Shamelessly stolen from Wall Street Silver on Twitter. Banknotes littering the street in Venezuela. Don't think it can't happen to you too, anon.

Any blockchain sleuths out there? This chap had his account hacked. Nearly everyone in the comments is saying that he must have just been careless with his seed phrase, but looking at the destination address for the stolen BTC, something's up: https://www.reddit.com/r/ledgerwallet/comments/11ypwa8/why_is_my_ledger_empty/

“I don’t believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can’t take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can’t stop.” – F.A. Hayek 1984

"The preponderance of public evidence suggests that Silvergate and Signature didn’t commit suicide — they were executed." This is a must read by Nic Carter: https://www.piratewires.com/p/2023-banking-crisis

Folks: I'm unwinding my shitcoins and moving most of it to BTC. Anyone suggest a good route from wBTC -> BTC, ideally non-CEX? Going the other way, I typically went BTC -> renBTC -> wBTC via Curve; presumably this also works in reverse, but does anyone know a better route?

I like this. Made by Lina Seiche, for relai_app:

Lolz at the White House. Another desperate but clueless attempt to demonise bitcoin.

Compare these headlines. We imagine that, because they are rich, powerful and close to government, Central Banks know what they are doing. But the truth is that they do not. They are entirely making things up as they go along. h/t @JamesMelville on the bluebird app

President Xi and Putin met for over 5 hours yesterday. Putin was explicit about his aim to remove the dollar from international settlements. They then signed an official declaration of strategic cooperation. Meanwhile, CNN leads with 'Ted Lasso' actors being at the White House, and speculation about the "possible Trump indictment". US mainstream media is, at best, totally broken - and, at worst, complicit in the wilful misdirection of the public. The majority have no idea just how much their quality of life depends on dollar hegemony, and they're not going to find out from the mainstream media until it's way, way too late.

Orange-pilled another friend today. He was concerned by the imminent US banking collapse and the totally profligate money-printing of the Fed. Ended up agreeing that "maybe I should put a little bit of money into bitcoin, just in case".

Interesting read: the guy who pioneered Quantitative easing in Japan says it has been misused and will end in tears (as well as CBDCs):

Why central banks are too powerful and have created our inflation crisis – by the banking expert who pioneered quantitative easing

The collapse of a US bank is the latest crisis for central banks to deal with. But rather than being saviours of the global economy, what if they a...
