Yes I think this is one of the most difficult parts. Everyone wants to buy the house which will appreciate in value but to do so requires the mortgage. Now you're locked in for 30 years working the job to keep making payments. No more room for btc at that point except for the leftovers.

But if you rent, no asset appreciation in your favor.. and they still charge the price of a mortgage. Guess you have to rough it until you can afford a full price or homestead it in the styx until you have enough to secure something at full price.

What do you do for work? Is it a specific career? Do you live debt free?

For fiat expenses you have peers that buy for you in exchange for btc reimbursements? Are you able to get everything without integrating into the fiat systems?

Tried it, like it, no one in my area lol

Enough people want this

Its interesting, is the concepy that at some point you reach escape velocity where there is essentially no need to make payments anymore? On standard setting around month 47?

In the past with the taproot soft fork it appeared that it was not an easy process to move ahead to activation. This increased my confidence towards bitcoin's stability, even after the spam bug was introduced.

Now with BIP-110 I can see that there is actually almost no restriction on pushing a hasty fork through the process. Its crazy how fast this has moved.

My two additional thoughts are:
1. If the rules allow this sort of action then it is a legit action, but perhaps a short-sighted design.

2. It is foolish to assume that if the option exists then it won' be used. You see the same thing in politics all the time i.e. the recently redistricting fights that were going on last year.

In the great game there is no morality. If you have options that are an advantage then you use them. Bitcoin is no different. My hope is that this leads to a variety of implementations and at least breaks up the software landscape.

The promise of civilization, as designed

I love the AvalonQ

From what I've heard this week the US is now an "emerging market." Does that count as a developing country now?

Just curious, how do you manage paying your bills in local currencies? Wondering if you have any new ideas that arent already out there.

Bottom right
