GM everyone. Food for thought:

The last episode on the ledger debacle. It should be clear by now that this company lost all trust. It should also be pretty obvious that they received half a billion from investors who wants to get something in return. Their actual business model is not generating enough revenues - its a one-off model. Subscriptions (recovery-service) is needed to drive customer lifetime value. Don't trust companies! Always verify! #opensource This is the way!

This is insane. Ledger a new Trojan horse if true...

This is fraud!

Wow! Ledger seems to hijacking their hardware wallets with a backdoor to seed phrases. Even if you don't not use their recovery service, the backdoor is still their - means you have to trust Ledger!

It's on CBDC's around the corner in the US:

Long-awaited Fed digital payment system to launch in July

FedNow creates "a leading-edge payments system that is resilient, adaptive, and accessible," said Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin.

How this all could play out? Create the problem - destroy banks. Deliver the solution - CBDCs. "Your deposits are only save with CBDCs operated by us (fed)" People will fall for that but I hope BTC can save as many as possible...

GM everyone! I was thinking about this formula a lot which describes when change happens: C = D x V x F > R C = change D = dissatisfaction V = vision F = first steps R = resistance If the the product of D, V, F is bigger than R -- change happens. How will people change with the current potential financial crisis? Will D big enough? Do they see BTC (V) as a beneficial solution? Interesting times!

USDC looks like CBDC. The recent black swan event could be used to "save" the peg by the FED or Wallstreet. USDC can act like a bank already: "In other words, they can kick out anyone from the system, rendering his funds useless. And they can stop entire USDC token from moving anything." https://ylv.io/circle-usdc-technical-overview/

I would not wonder if $USDC stable coin is meant to be a kind of CBDC injected like a tojan horse. Wallstreet (e.g. Black Rock) is invested in Circle (issuer)...
