Is it easier for them to get their hands on your super when it’s in a managed fund where you have no access to it in anyway or self custody #bitcoin ?

Best feeling there is.

I console myself in the knowledge that regardless of what any politician says those compulsory super contribution’s would never end up in your wallet without super. That money would otherwise just go in the corporate pot.

The fact it ends up in self custody #bitcoin is a miracle they haven’t thought through.

Never had to do anything other than provide reports at audit time to show transaction and balances.

I haven’t had to provide wallet addresses or proof of keys.

100% self custody safely stored in the cup holder on the boat.

Has anyone else noticed what happens if you swipe left from the posts screen on Damus. Funny little Easter 🐣

I’m rapidly approaching the time of life when I feel I should be paying off a house, but having never owned one I’m contemplating that I may never, even post hyperbitcoinisation.

If ever you needed a reason to move your superannuation into a #SMSF and self custody #bitcoin…

"The Australian government will work with energy investors to launch the nation’s first sovereign green bond in mid-2024 in a bid to boost institutional investment in the transition to net zero.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers said the bond would allow big investors such as superannuation funds and banks to finance public projects aimed at getting Australia to net zero, as part of his push to use private dollars to fund national priorities.ā€

This is hilarious, Hugh is as mad as a cut snake but hugely entertaining, it’s a pretty fair observation that Cathie Wood is more mental just in a different way.

U.S. spend on taxis isn’t going from a generous $10bn a year to $10,000bn a year in the next 7 years.

It’s more likely the false narratives around EVs have collapsed by then.

Here goes the long one. 🐶🐾🫔

There seems to be a lot of division between plebs about recent changes to the TestFlight version of Damus, #onlyzaps . Although it is understandable that this change may cause some confusions, we keep forgetting that this community is still evolving, and experimentation is part of this process. We should never jump to conclusions or judge people (and dogs) too quickly. Do not forget that we all come from different countries and cultures, where language and actions are not interpreted in the same way as you may intend.

OnlyZaps mode does not and should not force people to part with their precious sats. In the end it is your personal choice how you want to engage or not with the note. If someone chose not to see or receive a like, it should be up to them with no ā€œsocial pressureā€ to revert and align with the masses. Same goes for zaps, nobody forces you to receive them (or give). If you are truly valuing freedom, then partake in this experiment without judging. I may like OnlyZaps mode today, but that doesn’t mean I’ll feel the same about it tomorrow.

The dreaded topic of V4V, how can we all gain the maximum without giving equal value back. I would say it is not possible or sustainable, but that is just my opinion. The whole notion of ā€œlikeā€, ā€œ+1ā€, ā€œshakaā€, heartā€, etc., is old and has no meaning. Even if there is an option to share full spectrum of your emotions, it will not translate to the other person the same way you intend. Same thing for colors, what are you going to do about colorblind people? Pictures, similar problem, what about the blind? Words are probably the best way to communicate, despite all the shortcomings. Zaps, maybe or maybe not, at least the language of numbers and money understood widely.

What I am basically trying to say is to give it a chance and do not reject or judge the trend before it starts. If we want to stick with the old and tried practices of social media, so be it. In this case, Twitter might not be so bad after all.

I’ll stick with OnlyZaps for now and will give it a full run for its sats. If it fails, that is fine, at least I tried.

I nuked my long term twitter account about 8 weeks ago, had it since 2008, had a decent no. of followers, some reasonable engagement, but I’d had enough and Nostr and getting off twitter made sense.

I’ve been convinced to get back on twitter to keep orange pilling, I can’t do more than 5 minutes without my blood pressure rising because of no-coiners and shit-coiners.

Even if Nostr is a bit of an eco chamber I vastly prefer it. I choose not to sit in a mental asylum in real life why would I do it online, I choose to sit with the smart interesting people who have fascinating things to say.

My tribe! My family! My friends! Fuck the fuckers!

People experience ui/ux all the time just using apps and websites so have personal opinions on what does and doesn’t work for them.

People don’t experience code first hand, typically.

The average wage of those workers prob isn’t great, regardless as is always the case the intent is what matters! And they were wilfully robbing their own employees! The individuals responsible for that deserve a slap!
