The S&P 500 has set a new milestone, advancing in 16 of the last 18 weeks. This achievement matches a historical precedent set in 1971, just before the termination of the Bretton Woods system. This marks a joint record for the index since its inception, according to Deutsche Bank.

Inflation in the Eurozone decelerated less than expected in February, underscoring the persistency of inflationary pressures. The annual headline inflation rate moderated to 2.6% in February, surpassing the Bloomberg survey's consensus estimate of 2.5%. Similarly, core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, dropped by 0.2 percentage points to 3.1%, exceeding the anticipated 2.9% forecasted by economists.

Container freight rates have begun to fall, indicating that the crisis in the Red Sea is no longer sufficient to sustain high prices. International logistics are adjusting to the longer transit times, beginning to remove the risk premium from international freight rates.

USA 🇺🇸: An Amish farmer is being sued by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.

The products from Amos Miller's farm are not sold in supermarkets, but only to members who consciously purchase them at his farm store or online.

According to Attorney General Michelle A. Henry, “For years, this company has rejected efforts to bring its commercial farming operation into compliance with the law – as all commercial farms are required to do,” she said in a statement.

The lawsuit represents the next step in the Pennsylvania government's attempt to force Amos Miller to submit to its regulatory control.

Exactly how shitty is gold as an investment for ROI compared to bitcoin?

Well you could not even own gold in America until 1975.   So I went as far back as possible and said if you put $1,000 in gold in Jan. 1975 vs. putting $1,000 Bitcoin at 1 dollar a coin in April of 2011 what would you have with each.?

So we are looking at 48 years invested in Gold vs. 13 years in Bitcoin.

Your gold would be worth right at  $15,000
Your bitcoin holdings would be worth $61,760,000

FWIW if you put 1,000 in Bitcoin 10 years ago to this day, BTC was under 550 a coin, so you'd have two Bitcoin (be a 2X whole Coiner).

That investment holding bitcoin for only 10 years would be worth $123,520 vs. holding $1,000 in gold for 48 years to have $15,000 in gold today.

There is no way any comparison between gold and bitcoin over any number of years beyond one is cherry picking. There is no way that gold wins this in any serious assessment, it would be the gold bug that needs to cherry pick, not the HODLr.

Gold is what it is and I don't hate it, but comparing it to Bitcoin and calling it superior as a store of wealth, is only done by the stupid.

Sorry, not sorry.

Not to spike the ball but in that 49 years gold also lost about HALF of its profit to inflation.  The 49 year ROI is 1370% vs. the compounded inflation for the same period of 660%.

If we do the comparison at 5, 10 and 15 years for each asset with each at equal terms, it is a total fuckin joke.  Gold would not even show on a comparison graph as more than a flat line on the bottom.

The time to listen to boomers about money has past, the world has changed.  They have tremendous wisdom to share, but when it comes to the monetary system they are more out of date than a hard copy of an encyclopedia from 1970.

Folks, we've reached the point where the most traded ETF on the US stock exchange is a #Bitcoin ETF. The volume of IBIT, a fund by BlackRock, now ranks first among ETFs, even surpassing the indices of the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Russell.

🚨European Union 🇪🇺: "We must act swiftly. The threat of war may not be imminent, but it is not impossible. The risks of war should not be overstated, but preparation is necessary.

Primal’s iOS and Android app are insane. They are feel better than Twitter, damus feels janky in comparison. If it worked on my account and without caching servers it would probably be my daily driver.


#Bitcoin enthusiasts are likely to achieve unprecedented success. However, they may also face significant scrutiny and criticism, potentially more than any group before. They could be accused by some of being responsible for the decline of traditional financial safety nets and the loss of assets, rights, and expectations.

The Origin of Species: How Darwin Traveled the World in Search of Evidence

Traveling the world aboard a warship was the experience Charles Darwin had from 1831 to 1836, when he became the naturalist aboard HMS Beagle, a vessel of the British Royal Navy that was part of a scientific expedition around the globe.

Darwin was just 22 years old when he was invited by Captain Robert FitzRoy to join the Beagle and participate in its mission to explore the coast of South America and the Galápagos Islands. He accepted the invitation with enthusiasm but also with apprehension, as his father was against the idea of him abandoning his theological studies at the University of Cambridge.

The journey lasted five years and was an incredible adventure for Darwin. He traveled through various countries and continents, observing landscapes, animals, plants, and different cultures.

