Jordan: How are you? It has been just over a year from my first message to your office on the Chelsea School flag pole. Any updates on that? I was going to send the councilman a message on Instagram, because we talked about the flag pole and Story Hour on Instagram, but I think he blocked me. Can you let me know on that as well? Have a great day!

Cryptocurrency: Adoption of Chaumian Ecash in Bitcoin

Any plan Bitcoin-BTC had to actually scale as Satoshi's "P2P Electronic Cash" died with Satoshi. Maxi's like to claim all their wonderous tabs and layers and feds and "non-custodial" custodials and "settled" un-settled's and "un-centraled" centraled's and "p2p" not-p2p's and "private" non-private's and other nonsense they keep dreaming up, were and are a Bitcoin thing. And that the facts they keep denying are not a thing. Bitcoin-BTC will eventually be out-competed, and whatever out-compete's it will no longer be recognizable as Satoshi's bitcoin whitepaper genesis, even if they do manage to fork its nominal UTXO's into an unfair premine which no one will want. To fix "bitcoin" is to change it away from the limitations inherent in the Satoshi model. They already had to add SegWit and LN and Inscriptions, and they still have nothing to show for it, and now they're trying to contort it out even further. They should admit and fess up to that reality and stop lying about it, but they can't, because they'll lose face. An OG P2P Distributed Global Private Electronic Cash System will eventually prevail... and it will be Cash Currency Sound Money Store, and won't claim to conform to or be the "Bitcoin" whitepaper. Until then enjoy the Maxi's killer centralized price adoption app... ETF's ;) While creating the actual real OG-P2P-DG-PEC's the world needs.
