Yes!

Help legitimize the parallel economy: whenever you're in a store about to check out, be very friendly and ask if they accept Bitcoin!

2500 sat bounty for the first person to give me the following (It's not a big amount because it's not a big ask - I know there are lots of plebs out there with this data at their fingertips and this should be a fairly simple ask):

1. A realistic prediction based on good modeling for the USD price of #bitcoin in 4 years from now

2. Same as 1 but 5 years from now

3. The % increase of the peak price in each halving period compared to the peak of the previous halving period

4. Same as 3 but the bottom prices

5. The average % change of all top and bottom prices across the periods (e.g. the avg increase in top price is x% every 4 yrs, and the avg increase in the bottom proces is x% every 4 yrs)

I expect that it will go down before the 2028 halving, but I'm looking to show how much I can realistically offset some USD leverage with a potential 4-5 year payoff, by investing an equal amount in BTC (apart from my regular corn stash).

Let me know if anything is unclear.

Thanks my pleb bretheren

Buttcoiners like to call BTC a Ponzi scheme because early adopters were rewarded for the risk they took.

But then they have to do mental gymnastics to explain why other assets aren't Ponzi schemes. Usually they fall back to the argument that they are "productive assets."

You could probably trigger them well by declaring that real estate is a Ponzi scheme perpetuated by Baby Boomers.

Exactly. Hard part is shipping it 👍

You have better things to worry about in Australia, friend. For example, if you can help build critical parts for sailboats, you can help save lives and mitigate the need for warfare in Pacific island countries and maybe southeast Asia when fuel prices disrupt pacific food shipping in engine-powered freight liners.

“Am I seeding all the stuff in this chat?”

“I don’t know”

“Well you made the app. Am I storing this crap on my device?”

“I don’t know”

P2P technology loves to be like “we’re gonna use your device storage, ok? But we don’t know how much. That’s up to you, sort of.”

I used to have a friend in Montreal. In winter, they can use a network of tunnels under their city to go shopping, to work etc. Underground construction and living is a mature industry on Earth. Mars will require new techniques for new materials (in situ resource utilisation), but it is one of the easier challenges.

Fine!

I outlined the cheapest mitigation elsewhere in this thread - a propellant depot or other human activity at L1.

The Martian atmosphere that our friend doesn't believe in takes care of most radiation already. A meter of regolith over habitations does the rest, for humans.

The radiation levels are already tolerable for crop plants, and we can grow them in 0.1 Bar and millibars of O2.

Now the absence of a global magnetic field's effect on human health is quite unknown. It may be a nothingburger, or we may need to set up magnets in habitats, but we don't have the required data.

No. The "atmosphere" on Mars is like 100 times thinner than on earth, and couldn't be harvested from the surface of the planet. So, now you'd some machine that is able to harvest enough co2 from the thin atmosphere to generate enough oxygen for a group of humans to breathe indefinitely. It's not a realistic solution.

I thought people on Nostr were reasonable. In fact the most stupid and vile comments are over here.

Their job is to try to convince you that Bitcoin is a bubble and will collapse entirely. They could end up being right - but only if people believe them.

Their ONLY move is shifting public perception. It's a strong move, especially if they control communication and information.

...But they don't anymore

It was ok when the Left was encoded in the platform.

Financial engineering had got to be one of the lowest forms for building wealth. It’s also such a uniquely a fiat pursuit.

Deflation is a problem for people who take out loans priced in bitcoin.

You can say what ever the hell you want, but doesn’t mean that other people or bots might say what they want too. Free speech isn’t speech without consequences.
