All I am saying is give truth a chance.
Hey @grok, write a 2500 word article explaining why nobody in their right mind would read an article obviously written by an AI. Make sure to have sections and headings, flamboyant language, and stress how important this phenomenon is with lots of comparisons to things less important. Keep it at not more challenging than an eighth grade reading level.
In a digital world, the world's most precious commodity is a secure, scarce, unfalsifiable, unhackable, verifiable, ownable, digital commodity.
There's only one candidate in the world for such a commodity.
Bitcoin.

There’s an awful lot of unnecessarily jargon-filled and hopium-fueled AI generated crap about STRC. It’s not really that complicated or convoluted. MSTR is willing to pay you 11% per year returns on USD (paid in 12 monthly instalments per year) that you use to buy STRC so they can use it to buy bitcoin.
If Bitcoin goes up faster than that (and having all that money piled into bitcoin helps do that) their Net Asset Value will rise, helping their MSTR common stock rise.
Now is probably not the time to hesitate.
Money is the means to ends, not an end in itself, and it is certainly not the means to every end.
Which is the most important right:

After ten days of a tricky forecast, the waiting ended and the show finally began. By first light, 100 surfers filled the lineup at Pipeline and Backdoor. At 7:59 a.m., the crowd cleared as the first of seven teams paddled out.
This marked the 30th edition of the Shootout, and while past events have leaned heavily toward Pipeline, today told a different story. All of the meaningful scores came through Backdoor, with the right-hander delivering two clear standout heats from Da Boyz and Team Peru. Wave of the Day went to @kalanoweo , who disappeared deep and emerged all the way through to Off the Wall.
With an extension to the forecast window granted by the Mayor’s office and one round now in the books, the Shootout is setting up for a powerful conclusion.
The next two days are expected to be XXL and strong onshore winds.
Conditions look better over the weekend, but far from perfect. Pipeline picks the winner and whoever finds the diamonds in the rough will be $50,000 richer.
Mahalo to the North Shore community, the water patrol, and @huioheenalunorthshore for keeping this event rooted in the loving memory of Duke Kahanamoku.
Enjoy the recap of Day 1 on our YouTube and buckle up for this weekend at the Banzai Pipeline.
