#btc number go up

if everybody's sitting around doing that it will slow down progress and that deflationary number will shrink

futures.market just opened. bam!

the early days

wish I'd been there

here's where you can read the original first #Bitcoin obituary

https://undergroundeconomist.com/category/cryptocurrency

Yoga pants were created by Lululemon, which was founded by Chip Wilson. The invention of yoga pants has saved lives, and provided joy to billions of men the world over.

February 17 is Chip Wilson day, celebrated globally.

As for the Nobel Prize, it is not awarded for fashion or apparel inventions, even if the invention prevents suicide. Therefore, the inventor of yoga pants, sadly, has not received a Nobel Prize for this contribution.

tragic.

is it going to squirt high or low?

more

the world is deflationary

everything should be getting cheaper

we're getting better at chips, bandwidth, food, materials, buildings, you name it

A story that illustrates why I will never orange pill anyone ever again.

2015- Attempt to orange pill friend multiple times. No dice. Totally uninterested.

2019- He asks me if now is a good time to get into bitcoin. “It’s always a good time”. I set him up with a HW wallet and tell him DCA and chill.

2019- Friend calls me a few months later, he wants to put the down payment money for his house into bitcoin, but he’s nervous. I say no worries I will backstop your investment. What’re friends for?! I want you to succeed. He now has a no risk investment. Financed by me.

2020: Friend is doing well. Has been stacking hard and has 2 coins. A great stack for his income.

2021: He starts watching cringey YouTube videos about shitcoin trading. Gets into a private telegram, trades his 2 bitcoin into 4 and then gets rug pulled and loses everything.

2021: He’s near suicidal, very dark times. He doesn’t tell me anything because he knows I warned him about trading and thinks I’ll be disappointed in him. Finally he tells me. I help him get a personal loan so he can take advantage of the remainder of the bull run. He sells at 55k and manages to break even. He’s not up but he’s got his house money back.

2023: We’re out drinking with some other friends from high school. He expresses some jealousy towards me in a semi awkward fashion. “Every time I see this dude (me) I think about bitcoin.”

2024: I meet up with him so the kids can play at the park. Vibe is off. Lots of insecurity and tension. They’re going on a trip to San Diego and I ask if they might go to the zoo while there. “I can’t afford that. That’s for rich people like you”. Odd interaction, but I shake it off.

2024: A few weeks later he gets drunk and hits on my wife via text messages. She shows me immediately and I confront him. He’s like “sorry bro I was drunk I didn’t mean it”. I tell him off and make clear this is the last time we will ever speak.

No good deed goes unpunished. I could not have been nicer to this dude and more helpful along the way and he is fully consumed by envy towards me.

Unfortunate.
