will never even attempt to try. They will just use custodians, because it’s much easier and they have a busy life.

Okay it’s been updated. I would not use this without collateral because there is no protection. In that case, you are better off trusting a third party or paying cash to a friend.
However, I added a way to use less collateral. It increases the risk, but the seller can still be punished severely for lying.

Yes I’m still working on that haha. You could use KYC, or maybe this could be added to something like Robosats for extra security.

There is a GUI update to Bitcoin Core that would make the wallet a massive CoinJoin with everyone transacting on Bitcoin. You could use this to peg into the zcash sidechain, and have absolute privacy. Nobody would even know you WANT privacy. We will be getting this soon with CUSF.

ARK is not going to work. If the L2 doesn’t pay the miners, and the corporations that run the L2 make more money than the miners, then they are doomed. BIP300 is seriously the only thing that protects us from the miners.

Yes, HODL HODL. Never use your Bitcoin for anything. Die with your Bitcoin. Bitcoin must never change. It’s perfect the way it is.
Can you think of a better way for the government to ensure Bitcoin never replaces their blood money?

Yes, with Core-Untouched Soft Fork. CUSF doesn’t require the Core devs to do anything.

Isn’t it weird that nobody wants to talk about it?

There is a zcash sidechain ready to be deployed on Bitcoin. In fact, with drivechains Bitcoin will always have the latest privacy tech the moment it’s discovered.
Maybe you think better solutions will be built. Cool, build those. We are running out of time.
