Read_425 – If You Only Read One Thing Before Buying Bitcoin… [Sylvain Saurel]
“By buying Bitcoin, you are not making a mistake. But if you buy Bitcoin and stop there after your first purchase, you’re making a mistake.” – Sylvain Saurel
A great introduction into Bitcoin by Sylvain that hits the most important rules you need to know before opening the door to the rabbit hole. The monetary system we know is a system the induces inequality and poverty, greed is your enemy, altcoins miss the entire point, not your keys – not your bitcoins, & this will change your life. Today we read, “If You Only Read One Thing Before Buying Bitcoin, Read These Few Lines.”

Read_423 – 3 Reasons I’m Investing in Bitcoin [Lyn Alden]
“If a few percentage points of a portfolio are allocated to it, there is a limited risk of loss… On the other hand, it’s not out of the question for Bitcoin to triple, quadruple, or have a potential moonshot price action from current levels” – Lyn Alden
An excellent article from investment advisor Lyn Alden who has recently become bullish on Bitcoin, both in the immediate future, and possibly for the long term. Breaking down the nature of Bitcoin’s scarcity, the strengthening network effect, the growing security and trust, and the macro environment that could make it an important part of the global financial sphere, we read Alden’s excellent post title “3 Reasons I’m Investing in Bitcoin.”

Read_421 – Lightning as a Retail Payment System [Nicolas Burtey]
“Privacy is at the root of Lightning which is a requirement for a retail payment network to succeed. It builds on Bitcoin which does not optimize for privacy⁵ but transparency and robustness.” – Nicolas Burtey & Chris Hunter
As excellent piece today from the Galoy Money team that compares the current world of retail payment infrastructure with the incredible potential of a similarly architected, but fundamentally more open, permissionless, private, and censorship resistant payments system built with the Bitcoin & Lightning protocol stack. An excellent piece with a sobering, but hugely bullish vision of a Bitcoin future.

Read_420 – BIP 9, 8, or MSFA, How Bitcoin Could Upgrade Next [Aaron Van Wirdum]
“This risk is probably best countered by offering enough time to upgrade. Unfortunately, not everyone agrees on how much time is enough; some think forced signaling could start within a year, others believe it should take several years.” – Aaron Van Wirdum
Taproot is here! Now just how the hell do we decide to do the upgrade? Aaron Van Wirdum brings us another great piece at Bitcoin Magazine on the varied discussions on how to implement a Bitcoin soft fork in the post-SegWit days. Do we have PTSD, or are we ready for another leap in the Bitcoin protocol?

Read_419 – Twitter Hack & The Need for a User-Owned Internet [Nic Carter]
“Trusted third parties are security holes” isn’t just a slogan; it’s a concept that millions of people will have intuitively grasped for the first time yesterday.” – Nic Carter
I’m sure you’ve heard about the insane social media takeover by a hacker looking to make a little Bitcoin by now. Nic Carter writes an op-ed on Coindesk breaking down his take on the event and how it calls attention to the huge problems of centralization on the web and social media, and what the possible solutions might look like. Will this finally push massive change in online security, or will it be quickly forgotten like the many hacks before it?

Read_418 – Bitcoin, More Than An Inflation Hedge [Nick Neuman]
“Bitcoin’s capped supply is one of its most well-known features, and it is regularly cited as a hedge against inflation caused by government money printing.
Most people don’t know that Bitcoin has another attribute that acts as a hedge against a far larger risk.” – Nick Neuman
Today we read a short article on BitcoinMagazine that shines light an incredible benefit of the Bitcoin system that isn’t so widely understood. It isn’t simply an independent monetary policy, its an independent monetary *system,* and by that fact a hedge against the instability of much more than merely inflation. Listen to today’s episode to find out more!
Link to the original with tons more to explore from the author and recent articles at Bitcoin Magazine:
