I was looking up how to get rid of skidmarks in my driveway.
Because, the other day, I left the house with a show and I skidmarked my own driveway.
But when I google "how to get rid of skidmarks", I only get info on how to remove or stop getting poo on my underwear.
But I'm talking about actual skidmarks and I don't know how to refraise it. 🤣
Does anybody know how to get rid of actual skidmarks? Or is this info forever lost?

I started #mining!! 🧡
It's an old #Bitmain S9. It's wildly inefficient.
It produces about 9T/h at 700
Watts.
I pay about 10 times more for electricity, than I get in #Bitcoin. But I figure like this; I believe the sats I mine will go up 15 times in the coming 5 years. So they are still cheap! 🤣
Main reason tho: contribute to the network.

I started off as a degen shitcoiner. And I lost a load of money. Because I was an extremist.
Then I became a 13%, 80 IQ #Bitcoin maximalist. And I became rigid. Because I was an extremist.
It took me 10 years. But I think I'm finally at a point where I can see the two as completely separate and non contradictory.
Bitcoin is a hard asset. A vehicle for saving, certainty and security. It's great.
The rest is for tech, gambling and trading. And it's also great. It's fine.
You can be a maxi bitcoiner, but enjoy the crypto tech, crypto hype and the crypto casino.

Thought experiment.
If #BTC gets to 1 millie a coin. It will become more of an elite, high net worth protocol. It is too expensive for normal people.
The first best alternative is the same protocol, but with bigger blocks.
#BCH
Bare with me. A lot of smart people left BTC for BCH during the war. Maybe in future, the two can coexist. Maybe #BCH is the silver to #BTC's gold. Maybe... those smart people, who were/are true bitcoiners, did have a point to run the same protocol, but with a bigger block. Not as competition, but as addition.
What do you think? Is BCH bullish or is BCH bullshit.

Well, there you hit the nail on the head. I also much rather have a silver coin than a government backed piece of paper.
I'm also buying some silver and gold, but much less than I would want. Just because the afore mentioned. I lose too much value in the trading process.

Their business plan is to function as a buffer in a volatile market.
So they accumulate a stack and they sell when stock is low and buy when stock is high.
They put a premium on the price a piece, and that's how they make money.
The benefit for their clients is that they don't have to worry about the stock and flow of the day.
They get a steady price, nonetheless. That's what the OTC desks provide. They remove volatility from a volatile market.
We're now in the situation that the buffer is bought dry. They don't have BTC to dampen the sudden daily demand anymore.
So... volatility is coming back to Bitcoin. And it will be to the upside. And it will blow up another bitcoin bubble in the coming 18 months.
The buffer is broken. We're going to pump.

Yes, there are companies that provide this service, and they are known. They report the BTC they have on their balance.
The number you see in the charts is the amount they claim to have in stock.
The chart tells us their stock is being bought up faster than they can buy in.
If they buy in faster, they are pumping the price themselves and they defeat the purpose of their own service.
These are the early stages of a supply shortage and it's very bullish for us.

OTC #Bitcoin means over the counter Bitcoin.
There are companies that hold large amounts of Bitcoin and they sell it in bulk to you.
That means; if you want to buy 10 million dollars worth of Bitcoin in one go, they have the Bitcoin on the shelve. And they can provide you with that huge amount for a set price.
This means you don't have to go on an exchange. You don't want to buy that amount on an exchange, because you will influence the price to your own disadvantage. You will be pumping your own buy price. Hence, you want to buy OTC bitcoin in bulk.
This is what Blackrock does and where all the big players buy their Bitcoin. It's to not pump the price.
This chart shows; the OTC sellers have ran out of Bitcoin... if you want bulk BTC now, you will have to pump the price on an exchange.

I don't get why people buy silver and gold.
If you buy it, you'll have to pay a 15% premium on the gold price to the gold trader.
And when you sell it, you'll have to pay a 15% discount to the gold trader.
There's literally only 1 person making money... the gold trader. He earns when he sells and he earns when he buys.
This what Peter Schiff doesn't want you to realize. He's not in it for the hard money. He's not in it for the hedge against inflation.
He just wants you to buy his coins and then sell them back to him.

It literally says "allows bitcoin to create BTC"... so what's more to be read?
If that's what they mean, I'm not interested in the rest.
If that's not what they mean, they should formulate their proposition better.
I don't even get how you got to the picture comparison... what I get out of it, is that they can create fake pictures of you. Claiming it's you, but you were never there.
In effect creating paper bitcoin that may or may not be the real thing. And you will only find out if you take the effort to go and verify.
So this "Bitcoin Improvement Proposal" wants to remove from the protocol the automatic verification it performs on the validity of the sats.
It is the end of Bitcoin, because it removes the only reason for it to exist. And for what? So folks can peg their bullshit shitcoins and scams to our solid blockchain.

I've been in #Bitcoin since 2013. I've been through bear markets.
We are entering a bull market again. For the third time.
It's all repeating. Newer Bitcoiner don't even know. They think bitcoin might not Bull run again.
But it will, it always does. It repeats!

My only problem with the BIP300/301. Is the combination of words in the first sentence "create Bitcoin".
For the rest, i care little: have a ball. Do your hocus pocus. Link your shitcoins to my blockchain. Defraud as many young men as you want. You'll find a way to rob them, anyways.
Just keep your hooves of my hard cap.

Earth, water, wind and fire.
Bitcoin's element is Earth. It's still. Unmoving. Solid.
It doesn't change with the seasons. It doesn't change on a whim. It is stubborn and it doesn't move aside. It's illiquid and you can't reason with it.
But because of those properties, It's the only element you can build a house on.
Your wife can leave you, your friend can betray you, your children can grow up to be something you despise..
But you can rest assured that the rock underneath your feet won't move an inch.
That rock is bitcoin. And the very reason why we are drawn to it. We crave solidity.

I have a feeling... that we will have a spot ETF by years end.
#Bitcoin will almost double in value. I think it will go to 50k this year.

2023-08-28 17:48:09

I've stopped shitcoining about 3 years ago.
But I do miss those times a little. Spending the entire evening sending those coins around to different wallets. Writing down seed phrases in my little black book.
Thinking I'd be rich soon, but actually losing my entire net worth to scammers. Those were the days ❤️

2023-08-26 08:10:53

If you left 6 years ago and came back to #Bitcoin, you haven't missed a thing!
Literally no development whatsoever!
Also:
If you left 2000 years ago and came back to the Colosseum, you haven't missed a thing. Literally no development whatsoever.
