So I got a day off today. Naturally, I spent the whole day playing Tears of the Kingdom, but I did leave the conference livestream on in the background and paid some attention to it when I'm not busy fighting a moblin or a construct. A few thoughts:

  • oh the shitcoinery... I thought it was a bitcoin conference?
  • too many politicians, wtf? I don't believe mass adoption will occur through politicians or nation state adoptions. Mass adoption will only occur through education and people truly understanding bitcoin.
  • I like Saylor's 10 rules. Those are good advices, easier said than done though. But definitely worth mentioning to young people, or actually other people in general.
  • is Mallers trying to imitate Apple? All those UI redesigns and even the slides seem very Apple like... either way, good to see another entrepreneur trying to grow their business. Personally, I don't really care about custodial services and KYC services. Let the free market decide, over the long run, if Strike is worthy or not.
  • oh man, they didn't fight when talking about ordinals and inscriptions. I was looking forward to some action. Should have got Max Keiser on there, much better chance of seeing him throw some punches at those kids.
  • TOTK is such a great game and I'm glad my main focus of the day was on TOTK and not the conference...

There is a huge difference between running a routing node and just running your node to plug into the rest of the network. The former is indeed more demanding, I think the latter is still very doable for a plebs.

I ran a pretty profitable node more than a year ago, even though I am not that technical. But back then, mistakes were not that costly... so in the current environment, I agree that you better know your shit, or that you learn quickly from your mistakes.