However, what most marked the trip was his encounter with the biological diversity of the Galápagos Islands, an archipelago in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. There, he found unique species of birds, reptiles, mammals, and plants that existed nowhere else in the world. He was fascinated by the similarities and differences among them and noticed how they adapted to local conditions.

These observations were crucial for the development of the theory of evolution by natural selection, which Darwin would present in his famous book "On the Origin of Species." He began to write about his findings as soon as he returned to England in 1836.

Why ruminant animals have historically been a primary food source for humans?

https://m.primal.net/HflX.jpg

First, let's recognize the vast amount of knowledge we've accumulated from thousands of years of hunting, gathering, and progressing to modern agriculture, including crop farming and cattle rearing. In ancient times, collecting resources and information was far from easy.

Indeed, plants and grains have sustained numerous populations throughout history, but that doesn't necessarily make them the perfect diet or easily accessible. Want apples? You would need to plant a tree and wait five to ten years for it to bear fruit. Desire grain? You have to till the land, plant seeds at the appropriate times, hope for rain, and fend off pests all year long. Numerous factors could destroy a crop.

Consider how frequently you or your community might face hunger. Reflect on what was available locally and seasonally, and what was indigenous to a particular region before the advent of global trade, markets, and smuggling. The variety of foods we have today was unimaginable back then.

Also, consider the appearance and nutritional value of fruits and vegetables before genetic modifications made them bigger, more appealing, and more "edible." This perspective helps understand why many ancient foods were far from ideal or nutritious.

https://m.primal.net/HflY.jpg

Consider the vast array of food varieties we have today that didn't exist just a few hundred to a thousand years ago; many of the larger vegetables that can feed a family today simply weren't available back then.

https://m.primal.net/HflZ.jpg

Reflect on the fact that tens of thousands of plants, seeds, and raw nuts are toxic or deadly. While most plants serve medicinal purposes and can be beneficial in correct dosages, they are not necessarily suitable for regular consumption.

In contrast, ruminant animals and wild game are self-sufficient, roaming freely and available throughout the year, almost as if they are naturally inclined to be consumed. Hunting or farming meat is more straightforward, sustainable, and environmentally friendly compared to relying solely on plant sources.

https://m.primal.net/Hflc.jpg https://m.primal.net/Hfld.jpg https://m.primal.net/Hfle.jpg https://m.primal.net/Hflf.jpg

Meat is packed with nutrients, including fat-soluble vitamins, minerals, saturated fats, protein, and branched-chain amino acids. It contains nutrients in forms that are highly bioavailable, meaning that humans can absorb and utilize meat's nutrients more effectively than those from any other food source.

Meat satisfies all the essential nutrients required for humans to operate at optimal health, preventing deficiencies. Regardless of the availability of fruits and vegetables, indigenous peoples of any region would have always relied on some form of meat as a primary food source and would have been deeply appreciative of the sustenance it offers.


Wonder why he deleted this point on post.

The FDP is at risk of not achieving the minimum 5% of votes needed. Should this happen, the party would be excluded from Parliament. Hence, the desperation to ban the AFD. With 19% of the vote intentions, the AFD (according to the "far-right" activist press) is in second place👍.

A transaction will swiftly spread across the network. If there are two similar transactions almost simultaneously reported, the one initiated earlier gains a substantial advantage by reaching a larger number of nodes first. Nodes will confirm the initial transaction they encounter and reject any subsequent ones, meaning the first transaction garners more support for integration into the forthcoming proof-of-work. Essentially, each node endorses the transaction it perceives first by incorporating it into its proof-of-work process. If both transactions arrive at the exact same moment leading to a split decision, it becomes a matter of chance as to which one is incorporated into a proof-of-work first, thereby determining its legitimacy.

This chart illustrates the divergence between cash-rich Big Tech companies and Non-Profitable Tech firms. During November and December, when 10-year yields dropped from over 5% to under 4%, Non-Profitable Tech significantly outperformed Big Tech. However, this trend has completely reversed as yields have increased this year.

Greetings from #Germany, where the benchmark index Das reached all-time highs this week, even in the face of additional economic downturn indicators. However, it's essential to note that the Dax doesn't entirely reflect Germany's economic landscape. According to DB, the correlation between German GDP growth and the Dax stands at just 0.32. This is because German companies only generate 19% of their earnings within Germany.

Germany 🇩🇪: By a vote of 407 to 226, the German parliament approved the legalization of possession of limited amounts of cannabis.

Starting from April 1st, regulated distribution of cannabis for adults will be legal. Up to 50 grams will be allowed at home and 25 grams in public.

