Banks will make it harder to onramp into bitcoin. Practice methods of buying bitcoin without relying on a bank (gift cards, ATMs, etc). It will be easier to pivot if you accumulate this knowledge before banks close the door on buying bitcoin.
IMHO a 10% premium on KYC free bitcoin is a steal.
A reminder these instructions are the best (and most detailed) for setting up your Coldcard with Sparrow. Bonus points for those who run their own node and connect Sparrow to your node.

Just be ready to take a hit on your taxes if you do an early withdrawal from a RRSP.
But KYC free the way forward.
People who continue to support that ponzi deserve to lose their money
Fans of the largest shitcoin by market cap are rejoicing that can withdraw their staked assets. If a network doesn't allow you to move your funds, it is just as bad as any fiat bank.
They are a bunch of cucks
Just a reminder that the 3iQ bitcoin ETF ($QBTC) allows for the redemption of units into bitcoin.

The only legitimate money printer is an ASIC mining bitcoin
Anyone know what is El Salvador's average buy in for bitcoin? Are they still buying up 1 bitcoin a day?
MSM like the NYT are using a tired old argument to smear bitcoin miners. They are all hypocrites unless they are willing to ditch their devices powered by electricity coming from the grid. Phones, computers, EVs and more all use the same electricity that powers those very same miners.
One argument that they could bring up is those managing power plants may wish to sell electricity to the highest bidder. Bitcoin miners have the potential to buy electricity at a higher rate than consumers. This in turn would mean there is less electricity available for consumers, as miners will continually demand more electricity.
The price of bitcoin moving up is nice but the real excitement is the building upon the network to make bitcoin more accessible and improving the user experience.
The only things that would survive a wide scale nuclear war are cockroaches and Bitmain S9s. Nothing else can compete with the durability of either one.
What should be the new base unit after the USD? The valuation of bitcoin is still flucating wildly so something more stable (and universal) is needed in the interim - perhaps energy?
Need to wait a few days before I can do it. The overnight temp will be below freezing tonight
Mexico joining BRICS is not happening anytime soon. Whoever is reporting it is trolling everyone.
