I always fall back on Holmes, paraphrasing [when you can deduce who will benefit most from a crime, you have your culprit.] I told you already i have no salt in this discussion, i simply observed you using the definition of spy and holding it up as evidence he is in fact not a spy. I dont know how much you know about the Cold War and Russia, but the CIA liason to Russia at that time, was ultimately a Russian spy. Aldrich Ames. Edward lee howard.

He’s referring to the longterm implications of global trade happening in Bitcoin and how mining hashrate percentages in each country will effectively act as the base wealth transfer direction between nations. His theory that countries will compete with each other to control hashrate makes total sense to me. Either directly or through incentives, a country with more hashrate per capita will be subsidized by the transaction fees of the rest of the world. We will likely see country level subsidies aimed at expanding local hashrate to push other countries into a loss (in an attempt to push mining out elsewhere and control more in the long run without the ongoing subsidy). Lots of interesting game theory to think about and it doesn’t really have anything to do with classifying Bitcoin as violence. If anything he’s arguing that it’s a legitimate stand in for violence. “Economic violence” in the sense that its “physical power projection” is all he’s saying. It’s provocative wording. permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]Background_Target_80 1 point2 points3 points 5 months ago (1 child) Kind of, he is correct that bitcoin converts energy into property defense. permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]Fiach_Dubh 2 points3 points4 points 5 months ago (0 children) Non violently permalink embed save parent report give award reply [+]KeyPhotojournalist96 comment score below threshold-8 points-7 points-6 points 5 months ago (0 children) Correct.

Either the transaction happened on the blockchain or it didn’t, and that 1/0 state could be turned into a method of global computing. Normally we want computers to be faster and cheaper. But when you’re trying to protect important things (say, the use of US nuclear missiles) it makes sense to use the beefiest/most secure network to protect that information/computing even if it’s “slower”. He talks a lot about power projection as a barrier to keep enemies from attacking you, and this led to some semantic dustups around the definition of a weapon and the definition of violence. But the ultimate point being that the Bitcoin network itself has immense importance to whatever nations can integrate the defensive power proof of work provides, because anything else is a lot more susceptible to hostile attacks. I’m not smart enough to know if it’s all a big PsyOp by the american government, but anyone who writes it off whole-cloth because they get triggered over the words weapon or violence needs to take a deep breath and use their brains a little bit more. Semantics matter, but you have to be able to get past the surface level of the semantics to understand the real thesis. permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]badbilliam 7 points8 points9 points 5 months ago (0 children) Well said.

Is there a reason I should read this? permalink embed save report give award reply [–]infii123 35 points36 points37 points 5 months ago (10 children) No idea, but here's a short description. This is a high-definition, color-printed manuscript of an academic thesis written by Major Jason Lowery, an active-duty US Space Force astronautical engineer and US National Defense Fellow at MIT tasked with advising senior US military leaders about the national strategic implications of Bitcoin. In this thesis, Lowery presents a novel theory to the US Department of Defense that Bitcoin doesn't just represent a peer-to-peer cash system, it also (and more importantly) represents a new form of digital-age warfare that will transform national security, cyber security, and possibly even the base-layer architecture of the internet. Using scientific concepts from biology, evolution, anthropology, political science, and computer theory, Lowery summarizes the dynamics of power projection in human society and provides an argument for why emerging proof-of-work technologies (namely Bitcoin) will have a dramatic impact on how humans organize, cooperate, and compete on a global scale by empowering populations to project physical power in, from, and through cyberspace. Major Lowery concludes that Bitcoin represents a national strategic imperative that the US should support and adopt as quickly as possible, else it risks losing its lead as a global superpower in the 21st century. permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]maybeitsjustu 28 points29 points30 points 5 months ago (3 children) You had me at "color-printed"! permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]waldoagave 4 points5 points6 points 5 months ago (0 children) Only 29 cents young chap! permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]Umpire_State_Bldg 4 points5 points6 points 5 months ago (1 child) Dude!

For a long time I have thought that the US has the most to lose from the global adoption of bitcoin. This is because the US has enjoyed great advantage by having its national currency used as the world reserve currency. The US global influence over the last 100 years is closely, if not directly tied to this advantage. The best thing the US could do would be to be among the first global powers to Integrate bitcoin, which probably would be painful at first, but failing to do so timely is likely of far greater consequence. permalink embed save parent report give award reply [–]cliff_smiff 1 point2 points3 points 5 months ago (0 children) If this is going to be the US' strategy, why shout it from the rooftops all over social media and every podcast known to man? permalink embed save parent report give award reply [+]Umpire_State_Bldg comment score below threshold-6 points-5 points-4 points 5 months ago (0 children) it also (and more importantly) represents a new form of digital-age warfare that will transform national security, cyber security, and possibly even the base-layer architecture of the internet.

It's completely the wrong message. It's the exact opposite of the message we've been trying to spread. Realise that once they can call it a weapon, they can call you a terrorist for using it. permalink embed save report give award reply [–]lppaRetupmoc 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children) Bitcoin can potentially be an effective tool in the field of power projection, since its decentralized nature allows it to operate on a global scale. The key is to recognize its potential as a strategic component in the national security and economic landscape. As technology advances, Bitcoin and its underlying blockchain technology may prove to be a powerful asset for any nation looking to gain a competitive edge in the global marketplace. permalink embed save report give award reply [–]GodOfOdium 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children) Not sure why call it softwar "war"?? Why not "softfaircompetetion" or "softpeace" Bitcoin is hardly a war but more of a fair competition, sharing method or a fair value method. permalink embed save report give award reply [–]VeryThicknLong 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children) Someone needs to learn how to kern permalink embed save report give award reply [–]robstream 0 points1 point2 points 1 day ago (0 children) Not available??? permalink embed save report give award reply
