 Lol no. He doxxed Elon's location. 

Which happens to be Nashville because there are roomers he's going to the Bitcoin conference this week.  
 This was a political coup d'é·tat.

I'll bet money Biden didn't know it was coming and the printed "signed" letter wasn't written by him and the signature is a stamp someone else put on the page. https://image.nostr.build/ef280fe7754cf00f2153e4123e5659524f475bc9140823ce6908c5e8ea180549.jpg 
 In a normal rational society, if there was an failed assassination attempt of a presidential candidate, followed immediately by the survivor's opponent resigning, everybody would be asking questions and assuming the opponent was involved.

But you know, we are WAY passed logic.

 I am all for a truly decentralized encrypted chat platform. 

You add in voice/video conferencing and it'd be game over.

Looking forward to seeing what come of this.

 GM Nostr. 

 
 I pop over to nostr every day now, just to check on the sanity. 

Twitter is so full of spam, scam, and get rich quick junkies it is almost unbearable now.  
 Happy halving everyone.  
 Looking to add some more relays, please share you favorites in the comments.  
 Any new folks from #Brazil jumping on? 

I heard they are about to ban free speech platforms in your country. Time to get everyone on a decentralized platform. 

#NOSTR to the rescue

 Here's some scary charts.

It means

Markets will be up only forever, because they will print before they let it go down.

You need to be invested otherwise you are losing.
You have to out pace the destruction of your purchasing power.

And it means in the long run #Bitcoin    wins.

 As of right now those ETFs have to buy about $600M of Bitcoin before the tradfi markets open at 930am EST on Monday. And I know those dudes don't work weekends. 

They have been coming it at like 6am to buy the needed BTC every weekday for 3 weeks now.

You can see them in a 1HR chart almost every single day. If there was a positive net inflow to the ETFs the next morning around 6am EST the pricing bounces a bit when they place the orders.

Every morning like clockwork https://image.nostr.build/875d5e00468124f1fe76a3daaec88bb516071063696183bfcb99fce0af4afe82.jpg 
 #Bitcoin flipped silver at 70k, it flips gold at 700k.

 In honor of today's ruling.

 Might be shaping up to be a special week. 

Good luck everyone.  
 No joke after Bitcoin rose back above 20k from this cycles bottom, I told my group of no coined friends that now was a good time to buy. 

6 guys, most I've known since diapers. Only 1 listened to me. The other 5 text me about it at 60k.

Me: 😂🤣😂💀 
 So where are the ETFs going to find 9k BTC on Monday morning? 

Might be a fun week. 😜 
 Something like 40 BTC left on OTC desks, going to be an interesting week next week. 

ETFs will start buying to cover new inflows at 9 am EST Monday ish if the pattern from the last 3 weeks holds true.  
 Well someone in NYC was motivated today and got to work at 5 am to start filling their ETF bags.

 What a day. Can't wait for the next 30.

Cheers to all the holders.  
 Current #bitcoin price:

 Can't wait for $0.01 per sat.

 Congrats on $40k+  #Bitcoin #nostr folks. 

Let it rip.  
 GM nostr 
 "If you stand for the victim you are morally righteous"

Is the biggest lie ever taught in the USA.

In truth, individual acts define morality, not causes. Just because some group is oppressed doesn't give them carte blanche to commit crimes.

You see this everywhere today.

It is the difference between MLK & BLM. It is what separates Ukraine & Palestine, & what defines poor Americans vs leftist extremists.

If you want to rise you have to be better than your oppressor, lawlessness as a form of rebellion is immorality disguised as justice.

This is what makes #Bitcoin such an effective protest against fist slavery.

Not only does it allow you to opt out, it is the moral high ground to fiat. An unstoppable force.

 Based on current prices, the April 2024 halving will remove $5.5b in annual supply from the market.

It's not just the ETF.

#Bitcoin  
 Not a fan of all of these "smart features" that are really just built to have a reason to gain access to everything private on your device. 

