A great tradition is returning. The Satoshi Nakamoto Institute Annual Dinner is back, and we hope you’ll join us for a memorable evening on Thursday, March 12th, 2026, in Austin, TX. Space is limited. Reserve your seat below.

Be patient, my friends.

People are excited about Ralph Wiggum, but @blocks and @jack quietly released what I'm dubbing Principal Skinner, an adversarial feedback loop to better ensure complex task success. "Adversarial Cooperation In Code Synthesis" >This paper introduces dialectical autocoding: a novel approach to AI-assisted software development that transcends the limitations of current vibe coding tools through a structured coach-player feedback loop. By implementing a bounded, adversarial process between two cooperating agents, we demonstrate how intelligent AI programs can make substantially more progress on complex coding tasks, resulting in better tested, more robust implementations, while working around fundamental attention and human-in-the-loop limitations.

"Those foundations are here for El Salvador to be building on in perpetuity." @bitstein is the OG Bitcoin historian, as the founder and president of the @NakamotoInst. His work preserves a digital archive of the most important ideas and conversations from Bitcoin's history and pre-history. In this mini-interview at El Salvador's National Palace during Bitcoin Histórico, the extraordinary event produced by @stacyherbert and @maxkeiser and the @bitcoinofficesv, we discussed: - why Bitstein founded the Nakamoto Institute in 2013 - some examples of their most famous articles and terms they've popularized such as "speculative attack" and "hyperbitcoinization" - his first impression of El Salvador - why it's important for Bitcoiners to understand history If you agree that it's important to preserve Bitcoin's history, you can click the quoted post to learn more about the Nakamoto Institute and support their work:

Merry Christmas! Joyeux Noël! Fröhliche Weihnachten!

My niece Stella makes the case for AI optimism, bitcoin as savings, and @AlphaSchoolATX 's model for education. If you've ever worried whether the kids are alright, Stella will make you excited about GenZ/Alpha entering the economy.

It would be shameful for the United States if Keonne and Bill spend a single day in prison.

Your continued noise is working. Thank you to everyone pushing @realDonaldTrump to pardon Bill and me. Let's get this over the line. #pardonsamourai

As an aside, even if people literally hold cash at home rather than spending, saving in a bank/money market, or investing there is not a "loss" to the economy. Hutt explains this in "The Yield from Money Held." The holder subjectively prefers the certainty and readiness of cash, and the broader effect of many people holding cash bids prices down and increases purchasing power. nakamotoinstitute.org/librar…