For home cultivation, individuals will be able to grow up to three plants within their own four walls.
From July 1st, so-called "cannabis clubs" can be established.

Smoking marijuana is prohibited within a radius of 100 meters from schools, daycares, playgrounds, and sports fields. Similarly, in pedestrian zones between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.


The Russian government took Lyudmila Navalnaya to see the body of her son, the political opposition figure Alexei Navalny:

"The investigators claimed they knew the cause of death and made me sign a death certificate. According to the law, I should have left with my son's body, but they prohibited me. Instead, they began to blackmail me, saying the body must be buried secretly and without any witnesses present. And in the end, they said:

'Madam, you have to decide quickly because the body is decomposing, so you know...'"

Putin issued a new arrest warrant for her other son, Oleg Navalny, who has been on Russia's wanted list since January 2022.

United Kingdom 🇬🇧: "The truth is that Islamists, extremists, and anti-Semites are now in charge; they have intimidated the Labour Party, intimidated our institutions, and now they have intimidated our country into submission," declared former Home Secretary Suella Braverman.

The statement (written in an article for the Daily Telegraph) comes after the Speaker of the House of Commons admitted to making a mistake in disregarding the protocol on security threats to parliamentarians.

Sir Lindsay (Speaker of the House of Commons) said he broke with convention to allow MPs to vote on the widest possible range of amendments, citing threats politicians received due to their stance on Israel and Gaza.

Japan 🇯🇵/Iran 🇮🇷: One of the bosses of the "Yakuza" has been accused of trafficking nuclear material to Iran.

Takeshi Ebisawa, 60 years old, is accused of displaying uranium and plutonium content - transported from Myanmar to Thailand - to an undercover agent of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
In a DEA police operation, the agent posed as a drug and weapons trafficker and claimed to have had access to an Iranian general. Subsequently, it was discovered that samples of the seized material contained uranium and plutonium for military use, according to court documents.

S&P Global’s PMI for the country’s industrial sector dropped to 42.3 from 45.5 the previous month – well below any economist estimate in a Bloomberg survey. The picture was brighter in France, where the contraction eased much more than analysts had predicted. Companies reported improving demand while expanding their workforce.

You will never need to sell #Bitcoin. If you accumulate while it's still possible, you could live solely off the income generated by it. How?

Well, there are two ways someone with all their reserves in Bitcoin can double their wealth: the price can increase by 100%, or you can have a 100% return on your reserve. This means that the price of #BTC could stay the same forever, and holders would still continually get richer.

Why don't we have this yet? Although it may not seem complementary, the answer to that question is the same as another common one: Why is #Bitcoin volatile?

Usually, the answers revolve around "emerging technology," "information barrier," or "speculative asset." I suggest an uncommon one: the lack of bankers. Let me explain.

According to Mises, "...a banker is one who lends the money of others; one who lends his own is merely a capitalist, not a banker." For whatever reason, we still haven't formed a solid Bitcoin credit market. "We don't have bankers."

Without a credit market, it's not strange that the majority (70%) of bitcoins haven't moved in the last year and are only used as a store of value.

Without ways for bitcoin holders to use their capital, most of it remains idle, decreasing market circulation and increasing price volatility. Platforms like Niti will allow you to generate synthetic Reais, Stocks, or Gold and lend these synthetics to others for them to use in trading or as collateral for their own loans.

Unlike gold, Bitcoin is perfect for use as loan collateral (supreme collateral) because the owner can quickly verify their balance (similar to ETFs) and doesn't need to trust the bank.

You will never need to sell bitcoin because there will be a bitcoin credit market - which will also massively reduce the asset's volatility (after increasing its value by about 100x).

This is why the turrets of Russian armored vehicles often jump tens of meters after the vehicles are hit. Since the Russians employ an automatic loading system for the cannon, the ammunition is stored inside and around the turret. It only takes a spark for all of this to explode, launching the turret into the air.

In Western armored vehicles, such as the Abrams, Challenger 2, and Leopard 2, the ammunition is stored in a kind of doubly armored safe inside the vehicle, greatly reducing the risk of catastrophic explosions.

The theocratic regime of Iran, ruled with an iron fist by the Ayatollah, has vowed to wipe Israel off the face of the Earth and, for that purpose, finances several terrorist groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah.

Syria, led by dictator Bashar al-Assad, has a deep relationship with Iran and Russia, allowing its territory to be used for terrorist groups to attack Israel.

Lebanon, home to Hezbollah, has been devastated in several wars fought against Israel in recent decades.

The Houthis control a part of Yemen and since October have been targeting merchant ships to directly affect Israel.

