when you buy the dip & it just keeps dipping

I was reflecting on how few major corporations I actually trust, so I tried to come up with a list.

So here’s a very short list of Corporations i kinda trust (sort of)

Costco

Trader Joe’s

In n out

Trust in this case meaning I trust them to source quality product, treat the customer with respect and deliver a good product and experience.

What are some examples you could add to the list?

My take on last night’s GOP debate:

Vivek says a lot of the right things, but still comes off as phony. And for good reason, he’s a big pharma shill.

DeSantis has the best track record, but lacks the charisma needed to win.

Trump has charisma, but still insists that the medical apartheid and shutting down of the economy during COVID was a big success.

Nikki Haley and Mike Pence are both bought and paid for by the military industrial complex.

Other candidates in the GOP primary aren’t worth mentioning, as they don’t have a realistic shot.

RFK Jr is still the best candidate overall, and DeSantis is still the best option for the GOP ticket.

The nice thing is that, regardless of who wins, #Bitcoin doesn’t care.

The real fun is that drivechains dont actually scale Bitcoin, and worse, add more wasted tx while adding miner risk

We asked Saifedean to describe Drivechains to a Winemaker.

DID NON DISAPPOINT🤣

still can’t believe stuff like ChatGPT and Midjourney exist

blazing fast innovation taking place, you snooze, you lose

Trust the process && be irrationally optimistic

Been looking forward to this one for some time! #bookstr 📚 nostr:note19rp596t0xrdpdpzcu4ekuhnlmy63gafkx7gveuysw4frwyx8qzkqzuklnu

no one is deluding themselves that custodial LN wallets are a viable long term solution, but they are undeniably important in supporting the protocol iterate quickly and gain awarenesd.

mtgox, bitfinex, ftx were all parts in the growth of bitcoin while better solutions like multisig and hardware wallets matured and perfected

LN is growing to be a surprisingly robust and reliable part of the bitcoin stack and it'll find its perfect fit in the puzzle, adding its strengths and being supplemented for its weaknesses through other tradeoffs

don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good

don't fall for concern fud

On Ukraine and other fiat wars. His numbers, not mine

Hanging out with bitcoiners who have figured out wtf is going on in this world is literally the best.

I get so much satisfaction out of finding other people IRL who are as "crazy" as I am (or at least almost as crazy 😂).

remember when we thought we’d never see sub 50k again?
