And there it is, virtually unlimited runtime “scripts” on Bitcoin. Achieved via constructing fraud-proofable Boolean circuits in Taproot. In theory circuits can have up to 2^128 gates.

Working to remove eth from our marketplace. Revenue is nice but integrity trumps all
As an engineer, I understand that ETH is a very poorly designed protocol that does not follow 1st principles. ETH will fail because it has too many variables. ETH is a foundation of sand. #Bitcoin is a foundation of granite. Watch @jimmysong explain here youtu.be/1Or5El-yC44

Just a reminder that #BTC1 has a Real-Name-Policy/KYC requirement on the developer level They couldn't possibly be more Anti-#Bitcoin #NO2X nitter.gq/AaronvanW/status/88221…

Satoshi will also be out of luck if he tries to join the SegWit2x mailing list.

Truly one of the most gifted developer I ever met (and I code since 25 years). Sometimes I caught myself wishing I would be as good as him 🤓 nitter.gq/weratebitcoiner/status…
Meet @pwuille. A metahuman. The brains behind Segwit. More core commits than anyone living. Will correct his compiler occasionally. 15/10

When you don't even realize volume on exchanges has nothing to do with actual use or actual transactions. nitter.gq/gavinandresen/status/8…
Replying to @starkness @zaoyang
ETH has 80% of BTC volume and is scaling with little drama. BTC's scaling 'problem' is due to a few 'we know what's best' devs

BIP148 is coded, reviewed, and already begun deployment. It's also a softfork with community support, not a contentious hardfork.

Please retweet if disabling covert AsicBoost is more important to you than bigger blocks.

Please retweet if you oppose handing over the entire #Bitcoin network to a company seeking to take as much in fees and monopolize mining.

I'm not exactly 'pro-core': I'm anti-bullshit and core has been consistently reasonable and their detractors have been consistently insane

When u realize that the guy whose blog got you into bitcoin 6y ago still doesn’t know what a Sybil attack is 🤔 nitter.gq/Falkvinge/status/84573…
True, but isn't it a fair assumption that code that calls itself by a name, also actually runs that name?

There's also a weird MLM scheme happening across Asia in ETH. $500m in vol. Bots rampant. EntEth. Perfect storm.

Great response from @adam3us to @rogerkver. We shouldn't try to turn Bitcoin into PayPal 2.0. (h/t @bitcoin_experts)
