I believe MMT started with good intentions. That said if your plan for say a railway system resulted in crashes every 5 to 10 years you’d reassess if it was working (hopefully).
Also use keyword mentioned in a job posting and try and make a connection with any recruiters that work for the company.
Optimize for snappy points that can be skim read in 10 seconds.
I get most of my signal from the ridiculous news articles that are clearly paid for manipulation on TradingView.
I think true innovation in Bitcoin still lives at the protocol level. Protocol enhancements should obsolete most service based businesses.

Time locking sats with at time of withdrawal fee setting. Seems like the ultimate self custody tool?
Everyone knows we’re going above 112k quit trying to convince us otherwise
When you sign a transaction you provide two bits of evidence. The signature of the hash of the transaction you are signing that is mixed with a random number, and a random point on the elliptical curve that was computed with the random number. With the random point plus the public key the verifier can validate you must have the private key to the public key and that signature was made with the same private key because they can produce the same random point with those two data points ?
In school when you did algebra you were given various values for a or b or x and y and if you were given enough real life values for those things you could figure out all the values of the other letters in the equation.
When you sign a Bitcoin transaction you need to use a random number to prevent people eventually having enough values for the a/b/x/y and figure out your private key if you do multiple transactions with it.
Deterministic nonces (nonce = random number) are based off the hash of the transaction you’re signing so will only ever be used once. This prevents signers messing up the random number that protects your private key.
This is what I think I learned this weekend. Now I think I know why NVK keeps mentioning them in Bitcoin Review.
The top is in when I can sell my S19 for 2x the purchase price - nowhere near!
Bro spend more than ONE BILLION for two Pizzas. Absolute legend. Happy #Bitcoin Pizza day y‘all! 🍕🧡

Interesting fact I heard on a pod the other day was that Satoshi expressed some displeasure at his new GPU mining experiment because he was claiming so many rewards so he decided to get rid of a bunch of coins by spending a chunk to redistribute them - including the the pizza purchases. Legend!
I feel like their days are numbered with the ETFs and tradfi brokers as active participants. The only way to compete is with transparency and reliability and they are not scoring highly there.
Assuming the worst this tactic only works for retail. But then again the narrative is that there is no retail interest. So they just have terrible tech???
Things I don’t believe in:
Santa
Tooth fairies
Exchange balences
