Any mandated bonds won’t involve bitcoin IMO
I think KYC is “out of the bag” and by bitcoin acting as a sound money, it renders flaccid many the anti-KYC crowd’s concerns.
Would it be awesome if exchanges didn’t have KYC as a requirement, sure. But they do. And those exchanges are the best way for people in Western economies to acquire real sats and self-custody them.
Short of becoming entirely authoritarian and totalitarian in the physical world, governments won’t really have recourse. And if bitcoin moons in price then it becomes prohibitively expensive for them to administer regulations because the market will be demanding bitcoin over dollars.
This is the practical response. The most-likely outcome is that it is impossible (due to costs) to enforce any KYC-related regulations.
NGU is incredibly important to make that cost as significant as possible.
Why did unchained stop offering bitcoin-backed loans to individuals?
They realized no one would buy bitcoin bonds (especially with El Salvador energy sources) instead of bitcoin.
Bitcoin is ruthless and relentless. If you’re not competitive, you won’t win.
Yet again, why it is important to further develop cheaper more accessible bitcoin lending products to allow bitcoiners to borrow against their stacks rather than sell.
Use the real estate playbook against them.

I am actively awaiting this bull run. Having the ability to not worry about the well-being of my family while designing and implementing the next phase of our lives feels incredibly important.
It probably isn’t as important as it feels in my mind and heart but I am anticipating these next few months with great awareness.

Ridicule the “energy transition” every chance you get. It’s just code for money laundering and tyranny.

The suits got to see the halving occur as predicted / designed.
$65k isn’t this important.
Send it. 📈🔥🚀
nostr:npub1excellx58e497gan6fcsdnseujkjm7ym5yp3m4rp0ud4j8ss39js2pn72a from the conversations you’ve had with nation states, was the halving occurring as “planned” (“anticipated”, “predicted” … whatever the right word) important for their adoption?
I imagine for most of the people in those rooms, it was their first exposure to a halving. Hearing about the halving and then watching the bitcoin protocol operate autonomously as designed via the halving milestone are probably two different experiences.
If I was running a government, corporation, institution then watching a halving occur as predicted would definitely carry some water. I’d be more willing to allocate to Bitcoin after then before.
