If you’re using the world’s hardest form of money for your jpeg storage, you are officially an asshole.

Former classmate I haven’t talked to in 20 years randomly emailed me to offer his financial planning services. I’m good man, I save in bitcoin.

Regarding the government shutdown, republicans are saying the democrats want to fund healthcare for illegal immigrants which is straight fiction.

Bitcoin at $109K doesn’t worry me. Bitcoin at $99K wouldn’t worry me. Bitcoin at $59K wouldn’t worry me. I bought the top in 2021, rode it all the way down to $17K, where I bought more.

If you’re fudding dips to $109, you should: 1. stop trading in and out of bitcoin 2. extend your time horizon
