Signothermal Spectralwallet photography of Max Keiser’s “OG” Pre-History bags shows they’ve been massively depleted at the sub-$100k stratum. Osiris is the only limit now for Bitcoin.

The first tiny steps toward Oil priced in sats. Hyper-Bitcoinization has begun. “Emarat, a state-owned oil company in the UAE boasting a market value of nearly $14 billion, has begun accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as fuel payments. The cooperation with Crypto.com, announced on May 8, 2025, stands to benefit both the digital currency adoption in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and the energy sector. Ten Emarat service stations, which already have the Crypto.com payment infrastructure installed, will be the first to implement it. This attempts to make it possible for consumers to use supported digital assets to pay for gas and convenience shop purchases. In addition, this pilot program intends to spread throughout Emarat’s more than 155 service stations in the United Arab Emirates, contingent on regulatory permission and consumer feedback.” https://www.banklesstimes.com/articles/2025/05/08/14b-emarat-now-accepts-bitcoin-and-other-crypto-for-gas-payments/

Evidently China has sold a shitload (pun intended) of yuan, to the tune of something like $680billion worth. Which is being correlated with the huge upward move in Gold today. Which would explain the air-pocket under Bitcoin. Also, here’s a no-coiner kitten. Appreciate you.

Apple app store fees were just tariffs. You pay to have access to their markets. How do Democrats not see their own cognitive disconnect?

I would’ve appreciated the uber-cringe of this as an Andrew Lloyd Webber piece…but that would only prevent me from wanting to pay good money to see this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp8gOif-XzQ

And all governance is incentivized to perpetuate itself…not even out of self-incentives, but simply because for them, it is the way it’s always been done. nostr:note1nr7kdaxsmgtqrmdfdl0chfdmxfzq8vwcfsnxfr03a70lwzahwmrsrwxt78

DISCLAIMER: I wrote the following years ago in a newb-inspired heady fervor of Bitcoin. Came across it tonight and was going to delete it, but because we are Nostr, here it is, warts and all: “Bitcoiners often talk about Self Sovereignty, but we rarely acknowledge what that means at its core. Traditionally, only someone with enough wealth to be independent from the NEED for income - only that person could be said to be Self Sovereign. (Let’s eschew the voluntary “drop-outs” of general society for the sake of argument here). Self-Sovereignty has, throughout recorded history, been a state of living - and a resulting mind-frame - for people who’ve achieved financial independence beyond the need for a “job” or income. But far, far more important to focus on here is how that person is independent of the myriad influences of what I’ll simply call the Working Man’s Marketplace. The Working Man’s Marketplace is the life-long propaganda working people swim in whereby they are told their worth lies only in producing income, having a job, and affording better and better things. Yes, you know….so where am I going with this… To be Self Sovereign is to become free of this ubiquitous culture that underpins servitude. You get this, this is important, and there’s a lot that could be said about it, but my point here is this: Bitcoiners represent a tiny fulcrum of History where a sizable mass of “plebian” Humanity has achieved THE MINDSET of Self-Sovereignty, regardless of whether they possess the MEANS of it. The American Revolution is most certainly the last point in history that contemporary Bitcoin culture could be compared to…and I’m hard-pressed to think of any other one beyond that. Bitcoin is the New America. But more important, WE are the Revolutionary forces which will shape the World in its light. We know now that very, very few Continental Americans wanted a Revolution against the oppressive authority…yet those very few were confident and intransigent. They didn’t suffer fools gladly.”

Within the next 1-2 months we will know for certain if/that the cycles are broken. Not just diminished, or extended, but irrelevant. Either way, we will be happy, and free. OGs will sell, regardless. Incoming plebs will stack regardless. Podcasts will pimp cycle-theory regardless. Or monetize why broken cycles are Bullish. Everything about Bitcoin will change in the next couple months. All our models will be revised & confirmed, or discarded. We will exhale stale air into a refreshing new world.

The single word “theorist” was Edward Bernays’ inspired bullshit that completely undermined the legitimate Sciences.

I’m honestly not into price-action right now. And I’m not into fighting about core. I just want to take a few months off and be Me.

It’s genuinely heartening to have Bitcoin-non-Bitcoin inspirations coming in right now, imo. (Don’t judge by this one retweet.) nostr:note1jvwqx3rg89vukammcdnv3mse72keqr4j20y472zwugq8py5vxgdsh8jjgu

16 years of Bitcoin, and I’ve never cared or gotten any signal from any data on the blockchain. Whatarewe?

🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️ Oil continues to free-fall, breaking below 60ksats. WTI Crude at 59,743 sats per barrel on the morning. Jed Clampett could not be reached for comment. 🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️

I‘m not a lover of TA, but over 25 years I’ve come to respect a handful of the very skilled professional traders I’ve known. When Institutions entered Bitcoin in 2021, we were introduced to a long-time Institutional tactic for “fleecing Retail” called the Wyckoff Distribution (also called a 3-Drive Top formation). This theory held out, and explained from a TA perspective the 2021 ‘compressed top’ into the bear market. Institutional Traders saw an opportunity, entered Bitcoin en masse, fleeced the Retail, and left. Bitcoin experience it’s longest bear market yet. 2024 however saw a reverse-Wyckoff bottom formation that lasted 8 months - which we experienced as the Crab-Walk. This may have been a Wyckoff Accumulation, or bottom accumulation - spurred by the newly formed ETFs last January. It signaled Institutions managing and accumulating the massive and needed new ETF inflows which, when sated, were then unleashed - and caused Bitcoin to explode to new highs. We seem, imo, to be in the midst of another Wyckoff Accumulation / bottom. This would explain the breaking of the cycles right now. Institutional Traders may be managing and accumulating Bitcoin in anticipation of the coming Nation State adoption that is coming. IF this holds true, and IF it mirrors last year’s Wyckoff bottom accumulation, then Bitcoin will yet crab forward - and even touch a another low for the year very soon, shaking out the last of the weakest of the lettuce-hands. Until late-June / early July when it will explode much, much higher.

I’ve been running nodes for 3+ years, and it’s beginning to bother me that I’ve never found an app that makes me WANT to login to my node. Admittedly, I’ve stopped caring, so I may be out of touch. Can anyone suggest an app they use regularly? Is there any ‘killer app’ for active use (i.e. other than storing my files)?

🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️ The value of Oil is collapsing in real-money terms, hitting unseen before lows. WTI Crude trading at 63,544 sats per barrel for nations & institutions prescient enough to embrace Bitcoin. Nostrovia Satoshi! 🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️
