The CFTC deals with futures trading and futures options. These are different products from stocks and ETFs - stocks and ETFs are regulated by the SEC. Options trading on ETFs and stocks are regulated by the OCC (options clearing corporation).
This is just the CFTC saying "we have no jurisdiction over the trading of these stocks and ETFs, that's the SEC and OCCs job". Really does not say anything substantial.
Change to low time priority (should be free) if you're not in a rush. Immediate next block transactions are hard to price and are expensive. I have always just used the free option.
You're misinterpreting this convo. For next block confirm they charge -1000sats ~1%. Batch transaction is free. .001 would be the amount sent. FREEDOM UNITS FTW
Was anyone else prescribed fluoride tablets as a child?
The ones I remember taking were about the size of a lentil bean - purple and coated in grape flavoring. Took them after brushing our teeth.
We had well water so these were prescribed - thought nothing of it. Still hate the taste of city water.
Turned out not mentally impaired but just curious. Anyone else?

We don't have a masculinity crisis we have a femininity crisis. Lots of women trying to compete with men on their field and are upset they can't. So they invent institutions that forcefully inject themselves into masculine spaces.
Petrodollar relationship ended ❌
Bitcoindollar new best friend ✅
Can't control the exchange of oil in dollars anymore; regulate the exchange of #Bitcoin in dollars.
#Bitcoin backed bonds imply a bitcoin backed dollar. #Bitcoin recapitalizes the bond market.
I think we will be in the territory of sats being traded and very few bitcoin actually trading hands. I don't think fiat on-ramps last all that much longer. It's wild we can even exchange fiat for btc to begin with.
Do you think people understood 6102 or realized they just got robbed?
Do you think people will understand when #Bitcoin recapitalizes the dollar and they just got wealthy?
The key is to make it happen without everyone understanding what just happened.
Table cloth ripped off from under the table with all the dinnerware still in place.
How do you make the yield of a bond go up and the price go up?
You recapitalize the bond.
If you're a government you recapitalize the bond with #Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is financial wizardry.
We're recapitalizing the US government by buying #Bitcoin. The government will be strong and the citizens of the US stronger. US will back its bonds by the coin and we will all get more wealthy in the process. We're recapitalizing the country.
#Bitcoin is the mechanism for the US government to get out from under the boot of the Federal Reserve.
#Bitcoin is an attack on the Fed from inside the US government. There are still some patriots left. This is why you see such blatant disgust from Powell against Trump. Powell knows Trump will be the guy to put his money creation company out of business.
There are no coincidences.
MSTR can never be converted, redeemed or transferred to #Bitcoin. You have no claim to it's #Bitcoin. MSTR just re enforces the fiat system.
It's best to just exit the system and put your energy into the new one.
You're not the only one thinking this and unfortunately we will probably have a generation of people who never have families.
There is no concept of commitment anymore because there is no social scrutiny on relationships. In rural small town communities this social scrutiny is still very strong and "normal" relationships still form and exist. The "everyone go to college" generation ended up moving to cities and this social cohesion is lost.
Millennials and gen z are properly messed up with relationships.
Spamming Mempool + Saylor hovering up all the corn. Welcome to the state attack on #Bitcoin.
Easier to just use a custodian because in chain is too expensive!
