drivechain.xyz is a well-organized informational website created by a fan of Drivechain (#Bitcoin Improvement Proposals 300-301). I do not know who created the website. It appears to be only a few years old.

it’s been 7 years since wrote the original drivechain blog post
if you went back in time and told me that 7 years later no effort has been made towards merge-mined sidechains but that the same people who opposed them were upset ethereum existed i’d laugh in your face

Imagine how different things would be if we had a trust-minimized way to bridge BTC to other chains, so alt devs and promoters wouldn't be able to use "bitcoin can't do [feature]" as a justification for altcoins' existence.

Imagine how different things would be if all the capital that went into altcoins went into Bitcoin instead.

blockstream's dismal failure with sidechains (after effectively sucking all the air out of the room on the topic) is probably the single biggest setback Bitcoin ever suffered in its entire existence. these people need to seriously self reflect

The Bitcoin Overton Window has widened
so I may now post "The 'Sidechain Vision' for Bitcoin" truthcoin.info/blog/sc-vision
1. BTC must ossify
2. Blocksize must shrink
3. Fee Revenues must rise
4. BTC must become interoperable
5. Lightning isn't enough
6. BTC Dev needs Competition

Want to learn about Drivechain (BIP 300+301), but too lazy to read?
My new **YouTuble Playlist** has **over 30 hours** of Drivechain Content.
youtube.com/playlist?list=
The first video is just 25 mins.
I tried to sort the videos most-useful first, with a big mix of styles.

Read if you are curious about the technical details behind BIP 300/301.
301 in particular is now pretty easy to read.

Ray points out the remarkable ingenuity of Nigerians, where has 1.5M users.
In Jan 2020 inbound remittances in foreign currencies were $2.5B. That fell to $55M by Sep 2020.
Tidal wave of young innovators choosing Bitcoin over fiat rails, choosing freedom over control 🌊

Glad to see #BIP300 getting more attention. Great talk by @Truthcoin @TheBitcoinConf discussing its benefits:
- Bring any feature to bitcoin without changing the mainchain
- Strengthen resistance against contentious forks
- Boost bitcoin's security budget

“toxic maxis” is a silly term coined by ICO leaders to malign those warning others (specifically retail investors) about the trade-offs inherent in the tech and it’s incentive structures
bc the tech is relatively complex this sort of propaganda can have impact...

8 years ago, pushing bitcoin in front of the NYSE. Bringing traders to bitcoincenter 100 feet away. People laughing at us, people yelled at us, police trying to arrest us. My people stood as giants in the face of tyrany. t.co/8twh2blQkY

Switch to kraken and save SATS!

If you are doing a single lump sum investment in #bitcoin every year, there's little difference in fees between exchanges.
However, if you are dollar cost averaging, @krakenfx is the clear winner as @coinbase and @Gemini are over 2.25x more expensive for smaller recurring buys.

I think it's time the Bitcoin community took a more serious look at 's drivechain proposal.
He made it through 2 crypto bubble cycles staying focused on Bitcoin-only.
He could have raised $100 million for a drivechain shitcoin but he stayed true to BTC.

This is extremely true. Many of the most important traders, technical minds, and largest holders don't tweet or even observe the drama on this site.
