From Russ Harris' 'The Confidence Gap' pg. 92, on the helpfulness of self-esteem vs. self-acceptance.

Bank account still not unfrozen ⏳ looks like they can't even follow through on having a security rep call out and I'll have to reach one first.

I think if you log in across different clients that have both read and write privileges (login by private key) each client may meddle with your relays a little bit, especially if you often shift between. Not an expert, but this is my take based on user experience.

Commandment 10 (Exodus 20:17) Thou shalt not envy πŸ‘Œ

"You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's."

I'm in a bad place rn

It's Canada

They could trace the trail from the exchange if they wanted to without whirlpool, and you are on the hook for proving you still have that coin to IRA/CRA otherwise you will have to pay capital gains tax. In Canada that's 20% off the profit from buying price

If you want a dedicated machine for it check out this guide to Umbrel self-hosted server. If you go this way you can run a lightning node too. I think you can also just download Bitcoin core on an old laptop too if you wish but I never looked into that as much.

AFAIK Whirlpool helps to lose trace of the coins through obfuscating the transaction trail. It doesn't change the reported amount of Bitcoin bought from a regulated exchange, but it at least doesn't make it easy to find out what wallet those coins eventually ended up in.

So many.. it's the word of life! I'll share one, but I'm not showing partiality. We need the whole counsel of God.

Romans 8:28-30 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.
