If Bitcoin made you rich, you don’t owe that money to anyone. But consider using your time to pay it forward to the humanity that values your coins.

Cool!

In the cybertruck, there is no such thing as idle. You shift into drive and let off the brake and nothing happens. It’s not until you hit the gas that you move.

Also, the brake pedal is largely not used. There is no coasting. Pedal is engaged when you want to move at constant or increasing speed. If go pedal is not pressed, the vehicle creates electricity from movement of the vehicle which rapidly slows the vehicle down.

There is an argument to be made that Bitcoin makes nuclear war more likely.

How you ask?

Well, if you’re part of the saprophytic class, but you’re also smart, you can see the consequences Bitcoin will have for all elite saprophytes. As such, you’re more willing to burn it all to the ground rather than lose your privilege of the money printer.

Politicians have never failed to live up to their promises ever in the history of politics.

Next you’ll want me to believe they are liars too…

It’s a very different kind of vehicle. Takes a a lot of rewiring of the brain to drive it well.

I like my new fiber connection. Just replaced my 1G pfsense firewall with a beefier intel 8505 10G router and installed opnsense. Took a bit to configure it…and I still don’t have fail over to backup ISP working, but it’s fast enough for me!

Ok. The cybertruck is nice to drive. First new car of my life and I kinda like it.

So apparently I own a cybertruck now. Haven’t seen it yet but wifey is driving it home now.

Note: if you’re gonna waste money, waste dollars first. I made the mistake in 2017 of selling bitcoin to buy my wife’s very middle of the road minivan…this was folly. I should have taken a loan…

Note2: taking a loan for a depreciating asset to avoid selling or to keep adding to your bitcoin stack is effectively taking a leveraged position in Bitcoin. This should be done cautiously. I’ll need bitcoin to hit $75,777 within 6 years to make this loan break even. Otherwise the loan merely added to the cost of the car.

I like Saylor’s view that bitcoin insight is limited to those with a need to know. I got into bitcoin very early, not because I got bitcoin at the price I deserved, but because I had a “need” to know.

I instantly became a bitcoiner after reading the white paper because I wanted there to be a system where people could safely store value so that someday someone could avoid what happened to me as a kid in the pre-bitcoin world. What felt like a crushing blow then caused me to plant the seed of what is my wealth today.

Don’t forget: it’s not just #Gox, Uncle Sam has a lot of bitcoin to unload too. Actually, I’m not sure they have to sell, but historically they’ve always sold all. #Headwinds to bitcoin price haven’t changed.

Exactly. Would increase tensions between these nations and probably cause various thefts and a race to devalue currencies…a race that would exclude the dollar.

Using the dollar as a weapon against Russia isn’t necessarily stupid. As Russia moves away from the dollar, will they upgrade to bitcoin or downgrade to the second best fiat?

This won’t necessarily come back to bite the US.
