I wonder if it would be possible to automatically and accurately download podcasts with a specific guest appearing on various shows

Haha let's say you have to hodl for 20 years then you can do what you like

What would you rather: 1 whole Bitcoin worth of MicroStrategy stock, or 0.1 Bitcoin in cold storage?

Be honest 👀

They made them train their replacements 🥲

Waymo (autonomous driving company) weekly rides in California

Even if I had 10 Bitcoin, I just couldn't imagine living freely in the UK

Yeah good point. It would track you everywhere you go. And be linked to your digital id and bank account so that if you do anything wrong, it can be turned off and seized from you

When autonomous cars are widespread, I wonder if only licensed operators, like Uber and other monopolies, will be able to operate them. Due to safety concerns of course. That way private individuals will be able to own nothing and be happy.

Is this the case in San Francisco, China or any other places with electric cars?

I think I mistakenly thought the satscards were tapsigners so that's why they are not working. Pretty silly of me but at least I know now.

I bought three tapsigners. One works completely fine. But the other two are not registering at all. It just says incorrect device detected, like in the screenshot. I have tried another phone and gone through various troubleshooting actions and still nothing. Has anyone else experienced this or know why this is happening? #asknostr

What lightning wallet is good to use for zaps on amethyst and a graphene os? The usual suspects seem to be incompatible #asknostr

Bitcoiners are in an arms race vs China and its AI to decide the future of humanity

Each of us should have our BTC stored in about ten different wallets with a range of storage solutions. You never know how someone might get it from you or what mistakes you are going to make. Best to cover all bases

Yeah but even a small amount of BTC could help you a lot. It's a scary situation for those who don't have any cos they're not going to be able to buy it. And so they're going to be very enslavable

Would you feel comfortable having your BTC secured by multi sig wallets with tapsigners? #asknostr

Easy to say these things on nostr. Not easy to run a BTC maxi country in real life

Chatgpt said the Bullpoint pen wasn't commercially available in Europe then. So she couldn't have used it. It also says she used fountain pen and pencil (a lie?) 🧐

No, you did not miss the bitcoin train.

We are just getting started.

Just because bitcoin went up a lot does not mean it cannot go up a lot more. On the contrary, the more it goes up, the more it demonstrates product-market fit, the more likely it is to go up.

Bitcoin is different from stocks, bonds, and commodities because it has a much, much larger addressable market. Let's compare:

Apple's total addressable market is 8 billion people who can own an iphone and laptop. A lot of them already do, and a lot of them are too poor, so there's just not much more room for growth. Maybe Apple can increase by 5x, or 10x, but it would need to introduce new products that are wildly popular to do so, which is very difficult. Ultimately, an Apple stock is a claim on cashflow, and it is priced based on expectations of Apple cashflow, and it is not easy to continue to increase cashflow once you're a trillion dollar company.

But bitcoin is money, and its total addressable market is all of the planet's cash balances, which currently include something in the range of $100 Trillion in physical government cash and checking and saving bank accounts, plus ~$120 Trillion in government bonds, ~$22 Trillion in gold, and arguably, a chunk of the world's real estate and stock markets, which people are holding to beat inflation, and not to take risk in search of return. All in all, bitcoin's Total Addressable Market is in the range of $200-300 Trillion, which is about 100 times larger than what it is now. All of these assets are trash compared to bitcoin, and there is no reason for anyone intelligent to hold a significant position in them. Everything held in these assets has lost ~90% of its value against bitcoin in the last 5 years, and will likely keep losing another 90% every few years. The only things maintaining significant demand for these assets at this point are their holders' old age, intelligence deficiency, and susceptibility to government propaganda. They can continue to hold these assets as they decline, making them poorer, or they can shift to bitcoin and start getting richer. Either way, and regardless of what they do, the world's wealth is going to end up in the hard money, and not in the obsolete moneys of the twentieth century.

Bitcoin has no cashflow to price it. Most nocoiners think this makes it a ponzi, but that is only because they have never experienced real money, and only have as a frame of reference the hot potato trash fiat money which everyone smart tries to exchange for hard assets as soon as they can. They are incapable of understanding people demanding to hold money for its own sake, for its ability to hold value, and not for cashflow. This is how gold became the money of the world without generating any cash flow, and this is why bitcoin, which is infinitely better money than gold, is going to continue to monetize and grow.

Nonetheless, bitcoin's demand is highly variable, and with leverage, it will likely continue to be significantly volatile for the foreseeable future, so always keep in mind that it could decline significantly, and manage your position accordingly.

Good to see you on nostr ser 🫡
