- I'm going to report you. - Why? - For engaging in an activity on a park bench. State security forces, armed robbery carried out by the Spanish government.

Just let the Fiat part run its course and keep looking for an alternative to the system, that's the only plan. Any currency that reaches a critical threshold will be regulated, ETFs will be created, futures markets and all that crap around it. Can you do anything about it? Do you have a bigger army than the US? Come on, be realistic and stop talking nonsense from behind a keyboard. If the only thing you can think of to say is, “Bitcoin has been captured! I'm going to switch to a shitcoin with lower capitalization!” 🤦‍♂️ View quoted note →

It's funny how a certain part of the crypto community attacks Bitcoin, saying that it has been captured by institutions. If Bitcoin hadn't been successful, there would be no Bitcoin futures, no ETFs, and no regulation surrounding it. We have all this because it simply won the race and had to be adopted by the fiat world. Now, this has consequences, as has happened with gold and silver, fake Bitcoin, and paper Bitcoin. But your Bitcoin remains unconfiscatable, unforgeable, and uncensorable. There is too much childishness and innocence in this community. Welcome to the adult world.

Banks vs. Coinbase The two are fighting over the shitty interest rates they give their users for playing with their money. The banks don't want Coinbase to be a threat, and Trump is on the banks' side. That's the summary.

I am politically diametrically opposed to this man, but it is worth listening to him to see what Europe is becoming. by @yanisvaroufakis Hello, this is Yanis Varoufakis with a piece of news that would have been hilarious if it weren’t so scary. This morning, two policemen appeared on my doorstep to serve a summons ordering me to the police headquarters to be interrogated by the Greek DEA, our drug busting police department. Not as a witness, expert or not, but as the accused. Accused of what? Shortly after New Year’s, I appeared on a podcast organised by young people to answer their questions on everything that concerns Gen Z today: social media, the meaning of life, their job prospects, what I call technofeudalism etc. At some point, they asked me if I had ever used drugs. Determined not to do a Bill Clinton (remember the laughable “I didn’t inhale”?), I said I had. Apart from pot, I told them, I had one experience of taking ecstasy in Sydney 36 years ago. It was pleasant, I danced for 16 hours effortlessly but then, I added, it gave me a migraine for a week – and so I never used again. That was my introduction to making the point that, however pleasant drug taking may seem, there is a price to pay. And that the ultimate price is dependence, addiction – “the end of liberty”, I said emphatically. Do you see where this is going? Yes, the Greek police have opened an investigation of me under the charge of... aiding and abetting the narco-mafia. [Do me a favour folks: Please don’t tell Trump, OK?] Seriously now, at a time of war, genocide, stupendous exploitation and so on, my little trouble with the inane Greek police is neither here nor there. But it is important. Here, in Europe, many people still live under the illusion that we have liberty, rationality and freedom. We don’t. Dark forces are at work, pushing us into a postmodern version of the Dark Ages. So, beware, people! They are out to take away the last remnants of autonomy and freedom we have left. Resistance is, literally, existence.

This is the flow chart: - I post about apples -> The Monero Bros come and tell me that Monero solves that. - I post about Jews -> The Monero Bros come and tell me that Monero solves that. - I post about women -> The Monero Bros come and tell me that Monero solves that. The third time, and I'm a man of little patience (I should have done it sooner), I get angry and start pointing out the shortcomings of their shitcoin. Then more Monero Bros come en masse crying that everything I say is a lie and blah blah blah that I have no humility, etc. etc. Honestly, they have a self-esteem problem. If their shitcoin is so good, they shouldn't worry about anything, they'll succeed. This is cyclical, and as long as they keep pissing me off, I'll keep doing it. If they don't want the truth about their shitcoin to spread, they'd better stay away from my memes and my stories. Your shitcoin has reached $700 and has barely appreciated against Bitcoin since it was created. You should be happy for at least the dollars. Stop being such a pain in the ass.
