“Vengeance Rewards Me Greatly”

I appreciate this young man’s shouting into the internet void. He was inspired to start broadcasting from his car (that he sleeps in for now) by a recent lost battle in the Bitcoin space.

For the past year or so a large group of developers have worked to tighten the rules of the Bitcoin protocol. They had, and have, legitimate concerns. And they took the time in recent years to produce and promote code changes that would dramatically help Bitcoin to improve.

At bottom the dispute is over whether Bitcoin will separate money and state. The protocol was designed to accomplish that lofty goal when the first block was mined over seventeen years ago. It is more important that this happen today than it was then.

Much more important.

As Neal Flesher points out in his insightful book entitled “Modern Chains,” the philosophy of Bitcoin represents humanity’s first opportunity to create a form of money that satisfies Aristotle’s six fundamental characteristics of money. Here’s my robots description:

Aristotle’s six characteristics of money:

1. Durable — survives wear and tear, doesn’t rot or break down.
2. Portable — easy to carry and move around.
3. Divisible — can be split into smaller units to make change.
4. Intrinsic value — worth something in itself, not just as a promise.
5. Limited supply — scarce; you can’t just print more of it.
6. Acceptable — people actually agree to take it in trade.

Bitcoin is durable, portable, divisible, intrinsically valuable, limited in supply and increasingly acceptable. I highly recommend you take time to obtain Neal’s PDF for free from this website and read his argument on these points in “Modern Chains.”

Our young YouTuber is creating videos because after two decades the protocol, many believe (including me), was captured. Bitcoin is being manipulated by greedy and powerful global government/corporation aligned forces. The evidence of the capture amassed over the past decade in incident after incident. The proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back came on August 8, 2026.

On that day the miners of the chain decided to fork off. The heart and soul developers fired them. Chainboarder is a heart and soul developer, dedicated to the idea that money must not be owned, defined and managed by any central authority.

He’s so dedicated to the idea that he lives in his car even though his Bitcoin hoard makes it possible for him to live comfortably.

The video is super short. Just five minutes.

His comment about Christianity at the end is simplistic, but understandable given the extreme feminization of the faith … especially in the West.