Of all these countries, which one compared Israel's war against Hamas to the Holocaust?

Which of these countries stated that Israel is doing in Gaza the same thing that Hitler did against the Jews?

Answer: none!

President Lula, with the comment he made today, managed to be more anti-Semitic than sworn enemies of Israel, such as Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen.

The outraged and furious reaction of the Israeli government may indicate that this will not be resolved solely with a diplomatic reprimand.

Because of Lula's statements, Brazil may have made a powerful enemy today and created a diplomatic crisis that could have effects in many other areas.

On this day in 2022, Putin stated that Russia was merely conducting "purely defensive" military exercises in Belarus and along the Russian-Ukrainian border and that Russia posed no threat to the West. In his statement, Putin accused the West of attempting to destabilize peace in the region by insinuating a possible Russian aggression.

Six days later, Putin invaded Ukraine with 150,000 soldiers.

In today's statement, President Lula, besides disrespecting the memory of the millions of victims of the Holocaust perpetrated by the Nazis in World War II, demonstrated a tremendous lack of historical knowledge by saying:

"What is happening in the Gaza Strip does not exist in any other historical moment... actually, it did exist, when Hitler decided to kill the Jews."

Lula ignored the authentic genocides that cost the lives of millions of innocents. Here is a list of just a few of them:

1. Holocaust (World War II, 1941-1945): Approximately 6 million Jews were murdered by the Nazi regime of Adolf Hitler, along with millions of other victims, including Roma, homosexuals, disabled individuals, and political opponents.

2. Great Leap Forward (China, 1958-1962): Policies by leader Mao Zedong resulted in one of the greatest famines in history, with death estimates ranging from 15 to 45 million people.

3. Stalin's Genocide (Soviet Union, 1932-1933): Stalin's collectivization and repression policies led to the deaths of millions of people, including the Holodomor in Ukraine, with estimates of up to 10 million deaths.

4. Armenian Genocide (Ottoman Empire, 1915-1923): Approximately 1.5 million Armenians were killed by the Young Turks government of the Ottoman Empire.

5. Khmer Rouge Extermination Campaign (Cambodia, 1975-1979): An estimated 1.7 to 2 million people were killed by Pol Pot's regime in Cambodia.

6. Rwandan Genocide (1994): In about 100 days, between 500,000 to 1 million Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed in Rwanda.

7. Suharto's Purge (Indonesia, 1965-1966): Between 500,000 to 1 million people were killed during the power transition in Indonesia.

8. Bosnian Genocide (1992-1995): During the Bosnian War, it is estimated that about 100,000 people were killed, including the Srebrenica massacre.

9. Ethnic Cleansing in Bangladesh (1971): During the Bangladesh Liberation War, it is estimated that between 300,000 to 3 million people were killed by the Pakistani army and its collaborators.

10. Herero and Namaqua Massacres (German South-West Africa, 1904-1908): Approximately 65,000 Hereros and 10,000 Namaquas were killed in a extermination campaign by the German Empire.

Russian forces are in front of the Avdiivka railway station, confirming the information that Ukrainian forces abandoned the city to avoid encirclement.

The city of Avdiivka, which had a population of 30,000 before the war, is located right next to Donetsk and has been the scene of intense fighting since 2014. With the large-scale Russian invasion in 2022, the fighting intensified, reducing the city to rubble. In October 2023, Russia reinforced the offensive, and today, February 17, after almost 2 years of fighting and a more intense phase of 4 months, the city (or what's left of it) was captured by Russia.

This marks Russia's first significant victory in Ukraine since the capture of Bakhmut 9 months ago, in May 2023.

The trial took place on December 25, 1989, and lasted only a few hours. In practice, the couple only heard the accusations and the death sentence, without being able to appeal to a higher court. To proceed with the sentence, all the soldiers volunteered to be the executioner.

Television then recorded the moment when Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu were executed, becoming the bodies of the once most powerful couple in Romania.

Before all the pro-Ceausescu individuals were caught and killed, they managed to reach various bicycles and cultural domains and destroyed numerous books and documents as an obsessive attempt to somehow erase the past.

A total of 1,104 people died in Romania during the events of December 1989, 162 before Ceausescu's fall, who had ordered the repression of the protesters, and 942 in the following days, according to a development that remains unclear even after years.

In 2018, Romanian parliamentarians attempted to launch legal actions against Ion Iliescu and former Prime Minister Petre Roman for their responsibility in the bloody days following the anti-communist uprising of December 1989.

