So with bitcoin you will know how much money they would have been creating (how hard you will be fucked), thereby being able to calculate the risks and giving a signal how much interest you should be asking at this specific bank. In time the shenanigans will lobby the government that audits are not necessary and a thread to the stability of the financial system etc etc.<br/><br/>I guess that all comes back to the education of the people:<br/>- don&#39;t use systems that do fractional reserve banking<br/>- don&#39;t do interest.<br/><br/><br/><br/> <br/><br/> 2026-10-13T15:30:30Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsz7zkqvdej8zjcckkgc8xhchp64504nygmaap7dp3dzmxdnkej0pczyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhkf4swx5 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgqmx0r8xa2y3du5uqhgj0fjz7tagxln3tu8hm5w0af7ud6umn6aq882n4j'>nevent1q…2n4j</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>As if this something new??

I think you are talking about something else then i do. I assume that there is a power above state level which controls the state itself. So it doesn&#39;t matter who actually comes to power in politics as long as the elected officials don&#39;t change/challenge the money creation system. <br/><br/>Because if they would try, they will be dealt with by the many tools they have.<br/><br/>Is my assumption correct? Yes it is actually a fact that the creation of money is a private matter. It is created by commercial and central banks. And the central bank of the united States (the federal reserve) is a private corporation, with private shareholders.<br/><br/>That&#39;s why the USA has a national debt. If it would create its own money there would be no national debt.<br/><br/>So who is the real boss? The hand that gives or the hand that takes?

It says in the middle of the picture (level 1) Banks &amp; Fed receive new money first. No, NO! This is not true. <br/><br/>These words hide the biggest scam on earth. They don&#39;t RECEIVE they GIVE. They give money they create out of nothing when they make a loan to somebody (expanding the money supply). Then they collect the interest and earn FREE money, without performing labour. This is parasitic behavior. <br/><br/>The loan takers (citizens, companies governments) receive the new money and have a net advantage versus the fiat savers in society. The government is part of the sceme. The government could create its own money , without issuing debt and as a consequence no national debt. But they don&#39;t. The moment the government decided to play along or was tricked or forced to accept the sceme the free citizens of a country become not taxpayers for their own benefit but become tax paying livestock to pay of the national debt including interest. So the government becomes the collection mechanism for the money creators. <br/><br/>Always keep this in the back, I mean in the front of your mind when you look at these kind of pictures. <br/><br/> 2026-10-09T07:06:56Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqs9jhf05qxgj7ulaxx28dmumwszea4drhkv8syet8v58zk5ayxde0szyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhkeue42f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsp04a7plpc5w942md3aspdtg9x3vnffaexxpkwsrxgu2atpcrgu9cssvmee'>nevent1q…vmee</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Well you talk about the middle management.

It already happens as some of the miningpools show compliance to the american government. Look at <a href="https://mempool.space/nl/mining">https://mempool.space/nl/mining</a> you can see that around 75% of the blocks are mined by 5 miningpools. In those pools are thousands of miners worldwide, but only 5 miningpool coordinators who built the blocks with transactions. So the CIA has to visit 5 people to censor bitcoin. That is not a lot of work for them, can be done in one day. Already one or two of these miningpools signalled compliance to the american government (I think it is foundry). Maybe the CIA told the others not to signal it publicly. Anyway you probably have still 25% of the miners/pools who are willing to process blacklisted addresses. But then you have to wait 40 minutes instead of 10 minutes. The real shit hits the fan when the regulators force the compliant miningpools not to built on blocks that did proces blacklisted addresses. Your confirmed transaction is still blocked and erased from the mainchain. But I suppose this scenario will only happen if bitcoin is so mainstream and entangled with the real economy that it will incure Hugh cost for society to switch to another system. <br/><br/> 2026-08-31T09:37:41Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsddqhnye457luhjh5z9ffpk6p0amu90tx8kqwa2cd00rde3jyjvuszyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhkw7wf97 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq2p8y4eu2felmc3jhg0hkq2tjkz7xkj477sshnrcsxff5ryr335cq0g4y0'>nevent1q…g4y0</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>There is a link in the article how to do it by hand.

