All this noise of Wall Street, and Governments accumulating Bitcoin is a bother. Don’t know why so many pushed for that. Bitcoin should continue to grow and improve as the best money in the world at the grass roots level. No Hullabalu about it. Just genuine use by the everyday man. Growing at ground zero in the back countries of developing nations, and on the streets of small town shops that learn to use and take in Bitcoin as payment for their down home products and services. Forget about locking up gargantuan amounts of coins in ETF’s and Government Treasuries. That’s not where real money should be sitting, doing nothing. Bitcoin can grow quietly without a lot of fanfare and attention. The people that find it on their own, without being pushed into it for the promise of a quick buck are the true believers in its potential.

I don't understand this loyalty to just one thing.

If you sold your bitcoin earlier in the year, bought silver, and then the other day sold your silver and bought back bitcoin then now you've got much MORE BITCOIN than if you'd just held.

Same as if you had 100 bitcoin ten years ago, sold them all and bought ETH, then today, ten years later, sold your ETH and bought back bitcoin, you'd have MORE (lots, lots more).

Trading is the way.

Ideologically-driven bear-hugging of any one instrument is just silly.

China’s Eastern Theater Command announced tonight that it will conduct a snap military exercise in the Taiwan Strait and around Taiwan, dubbed “Justice Mission 2025.” The drill is set to begin later this evening and run through Tuesday, December 30. Units from the People’s Liberation Army, Navy, Air Force, and Rocket Force will take part. The exercise appears to rehearse a blockade of Taiwan from the north, south, and east, simulating the early stages of a potential future invasion.

Given that a significant portion of U.S. naval and military assets are currently positioned in the Caribbean, along with recent discussion about the Trump administration shifting focus away from Asia and Europe toward the Western Hemisphere, some observers argue that this could be a relatively opportune moment for China to apply pressure on Taiwan—even if Beijing is not yet fully prepared for a broader conflict involving Japan, South Korea, and the United States.

TRUTHBOMB!!! 💣💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Spent too much time with my increasingly normie friendly

I fell in the trap of trying to explain that the money is broken 😬

They still think that a new political party or a new leader or a new investment or whatever can fix the chronic problems the uk faces

And now I’m about to spend a week with my other half’s family.

This is why people book bitcoin events.

Wish me luck!

I’m not sure Nostr will ever work.

Social media preys on the main sins:

Pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth.

There’s certainly greed here, but it’s niche and nerdy. Not exactly viral stuff.

There’s little to no rage bait.

It’s almost as if people are paid to be as proactive as possible on X, and their life in default isn’t nearly as rage baity as they make it out to be.

But there’s also no reason to use this as the town square. It’s not particularly organized, it doesn’t have a community outside of BTC, it’s hard to access and difficult to understand.

I still have hope, just not sure when it sparks.

I would love to see this BUILT... I'm not that tech savvy on stuff like this but would love to see it happen..

If this could be brought into existence, I will guarantee it would be a game changer in Nostr ..

Thoughts on bukele?

Gold and silver ripping make important goods cost more (especially tech and industrial)

When Bitcoin rips….goods don’t cost more. It’s an excellent money/store of value. The “no intrinsic value” is exactly the point.

The Salvadorians I talk to in person say that Bukele is a tyrant and is bad.

What are your thoughts?

How is the downside teaching conviction?

Gold and silver ripping. Bitcoin now a stable coin. Thanks Saylor and all the Suitcoiners!!! The winning is so good. Thank you!

Violent upside draws the crowd.
