The fact that 40k put contracts were traded at 10:30 am before the tiff started? Idk.
Great article and thank you for what you do! It’s good to have a plan, and plans can change along the way!
If I was the owner of one of those shit coin companies, I’d sit on a bunch of cash knowing that this announcement was coming. Then I’d take that cash (taken from my coin buyers) and buy my own coin to artificially pump the price and bring in the FOMO.
Trump is just pumping those bags like he did for himself with his own shit coin. They paid him a lot of money.
Maybe the SBR will be separate from the crypto reserve after it’s all said and done. That would be a small victory.
I’m not a genius. But I’m smart enough to know not to talk shit about something that that has a $2T market cap.
Anyway….they’re using word salad to confuse people and make a stupid point.
My bank put me on fraud investigation after I reported a glitch to them where they were marking various purchases on my card as credits (i.e. refunds) instead of debits.
After initially denying the glitch they realised something was wrong — yet somehow blamed me - the customer who reported the issue to them.
They froze all my accounts including unrelated business accounts.
After several weeks of investigation, they realised it was an internal glitch… but by that point the fraud team had ruled my account be permanently closed.
The most infuriating thing was the disrespect I was shown throughout the whole process.
Denial of the issue, sending me to FAQs on how a credit card works, making me wait hours on the phone… then after realising the glitch, assuming I was some reckless kid trying to steal money.
I can’t wait until I’m completely off fiat, I’m sick of using banks. Hell, I’m considering a move to the USA just to use nostr:nprofile1qqsw4096vtjqyyjyfuzys8pqkxtpacdgtm7ljl2dftyfsjpfqqcp2fq20jrgx …
We closed a bank account and they owed us a credit so we had a negative balance. After a month, we noticed they were charging us interest on the negative balance and money they owed us. I thought I had seen it all.
Anyway, I didn't want to insult but just to be very direct because it's very sad to have gone from people like Antonopoulos to these speeches or to the books of Saifedean Scammous who rewrites economic history just to support his own, however shareable, thesis. You can't say that the powers that be have kicked you out of the academy when it's simply that you invent facts and theories.
Or people like @HODL who says “don’t invest in yourself invest in bitcoin”. How do you earn more bitcoin if you don’t invest in yourself and become more valuable?
Or nostr:nprofile1qqsxpfwtq34xpnqy9djsg7jjayq3rrst95r4xflje0nqlwjjwhfhrycjn09s7 and nostr:nprofile1qqsyw2lflynya6sj2net9a7d9ksvxxw6unlye4jf7ppya9prfh9vl9cwf5nyr who interview scammers like British hodl and stay are on a superficial and sensationalistic level.
Sorry to be brutal and I hope no one gets offended but we need to recover quality in this space. Bitcoin is not the same as 15 years ago. It has grown and improved. We are not the same as 15 years ago: we have gotten worse. Where are the Hals, Rosses and so on?
I can relate 100 percent. Sensationalism feels at an all time high. It hit me hard yesterday. I blame X.
In a bear market, we focus on all of the great qualities of Bitcoin and what it really is. In a bull market we focus more on just the price going up.
I learn by doing. And using Ledn taught me where things are headed. Big banks will offer the same thing in 2025, I believe. I also am leery of that. I always wanna use true Bitconer’s platforms over a big bank.
This is what I’ve heard. All these billions of dollars going into technology that will eventually be free.
