"Well there was always going to be leakage as management has to get paid (and healthily I may add)."

Yes this is the central issue. And I know you would know as I'm sure you were amongst those who, due to your public persona, were offered enticing endorsement deal.

When it gets to that stage when they would be so desperate to perpetuate the mirage at any cost, you know the whole thing has gone upside-down. Time to unwind. Personally I'm glad it bursts now and not later on.

Such pathetic money grabbing.

Good on everyone who just stack pure hard unconfiscatable bitcoin, for the uptenth time, once the market sorts itself out, the stackers will be vindicated.

I was offered a 'Head of Bitcoin strategy' role at 5 treasury companies. I said no to all of them, without asking anything about the package. Not interested, I love my job as it is.

Well there was always going to be leakage as management has to get paid (and healthily I may add). A lot also never actually bought BTC outside pipe deals to insiders, and a bunch ran these scammy BTC converts with whales (whale can retract their BTC if the stock price doesn't moon).

The reversal of the Na/K pump, while having been documented in research, is not something that normally happens in the course of any known medical condition. So, normal apoptosis is the first paragraph, mine is significantly different in that the cells are not consumed in the process (no autophagy)...

I watched the whole 1 hour of that panel the IMF called "The future of finance" it's on YouTube.

These were my notes:

IMF REBRANDS TIME CHAIN TO DISTRINUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGY AND SEEM ONLY TO WANT TO EMBRACE VIA STABLECONS, IT SEEMS TO BE SYNTHESIS, A TRADE OFF, some sort of TRUCE WITH CRYPTO, AN ACCEPTABLE MIDDLE GROUND BETWEEN THE CONTROL THEY CRAVE AND THE DIGITAL CONVENIENCE THE MARKET DEMANDS. MONEY IS A
Winner TAKES MOST GAME. THEY CHARACTERIZE BITCOIN AS UNBACKED. EXPECT MORE OF THIS RHETORIC IN THE FUTURE. THEY SAY REGULATION IS NOT OPTIONAL IN ORDER FOR USERS TO BENEFIT FROM THE INSTANT AND CHEAP CONVENIANCE STABLECOINS UNLOCK.

That’s an amazing summary. Do you mind if I use this in my presentation? Well done

I know. I was being sarcastic. I fully agree with nostr:npub1r0rs5q2gk0e3dk3nlc7gnu378ec6cnlenqp8a3cjhyzu6f8k5sgs4sq9ac's opening note.

I didn’t know this fun fact yet. Didn’t he write it down somewhere?

I don't live in the United States. There are 6.2 million millionaires in China alone. Just 1% of them willing to buy this would be 60k.

But heh, we can agree to disagree.

Wanna bet 10k sats they sell more than 10k before the end of 2026 ?

Yes, I’ll take that bet. And I’ll note 10k is only 10% of what Trump is claiming he’ll get “very quickly”; he’s not getting 10,000 multi-millionaires to donate $1M to the US for a “gold card” EB-1/EB-2 visa when they can get an EB-5 by investing $1M and keep their money.
MrTea · 56w
I haven’t seen the details but I think this is a good point. If this were the only way to get a visa then it would very likely meet the target. But if the other options remain open then I think people will take the easier path
StackSats.IO · 56w
Trump thinks they’re going to sell 100,000 golden visas at $1M a pop 😂 Hard to describe how delusional this is. https://i.nostr.build/UVdHG8gCwHZrf1qa.jpg

I'll actually take the other side of that. I think they'll easily hit that target. You have to understand how even more fucked up most other governments are around the world. There are thousands of millionaires desperate for an escape path to somewhere slightly less shitty.

@Shawn

Synchronicity. I was just deciding on getting a Pixel 9 Fold for my birthday and switch to Graphene. Would love to hear what are the trade offs. Also do you happen to have a solid guide for making the switch. I've been using Android for +8 years.

If you plan on not installing google play services you will no longer get push notifications and a large number of apps won't work. But if you focus on finding open source alternatives its great.
Shawn · 68w
It's hard to summarize. There will be many small adjustments, and maybe a few big ones, depending on how hardcore you want to be. I reject the "open source or nothing" approach. Nice ideal. Great way to fail out of the gate. I'm using Google Play + Play Services for maps, Android Auto, banking app...
