Imagine still not owning #Bitcoin. Christ

I don’t understand why he just can’t be honest about inflation. It’s not like it’s only his fault, Trump cut taxes and raised spending, exploding the deficit. But stop lying to us that inflation is low

Janet Yellen having a good time out there. She’s the best

Who’s live damas-ing the #SOTU ?

Hey @preston curious your thoughts on end game for ETF providers in the case of hyperbitcoinization (dollar worth nothing, customers stuck with ETF shares). Lets use Fidelity as an example. I think the most likely scenario is Fidelity converts the FBTC shares into Lightning and distributes it to customers' Fidelity custodial wallet. Customers will have the choice to send the Lightning to any other custodial or non custodial wallet, but it'd be a useful "banking" service for most customers and they'd already trust their brokerage. I imagine there will be some type of legal fight to allow Fidelity to convert the shares to bitcoin, but there should be enough public pressure if a large percentage of the population owns FBTC or equivalent ETFs (including politicians). Fidelity and other brokerages would be incentivized to offer highly secure custodial Lightning. They want the customers to continue using their platforms for equity trading and lending.

@Peter McCormack can you link to the devices that Rachel Geyer brought you? I may snag a few for gifts

Meanwhile, on NextDoor. Things that definitely happened

Lightning wallet set up. I actually sent my first lightning transaction from Phoenix to Wallet of Satoshi to link it to Damus. Holy shit that was fast
