Here’s a 1 Year chart of WTI Crude priced in Bitcoin. (Longer-term charts are ridiculously over-weighted, but arguably don’t reflect the entry of Investment Houses and Corporations into Bitcoin, so let’s focus on just the past year). This is LITERALLY the only chart that matters: The world’s most important material resource priced in the world’s most important monetary resource. EVERYTHING else is noise. THIS is signal. Countries not stacking Bitcoin are not going to make it.

I’m coining a new term: Bitcoin Boomers. Because the OG Bitcoin Boomers are dumping their easy-earned gains on the head’s of subsequent generations and forcing them to swim upstream just to stay afloat.

It was glorious. Nobody but Nobody could get away with how you trolled a major CEO. Yet in Bitcoin world, you helped introduce him to the playground, and let him know the rules…and he got that. In that way, I believe you played a very pivotal role to reveal Saylor as a true Bitcoiner. Appreciated you. nostr:note1lpr0hkzu05evm0ea55jdhzf74ky9g7n49s0a48yvfsx2nax4ld0qdvh7h5

I think its important to remind ourselves that for virtually everyone in the Fiat system it makes complete sense that you obey the orders of someone that you work for, and at the end of a “pay-period” you get credits to give to other people who obey the orders of someone THEY work for. Yes, Bitcoin is Freedom Technology…but it won’t be adopted quickly, because few are able to understand. It will take decades to break the collective unconsciousness. Prepare accordingly.

Gold can be allowed to break up 400% because no one, no individual, no Nation State can challenge Power if their gold holdings quadruple. Bitcoin cannot be allowed to continue to multi-x. The Nouveau riche have always had to be kept in check. This understanding goes back a looong way.

Well said! Nostr is perhaps happily doomed to be the place where people can just be. Fwiw the very wealthy realized centuries ago that “Gentlemen’s Clubs” would rule “Social Media” nine ways to Sunday. Be Small but Mighty and choose your friends wisely. nostr:note1gfvp27ccy6a0q8uv9j08aw4x3lc68y350mauj72wq6ff9erwzwqs93c0vw

A foot is your foot. An inch is your thumb. Every real housewife knows a cup, pint, quart, teaspoon, tablespoon…and they built the greatest country the world has ever known. Not with Math, but with Measurements.

Look at this 2-year Weekly chart of Volume (bottom) v Price Action. Forget what Asset this is. This is an Asset that is Dislocating. Dislocating assets break. Always. With unanticipated results. But we don’t know WHAT will break. The stresses within have ripple-effects without. And those stresses are intertwined through SO many things when viewing the free-est global-market asset the human race has ever known, however small but scrappy. Yes, Bitcoin is tiny, so far as harbingers go. But Gold is not, and Gold is likely the tsunami that has been sucking out the water from the beach right now, if you view the Volume chart as the place where the earth meets the ocean of money. Bitcoin’s time is to shine is not yet. Likely another one to two years. So DCA accordingly and don’t swing for fences.

The very recent weakness in Bitcoin is a side-effect of the breakout in precious metals. Remember that in Bitcoin, God-Candles are basically just baseball cap branding. OG’s in Bitcoin have largely already dumped after 10 to 14 years of hodling. But in precious metals circles people have waited their whole lives for a 10x “melt-up”. Which is about where Gold and Silver are at right now. Think 30 years or more. So expect Old Guys with dreams of Cabo to absolutely eclipse what we think has been OG Bitcoiner selling after 10 years of hodling. “Retail” in Gold/Silver has been hodling longer than most Bitcoiners have been alive. And they are going to find that selling is very, very difficult at the prices we’re approaching. The spot markets at trading co’s has got to be interesting now, with buying v selling reaching a disconnect. Watching Gold & Silver run is like watching Susan Lucci finally win an Emmy award. t’s well-deserved, and everyone over 50 is applauding. But it’s little more than an honorarium at this point.

