I just booked my first accommodation rental using @Airbtc and paid with #BTC over Lightning. I had an initial question about the property I wanted to book at and received very quick, helpful support from a team member at @Airbtc using the online support function. The entire process was very easy, smooth and I have the satisfaction of contributing to the #Bitcoin circular economy on the global stage. Now, for any naysayers out there who say “no, you don’t spend your Bitcoin!!!” I also just went and exchanged an equivalent amount of Canadian dollars into BTC and moved that BTC back to my wallet. Buy, spend, replace. Rinse and repeat. Please use and support @Airbtc and the thousands of other merchants and service providers around the world who accept Bitcoin. Find them at @BTC Map. Be a part of your local Bitcoin circular economy and others on the global stage.

It’s interesting to observe this triad (BTC / AUD / CAD). As the exchange rate of #BTC to the Australian dollar (AUD) peaks clearly above $100,000 AUD, the exchange rate of BTC to the Canadian dollar is hovering at $94,000 CAD. This spread on the exchange rate isn’t unusual, as the CAD has had about a 1-10 cent advantage of the AUD for most of the past two decades, with a few very short periods of parity or slight AUD advantage. It will be interesting to watch this over the months and years ahead though, with BTC exchange rate as a lens. Canada and Australia are both economies with highly financialized housing markets and many socio-economic similarities. As #Bitcoin adoption continues to increase over the coming months and years, and as BTC further displaces other asset classes (housing, gold, collectibles, bonds and equities) as stores of value, it will be interesting to see whether the BTC/AUD and BTC/CAD will remain comparatively range bound or whether we’ll see any divergences. This triad may provide interesting opportunities to gauge the relative impact of Canadian and Australian fiscal and monetary policy, as well as other public policy directions over the months and years ahead.

Ah, yes. This music is more appropriate for Trump. Not political commentary… just commentary on a lecherous, predatory, sociopathic individual. View quoted note →

The beautiful thing about #Bitcoin is that it no longer matters who Satoshi Nakamoto is or was. Bitcoin is now the world’s largest, decentralized, open-source computing network and financial system — one that cannot be controlled by any person, government or other third party. If we were to ultimately find out who Satoshi is/was it would be scarcely more material now than if we found out who was the first person to create fire or play chess. All of these are now open-source gifts to humanity, subject to the overwhelming consensus of a massive, decentralized user base. So, watch this HBO flick if you must, but then get on with the task of harnessing Bitcoin #BTC in service of building a better world.

Gen X revival (1988). Just as pertinent for a 2024 soundtrack.
