You'll be old when you become a gout maxi. Enjoy your wood-aged spirits until then.
The reversal in ETF flows might indicate that retail buyers are selling the news on the halfining; however, I suspect capital is flowing out of US ETFs into Bitcoin for redemption into Hong Kong ETFs on Monday.
NGU or FGU, the protocol doesn't care.
#asknostr can runes transactions be included in a coinjoin? If these degens could subsidize the coinjoin transaction it would be a huge win for Bitcoin privacy and change the narrative on this spam.
Paypal up to some weird misinformed mining scheme. https://pyusd.mirror.xyz/P2fyue5RNhdOAV_IREgLPkj70vk-7zLAAw7Rk39s0iw 
Absolutely amazing that Bitcoin's anti-fragile technology can resist the deluded fuckery of the PayPal kabal. #runanode #fuckThiel
Is this some kind of taproot wizardry or has liquid protocol made a change?

I agree with your sentiment, but your physical analogy is wrong. If you take out the empty space, the universe compresses to a single point. We can't measure subelectron geometries because all our tech is electron-based. Imagine trying to detect electrons by smashing planets together. Now this leads to a lesson of its own:
Imagine all the things you do not know because your perspective denies you the possibility of understanding.
Now ask yourself: 'what shift in perspective did 🍊 undergo to reach the aforementioned physical understanding?'

My corporate ride is a Tesla Model 3 lease. Last night the FSD update pushed as a free beta. Holy shit. It is frightening to give the machine control but it actually works. Anyone else try putting their life into the hands of a half finished automated driving system?
I am in favor of supporting devs, but how much of a Damus purple goes to supporting its large, centralized relay? These signals are in opposition to eachother:
1. Support nostr decentralization ⚔️ 2. Fund nostr relay centralization
nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s and nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w have rant-funding down.
1. Build amazing🌟 products at great personal expense😰
2. Give them away for free💸
3. Rant 😭 about the hopeless loss of funds from 1 & 2
4. Receive highly zapped post
Business model needs to precede the business or your business is a charity. Save nostr. End free relays.
$MSTR rebranding as a "BITCOIN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY" and then developing a suit model for leveraged buys of Bitcoin is how I know Saylor is on the side of Saylor and nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx is on the side of bitcoiners.
A Harvard economist published 100+ pages of survey analysis to confirm what anyone outside of the fiat academic bubble already knows: people don't like it when the stored value of their time+energy is inflated into oblivion.
You can access the full report here for anyone interested: https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w32300/w32300.pdf
One quote from the Abstract really jumped out at me: "The predominant reason for people’s aversion to inflation is the widespread belief that it diminishes their buying power."
Well, yeah, no shit... But this isn't a "belief"... this is a fact.
Here's the thing: the average person understands the problem, because they feel the effects of the problem every single day...
They may not understand the root cause of the problem (creating money out of thin air)--instead blaming "greedy corporations" or "Joe Biden" or "Putin's Price Hike" or whatever the propaganda du jour happens to be--but they know inflation feels wrong. It feels like someone is stealing from them (which is true).
They know their purchasing power has decreased, because when they spend a dollar today it buys less than it did five years ago, and much less than it did 20 years ago.
It doesn't matter if fiat academics tell them "everything is fine! stop complaining! inflation is ackshually a good thing!"
People can feel that something is broken.
Most people still think there is a partisan/political solution to the problems they feel.
They think "if only OUR guy was in charge, things would be better" or "if only we taxed the greedy corporations and the rich more, then things would be better."
But political solutions will always be bandaids meant to superficially treat the symptoms of the disease so the Political Team proposing the "solution" can score short-term perceived wins ahead of the next election. "Look, we did something! Now stop complaining and vote for us because the other guy is literally the devil."
A few people already realize that the money itself is broken.
They understand that when the money breaks, society breaks with it.
Money created out of thin air disproportionally enriches those closest to the creation of the new money.
Money created out of thin air is used to fund Forever Wars we never agreed to enter.
Money created out of thin air is used to subsidize companies/industries that the free market does not value, distorting price signals.
Money created out of thin air bails out banks.
Money created out of thin air perpetuates never-ending boom and bust cycles.
Money created out of thin air reduces the purchasing power of the money in your pocket.
Money created out of thin air steals the value of your time and energy, of your life itself.
The people who realize the money is broken now save the value of their time and energy in Bitcoin; a money separate from the State with a fixed supply of 21M which cannot be arbitrarily inflated.
Bitcoiners know we need to cure the base layer disease, not just treat the symptoms while politicians kick a can full of worthless money down the road until it lands at the feet of our children.
Bitcoiners refuse to abdicate responsibility. Bitcoiners refuse to pass this disease on to our children. Fiat is the disease, and we know we must cure it.
It will not be easy, but it must be done.
We need to fix the money.
Study Bitcoin.
Nice one, Dan. The cure is spreading. Don't begrudge the political class. If it wasn't for their worsening of the disease, we wouldn't be able to present the cure in such stark relief.
I am using the 'sonar-medium-online' LLM from perplexity.ai, which follows trending news. They use the openai API, so the openai python package works. The Rabbit K1 device came with a 1 year perplexity subscription and the subscription gets 5$ a day in API credits.
Here is my 'role' instructions:
"You are an artificial intelligence news writer and you need to write thoughtful blog posts about requested topics. Your favorite books are the Bitcoin Standard and Broken Money. You are a student of the Austrian School of economics. You believe in sound money. You believe bitcoin is the best money. You relate macroeconomic news events from the day to the principles of sound money. You are skeptical of government intervention, the IMF, Carbon Credits, and the Bank of International Settlements. You are interested in energy trade moving away from the US dollar."
And here is my 'prompt':
"Write a blog post about the most impactful macroeconomic news stories today, {}. The post should contain at least 1000 words. The final 200 words should relate news events to the principles of Austrian economics, sound money, or bitcoin. The post should be written in plain text and emojies".format(today)
Kind of wondering what you do with it, if you don't simply eat it.
I hope it happens in the next ten years. I want to retire from fiat clown world and do something meaningful. But every clown-dollar I stack can be converted to bitcoin, so no pay cuts will be taken anytime soon.
