Guys, the last time Japan raised their interest rates (end July 2024) markets also took a nasty dump, this has nothing to do with Deepseek

Last time we had less than 100k transactions in the #bitcoin mempool was 10 months ago 😅

If our Reserve Bank Governor can compare a national Bitcoin Reserve to a Beef Reserve, then that's all you need to know really

Am I losing my mind, or would lowering the inflation target not require _raising_ interest rates? If you drop rates at the same time as the target, you don't achieve it because inflation spikes, since more loans (at higher values) become more likely, raising money supply and increasing overall exposure to defaults. If you want lower inflation, ie "harder money", it should be harder to aquire, which means _increasing_ interest rates. No? https://businesstech.co.za/news/property/808296/what-a-big-change-for-the-reserve-bank-could-mean-for-r10000-per-month-home-loans-in-south-africa/ #asknostr #SouthAfrica

Good visuals of the gains and losses experienced over time hodling Bitcoin. If you're buying Bitcoin this year, when it will be peaking, you can expect as much as a 75% drop in value within a year, and that would be considered normal. If you can survive 5 years without gains, at most, everything is upside after that.

HODL Cave - Unchained

Analyzing the spread of historical returns for investors who held bitcoin for a given duration over the course of its history.

The 21m cap of Bitcoin does not apply if people are buying wBTC or keeping BTC on exchanges. They might as well be IOU's. The fact that this fake Bitcoin will absorb real capital is concerning. People will get burnt, and this will affect the value of actual BTC. People will exchange fake BTC with each other, and not realise the bait and switch, and the true value of Bitcoin will not be realised.

Fathers, tell me your experience, if any, of this clarity you get after having your first born? How real was it for you, and what changed? #asknostr
