"I wanted to take some time today to elaborate on my position. The vision of distributed sovereign small (and large) nation states and city states being erected around stranded energy sources that are leveraged to mine bitcoin."

"Energy assets are spread across county, state and international lines."

Issue #943: Downward difficulty adjustment coming
by @martybent

https://tftc.io/martys-bent/issue-943

"A few provinces in China have banned bitcoin mining and those miners have had to unplug and move their equipment in recent weeks. This is probably the reason hashrate has fallen since the last difficulty adjustment instead of remaining static."

Marty's Ƀent Issue #937: Application > Theory

"Here is possibly my favorite quote from Satoshi, which highlights the fact that he was a pragmatic builder instead as opposed to a theorizing academic: 'I actually did Bitcoin kind of backwards. I had to write all the code before I could convince myself that I could solve every problem, then I wrote the paper.'”

"pragmatic building > ideal theory"

Marty's Ƀent #936: They're playing games

One of the reasons I can see them [discontinuing M2 Weekly, keeping only Monthly] is because they know markets would react poorly if they had the info available on a more consistent basis. It acts as a way to obfuscate the scale at which they are expanding the monetary base just as hedonic adjustments obfuscate the true rate of inflation."