The summary of the anti-communist uprising, which had been archived in 2015 mainly due to prescription or lack of evidence, was reopened in 2016 by decision of the High Court of Cassation. They alleged that "To preserve power," the new leaders would have, according to the prosecution, implemented a "plan" and caused "death, gunshot wounds, physical and mental harm, and the detention of a large number of people."

While the bloody confrontation continued in the streets of Bucharest, Ceausescu climbed to the roof of the Central Committee building and boarded a helicopter. His escape became the landmark of the deposition of communism in Romania. With the dictator's whereabouts unknown, dozens of protesters seized the government and state television headquarters and announced the regime's downfall. While anti-Ceausescu militants divided between those urging calm and those continuing clashes with parts of the remaining Securitate, the helicopter carrying the dictator traveled towards the Romanian mountains. However, halfway there, the helicopter ran out of fuel and descended with the pilots fleeing amid the wave of conflict, with several versions of what happened at that moment.

"Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu went out on the streets and asked for a ride. A man stopped, and they were all caught by the newly formed Revolutionary Guard," Lavina Stan recounts.

Arrested, Ceausescu was taken to a newly formed military tribunal. He and Elena were accused of crimes such as genocide and economic destruction. According to reports at the time, lawyers hastily summoned by the revolutionaries tried to convince them to claim mental instability to escape the death penalty, but the deposed couple refused, saying that other governments would help them because it was a coup.

The news of the repression in Timisoara quickly spread throughout Romania. Ceausescu had just returned from a visit to Iran and, faced with the crisis, called on the population in the country's factories to attend a speech in the main square of Bucharest. In the regime's view, it was an opportunity to show the world that the Romanian people supported the government. On December 22, 1989, Ceausescu appeared on the balcony of the Communist Party's Central Committee, in front of thousands of people waving Romanian flags, which at the time bore the coat of arms between the blue, yellow, and red colors, and banners supporting the regime were distributed. Thousands of other Romanians watched the speech on official television.

At 71 years old, Nicolae Ceausescu announced an increase in the minimum wage in a crippled economy. As he communicated the measures, a group began to shout, "Out, Ceausescu," surprising everyone present and watching the speech on television. It was the first time someone had attempted to rebel in the presence of the dictator. Ceausescu's expression turned to one of surprise, broadcast on televisions around the world. Unsure of what to do, the dictator began to ask his wife, Elena, to calm down, then stood up and demanded, "Sit down and calm down."

The television then cut off the images, but the audio continued to broadcast the shouts of "Out, dictator!" Still unsure how to act, Ceausescu interrupted the speech and returned to the building. There, a violent repression of the protesters began, and hundreds more people would be killed by the Securitate in Bucharest.

In Timisoara, one of Romania's most important cities, the detention of Pastor Laszlo Tokes, an activist of the Hungarian minority and a strong opponent of the communist regime, triggered a popular revolt on December 17, with the city's residents already stirred by the news coming from other countries.

On December 10, the Reformed pastor László Tőkés announced to his parishioners that the militia would expel him on the 15th of the same month, as he had learned he would be transferred from Timisoara to a parish in the village of Mineu in the Sălaj region. Tőkés asked his parishioners to support him in his attempt to oppose the expulsion. The Securitate, Ceausescu's oppressive apparatus, forcefully suppressed the protesters in the cities, opening fire in an action that left dozens dead in one of Romania's bloodiest crackdowns that year.

USA 🇺🇸: Texas is the American state that receives the most citizens from the so-called "Generation Z" (born between 1997 and 2012).

Texas had a net gain of over 76,000 new Generation Z residents, followed by California with nearly 44,000, and then Florida with just over 41,000 members of Generation Z, during the year 2022, according to data published by the housing platform Zillow and reported by Fox News.


And it is this crisis that marks the starting point of the Romanian Revolution in 1989. Thousands of Romanians were starving, and Eastern European countries were beginning to leave years of communist governments, such as Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. Additionally, the fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way for the reunification of Germany. The Soviet Union, under the opening led by Mikhail Gorbachev, did not intervene to stop the ongoing revolutions.

"In Romania, people celebrated these changes happening in other countries and wondered: why not here?" reports Lavinia Stan, former president of the Society for Romanian Studies and professor at St. Francis Xavier University in Canada.

The press was not free in Ceausescu's Romania, but signals from neighboring countries' broadcasters reached local television and radio stations. In cities near the borders with other countries, information came even more clearly, inflaming the hearts of the Romanian people to finally put an end to the communist government that had been oppressing their country for years.
