Are you saying exchanges own BTC somewhere where it does not count as "BTC on exchanges"?

Please do not read this superficially. Every single word every single letter every single subtle meaning is crucial in this. You make a micro mistake in understanding this, you take a radically wrong path.

Nature or Samsara if you like is absolutelly exact and universal with no dual meanings no half truths and totally unforgiving. It does present new opportunities again and again, but the lost time is lost forever.

This does look like it is coming. After a number of years all the ETFs' clients will be rugged one way or another (it would make sense to me), but for 2024, what prices do you predict?

Here goes mine, based on thin air:

Q1 - 400k USD

Q2 - 250k

Q3 - 300k

Q4 - 500k

🤣

You are so bullish about 2024, you make me worry that I bought some holidays for 2024 too early. We will see.

It is illegal because it is very convenient for the masters to make something like that illegal:

- It is useful for taste and stimulating effect, therefore there is always demand for it. From this perspective it is totally equivalent to coffeine, so they just picked one to ban. When there is demand for it, you can use it to divide people, to make sure both sides view each other as idiots and as violating their "rights".

- It is also convenient to push people to purify it, because it is not as deadly as coffeine in similar quantities. But as anything in purified state is dangerous and looks freaky. So you can easily demonize its proponents.

- The plant is not very much spread accross the world, but is also abundant in certain locations. So there is sufficient supply to make the scale of the "problem", but also relatively easy to control the areas where it grows.

Cancer may be difficult to cure once it starts growing. It is like saving a skyscraper once its demolition has started. I doubt cocaine could do the magic just like that. But I must say Yerba de Coca tea is delicious in Peru. And I did not notice any negative effects.

Also, not getting cancer is actually very easy. Just don't eat and don't drink sugars and carbohydrates. You only need not much fresh fruits and almost no seed/potato products. Water, meet, fish and eggs and not much vegetables (perhaps some every other day) should do it. And be happy. Cancerogenuous materials are still a thing, but if you live that life style, you are much much more resistent to them.

How crazy must one be to buy into such an absurd.

I only tried Facebook for the first time in 2020 when covid madness started. That's where most people I knew at the time were. That's when I was still shocked that everyone around me believed total fairytales told by absolute clouns and turned full fascist. I thought I could still save them. After that failed, after years of total darkness, Nostr brought a lot of joy with all the sanity in here.

Wow. This is so true.

Then they turn very modest and say "no, no, I respect everybody's freedom, I have almost no rights, I just have a right to safety..."

Oh yeah. And they don't only steal money when they are lieing. It is the only thing governments ever do. If I look back at my life, even police, firefighters, medics and public schools are useful to individuals only in movies. Never in my life have they actually helped me or anybody I know. There were cases when I needed their help, and they failed every single time. Sometimes because of lousy individuals, sometimes because they do not know their job well enough, sometimes because of their processes, but they failed always.

So even when I see them cleaning my street I know they are stealing my money even by doing that - cleaning.

For us, there is nothing to resist. It is not like we are buying up bitcoin to be able to buy more fiat later.

Governments, corporations and citizens just do what they are told. There is no such word resistance in their vocabulary.

No doubt about this:

Yeah, those who were concious at the time of this supposed trip, should be ashamed. But for those who came later - this is totally irrelevant. I never really thought anything about the trip to the moon. Maybe someone lied something about Napoleon or Cesar, too. Maybe they lie that there are scientists living in Antarctica. Who knows. But who cares. Maybe someone who has any interest there should care, but I don't.

I had a realization that surprised even me. I think I am liking the total NPCs of nowadays better than I liked them in any of their previous stages. Even compared to before feminism, when they were actually smart. The thing is that they never were genuinely good. Unfortunately they weren't. When they were smarter they were more fun for me and I was still able to contain the ones around me. But they were not genuinely good, they had to be contained. But in other places they were not contained. And that gave them power. And this is how we are here in this fiat world. I would like to hope that it was fiat currency corrupting them, not vice versa, but I am not very hopefull in this regard.

Let's see what happens with bitcoin. But until it is obviously safe, I would rather keep them dumb, soft and harmless as they currently are.

I don't really want them to have any bitcoin.

I actually do not wait for any dips. I buy whenever I get fiat. If a dip comes when I am out of fiat, I borrow the amount of fiat that I am about to get soon, and buy the dip.

I never have any fiat at all. I live on a credit card. When fiat income comes, I cover the credit card debt, any other debts, and if anything is left, I buy bitcoin.

I am not promoting Buddhism, but Buddha did have some valid advices. One of them, to prioritize things worth spending time on, and spend your time on the highest priorities as much as possible. Things like what somebody somewhere saw in the sky and what happens with our conviousness after we die usually end up very low on the list. Things of this world being much more important. Like enjoying whatever it is you like: water, snow, trees, mountains, etc., helping yourself and the deserving others to enjoy whatever you want to enjoy, and so on. Granted you already speak English, Spanish, Russian, French, German, and Arabic, it still is worth to understand Japanese, Indian, maybe Thai, before spending much time on the otherworldly things, I think. These are just a very few things that are necessary tools to understand a bit more of this world than just the piece of land you happen to stand on. Then there are many more things, and of course the enjoyment itself. Need to be very careful about which are distractions, because time is really limited here.

This is probably a satire, because true NPCs are not capable to describe it in such a reasoned and consistent manner. But what he pretends to be is exactly what my ex-friends are. Since covid scare event - exactly that. And they do think about themselves exactly that what this cloun is telling, just they could not say all that in one piece without help.

Before covid for a long time they were just slightly lasy, undecisive, slightly confused, generally somewhat backward. That stage lasted for a long time, but they were not like that in the beginning. They turned into such when they started taking most women seriously, specifically women with at least a bit of western feminist indoctrination. In our culture these form about 99.9999999999999999999% nowadays, thus - most 😄.

This backward stage was still not too bad while they did not carry any responsibility for any children, but once they had children, the stage of NPCness worsened significantly, and with covid they just turned into full featured NPCs.

Maybe feminist women were just a coincidence, but it does look like a cause to me. And it is not just about sexual relationship or being feminist herself. E.g. my parents are very old and still a couple, and yet they are NPCs, because they started taking feminist women on tv and everywhere around seriously. When they used to despise them, they were normal. At times too conservative, but still normal.

It is like once your brain is tricked into accepting feminism for anything positive, it gets into the foundation of thinking, and distorts all the thoughts completely. "Hacked", as Harrari puts it.

If bitcoin spot ETF at say Fidelity has $1M worth deposits from its customers, does it have to have $1M worth BTC at any given moment? And how can investors audit it?
