You work for bankers.
Bitcoiners work for me.
We are not the same.
#Bitcoin is playing in big leagues now and the game is at a new level.
How I suspect it plays out: An attempt to capture as much as #Bitcoin as possible including regulation to βtryβ to slow self custody of #Bitcoin (Warren et all) and leverage games on paper #Bitcoin to reduce price. (ETFβs)
Which βcausesβ more Bitcoiners aware of the manipulation and how the game is being played to use lower prices to buy and self custody more #Bitcoin (reducing supply)
Which at some point creates a short squeeze of MEGA proportions (maybe along with halving - maybe later ) that liquidates a major financial player. (Similar to FTX)
Money has become a monopoly because of the games that have been able to be played with others assets due to the centralization and control of those assets.
But Wall Street has never seen an asset like this. It is not gold and too many #Bitcoiners know how the game is played, meaning if you donβt play by the rules, eventually you will be caught short. (And no one is coming to save you)
Or as nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx says:
Stay humble and stack sats.
ETF IS PAPER BITCOIN.
NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT IT BEING 1:1 BACKED. THEY WILL FIND A WAY TO EXPLOIT IT, BECAUSE IT'S NOT BITCOIN AND ANYTHING NOT BITCOIN IS PAPER.
THEY WILL PULL IN THE MAJOR INSTITUTIONAL DEMAND ONTO PAPER BITCOIN AND SUPPRESSING THE ACTUAL BITCOIN PRICE, WHILE THEY BUY OFF ACTUAL UTXOS ONTO THEIR OWN POCKETS AND KEEP SELLING NEWCOMERS PAPAER ETF CORN.
THIS WILL KEEP HAPPENING UNTIL SOMEONE BIG ACTUALLY GETS DENIED TO HAVE THEIR COINS AGAINST THEIR ETF HOLDINGS AND THAT WILL CAUSE THE BIGGEST SHORT SQUEEZE AND CAUSING MAJOR AWARENESS OF 'NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR COINS' AND TRIGGERING HYPERBITCOINISATION CYCLE.
SO YEAH I AGREE JEFF WITH EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND WILL AS ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR WORK.
SORRY FOR THE CAPS, BUT YOU MENTIONED nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx π
LOTS OF CHEAP SATS COMING OUR WAY BUT THIS WILL BE THE LAST OPPORTUNITY EVERYONE!
6 months after we though we solved this problem, the basement had flooded again after just a typical rain.
So much of my stuff is ruined. Boxes of electronics and Dover stuff I had to put up in the studio when it was done.
An entire box of bitcoin books, including my signed Fiat Standard from nostr:npub1gdu7w6l6w65qhrdeaf6eyywepwe7v7ezqtugsrxy7hl7ypjsvxksd76nak, same with my Bullish Case signed from Vijay, 7th Property from Yakes
The motherboard I fought with for months to get repaired, soaked completely through.
This is a fucking shit show. My whole show setup is down here. Donβt even know what to do honestly.
Fuck man this sucks, I hope you backed up some of the digital work.
Glad there were no keys lost in this flooding accident π
For what it's worth, I am sure nostr:npub1gdu7w6l6w65qhrdeaf6eyywepwe7v7ezqtugsrxy7hl7ypjsvxksd76nak and others would happily send a signed copy again.

Wale me up when FED ends..
NO MORE SUITS TO WORK FOR EVERYONE.
The thing that the price didn't move more than 10% on the announcement, retraction, announcement of retraction, announcement, pdf retraction, is a testament to how mature #Bitcoin is.
They tried their best to manipulate price on this announcement, yet no one was manipulated. Hodlers are resilient to manipulation and it's a testament that hodlers are in it for the long run.
If you think it's bad that the price didn't move, you don't get how no one is going to be able to pry the cold coins off hodlers no matter what happens.
It's going to be glorious.
Remember, people are still in mass psychosis.
