All I know is, it'll crash 70% in the next bear market.

That's not true. The conversation was one of retaining solvency. "Sell if it's over 20k" doesn't mean they were trying to keep the price below 20k. It means they were trying to get as much cash as they could, likely above a liquidation level.

Life hack: Watch / read news a few weeks or months later

Everyone should be encouraged to write a diary / draw / do something creative. Unprocessed emotions are the root cause of perpetuatingunconsciousnesss, which leads to violence.

Sure. The scaling function however is unique. What beats it? Furthermore, the religion itself is not the issue. Power projection capabilities are. Religion is a cover for people who wish to do harm. The books are all rather interesting and do hold great truths.

Without religion, tribes were small and brutal. With religion, tribes can be arbitrarily large. I can travel far and know I will find brotherhood and safety and trust with strangers. Religion is meta, it transcends empires. With scale, comes conflict at scale. If you want religion to end, you must solve the scaling issue of trust.

I don't think he means what you think he means. In full context of that chart, amd text he could mean the state fucked you and you didn't rise up. He's gloating.

All I hear is: I'm going to murder your civilians if you murder mine. There is no justice between nations. All you have is an empty promise from your leaders that in return for your slavery, if you are murdered by a man from another slave system, he'll murder some slaves of the other guy.

Wow no need for the zap but thank you kindly.

Yeah, "they" are making a play for global dominance. They will lose. Even with space lasers to fry wrong-thinkers. Even with microchips in people's brains. Ultimately, free thought cannot be stopped. Subjective need will always exist. Enlightened souls will walk the earth. As long as they do, we cannot lose.

I'm highly confident one of the safest places to be in the coming decades will be the UK when it comes to freedom. 800 years of saying FU to authority. We'll pull through. Maybe our grandkids will get back 0.01% of the BTC they steal from us at gunpoint, but we'll get there.

& Lord Protector.

Nah

Having set up a business and banked in Japan, by "system" they probably mean someone lost the rubber stamp to approve payments.

Bitcoin won't change people's behaviour. Indeed, it is designed specifically for human behaviour. Binance is a symptom of the bootstrapping process. Every great infrastructure boom has been riddled with corruption and scams

I'm pretty slow to the punchline. I think I finally realised just how much of a state puppet Elon Musk is.

There is no greater, more vicious, vindictive evil than the victim - nothing will quench the blood lust.

Charge $ 10,000 per hour to let people know what your time is really worth. $50 means no calls. 10k says fuck you, I'm worth it.

Or - "I miss Parman. I love that guy, I'd love to hear his voice. I'm sure he feels the same. It's been too long. I have 5 min, I'll see if he's free. If not he can decline the call and call me back later if he wants. It's as good as sending a text message seeing if he's free to talk anyway, why add extra steps to making a connection?"

The spying probably got better too. Consider #grapheneos