Starting to see a bit of talk about how Bitcoin is no longer a “Retail” asset because the Robinhood Retail crowd has become the Blackrock ETF Retail crowd. So fwiw, I’ll repeat: “UNLESS AND UNTIL….Overnight and Overweekend markets kick fully into gear and break the Western-centric hold on Bitcoin… Until we see THAT, Bitcoin is NASDAQ. Don’t leverage or expect anything more than 10%. Mark these words: Until the Non-Western “Flyover” markets clearly wrest control from Western “Wall St” markets, Bitcoin is going to trade like a trad-fi “FAANG” style investment. So accumulate accordingly.” nostr:note196jxv0c69ps8zltzelzqfjf860xrvwgm2ak6d6099qha5vmarkxsuy3l75

All the propagandized “division” - in America and elsewhere - all division in the world, boils down to: “My sources of information are better than your sources of information.” This has always been. And the first step in confronting this monstrous maelstrom of insanity… …is to recognize both sources of information are Fiat.

Shower thought today: The last legit conspiracy theory I can think of that has definitively been Debunked is that Playboy was primarily about the articles & interviews.

We all understand that Bitcoin is now an Institutional asset…right? That Pleb culture birthed in Bitcoin is completely and totally irrelevant anymore. That Podcasts we loved for years, twitterX’s we followed…none of that is anything more than a fun way to spend a weeknight? I’m sincerely encouraging you to let all that go. Because Bitcoin isn’t even remotely influenced by Pleb buying anymore. Your influencers are not helpful. And I can’t suggest anywhere to go for any signal of any kind about Bitcoin. Because Fiat influencers are the Dumb Money. No person, whatsoever, has any clue where Bitcoin is going. None. We’re adrift. We’re over the event horizon. No one, even multi-100 BTC OG’s, have a clue what’s happening right now. The only Smart Money - is Dollar Cost Averaging. Bitcoin is truly in Unknown “Here There Be Dragons” territory. You are not the idiot. You are the hope-filled sailor. And DCA is the way.

For the record: The whole point of Wealth - THE WHOLE POINT - is to progressively separate yourself from all the other human beings who make you uncomfortable. Even Bitcoin OG’s will do the same. It’s the whole scorpion on the frog parable. Bill Gate’s was “new money” once. Stay humble is not just a brand(TM).

Vietnam has a population of just a hair over 100million people. Headlines of late claim 86million accounts may be frozen/confiscated because the populace is refusing the final steps toward overly invasive KYC leading to Social Credit/CBDC implementation. There are certainly overlapping business/personal identities in the 86million number, but if true it represents vastly more than half the population of adults. I don’t understand what cultural issues might bear on this story, and I’ve learned that trying to do 10-minute research to present an “expert” opinion on social media is not the way I want to live my life right now. But no matter how I size this up…if the story is even remotely valid on face, how could Vietnam exist as a country a year from now? So this is overwhelmingly likely a social experiment, pushed on the Government of Vietnam from outside, that will be walked-back, used as a banking wargame if not precedent, and will be forgotten until it reappears next year in a new form. But I can’t help wanting to see how things play out if none of the sociopaths involved in this blinks.

I’ve been exploring Ai video creation for a few weeks now, trying to probe its limits both bad and good, creatively speaking, to see where we’re at in the revolution. And while it’s early yet for me, what is glaringly obvious - across all legit platforms - is that the possibilities are seemingly incredible. Until you place a Vagina into the scene. Then AI loses its LLM-mind and goes full-on Monty Python. So. Meet the new Boss. Same as the old Boss.

Can anyone recommend the best AI Video generator? I’m looking to experiment creatively, esp Realistic video quality. I don’t want any AI censoring or second-guessing my prompts if they’re “sensitive”, not cuz I’m a perv, but because I want to fully experiment without being coerced back into a framework. Also, I’d appreciate an AI-congregator like Pollo.ai, which I’ve been playing with. Just wondering if there is something better to offer? Appreciate all responses, just starting a conversation to find my touchstone into AI video creativity. (Zaps will follow. And here’s a pic to get you to stop and read this.)

You begin by graphing price movements, and volume of course. What else is there? Only changes in those two things, that occur over time. Right? So you pretend there’s more. You create charts, graphs. And it make sense, you’ve dedicated your life to following. Never winning.

A non-profit is something rich people establish so their unemployable children will have a job. There are no non-profits for broken bones. Or cavities. Or anything else that doesn’t have a very emotional pull for middle-class Americans. But you can bet that someone, somewhere has filed a 401(c)3 for depressed kittens.
