So with the current administration's views on immigration you would never have met your wife?

I am in the same situation. The wonderful woman I am with would not have been here for me to meet if the current government in my country had been in power 10 years ago.

Not pretty woke. Extremely woke.

Controlled opposition gets their voices heard too but just what’s approved opposition.

Brilliant.

Exactly what I would do to keep the herd controlled & happy. Herding dumb animals is hard work. Needs a strong/smart shepherd.

Tick Tock. Next Block. I live 100% in Bitcoin all the time. On a complete Bitcoin Standard and this Strategic Reserve doesn't bother me at all. in fact, ossification risk doesent bother me because i dont believe its ever going to be a frozen spec. I run many full nodes and contrimute my voice to the network. If anything, The Reserve will make my life easier because of increased purchases power. Lightning Network is amazing at payments so the base layer doesn't need to be. Stop with the scaleing FUD. Its old and boring. Go contribute to Bcash. CTV and OP_CAT are cool but if the network isnt ready for them then it wont go through. So rum some nodes and start marketing them to the bitcoin community instead of worrying about Bitcoin. Bitcoin is us. We are Bitcoin and we can take care of ourselves and our intrests. Bitcoin (we the people) are a threat to nation states no matter what they do. They might as well all get on the new standard and allow its incentives to bring us into alignment.

I don’t see any serious critique of his comments in the comments of this note.

I don’t think he’s wrong on many points.

- there will absolutely be people cashing out

- bitcoin price could absolutely tank if blackrock or any big party decided to sell off (very possible)

- 1 million bitcoins is a significant portion of the total that would have an impact on overall fiat value up or down depending on events that unfold

What I have issue with:

I doubt any tax dollars would actually be used to purchase this amount of bitcoin.

100b may sound like a lot but it’s still peanuts in the grand scheme of demonetization of other assets.

There would be no need for bailouts unless BlackRock and friends forked but the network decided to sell them off. In this case you might have a need for bailouts. nostr:note16f76suqdw4g6evv6ayvhn6dfddfrkvhagfvfneyz7wq8z86y9eusgwgwka
