ECB chief Lagarde says she "is confident" that Bitcoin will not end up in the EU central bank reserves.

Okay will see how fast it’ll be “not🤡”done

You are buying bitcoin.

I’m selling the fiat.

We’re not the same.

El Salvador's Legislative Assembly

today reformed the Bitcoin Law approved in 2021.

The reform removes all mentions of Bitcoin as "currency."

Article 4, which allowed tax payments in Bitcoin, was repealed.

Did the International Monetary Fund get its way?

Bitcoin has completely dislocated from its ~70-day global M2 lag.

With all the chaos and nonsense going on in the world right now, I wanted to share something that I believe is critical as it relates to what is happening on #bitcoin (the first global free market that can’t be cheated) versus a system of corruption (trying to stop that system) Either 1) through willful intent or 2) lack of knowledge.

(*the majority of people fall into the lack of knowledge group)

According to game theory and playoff matrices: even when there are very high rewards and low punishment (they wouldn’t get caught) approximately 10% of people won’t cheat - no matter what!They place a higher internal value on integrity that overrides external rewards. I’ve seen this number as low as 2.5% and as high as 20%.

Why is that important:

Although everyone wants to see themselves as one of the honest, the math says that between 80 - 97.5% of people will cheat depending on the rewards. Now enter money - the ultimate pot of gold with high rewards and low punishment for cheating because people don’t understand it. Most people will cheat - a mirror of the world we see and have seen in Bitcoin since its inception. Need inflation, bad for environment, drug money, doesn’t scale, crypto, meme coins - the list will go on and on because if people can “get rich at someone else’s expense - most will. Those are simply the numbers and always have been.

In fact, in prior periods of history, the honest were at a massive disadvantage because and would often be killed by the cheaters. Because the integrity was so rare, society would often celebrate these people after their deaths as lessons of what we wanted our higher selves to look like.

#bitcoin has changed the equation. Giving those with integrity the power. Why: because 2.5 - 20% of people that won’t cheat is a massive number - especially if many of those people are decentralized and can’t be “found”. Those are the people who eventually run nodes, contribute their time and energy to keeping #bitcoin decentralized and secure, watch for attack vectors, build value on top of this protocol, call out the cheaters, teach and advocate to help others see it. Those people simply can’t be bought, and more are joining every day.

That decentralized and secure protocol bounded by energy is repricing everyone and everything from the other system and it will continue to do so as that system tries to grapple with: the cheaters no longer make the rules.

It will be chaotic, many more will try to cheat (don’t be afraid to slay your heroes) but in the end…..Satoshi unlocked a way to put the best of us into a protocol that was best for all of us.

What a time to be alive.

Btw it looks like that 2,5-20% of honest us have zero ego or near zero at least. This inspires me a lot

Am I understanding this right and it only supports NWC, hence only few options are Alby (paid), Coinos and Cashu?

Great article. Even central bankers are eventually speculating attackers.

“The more mainstream Bitcoin becomes, the more compelling the speculative attack will be. Eventually it will become necessary, and not long after that it will simply cease to be possible, as nobody will trade Bitcoin for any amount of fiat, or even risk its loss in financial calculation. While we are clearly incredibly far along from 2014, we are nowhere near this final state. The slow-motion collapse of fiat continues, and the avenues for directing fiat shorts to Bitcoin longs widen. The speculative attack lives on. Season Two begins”

I've been binge-watching everything I can find by nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe on YouTube for the past few days. It's a mind-blowing paradigm shift. Such a remarkably thoughtful visionary. Highly recommend.

В мире падает количество счетов, удерживаюших доллар США как основную валюту, сообщает статья в Business Insider

Eurizon SLJ Asset Management подсчитали, что в 2003 году таких счетов с долларом США в мире было 66% от всей совокупности. В 2021 году их доля составляла 55%, а в прошлом году сократилась до 47% и продолжает падать.

Такое снижение на 8% за один год является исключительным, оно в 10 раз превышает среднегодовые темпы сокращения доли доллара США на рынке в предыдущие годы, говорят авторы подсчета.

В частности, падение количества счетов, удерживающих доллар США, ускорилось с начала военных действий на территории Украины и введения санкций против Москвы.

Однако, аналитики из Fitch считают, что текущая тенденция не является сдвигом парадигмы, поскольку "не существует жизнеспособной альтернативы доллару США для международных расчетов".
