I don't care who you are, it is in your self interest to be pro-bitcoin. This is quite nearly a universal fact of life.
That sounds legit. Is the 9 a reference to Plan9 by chance?
Now THAT'S financial engineering!!
I suggest using put options rather than a naked short, in case they add bitcoin and become a worthwhile company. The puts become worthless but you still have the stock and any other long positions.
Learning more about opcodes and the various proposed covenant solutions. How the fuck does anyone serious about this topic think that recursive covenants are not dangerous?
Doesn't "enable enough new things" sounds like a good argument for it!
omg I just thought my note was someone else's reply. I'm tired jeez don't mind me
Those guys are fine, I like them. Anyone who's against that kind of thing isn't a real anarchist, "ancap" or not. There are dipshits in every movement who are inconsistent or toxic, usually both. Some communities are completely overrun with it. The reddit ancaps are not representative of the whole population of ancaps, and the specifically inconsistent ancaps are even less so.
I am not as familiar with ancoms outside of social media, but the same principle holds. The vast majority of supposed anarcho-communists I've talked to, including ones in person, were closed minded fools or open minded people being told by closed minded fools in yheor community not to talk to outsiders.
I don't think you understand the landscape that well. As an ancap I thought ancoms would be on my side, since my whole thing is just anarchy, just voluntary everything. They're not open to even talking. Most of them are extremely closedminded, some just misled. Those closed minded ones create the divide. Try reaching out to one about this. You'll see.
We're all retarded. For some, it just shows more easily 🤣
Saw this earlier today. Awesome. Saylor is the patron saint of adoption.
My unemployment. I'm creating my own work, but it's taking a while to accumulate the capital to make sure this succeeds.
These localized monopolies would of course be limited by the competition bitcoin forces into being, so state mining and financing operations will still be able to coerce and inflate, but within tighter limits, bearing a more immediate and direct cost. Rather than the whole world upholding a coercive state enterprise like the United States, it would be only the statist nationals of the region in question upholding the system, since Bitcoin will be the ever present settlement layer for alternatives.
That's my thoughts anyway. Now I really want to read this book!
This big takeaway was my assessment as well. I've thought for a little while now:
Publicly listed bitcoin mining corporations that do not hold Bitcoin will underperform and die out soon. Then the ones that don't also delve into bitcoin finance or do something with their bitcoin holdings to amplify returns or shareholder value. Then those will face difficult competition in the broad market as no one has a monopoly on the production of Bitcoin or the kind of financing they will do, barring a localized monopoly in the form of government central banks that are backed by Bitcoin (a likely future for many regions). Mining has no other possible future but to become broadly distributed and decentralized.
Michael Bolton?! Hell yeah bring him on!! 🤣
Pretty much yeah, from a UX point of view. Every action I take works perfectly, if I can get to the action. It's very cumbersome to get to do what I'm trying to do and to even understand what everything means when first introduced to the alby ecosystem, and not only because it is in a transitional state.
