Montana's bitcoin bill the latest to die...
Cynthia Lummis' own Wyoming killing their state's bitcoin bill was probably a sign that these were all doomed, including her federal Bitcoin Strategic Reserve (which had basically no chance to begin with).
Fingers crossed maybe a Texas or Florida may squeak through their bills.
lol, he definitely had his fingers crossed taking an "oath to the constitution", his oath is to his king
hopefully we don't run into any situations over these 4 years where that distinction becomes clear
give up. the universe has given you a sign to follow odell and dr jeff and hundreds of others to nostr only
the beautiful part, i would be happier if you won the bet than if I did.
if i have to pay you because we crossed 250k at any point before Dec 31, 2025 I would be even happier than if i 'won' the bet ;)
wanna bet 100k sats that we don't cross $250k?
That is incorrect. It is because China redefined m1 supply.
i think joe carlasare gave an explanation of this on X about why your chart is misleading. i suggest you read it, understand it, and then post more context here so your followers aren't misled
we shouldn't be surprised. i mean, trump put his retarded son "in charge" of his company as well. i'm sure there is an adult there to supervise and make the actual decisions, but erik's name is on the letterhead
I wonder if, outside of our little ecochamber, if this is true. I don't see any meaningful % of the population caring about either decentralization or loving freedom.
It seems like we are more and more OK with handing over our power and rights to people who are temporarily aligned with our beliefs that will inevitably disappoint as power corrupts all.
The mag 7 are stronger than ever and have centralized an unprecedented enormous amount of data, wealth, and power.
Billions of humans walk around with a closed source iPhone or Android spy device in their pocket (even when open source mobile OS alternatives like nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpq235tem4hfn34edqh8hxfja9amty73998f0eagnuu4zm423s9e8ks3f750r exist). Billions use Windows and Mac spyware computers. Hundreds of millions more use Alexas, iWatches, smartTVs, and other such bullshit for minor 'conveniences' despite the fact that they give up so much personal data to these already infinitely powerful corporations.
It is wonderful to preach the good word and try to onboard more people to nostr, bitcoin, and other open source alternatives but lets not be delusional and think there is any meaningful adoption of these technologies... yet.
Its good to have dreams so I feel bad being pessimistic. But reality sometimes bitch slaps us in the face.
We are a bankrupt country. The IRS isn't going anywhere. No meaningful increase in tariffs has happened and DJT is addicted to seeing green on CNBC so no meaningful tariffs will be imposed (meaningful meaning something that amounts to even 10% of tax receipts).
tires are shitcoins
100k sats says this never happens
i have not considered this possibility...
not a movie... but have you heard of this book called The Mandibles?
