HyperbitcoinAIzation

• Can we get an update on XO templates? Still coming in Q1?

Epstein Files

• 3 million select Epstein files released after years of pressure
• Insane cover up and distractions of course
• NYT: “Bygone era that doesn’t exist”
• Pam Bondi: Refuses to answer questions about Epstein, instead says everyone should talk about DOW and NASDAQ
• Kash Patel had perjured himself
• Accountability: None
• Nobody has been arrested, or even investigated
• Ghislaine has been body switched from prison, Epstein “suicided” and body switched
• Victims “suicided” and ignored, same with journalists investigating the issue
• We’re ruled by satanic pedophile cannibals

Big Blockers

• Gavin tells Epstein he’s too busy to meet him
• Is also mentioned as getting funding in 2015, but later left due to the Blocksize War (and figuring it out?)
• Coinbase was invested in, Brain Armstrong talking about raising blocksize
• Some more dedicated BTC shills have tried to stitch this together into “proof” that really Epstein was part of the “big blocker takeover” but nobody is buying it
• The NYA was public, everyone knew Brian was working on SegWit2x and this isn’t new
• Coinbase have not helped BCH at all since 2017
• It’s not surprising Epstein would try to bet both sides of the fence

Small Blockers

• All the usual suspects show up
• Basically just confirmation of everything in Who Killed Bitcoin
• Adam (“Andy”) Back & Austin Hill from Blockstream went to meet Epstein on his island Little St James
• He invested in Blockstream
• Core devs were funded in the MIT Media Lab
• Bryan Bishop, moderator of the Bitcoin dev mailing list where he gatekeeps BIPs, was asking Epstein for funding on his “designer babies” startups (to grow him sacrifices?)
• Same with Jeremy Rubin & the Chaincode co founders

Unplugging From The Hoaxes

• Conspiracy confirmed: Tether/Bitfinex swayed the split
• Facts confirmed: SegWit was forced onto Bitcoiners that disagreed, there never was “consensus” - completely made up
• Admirably, Mechanic has come to agree that big blockers had some good points and were right about the corruption of dev funding
• Eventually he’ll come to realise the same is true of contention about the technical design of Bitcoin, but that is still yet to be realised.
• So far, he’s at the point that SegWit/Taproot weren’t great upgrades

That's called obsession

It's something that you live

The only single thing that matters

After your wife and your kids

​

Cos if you can't learn to float

Then you sink or you swim
