They should stop selling all products to and in that county until the case is settled.
They won’t do it, but they should.
Make these morons live with the consequences of their fossil fuel free utopia today.
Cash is good too. But, both Strike and Cash have withdrawal limits set in fiat terms too which is another wrinkle. If we get a big enough God candle it is possible to get corn trapped on any platform with such limits.
Just another reason to withdraw frequently and never trust anyone with more sats than you are comfortable losing.
River is great too. The only reason I don’t use them instead of Strike is that I love hourly DCA.
Knowing I’m buying every dip throughout the day is a huge psychological hack for myself. It shouldn’t matter, but it really does help me not think about the price at all throughout the day.
Strike is also convenient for reloading Lightning balances on any phone wallets.
I would have no trouble recommending River to anyone though, with the caveat that they should withdraw frequently and self custody that vast majority of their stack no matter who they use.
Still using Strike for hourly DCA. I just make sure to withdraw frequently so I never have many sats at risk. The most I would lose now is a week or two of DCA.
River has always handled their own custody and has never outsourced that aspect of their business, supposedly. Don’t know how I’d verify that, but that’s what they say and I don’t have any reason not to believe them.
Right, and I was using both at the time and had been complacent about withdrawing and had a few months worth of corn at risk when Prime started acting sketchy. It was a wake up call for me. I immediately withdrew everything I could at that time and then started ritually withdrawing from both after about a week or so to manage my risk better.
But Strike immediately started to work on separating themselves from Prime and they never forced me to hold my money on Prime for any amount of time. Swan/their employees are still acting like trusting a separate custodian is *safer*.
Seems like it’s almost guaranteed that the corn that I was forced to keep on Swan for 30 days after ACH deposit was rehypothecated by Prime Trust.
This felt like a distinct possibility last fall when Prime started acting sketchy, but the latest news seems to confirm it.
The fact that Swan didn’t act with urgency to separate themselves from Prime was the reason I finally quit using them a couple months ago. The 30 day hold on Prime became something I couldn’t abide.
The fact that Swan is working with the same 🤡 that set up the Prime Trust Ponzi is a huge fucking 🚩
Anyone who gets rugged by Swan in the future has nobody to blame but themselves. 🤷♂️
I don’t care about billionaires in cylinders, octagons, or anywhere else for that matter. 🤷♂️
nostr:note1mt09c38t8yp3gg2gjl8j0nktu3j3kmd0hmrfv43mz9cx333le9jshzxlrmI still remember when it crossed $1T. Then before you knew it, it was $2T. Then $4T.
Shit is logarithmic.
Strike now makes a profit on high priority on chain withdrawals - seems like a 100% markup. That feels more sustainable, if a little excessive.
I’ll be curious to test their lower priority withdrawals to see how much of a markup the charge for those. The 1 hour priority looked like it was close to a 100% markup too, but they don’t list the fee rate in a way that makes it easy to compare. I didn’t pay much attention to what they were charging for the lowest priority.
The best overview of their philosophy, history, and goals.
The word she is looking for is normal.
But the queer theorists can’t abide that because their entire worldview depends on shattering the concept of normal and turning us all into freaks. It’s Marxism with American characteristics for mental midgets, degenerates, and pedophiles.
If only they knew how many hours he’s spent debating Eddie Bravo over the question of flat earth.
And yet, they somehow manage to remain friends even though they vehemently disagree on such a fundamental issue.
Amazing what is possible when two men know if it really mattered they’d fight to the death over it and neither one of them give nearly enough shits to die over such silly arguments.
That’s the real problem with the pussification of the culture. Men know how to fight without crossing the line. They know the difference between hurt feelings and risking death. They know that if they impose their will via force they are risking their own death even if they are the biggest baddest mother fucker in the room. The biggest baddest mother fucker can’t beat an entire group of men that all decide they don’t like being told what to do or think.
The ancient philosophers were right to mix combat sports with intellectual debate.
Narrator: It was definitely not quieter in inscription land.
The degens found new ways to amuse themselves and the 18th was the biggest inscription day yet with more than 200K inscriptions written.
They have managed to keep their cool this time and they avoided bidding fees to the moon, so that’s good.
I should just start expecting them to find new ways to surprise us each time we get close to working off the backlog. 🤷♂️

The self selected experts won’t even deign to debate a presidential candidate on the topic of vaccines, let alone justify themselves to the dirty hoi polloi.
That’s why Joe Rogan’s challenge to that ghoulish fucking pharma prostitute took off.
It’s interesting that the most hysterical supporters of Hotez on Twitter are the same Neocons who have lied us into every catastrofuck of the last 50 years.
Smoking a pork butt and some good cigars today while having a few drinks.
Started with a Padron 1926 40th Anniversary and some nice porters and stouts while the pork cooks.
Will have a Davidoff Year of the Rabbit and a glass of my 30th Anniversary Booker’s after I eat.
You thought it was Father’s Day. No, it’s always Meghan’s Day.
Of course. They just aren’t and won’t be the norm.
Security is much more complex than basic money management and the vast majority of people don’t even trust themselves with basic money management.
Security should never be compromised in an attempt to appeal to the people who refuse to take basic responsibility for their financial futures.
Some dude who spends $450K/year wants to hire someone (who likely wouldn’t even make $450K/year) to help him figure out where he spends all that money. He can’t even be bothered to monitor his own accounts on a monthly basis to make a basic budget. Do you think that guy is ever going to take responsibility for holding his own private keys?
There are multimillionaires asking financial advisors who don’t even have a fraction of their wealth for permission to retire early. Do you think they will hold their own keys?
There will be bitcoin banks. Let’s make sure they are full reserve banks.
I’ve only been paying attention to Lightning node stuff for a month or so, but it seems like LND is just a steaming pile of shit.
I wonder if would be nearly as popular if it wasn’t built into a bunch of node in a box distributions.

Chinese state owned banks have Fed Master Accounts and a full reserve Bitcoin bank from the state of Wyoming like Custodia can’t get one.
It’s insane how corrupt it all is and has been for a very long time. UI/UX ain’t gonna solve that*.
* Most people will never self custody under any circumstances because they don’t trust themselves. But if you give them a chance to bank with a full reserve bank, all bets are off.
Reddit threatening to remove mods en masse is par for the course.
The mods who believe they own their subreddits are clearly not very bright.
Public displays of willful ignorance are a gift.
It’s great to see the same people go off half cocked and spout nonsense with zero understanding of what is actually going on over and over again with each new scenario that pops up. You get to learn exactly who you should flip the BOZO bit on.

Pay attention, this is the US Government’s setup. 
Larry Fink has one playbook.
Use the power that BlackRock’s clients have ceded to him to manipulate the world to match his perverted Neo-Marxist vision.
Anyone celebrating him getting involved with bitcoin and bitcoin businesses is just demonstrating their ignorance about what is going on.