The new "AI photo search" is concerning as well.

 LLMs appear as though they are magic. This is what Arthur C Clarke spoke about. 
 Training LLMs on decentralized compute with sats is magic. 

#GPUtopia 

https://gputopia.ai/ 
 People can supply compute if they own hardware, or people can buy compute if they need to train models. 

It has both buy and sell dynamics. 

The bounties are related to development for the marketplace, website, and adding more model types.  
 Here's how anyone wanting to train LLMs can buy compute.

 What happened on Reddit? I'm not a Reddit user!  
 They issued a 💩 coin in the last bull cycle in a separate attempt to get users on their platform, and earlier this week they rugged it and basically robbed a bunch of their users.  
 This needs to happen more often. So many people still don't know about nostr.  
 Guys the fact is that if you can't see the writing on the wall for FIAT currency ( $USD) then nobody can help you.

There is 0% chance it survives long term. The printing & spending is just not sustainable. Not for any country. 

We either fix the money with #Bitcoin or ☠️😵

#Bitcoin    First Revisited

Why investors need to consider bitcoin separately from other digital assets.

https://www.fidelitydigitalassets.com/research-and-insights/bitcoin-first-revisited 
 Felt this way for a long time, but moving to POS was the final nail in the coffin.

https://image.nostr.build/286484364d1290699954701c89d4196b28d868c3a2c2636a519c6fe7858dae4c.jpg 
 So now Twitter requires you to doxx and pay them to be able to reply to posts. 

It's dead now. 

For a guy who promised to be censorship resistant (Elon) he sure shit the bed. Literally changed the platform to remove the voices of all low income users and those who want privacy. 

#Nostr for the win. 

https://image.nostr.build/78bb2f9d9339ced8a1892982de95b33f6c34e37c8cac3bbd5783ba24feea109e.jpg 
 Legit thought peak enjoyment from this market would be Bitboy finally getting arrested. But watch CSW get blasted by his boss just topped it

#Bitcoin ftw!  
 One of my friends left this on the front porch of my hunting cabin.

 ETH death cross probably means another 12 months of bear market before everything bottoms. 

Lots of Alts will still bleed out another 50%-75% down from here. 

#Bitcoin should fair better. 

https://image.nostr.build/cb0e6d8e0147ccb789f512121c9277d497e282afdf69db9b535eba2f1e2a60de.jpg 
 Interestingly enough, this cycle feels like it has the potential to be the one where Bitcoin leaves everyone else in the dust. 

A ETF approval late bear cycle would probably cause a liquidity vacuum that causes alot of the money in crypto to flow all into #bitcoin.  
 How often do you upgrade your phone? 
 Every year, but only because I get cash I have to use from work and testing apps on the latest hardware is important. 

All android no cr🍎pple 
 I'm a diehard Note user. The Spen adds so much functionality to the device, makes copying text easy, and possible anywhere, and makes screen shots, etc way more useful. 

On an S23 Ultra right now which is basically the new Samsung Note line. 

However I also really like One+. 

I've got a 0ne+9 Pro that is my "burner device" that is legit awesome. Great battery life easily root able, lots of custom roms for different security reasons. It's another great option.  
 The s23 ultra is the Note 23. the pen fits inside the phone. 

Also if you want to talk cases this is the best one I have ever used. https://amzn.to/3PvDzSi

Pitaka makes solid hardware. I love the case and the magnetic wireless charging car mount is amazing.  
 Does anyone talk College football on here?

If so what's your team?

 Yeah you can install full 3rd party app stores on android.

And if you don't mind tinkering a bit a completely privacy focus OS like Graphine OS or something similar.

 As Bitcoin's adoption increases in the long run, fees will get too expansive for jpegs and they will go away. Even if LN is only syncing with the main chain a few times per day. LN txs will be so many those syncs will still use up most of the block space.