No I mean it is overrated. What I am saying is that bitcoin might be not so censorship resistant. In other words transactions could be blocked by central powers like mining pool coordinators. Who block transactions from being processed in the blocks that their pools mine, because they follow adreslists that are blacklisted by the american government. So if you are on the blacklist your bitcoin payments will not work. <br/><br/> 2026-08-30T17:14:17Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsfqun5l2f280dxhc67aul22mr532hh9x9ldx4quzgmsjayw87swcgzyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhkhpyn3u In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrfs5wueevhqnqvzu5g72t5ej9uspxrpepkdm9rk4drxp80rjvl4cnl2tey'>nevent1q…2tey</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Ofcourse the amount of labor is important, but the price of a good is determined by the subjective valuation of individuals. The value is not determined by the amount of labor put in it. And that is what the labor theory of value states. I have put so many hours in this product so it must have value. It doesn&#39;t work like that. But central planners decide to produce goods with lots of labor and resources and think it has value. It leads to huge misallocation of resources and labor, because in communism you don&#39;t have the feedback loop of subjective valuation through the pricing mechanism they don&#39;t know what to produce in which amounts. You can not do economic calculations without prices. <br/><br/> 2026-08-30T14:54:48Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsq2p8y4eu2felmc3jhg0hkq2tjkz7xkj477sshnrcsxff5ryr335czyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhk9x6307 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqxf8z5mk9a4xs7cn3pqcm6fqp4m8l5k7pfwcfhxtn4w4s820us2s5z6qvh'>nevent1q…6qvh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Why don&#39;t you check <a href="https://armantheparman.com/dicev2/">https://armantheparman.com/dicev2/</a><br/>He also shows how to do everything by hand <br/><br/> 2026-08-29T09:20:17Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqszvpj8ttlqh599k60z5qg7c772ppkj26lmjyku8fr088dstyjy5mgzyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhkacngnf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9yrweyt94hrkkphvhjcx08pd3vmpycx3uylsla079pux3vxteczsrnm5yq'>nevent1q…m5yq</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Overrated: censorship resistance.<br/>Miner centralization and regulatory capture might already be well established.

So a coffee payed with bitcoin becomes a taxable event (capital gains tax). It is essential that not only the behavior of people change, but that private payments are developed for bitcoin for it to become a unit of account. Also the fungibility would improve, preventing bitcoins on a governments blacklist to be censored. <br/><br/> 2026-08-08T08:31:43Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqs0xh0akc4u6g7rzwnghlwjp76u56f2ygmgf4lmdr4fejj7ne4jkzqzyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhkul72gq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqqyfw5ujn08cn9tt0aw5gdx89s8ywr0tprxdgda7n5lt3ga8naq7utpu2'>nevent1q…tpu2</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I have this question too. But from the perspective of the dice itself it will tend to be biased to on side of it self. So either it is biased towards the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. So those are six bias options. I guess, I am not an expert, that this will reduce your entropy significantly. Let&#39;s say you use only one dice that tends towards the side with the number 5 more then the other sides and you throw it 256 times. I think you will throw significantly less combinations, meaning this bias will lead to guessable seeds. <br/>I don&#39;t know what will happen to your entropy if you would use 256 different dices. Does 256 biased dices lower your entropy? Probably not if they do not have the exact same bias. But maybe an expert can answer this question. <br/><br/> 2026-08-07T20:29:02Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqs0j03geqsdfmlrh9652ezqrj7nwgzcadyrad7pky303zhyhflja0gzyzd0gjqq05qzpwp66ecpvvagydnuge4cmd48d6vdtv3duad78eqhk90xrgy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqrwl76zgn88p5t67chc77eguhkawf63fpwzylwydqqxwkqwd3uagmqtree'>nevent1q…tree</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>He could not have fixed it for seeds already created.
