check out gains on “altcoins” today, btc leading in percentage terms. what does it tell you? smart money is here in the early bull, and they know which horse is the fastest in R/R terms. btc will likely continue to gain dominance, until dumb money comes in at prior ath, then the large cap to small cap cycle will be used to squeeze more usd out of the uninformed

Somehow this "forever typo" badge is the forever notification on amethyst...the notification that won't go away...like an itch you can't scratch

Has duckduckgo been getting slower for anyone else?

At dinner with the older generation, everyone wants to show off how well-informed they are, repeating minutiae, inconsequential stories of the day.

But a fish does not know what is water,

A monkey can't see the forest for the trees.

Too many people have given Elon a pass. Don't give him a pass.

He's a marketer, not a founder or an engineer. He didn't found PayPal or Tesla; he bought into them early. He's good at selling narratives and equity valuation for perpetually unprofitable companies.

Everything for him is a narrative. His green revolution was a narrative to sell more cars and get more subsidies. His bitcoin purchase was to gain appeal among bitcoin/crypto people in a bull market. And he shilled doge like a dumbass. His SpaceX narrative is to get money from the government.

His rooftop solar thing was an outright scam; the technology isn't ready and went nowhere because of that. His full-self-driving-in-an-intermediate-term timeline was a scam, and is going nowhere because of that. He makes scams to draw people and capital in, because for him it's all about narratives and equity valuation.

And then he dug unproductive holes, suggested unproductive hyper-tubes, built meme flamethrowers, for what? It's a narrative, not a business. None of this is real productive shit to make peoples' lives better.

His latest "we need free speech" narrative was a scam too. He tapped into something real, which is what marketers do and why it kind of worked. Yes, we need free speech. Yes, Twitter had censorship issues. He saw that and jumped on it maliciously rather than productively.

But what did he replace it with? He replaced it with arbitrary journalist censorship about his private jet, arbitrary censorship of Substack, selective Twitter Files release, won't talk seriously about any of his China connections because Xi Jinping fucking owns him economically there like Jack Ma, has his balls firmly in his grasp, etc.

Elon's playing the narrative, the anti-woke meme of the day. He's a master meme-momentum-player. Don't fall for it.

Well said

Back in my day, interest rates were at 15% !
