actually it's kinda hard to see how you could define bitcoin legislatively when forks are possible. who decides which fork is the "real" bitcoin?

the real bitcoin is the bitcoin that runs on the bitcoin blockchain

they probably should have written the law so the choice of blockchain is delegated to the financial regulator rather than baked into the text

nevertheless, lmao

Ooooh. What if delegated the choice of blockchain and other regulatory body things like that to a DAO.

Code is law!!!

There is no way this can ever go wrong.

absolutely not because they'd just delegate it to something reasonable that technically fulfills the requirements without actually causing too many problems

like doesn't IBM have some imaginary blockchain thing, i'm sure they'd be happy to take a bunch of government money to write "yes this is a cryptocurrency" on a few dollar bills or something

they're not interested in entering in to a constructive dialog, they just want to figure out where all the money went and who embezzled what. definitely not the sort of positive environment sbf would be a part of

ehhhh, as far as statutes go, it's fine. it first defines bitcoin as legal tender, then defines specifically what bitcoin is, presumably so one can't claim eth or bitcoin cash or whatever is bitcoin and thus legal tender.

i thought the "real" bitcoin (as in the most commonly used one) was officially called bitcoin core

seems that legal definition could be interpreted at least as including bitcoin classic, if not any of the other forks

not as many as you'd think! freshmen members don't have the connections yet to live for free and live in group homes together (seriously) or just sleep in their offices and use the capitol facilities to bathe, since it's not like they're actually in DC for more than a few nights when in session. there's some that live on the hill, but not as many as you'd think, and they're almost all senators, since reps might be out in two years, while senators at least have six years. there's definitely some getting discounts but i wouldn't say it's universal, and legislators who have been in office for awhile were able to get in before real estate got too insane. others just keep smaller condos, often outside the city. ron and rand paul shared one in arlington (not sure if rand still has it), as did mccain. i know bernie and mcconnell both have homes within a few blocks of me. mcconnell is, unsurprisingly, an awful neighbor according to my friend who used to have a condo on the same street. aoc lives in an apartment in navy yard above the whole foods
