Is it safe to assume that those friends of yours do maintain now some fiat status (board member or advisor to Bitcoin treasury companies, expensive lifestyles, celebrities, etc) and in reality don’t care any longer for the separation of money and state, and improving the future for humanity? If that is so, they are Saruman. Intelligent but unwise.

Great news to see this guy acknowledging OS models getting very good. Bullish!

But until then, I’m sticking with the option that further facilitates decentralization and monetary use of the blockchain

If that’s the case, then we’re screwed, because there’s no other option

That speed is interestingly part of Aldi’s business model. They handle a stock of less than 1.000 different items, while other grocery stores sell over 10.000 different things They use to train the cashiers to know the 3-digit code of every item by heart, so that blindly typing three numbers with one hand is even quicker than putting the item into the right position and scanning it

You might be right, I’ve never followed Bitcoin treasury companies. But there 100% was one saying they would do some hybrid between accumulating bitcoin and buying/operating bitcoin-adjacent, profitable businesses. Could be XXI or Naka, I don’t remember (and I don’t care) Honestly, Strike seems to be a very well run business. I truly think Mallers is better intended than Saylor or Bailey. Let’s see who survives this bear market 🍿🍿

At least that is just common stock and the company was supposed to have some operating activities other than just accumulating bitcoin? Or can the stock be categorized as shitcoin, the same as strc?

The US Government is such a joke. I feel so bad for Americans. But then again, I remember I come from a supposedly first-world country, where the PM’s wife is being prosecuted for corruption (the same as his brother, ex ministers, and a former PM), and I shut up 😂

I’m not sure. A childhood friend of my wife has a shitty life (at least in her eyes, so this is what she projects to the outside world), a shitty marriage, and is constantly complaining. Very difficult person to be around. Both she and her husband are objectively immature, and IMO should not have married in the first place (or at least not so early) Now the two with diagnosed depression. Unsure how “deep”. Their three kids suffer the most. Poor things. Even starting to show early signs of underdevelopment. She affects my wife and my kids negatively, to some extent. Her kids do the same to my kids, to a lesser extent. Part of me wants to tell my wife to tell her friend to get her sh*t in order, and come back when she’s done. Another part of me thinks that’s precisely what friends are for, and I suffer for those three kids. I focus on being present for my family.

I don’t use exchanges anymore. Thanks, dear EU. You forced me go deeper into the P2 P ethos of Bitcoin

The part I love the most is, on the top image representing theory, how actually one slice is distributed, but apparently everyone gets their fair share. The “how this thing is actually financed” part is the one that they always forget to think through
