You know what all ways seems weird to me? That in Europe theirs always this talk of an immigration crisis… there’s been a huge rise in the popularity of right wing movements as a result of it… however nobody ever seems to talk about what’s causing immigration … mainly displaced people from the unstable Middle East and central Africa… its strange how few people make the connection?!
Why does this day and age really feel like - the universe of Starwars and the Imperials are a real thing??
I stepped away from it for a while!! Should dip my toes back in
What’s the latest thing in Bitcoin land? Twitter seems to be infatuated with sycophants… with few knowledge bombs dropping on my feed…
Messing around with LLM’s who else taken the dive?
Marty’s thoughts on the market always a good read.
Bitcoin is correlated to macro - along with everything else… kinda always has been if you look at liquidity and bitcoin number go up and down. Just not many BTC people look at it this way cos it’s an unfamiliar discipline.
Today I’ve learnt about running LLM’s locally - about time I learnt about some new tech…
Only way really. Governments don’t want people to have financial freedom - or to allow a casino unless they can make money from it…
Pretty much .. or just use a VPN to access the website and different KYC documentation. Say you had another passport you would kyc on the banned exchange under that… still be granted access even without a VPN… as the bans usually apply to countries resident…
Should be using this way more than Twitter!
Aye we must be idle. We got what we got because we’ve maintained vigilance, we’ve questioned proposals …
Thanks!!! I keep getting shadow banned on Instagram for posting up stuff about the genocide in Gaza.
I was following the debate on this… and it seems like fedimint is the middle ground until something else comes along that’s non custodial and scalable… another layer maybe on top of lightning ?!
He just needs to say Free Palestine and he got my vote.
Bitcoin has shaved 60 billion off its market cap recently with $1.8 billion has allocated into paper products across the 10 #Bitcoin ETFs.
Looks like investors who had money in spot Bitcoin and shitcoins are moving into the #ETF instead. I guess it wasn't new money coming into Bitcoin, just existing money wanting a better vehicle to speculate with, lol
God candle #shills are rekt and I think thats good enough for me!

Pretty much this. New money stopped flowing into Bitcoin in December after a pick up in flows from October, which was the first time since FTX. A lot of those outflows though are GBTC, as finally the locked up bitcoin could be sold, as well as probably miners cashing out at a great price - given next halving is on the way and they’ll need new hardware. I dont necessarily want an ETF. However it does help to sort of decentralise things a little if there are many products - the best thing for bitcoin would be currency status and that’s what people should really be fighting for.
Unfortunately bitcoin will lose… unless it’s Devs and the people who use it make sure that over time it isn’t corrupted. Everything can - as ultimately it is controlled by humans who are inherently greedy.
Last time I tried to post something, I posted it like 50 times. Wish this app would have told me it posted?!! They still working on releases for this thing (Damus) what’s the best one to use?
