If a central bank adopted a Bitcoin backed Ecash system, wouldn’t it be a CBDC strictly speaking? #bitcoin #ecash

While flying, I’ve always wondered what these were. Anyone know? #asknostr

I encourage anyone who won money betting on the Ross not being freed yesterday tragedy donate the sats to a good cause. @OpenSats #freeross #grownostr

Containment levels on wildland fires are a shitcoins. They’re arbitrarily set by the Team managing the incident and are more political than anything else. #fire #grownostr

A great write up by @Sooly⚡️سولي 🇱🇧🇧🇪🇦🇪🇦🇴 , pay particular attention to the parts about fire insurance. The FAIR plan is a Socialized Fire insurance program (Obama care for Fire insurance) by the state of California. The cost of insurance is going to ballon from already nose bleed levels. The lack of a free market in the insurance industry has made local, targeted fire insurance solutions impossible so everyone is stuck with subpar generalized policies. (everyone has the same shitty coverage mostly regardless of risk) We’re left with a handful of large companies that are in bed with the State. A true fascist cartel. View quoted note →

The people on the ground know what needs to be done and how to get it done. We need local solutions and decisions on environmental issues. Not Blanket decisions pushed by national governments and international NGO’s. If extremist environmentalists want their voices to be heard on an issue they need to present superior arguments at the local level. Not just getting national level policies forced on everyone.

Hearing from a number of people who have similar anecdotes to my trending note. We have allowed environmental extremists to dictate our environmental policies with zero basis in reality. View quoted note →

This seems appropriate for the current situation. View quoted note →
