I feel like Bitcoin, and Monero are The Yin, and Yang. One is overtly optimistic, and the other one is overtly cynical. They balance each other out to create real battle tests for the crypto ecosystem at large.

Bitches be calling themselves "Global Liquidity", I'll let Citibank know Ms. Liquidity so they can collect the $20,000 you owe them 😂.

I know I probably won't survive The Great AI Displacement but I do know that I must plan accordingly. I'm saving, and Investing as much as possible like there's no tomorrow! Everyone else is screwed except those who do survive The Great AI Displacement.

I'm on track to outperforming most markets, and indexes. My main problem though is I don't think it's sustainable forever.

These gains are wild! If this keeps happening I might be able to retire early but I imagine that it won't. Fiat is going to cuck us all in due time. The only way to win the fiat game is to make fiat moves, and maximize fiat. Fiat is designed to keep the current peasants under, and have the fiat masters gain more power. No new wealth can be created as long as Fiat masters create regulatory burdens that make starting a business difficult.

Help us all if they ever build digital calipers that work from a camera 🤔. Humans will definitely lose their jobs to AI. Until then I'd like to thank Grok for reminding me about the tool that currently exists for that task/purpose.

Learning a lot more about phone repair. Learning how calipers work to measure screw sizes.

Does anyone know a good way to sort out screws that are 0.1mm different in sizes? Dealing with a lot of screws but the variety in sizes is annoying. Actually causing me a headache lowkey just trying to differenate them all. #AskNostr

The myth is that computers remember better than humans. This isn't necessarily true, harddrives begin to fail in about the same amount a human memory weakens. Just depends on the neurological strength vs. hard drive sector health.

Humans are electricity, computers are electricity.

Our bodies are Two optic fiber cameras attached to a Squishy Soft Drive with iron, and water cooling systems, biological energy, and waste processing 🤔. Basically a computer but with more variation.

I have Retirement Fiat, Goldbacks, Bitcoin, Monero, and Zcash. I have Savings Fiat, Goldbacks, Bitcoin, Monero, and Zcash. I have Spending Fiat, Goldbacks, Bitcoin, Monero, and Zcash. I Earn, Save, Invest, Buy, & Spend different forms of money. If I want to pump one, or the other, I do. I'm a Freedom Maxi, not a Fiat Maxi designed as a "Bitcoiner". I will never HODL Bitcoin for Fiat Gains!

If I want to pump my Fiat Bags, I use a savings account, the stock market, and other fiat mechanisms. If I want to pump my Freedom Bags, I use Bitcoin, Goldbacks, Monero, and Zcash.

Michael Saylor is taking all the praise that in my opinion should belong to Satoshi Nakomoto, and the others in the ecosystem that make Bitcoin great. NGUs ruin Bitcoin, fiat maxis. Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash Systems enjoyers improve Bitcoin, freedom maxis.

Bitcoin, and Monero are Medium of Exchange, they are not stocks, Bonds, gold, derivatives, line of credit, or other assets that serve different purposes in the economy. I suppose some of these tools could be built on top of, or in parallel with them, just like fiat has cash, credit/debit systems, etc. but it's more like interoperability focused of settling The United States Dollar rather than the core function, or capability of the dollar itself. Even with a stablecoin, most of these functionalities will probably be implemented separately too rather than as an inherent feature of the coin itself. Bitcoin, and monero don't have BTC Pay Server built into it, if it did then great but it doesn't (yet). Bitcoin will only be used to settle the transactions, it won't be the transaction. The transaction is a complex thing that requires data, Ethereum is the most feasible Data system there is, it's possible all this stuff could be built on Ethereum but I also think realistically they will be parallel software that works in conjunction with Ethereum rather than powered by Ethereum directly. Data coin when 🤔? The more plug, and play we make the economy the better but the realization is every payment system will have friction to some degree since protocols will vary, you can't pay visa/Mastercard using Discover but there are credit systems that accept all three but Visa works on Visa, Mastercard on Mastercard, Discover on Discover, there's no atomic swap in fiat. Who knows, as we're seeing the system is beginning to accept Bitcoin as a settlement token but it probably won't be the finalized plug, and play coin of the economy. The plug and play token of the economy will probably be a stablecoin, and everything else will be built around that stablecoin to operate in conjunction with that rather than in conjunction with other coins, other coins will have to appease the stablecoins first then get their spot on the bus.

I believe in a future where Bitcoin can compete against Monero, and Zcash.

I do not think Bitcoin, or Monero will absorb Global Liquidity because they're not designed to, & I think it's unfeasible. I see that more likely something like Ethereum, Stablecoins, or XRP more likely will since they will have the institutional backing, rails, supply available, and throughput necessary for global banking. As we've seen Swift, and BRICs are rebuilding the global monetary system on different cryptocurrency systems. Monero will obviously continue to fund gray markets, black markets, under the table, etc. deals. But question is The Problem for Bitcoin is where does it go? Does it continue to be a glorified memecoin where prices pumps are based around greater fool theory, and speculation/gambling, does Core improve its OP_RETURN capabilities to become like Ethereum, or does it get neutered to focus on Cash, or does it add privacy to compete against Zcash, and Monero? Who knows?
