The opposite of globalist.

What’s going green first?

I’d take it. That’s essentially my retirement level!

El Salvador bending the knee was not on my bingo card.

I bought 2 nostr:nprofile1qqsfy229w70e8lgtxavlz9t78k06yrel6fxyhreteafqet8kfxhhwmg2c6av2 jades because the sale was nice and I wanted to try it out.

The small size is great.

Otherwise, it's a piece of shit.

Bluetooth doesn't work, green software on android and Linux both just don't recognize the device.

Sparrow works fine!

The QR login works.

Anyway...

If blockstream was strictly Bitcoin and lightning it would probably be a much better product.

I wanted to give my second one to a client but I'd rather recommend ledger and that's pretty bad.

I'll get back to you later. An I Can say for now is that ice spent 8 hours with this device and it's a piece of shit.

Tried once, could not for the life of me get a viable QR read. Still gathering dust.

Meanwhile I’m postponing a rebuild of my Pi node because I’m concerned about a few sats I have stuck on local Lightning channels.

Current mood is mid 90s UK electronica. Those were good times. Good times are coming.

Coincidentally, I can’t log into my trading platforms this morning. All down with service errors! Busy day.

How am I supposed to get anything productive done today?

Yep, I appreciate it, especially after a long dry summer and *especially* after we have our planting done for next season!

~150mm of rain up here in BC past 24hrs; fall is here.

Heavy rain - or “atmospheric river” as now known in Orwellian climate-newspeak.

The Milk Carton Kids are this generation’s Simon and Garfunkel. An absolute treat live.

Conglomerate of opinion from the smarter brains I follow on various networks would indicate 3-4x BTC and 5-7x Miners through Apr-Dec 2025. I aim to be conservative and front run by a fair margin en-route. Options exits are earlier.

I’ve done well with MSTR in my registered accounts this year - still holding 75% from $90 (split adjusted) and expect to hold through next spring, at least. Miners are more for the play accounts with options etc. I only hold CLSK presently (stock plus options for next July, though I’d expect to be out of the latter by ~Jan if we get a solid ramp through year end).

As yet, I cannot exist in a wholly Bitcoin economy. So, as attractive as those statements are, I continue to build wealth across a diverse range of assets.

It’s all a little too perfect. Bitcoin set to rip. Socialists set for a rout. The woke edifice crumbling while Elon heads for Mars. Spidey senses tingling. Could we be in the foothills of Dave Hunter’s market melt-up? Sure. But, took some profits today (fiat trading accounts), 33% cash.

$URA back over $30. Nuclear getting some swagger back as most of the world is finally getting with the program.
