Oddbean new post about login | logout I watched a Trump speech because of Bitcoin. I'll never recover from this, neurologically.
he's such a grifting retard
yes he'd be the ultimate shitcoiner
It wasn’t that bad now
something called staplecoins... stablecoins... crypto crypto crypto
have fun playing with it and don't forget, my uncle is very intelligent at MIT
I was a precoiner/ normie at one point too Bitcoin friendly is definitely better than what’s going on with the current administration
Hmm actions speak louder than words. As RFK said, trump was very anti bitcoin when he was president. Attempted to ban self custody. Did not pardon Ross, assange, snowden, he could have. Biden has not attempted a ban on self custody.
You have no idea what you talking about
Ahh OK. Well in that case I'm convinced. Good job explaining your pov
The dems have been very hostile Why u think we don’t have wos in America What about phoenix? Elizabeth warrens crypto army Choke point 2.0 The proposed 30 % tax on bitcoin miners I mean the list goes on and on The republicans like Ted c in texas Ron d in Florida And now trump are all anti cbdc
Which democrat has proposed a cbdc? Has Elizabeth Warren ever got one singular bill passed in her years in senate? The answer is no. Did Donald Trump pardon Ross, assange, snowden? Did Trump talk about how he hates bitcoin and attempt to ban self custody? Did trumps SEC allow the bitcoin ETF? Did Trump in his speech yesterday say, I should be nice to bitcoiners, at least through the election? Clear proof he's just pandering for votes and idiots like you fall for it. Sad
We have tremendous privacy with Cashu, you'll be asking me to stop sending you ecash, it's that great. And you know my Uncle he's a very smart guy, Uncle John he explained to me how these Chaumian mints don't see your balances and I've gotta say it's for high IQ individuals only, really. Crooked Hillary and Kamala want you to use KYC wallets, don't listen to them.
Yeah I know But to be fair he just got orange pilled like a couple days ago Give him time
Yes, yes it was….
I guess we all have opinions 🤣
I watched the Trump speech because of crypto.
Next year it's BTCrypto Nashville, right?
I didn't watch a professional liar lie about an honest protocol which is intended to try and fix what liars have broken in the past. Their interest for personal gain is beyond uninteresting....
Double zapped
Very rambling wasn't it? Couldn't stay on topic. Not sure what that bit about woke military has to do with anything. Sounds like the US is in trouble if the military ever have to go undercover with woke groups. They won't be able to do it. Can't fake it. Just impossible for US military to be woke it seems. Guess it would be good to have a legal system with more clarity, but he didn't say what that system would be, only that he'd put together a panel of shitcoiners to invent one.
My son told me today that he wants to do a PhD in banking. My answer: "Become a comedian. You can go really far as a comedian. I know someone who made it to chancellor in Germany and even to president in the USA.
You also in need of palliative care? Sound snippets of him did this to me. We should sue this motherfucker.
I know friend, I know.. 🫂
I had the same feeling. After 20 min or so I just couldn't handle it and closed the stream. He talks like everyone is an idiot and that he is there to protect them. Anyone in Bitcoin that had studied it just a bit and understands it, it does because it had to think and come to conclusions by itself. Hard to picture any of these bitcoiners making sense of the pure cheap low intellectual populism of Trump speeches...
THANK YOU 🙏 for saying it so beautifully
Well said, but I'm afraid many are in Bitcoin solely for NGU, or because they are contrarian as a principle instead of by reason. Trump's populism appeals to many among them.
It really wasn't his greatest moment. He doesn't get it yet, but I'm hoping he does soon, or at least while he has influence.
Just wrote my thoughts here (tldr; it was a good step forward): https://njump.me/nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqqzmcn0yrn7ttq8hrjkk46ysn2tk26rr8f8k4y7xkl74hlh3rcdzqy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet59uqzprjvxmu3lcl24pcxzezcphhz4cx92j4zdxxjrcg2l7z37cuaefhmx33df2
It is entertaining, but you pay with the loss of brain cells
Lol if you didn't feel yourself getting dumber listening to it, i'd be worried
