Argentina me alegra mucho 👍
And she is partially succeeding, not with her policies, but with ordinals. As I mentioned before, because of tx fees caused by ordinals I am keeping more of my sats with custodians.
So there are three options:
- either tx fees go down and stay there I do not care how
- or a very nice physical shop opens in Lithuania and it sells all existing miner models of all generations with reasonable margin
- or Warren keeps winning.

Sorry, dude. You have to admit there are NPCs, and there will always be. They are created by very small mistakes in the first few years of their lifes. It is unavoidable, and in most cases - unfixable.
We can only influence how hostile they will be to the players.
I would not be too surprised if it was true.
Ha ha. It's like Hitler protecting France from fascism.
There are risks on both sides. And this one looks like smaller at the moment to me.
If you are certain you will not need to spend your savings for like 10 years, your risk profile may be different.
The part of my savings that I do intend to keep for 10 years plus, I do keep in my cold storage.
14 custodians sounds not too bad. I will have to study Liquid more when my stack at various exchanges grows too big. So far I feel like I know exchanges and custodial lightning wallets better than I do Liquid.
Here's how the math deep inside works:
I am the most valuable the most important asset in the universe.
Therefore, ensuring I get what I need is the most critical task always, and all other values, principles, wellbeing and existance of anything and anyone fades compared to this one.
While I do have other moral values like decentralization, preserving everyone's individual sovereignty, caring for children, etc., honestly, they are lower priority than my happiness.
My happiness is a complex thing, that consists of happiness of those around me among other things. But bottom line is - if I am unhappy I cannot help anyone and the world ends.
So, when sideing with my worst enemies like centralization, collectivism and fascism weighs down the scale of my happiness, make no mistake, I will side with them.
Anyone who thinks he is different is either an NPC or simply lieing to oneself. And surely, when lying to yourself, you do not take optimal decisions.
In other words: you are built in an image of a god. So you are god. So act like one.
I don't give a damn what any judge or government thinks about anyone, including Binance. So I go on using Binance, especially that I find their system exceptionally high quality. Now, because of tx fees caused by ordinals, I also use Binance (among other custodials) for long time storing a part of my savings.
If you wondering why the degens are willing to pay exorbitant fees to create tokens and NFTs on chain where block space is limited and slow and have no interest in moving to a side chain which could be cheaper, here's a break down of reasons why they like the way things are and won't be keen on changing it

The sats I am buying these days stay at custodians, as crazy as it is. Tx fees are like insurance policy, that is too high. I am taking the risk.
What does 808 mean? I don't like zaps that I don't know what the amount means :)
A quick reminder that whoever thinks that he lives in, or there is anywhere such, or ever will be a democracy in a western popular understanding sense, that is also truly independent and not subserviant to another autocracy, he is an NPC.
Not an insult. Just a straightforward truth.
Recently bitcoin and shitcoins are all bulltraps and beartraps left and right several times a day. Which part of "don't try to play the market" did they not understand?

By now, having a Green wallet and using Liquid is no longer an option but a necessity.

I have no clue about Liquid, so I will ask straight what I am thinking:
How is it any different from pegging some of my bitcoin into Binance and using Binance internal transfers between users? There even are no tx fees at all. If you do not like KYC with your small transfers, go for BLink instead of Binance. So what is the difference? If I am correctly informed, Liquid is centralized and custodial anyway.
Quite obviously Ukrainians are being force sorted strictly till the last one:
1. Anti-war pro-west. Those must defect to the west
2. Anti-war pro-east. Those must defect to Russia.
3. Pro-war. Those are conscripted and must die at war.
Obviously, judging by limited arming on both sides, both sides support this plan. So the faster all Ukrainians pick a side, the sooner this will end. Since the entire world is in on it, there is no other way out.
There are also hunters among bitcoiners, not only farmers. But those prefer not to give out their position.
It is a huge relief for me. I hated investing so much and did not think there would ever be any escape from it. Other than living like a recluse.
There can still be joined ventures (between individuals, without collective property) that can produce things too big to be produced by a single individual. So it is not the end of civilization, just rebuilding on different foundation.
Imagine building a car. I bring my parts, you bring yours. We put them together, but we continue owning each one separately, until we sell the car to somebody who pays each of the owners of the parts individually. Simple.
