Shadowban analysis websites tell me that my account is fine, yet my post engagement has reduced drastically in the last couple of weeks.

Terrible time to launch season 5 of @BTCTKVR (now on iTunes & Spotify).

Anyway, I’ll attach the links to this thread, maybe they will gain more visibility if they’re packed together.

This interview with @nopara73 is a must-listen for everyone interested in BTC privacy. Explains some upcoming features like #P2EP: bitcoin-takeover.com/s5-e6-nopara73…
Also, @criptobastardo talks about his experiences in Venezuela, where he organizes secret educational meetings with @satoshienvzla & sometimes deals with the harassment of secret police.

It’s a lesson about opsec & personal security 👇🏻

This interview with @alececere is on fire. After having had bad experiences with hyperinflation & banks, this guy lives and breathes Bitcoin. Now he's working on a full node product that's both technologically & artistically appealing @coinspree.

In S5 E2, @LeoWandersleb talks about his project @WalletScrutiny and classifies Android wallets according to the likeliness of having your bitcoins stolen by evil developers.

We also talk about why Samourai Wallet is not verifiable & what this means.

Diary from Prague (long thread):

1/ On my way from the airport to the hotel, I got recognized by Roy from Breez wallet. He became the first of 300 conference attendees to receive a free BTCTKVR sticker.

Three days later, I was walking around the Prague city center and I… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
2/ BTC Prague was the first event where I met fellow Romanians. On Monday morning, I had breakfast with Vlad Stan from LNBits (motorina0). Two days later, my friend Daniel Ses came to town to record some videos from the conference.

On Saturday, I’ve also met Liviu and his… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
3/ While I love my Romanians, the Polish bitcoin community is by far the most fun. I partied with some guys and gals in the hotel lobby on Friday night, we had enough strong alcoholic drinks to anesthetize a horse, we danced the polka and told bad jokes.

During these moments,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

I usually stay away from price predictions, but this time I couldn't help it. Just published "10 reasons why bitcoin will hit $100.000 in 2021".

Share it with a normie friend, maybe he/she will understand the value proposition of #Bitcoin

bitcoin-takeover.com/10-reasons-why…
Reason no. 1: during its 12 year-old existence, Bitcoin has performed a lot better as a store of value than gold.

bitcoin-takeover.com/at-41k-bitcoin…
Reason no. 2: Bitcoin is easier and less expensive to transfer than gold. This one is pretty self-explanatory, as gold is heavy and expensive to secure.

However, I believe that we should look up to gold a lot more often & look down to USD less frequently

After reading some headlines, I decided to watch the #Debate2020 myself and draw my own conclusions. As a political science graduate, I know a little something about media headlines, partisanship & ownership.

So here's a thread with my personal analysis/takeaways 🧵
1/ It was easy for me to observe the strategies of both candidates.

Trump's plan was to make Biden look old, weak, senile, out of touch, incompetent after 47 years in office, corrupted, involved with Russia & China through his son Hunter, and a mere puppet of the radical left.
2/ Biden's strategy was to look into the camera and address the viewers as often as he can. He appealed to emotions, described mundane situations that the everyday American had faced & essentially made it look like he relies on the judgment of viewers more than on his debating.

New Song: Bitcoin Bounce

While playing Bitcoin Bounce by @jackeveritt & @thndrgames, I realized that the game still doesn't have a soundtrack. So I wrote & recorded a song which has 3 sections of varying intensity.

Hope it gets added to the game 👇

Download the song for free on Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/user-87506791-…

Decided to research Bitcoin pr0n and found this gem:

– Couple tries to buy BTC from ATM, stranger approaches them to inform that fees are too high;
– Stranger takes them to their office to sell them BTC in person.
– Boyfriend doesn't have enough money, so he trades GF for 1 BTC. ImageImage
*his office. Sorry, I'm not very good at typing with one hand.
The girl even has her engagement ring on. Nice touch. Image

I'm running an experiment to see if a crowdfunded podcast can work in the Bitcoin space.

🚫No sponsored ads to ruin the conversations' flow & no sponsored guests who shamelessly shill because they paid for airtime.

🔥Pure content.

🪙Donate to @BTCTKVR

patreon.com/bitcointakeover
Also, no compromises with shitcoins. Even McLarp has shitcoin donation addresses on his website, even if he makes more than most Bitcoin devs from sponsorships.

I'm not interested in getting rich here, I just want to produce the purest form of Bitcoin content w/ interesting ppl.
There are interesting people out there who work on Bitcoin projects every day, but nobody pays attention to their work. I'd rather interview them than the popular company CEO who goes to every podcast.
