 One of the quiet bull markets that has been almost as powerful as bitcoin in recent years has been uranium.

The world needs a nuclear renaissance, imo. https://image.nostr.build/dfe8d7d4b06e695acb5924a588f48002da86cb45a8b7e884373e3ca289662348.jpg  
 But where do you store the used uranium later on I mean we have seen in Germany what happened, no one wanted to have such a final storage facility.

 That’s interesting, thanks for sharing 🚴🏻‍♂️ 
 Research Mox fuel. 

There's some refiners who can produce fuel rods from spent u 308.

 My second favorite position is my Uranium holdings. The charts are excellent. Massive decade long basing formations with a lot of room to the upside. 

Position size isn't nearly as big as my BTC stack, but it's fun to watch.  
 How do you hold Uranium? ETF? 
 Stay humble, stack uranium  
 Nuclear is truly the only way for constant sustainable energy 

 
 Been holding URA a few years now. I reduced my position to get some more cheap mortgage reits, but still holding a little bit long term. 
 Civilization only makes large improvements to quality of life when moving to a high energy density energy source. 

Uranium/Plutonium is so many orders of magnitude more energy dense than anything else we know of it is mind boggling. 
 Good point 👀🫵 
 Long energy long nuclear long uranium 
 I bought some years ago and it didn't perform so I sold it.

My time preference was too high back then 🥲 
 I’ve been hodling my uranium almost as tightly as my bitcoin.

But there will be a day where I sell my uranium. 
 What are the self custody options? 

😎 
 Inscribe your brokerage password on a piece of steel. That counts, right? 😂 
 At some point due to central planners manipulations past few years price of oil was negative. 

Was curious about the logistics of having physical infrastructure to pick up oil at negative prices 😃.

Probably more challenges with uranium. 
 Self custody as well? 😉 
 Lyn what metric(s) will you look to as sell signal? 
 But it seems like the Renewables ein the Race worldwide because they are much cheaper and scalable.And you can have an decentralized Energysupply for the People. https://image.nostr.build/b003d7ecd26b7356c7a5528bc8e6000f63d796e6f5996abfa2fc60d84d10cc2d.jpg https://image.nostr.build/37f55caf211733b1d406d412292b477fc87c654c2c824c485709c055d6182311.jpg  
 Yes very true! The recent news about the company NuScale having to call off their big project was very disappointing. I had high hopes for their SMR’s to maybe help scale a renaissance. 😥 
 What drives this market? 
 100%, about time heh. 
 So I change my BTC portfolio into uranium 😁 
 We can talk about it only if they find a company that is willing to o provide insurance for disasters. Right now they can't
