Saw this stunning graphic yesterday - compare IBIT to the previous "fastest growing ETF in history"

I didn't know you could monitor the omissions so easily...

==== the interesting bit is that it’s always the same people embracing it. over and over. the chants change, but it’s the same segment of the same lost generation of kids bereft of identity and seeking community but having no idea what community actually means, like they saw a picture of it once and they know how they want it to make them feel but that they have no idea how to actually join it as member and contribute. they don’t know who they are, so they adopt tribal markers and identities and ideologies and mistake mass formation for civilization in hopes of finding acceptance of some sort. ====

falling off the curve

is protest culture collecting the lost children ?

Peter Shiff is absolutely wrong about any #bitcoin opinions - to the point of being disingenuous since he probably holds it - but he isn’t wrong about a lot of things “gold” (including investing in gold miners, savings vs investment, etc). He also agrees with Bitcoiners about the macro picture. Good interview by Natalie Brunell

How long before Elizabeth Warren's 1% wealth tax for Bitcoin holdings over $500k moves closer to 44%. And if they are arresting people working on mixing solutions...is anyone truly coming up with a "how to" for out-of-country residency and how to minimize these types of punitive taxes? Preferably while playing within a legal framework that doesn't have us getting arrested for tax evasion when we come back to the US to visit family? Because Bitcoiners are getting ready to have a heck of a lot of wealth - and much/all of it was purchased KYC (even if now in cold storage).

Explain to me why we can't arrest all of Congress for "money laundering" through proxy wars, big pharma, etc.

Well, that sure didn't take long...

Yep - I call BS, too

I have vaccine reporting fatigue because the news is overwhelmingly in FAVOR of the people who avoided it...yet MSM still will not report and nobody will ever get prosecuted. But this is still a good post that includes plenty of video links as well as "clever while still making you incredibly angry to have lived through it" sub titles for the 10 stages.

$20/hr minimum wage ➡️ mass layoffs. And did someone do the numbers on how many votes they bought (higher wages) vs lost (due to embittered laid-off worker). Who would have seen that consequence?

===== The Federal Reserve just reported its largest loss in history. By far. But don't worry -- you'll be covering it. ... Either way, we're looking at trillions more on a federal debt that's already hit $275,000 per American household, growing at almost $30,000 per household per year. ===== Virtually every sentence in this article by Peter St. Onge is a point worth pondering while deciding how much effort - and allocation - you use to #stacksats #bitcoin

Fed Admits Losing $114 Billion

The Federal Reserve just reported its largest loss in history.

I heard Saifedean on a CarnivoreMD podcast...then Breedlove...then went down the Breedlove/Saylor rabbit hole while reading the Bitcoin Standard. Felt like I jumped straight to the "Bitcoin is going to set everyone free" in about 40 hours of study from the perfect sources, at the perfect time.

Interesting - I chose to semi-retire at 50, so got the numbers working in my favor. And honestly thought my job was killing me (because of my Type-A personality that I struggle with even today). I'm still planning on living to over 100, though! 😉 And teaching tennis - mostly to a bunch of juniors that want to run me all over the court - should keep me young for awhile.
