Crypto.com is shutting down its US business and someone on the bird app is claiming it’s a Binance shell company. Is this true?

Random question. Does anyone remember the Bitcoin meme where it's an advertisement in the style of a premium brand and it talks about how you don't own your Bitcoin, you're simply keeping it for the next generation? Can't find it

Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s true in this wholly corrupt system nostr:note1x3vc4fp6vscmfng2u809qlchryemxeaxc8ch5dzj8t7tuud5lfus9z7nx9

The Russian banking system has allegedly (stress: allegedly) been hacked. #Bitcoin never gets hacked

I'd like to zap too tbh. Otherwise, where's the USP. I can go to Twitter and comment

Tried 5 minutes ago and doesn't look like it's gone through from Snort though it does in Damus

I'm zapping people who comment on my notes with one-tap zaps and I return a day later and the zaps aren't there. Annoying, as I like to acknowledge people who take the time to comment and it feels a bit rude (that's the Englishman in me).

I'd rather have the old way back but be safe in the knowledge my zaps are going through.

What is this old man shouting at bitcoin talking about?

This is a cool #Bitcoin data dashboard I've just come across

Are there any marketing firms that specialize in working with bitcoin companies only?

The revolution against Ceaușescu was a positive though. Many Romanians will attest.

Our times are more spiritually challenging to find meaning and purpose. Back then, you didn't really have time for that because you had to work and there was no aspiration. The family unit was tight too. That said, some people do have it difficult today and there's no denying that. On the whole, though, it's much easier materially.

True true. That said, I was listening to a podcast the other day about the Russian Revolution and apparently Lenin, who was exiled in Switzerland, never anticipated the Bolsheviks would take control of Russia in his lifetime and he even made speeches saying so.

Yet, things unwound fast. Hence his famous quote, “There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.”

I'm with you though, I wouldn't hold my breath. :)

Yeah, I often feel like that too. The sacrifices they went through. WW1 was the beginning of mass industrial warfare. Plus the industrial revolution which was in its heyday was great for productivity but terrible for the workers. How easy we have today in comparison. Sometimes I often feel people lose sight of that.
