Yeah that was annoying. When they started fear mongering about a "Brazilian variant" I went to Brazil and had a lovely vacation, except I had to that both ways. The Brazilian nurse who took my swab to come back tried to stab me in the brain, she was vicious about it, and she didn't like me.
In my home area though it wasn't so bad. Restaurants didn't do that, in fact we were one of the only areas where there was no mask mandate for a while, then when they tried to do a mask mandate no one complied. Maybe 1 out of 20 people wore a mask. The rest of us just shared knowing glances and lived our lives, and no one enforced anything.
Really? I just got rid of the TV and ignored them and did whatever I wanted. Now everybody's like "you survived the biggest psyop in history" and I'm like "that shit was so easy".
I can see a world where people transact some in Monero but save in Bitcoin and primarily transact in Bitcoin. The only hope for Monero to gain in value vs Bitcoin is to come from the bottom up. The poorest people have to use it, which isn't going to happen because it's harder to use than Bitcoin, and Bitcoin is already quite a big leap for 95% of people.
You may have misunderstood Zelensky, jews generally, and their goals. This video would probably give that little rat a boner.
What you see: omg that's horrible so many dead
What some Jews, Zelensky included, see: omg we could cause even greater destruction than the Holodomor or WW2!
He WANTS this war. He wants maximum millions of dead goyim, especially across Europe and North America.
i have a better idea Shmuley - Jews must be extinct

Imagine a jew actually slowing down and being interested in learning why everybody hates them, instead of this constant dismissive psychopathic narcissism that characterizes their species.
But a bunch of NGOs, especially HAIS and those facilitating ethnic replacement, actually are terrorist organizations. Or even if you don't agree with those semantics, they're worse for America than any other organizations, including terrorists.
Bluesky is literally a delusion. It's "left" only by censoring people.
If money is a medium of exchange before a store of value, then wouldn't you want the money that's highly divisible, teleportable, uncensorable, and impossible to counterfeit?
Assuming we'll always have electricity and global communications, which I think is a safe assumption for our lifetimes, then it's a better store of value than gold, because gold is mined at 1.8% per year. That's why the fed claims to have an inflation target of 2% (though it's way beyond that, and in reality way beyond what they even claim).
So the amount of gold that exists doubles about every 40 years. The point of Bitcoin is that it doesn't do that. That's why I say it's a better store of value than gold.
But if you calculate the risk of mass EMP to be higher than I do, then you'd prefer gold. In that way, Bitcoin is a bet that we'll always have electricity and a way to communicate, with only brief and localized exceptions.
Of course it's about the store of value. That's all money is. How else would they use Monero? I'm not taking a smile and a wink as payment. And I can't teleport gold, and gold is a worse store of value anyway.
The first thing an African child sees when the shipping container doors open.
And that old man's name was Albert Einstein. Never forget.
Terrible test if you're just setting everyone up for failure. Our generation is not going to adopt Monero or any other altcoin over Bitcoin. And they shouldn't, because Bitcoin is a better store of value.
A better test might be creating privacy features for Bitcoin. Lightning is pretty good for that.
I fear man will engineer this powerful tool with ideological purpose, and presentism. And that it will be used for evil, and the worst kind of evil that claims to be good. And that it will become a tool of oppression.
I also don't think problems that threaten the universe's existence are real. We made those up too. This world and the universe around us were here long before we appeared, and will be here long after we're gone.
You know selling Bitcoin doesn't actually make you gay, right? We just told everybody that as a joke.
I saw a lighting node called "HAMnoder" the other day, and I wondered if he was running it over HAM.
Every time it hits a new all time high, that means nobody who bought previously and held their Bitcoin has lost. Everybody has won. And that just keeps happening over and over because it's a scarce asset. It's a savings technology. And the more people who save with it, the more they all win.
But that's just not true. There are people more and less valuable than me. To think you're equal to the highest, regardless of your own choices or ability, seems not only an abdication of responsibility, but the height of arrogance.
I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but Kalama won the election and the US gov is embracing communism now. Markets are crashing. American soldiers are being deployed to Ukraine and Israel.
