5 yr Bitcoin vs Silver chart.

It's so over?

Yeah probably should go there. Longer drive from the airport tho

Thank you. Anywhere else in El Salvador you'd recommend?

I'm just looking for a good beach trip. Is it sick without the Bitcoin element?

Is it awesome for reasons other than Bitcoin?

Is El Zonte worth going to?

Similar to what nostr:nprofile1qqsfdjrhvhvspvtf7h7a30qeh7tmmrrdzcllg94gn4zuhd72cjxfgvcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnrdakjuct49ur0dzzk and I were just talking about

Patience is being tested

And things are taking far longer than expected

Our resolve is being properly ironed out

Being early doesn’t mean you’re wrong

Being too early is just the middle phase

Talking about Quantum feels so much more valuable than talking about filters.

We're back on track 🫡

The longer I’ve been in Bitcoin, the more the Stock-to-FOMO model feels like the right mental framework.

We’re in the middle, the most boring stage of Bitcoin price action. I keep thinking we’re close to the other side, but the middle might be longer than we expect.

Those who say Bitcoin price action will never look like the early days forget what their denominator is. Fiat only goes towards zero.

Until then, Bitcoiners who missed the early rise are left to patiently stack sats, slowly losing our minds on our way to Suddenly.

Men without LinkedIn built this.

I LEARNED SOMETHING NEW TODAY.

Might turn off my brain for the rest of the day unless you can tell me how it was used

Bear Market influensors always look HOT in their "Before" pictures.

Eggs can Make Wine Great Again

Seriously. Egg whites are used in red wine as a natural clarifying agent to soften tannins, reduce astringency, and improve mouthfeel.

You pour the egg whites in, stir, and wait.🧵

A protein called albumin binds to sediment, settles out, and leaves a clearer, smoother, egg-free wine.

How do you know if a wine was clarified this way? You won’t, unless you meet the winemaker and ask.

Ingredient labels are not required, and it would probably kill sales if a winemaker went around telling everyone he uses eggs.

On the flip side, you also can’t tell if a wine didn’t use this process. A wine labeled vegan won’t have been clarified with eggs, but many self-respecting winemakers, like me, can’t bring themselves to label their wines ‘VEGAN’ even if they are.

Because of the implication.

Vibes tonight are nooby

This is what being an adult looks like to me.

Most wines taste the same.

I've commonly opened bottles and thought "I've had this wine before" even if its from a producer I've never heard of.

Most wine is made as a commodity. It is made to be an alcoholic beverage and there's nothing wrong if your main goal is to get drunk.

Wine can be far more than that. Winemaking sits between art and science, but when focusing on the bottom line, the art is usually the first thing removed.

Price isn't everything, but as you start going up, the commodity wine begins to disappear.

Anyone with a winemaking degree from UC Davis can make technically correct wine, but it takes an artist to make interesting wine.

Drink whatever tastes good, but if you have never understood why people get fall down the wine rabbithole it's probably because you've mostly been exposed to commodity wine

Two bottle and a rejected bottle box, still to be collected.

Yooo what? Very few of those bottles and boxes out there
