most people underestimate just how committed bitcoiners are to bitcoin.

volatility doesn't matter.

price doesn't matter.

regulations don't matter.

we hold, we buy, we wait, we win.

Estonia: The Russian Federation is ready to use military force to protect its "shadow fleet"

"Russia behaved extremely aggressively, sending a fighter to cover the tanker, which led to the violation of Estonian airspace," said the Foreign Minister of the Republic of Estonia Margus Tsakhkna, noting that "the situation is really serious".

-> Estonia attacked a Russian ship in international waters and is surprised that Russia defends itself. That is literally stupid.

Estonia says, “we will steal your ships and you should do nothing and watch.”

Russia says, “we will attack you”

In case you wonder why they cry like this, it’s because NATO protection does not work in international waters and they could be really shot up by Russian jets in defense.

They can’t do anything about it, they just remembered that they’re a tiny state with 7000 or so military personnel.

Node runners, what kind of hardware do you run your node on?

You control the keys, but they control the infrastructure.

> how can I trust it?

I don't know, how can you trust anything?

Most of these services actually don't want anything to do with custody, since it is a legal burden. But other than that, it is hard to verify if it is actually only you who has access to the keys.

I think if you are very concerned with it, you should run your own infra. It's how bitcoin is intended to be used anyways

what do you mean by that?

why do you want to run a wallet on a cloud?

do you mean a lightning node? voltage is a service that offers self custodial nodes as a service

Do you guys use any of the AI like chatGPT? If yes what if your thoughts?

Is it safe to use I mean not spying on you? What is your recommendation?

You have a few major plot holes. You aren't leveraged on strike loans, quite the opposite, they are requiring 50% collateral. While a 50% flash event is possible, it is incredibly unlikely to happen.

Even if it hits 45% down, there is no liquidation happening at all.

You are free to pay your loan back at any time, regardless of the Bitcoin price.

An eastern bloc country looking at the current state of the EU, would make a lot of sense for them to consider aligning more with Russia moving forward

Why would Russia ever do that?

Poland is a part of NATO which is the only shield they need (look up article 5 if you want to know how an attack on any NATO country would be handled). The EU is irrelevant in that regard
