It is still hilarious to me that Mark Cuban thought he could buy bitcoin, call everyone idiots, not help with BTC adoption in any form, and then get angry and sell it because BTC didn’t act like a treasury bill.

Michael Saylor is just noise. He is not the reason BTC succeeds or fails. Although, he may be the reason for some volatility along the way. Bitcoin succeeds or fails based on actual people and nations choosing to adopt and use it at scale. Drown out the noise.

Just a reminder as I watch the Knick’s fans doing ridiculous crap online to themselves and others - sports are fun sure, but nothing worth getting into fights and busting your TV over… those players don’t know you. Quit being a loser.

So do we still think Iran is doing secret bitcoin transactions? Anyone ever find anything tangible?

Don’t let the last couple weeks of Iran drama make you forget about the Epistein files. Their attempt to move on without accountability is still at play.

Remember when people thought Epstein might be Satoshi because of like 2 emails that mentioned Bitcoin and influencing contributors 😅

I know this is a hot take, but hopefully people can be a bit open minded. I don’t think AI video creation is that lacking in human touch and art, at least not compared to the AI outrage type of person’s POV. If you have tried a video generator, it’s kind of impressive and also kind of garbage. To have a good edit, you need to be able to explain artistic concepts in detail to the AI prompt. Yes, you can put nonsense prompts and get a return, but it’s utter garbage. Right now, I just view it as a productivity tool still. Artists give it a lot of detail to get started and can come in behind the scenes to touch up, enhance, etc. Perhaps I’m wrong though. Is there any examples of really good quality AI videos from someone who is just artistically ignorant?

I’ve been asking myself for a couple years now on a philosophical level… How many people out there want social programs because they actually care about others vs how many people want social programs but are actually just projecting their insecurities and want that for themselves while contributing nothing towards it It sucks that all my confirmation biases lean towards the latter.

Remember how people thought Venezuela was hiding 500,000 Bitcoin 🤣

Bonds, gold, silver, etc- it’s all dramatic noise. All western nations are stuck with the results of central banking mistakes of the past. My guess is we will see some type of world war or new western nations created from revolutions before any of the current leaders choose to adopt a hard money again.
