    I'm a single issue voter now Why? It's simple. People vote for politicians based on their promises to fix core issues (economy, immigration, social issues, etc.) None of that can be fixed with broken money. Best case = bandaid solutions. Fix the money. Fix the world. #bitcoin

    1/13: 🚨 Alpha Leak ⚡️ If you run a ranked Lightning node on Terminal Web, you can earn yield on your #bitcoin in a non-custodial, trustless way while improving the Lightning Network *right now* through @lightning Pool 🌊 Time for a thread 🧵👇

    been lurking on #bitcoin Twitter for a long time now.. bitcoiners have been proven right about a lot of stuff across a wide range of fields (economics, energy, pathology, more). it's pretty remarkable. does grasping proof of work cause it to leak into all aspects of life?

    1/14: Lightning⚡️Network developers are attracting users by solving problems in novel ways. Thus far, those solutions are mostly global micropayment based. But, what if consumer micropayments are just the tip of the spear for the Lightning Development Stack? Time for a thread 🧵

    technocratic, competent leaders responding to criticism and explaining plans in public using data is a good thing. we should try to have more of that in the US.

    Ok, ID-10t, I’m going to school you again, not because it’s going to be of use for you, since you’re just getting paid to attack #Bitcoin and defend fiat, but because the people deserve to know you are a fraud.

    1/13: In the attached blog post, the first of a two part series, I explore how the adoption of #Bitcoin can be explained by understanding its dual adoption curves: #Bitcoin , the asset, and #Bitcoin , the network. michael-levin.medium.com/part-1-the-dua… A thread 👇🧵👇

    In retrospect, it was inevitable. If you're a content creator business not thinking about a #bitcoin + Lightning⚡️ strategy, you're already falling behind.
