I’m not American, so not sure, but doesn’t the 4th amendment make this unconstitutional?

Actually, I still had some Eth and other shitcoins until I saw you* in Edinburgh last year, so I’d say you should just keep being you and if he’s really that good a friend, then I don’t know why he’s not listening.

Binance accepts AED but doesn’t have a BTC/AED trading pair! Typical.

And the chart looks weird, which I guess might mean that liquidity is an issue. OK, so maybe it’s not a get Bitcoin-rich quick scheme. Shame. Could have sold X Bitcoin, bought back 1.35X, sold it, bought back 1.8225X, sold it, bought back 2.46X etc.

Ah, I’ve found the catch — Kraken won’t let me deposit AED!! 🤷🏼‍♂️

I suppose it’s possible I could incur tax. Any UK accounts out there? I believe that to sell something and by it back within 30 days or so is fine, but what if I go through an intermediate step?

Downloaded the app. Signing up. May try a small amount as a proof of concept.

According to a currency converter, the ratio of AED to USD, and the ratio of BTC to USD, the price of Bitcoin in AED should be 97632, but on Kraken, it’s 72227. That means I could sell all of my Bitcoin for GBP, convert to AED for near zero loss with my bank, then buy back 35% more Bitcoin with AED. Seems too good to be true. Why isn’t everyone doing that? What are the gotchas?

It would presumably be pretty hard to do without the help of an exchange, unless when you say “money” you’re including stablecoins. Even then, you’d have to make sure they can only be purchased centrally from you or the exchange. Also, you’re not going to get someone who’s made a ton to give back their profits.
Honestly, I get the motivation, but I don’t think it’s workable.

Siri and Alexa should aspire to be like ChatGPT-4 when they grow up.

Ya know what? Chat-GPT4 can’t do that calculation. It got it wrong twice before I had to tell it the right answer.

Heist? I hope it doesn’t play into the tired old narrative about Bitcoin being for crooks.

That’s written by Chat-GPT4 btw.

Food for thought:
In the context of artificial intelligence, "The Singularity" refers to a hypothetical point in the future when technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization. This concept is primarily associated with the moment when artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence, leading to an explosive, exponential growth in technological advancements as machines begin to improve themselves or create even more advanced machines without human intervention.
Several key ideas and themes are often associated with The Singularity:
1. **Exponential Growth**: Technologies, especially AI, improve at an exponential rate. As they become more advanced, they accelerate the pace of innovation, leading to rapid and perhaps exponential technological and societal changes.
✅
2. **Superintelligent AI**: At the heart of the concept is the idea that once AI reaches a certain level of capability, it can redesign itself or create even more advanced AI, leading to a rapid escalation in intelligence, far surpassing human capability.
🤷🏼‍♂️
3. **Unpredictability**: After the Singularity, predicting the future becomes extremely challenging, as the post-Singularity world would be shaped by superintelligences that think in ways we can't fully comprehend.
🤷🏼‍♂️
4. **Impact on Humanity**: The consequences of the Singularity for humanity are widely debated. Some envision utopian scenarios with the elimination of disease, poverty, and even mortality, while others warn of potential existential threats.
😬
The term "Singularity" in this context was popularized by mathematician and science fiction writer Vernor Vinge. Later, futurist Ray Kurzweil, in his book "The Singularity Is Near," expanded on the idea, predicting that the Singularity would occur around 2045, based on trends in technological growth.

Anyone stupid enough to sell their Bitcoin because Elon arguably “lost confidence” in it is a fool who deserves to have less Bitcoin. It’s the blind leading the blind. https://cdn.nostr.build/i/14e0af31ab1e07b83c1043afca6f3a3cb5c772361b9ff0fe3acf81249442196f.jpg

He was certainly a big fan once upon a time — one of the first writers in Bitcoin Magazine.

That’s not to say Hal was Satoshi, we’re just talking about the same time-frame.

2023-08-16 06:05:57

Hypothesis: if Satoshi Nakamoto was one person in the first place, he’s dead, and has been since roughly when Hal Finney passed. Think about it — pretty much all the most serious Bitcoin aficionados actually use Bitcoin to live on as far as possible. Ya think the man who went to the bother of inventing better money wouldn’t want to use it? Why invent better money then stick with fiat? That wouldn’t make sense. Those coins are gone for good.

Anyone know why the Bitcoin price has (lately at least) been consistently higher on Binance than on Coinbase? CZ pumping or BA dumping? Huge arbitrage opportunity for someone with deep pockets. Someone with the means could buy 10K BTC on Coinbase, sell them on Binance and make $6M profit. In fact, anyone want to lend me $300M and I’ll repay with $3M interest a day later?

OK, so Damus makes Nostr close enough to Twitter to feel welcoming. I’m seeing some teething problems though, which I suppose is only fair. It’s not pulling down my header / profile images from the internet. Presumably this is down to not enough nodes yet?
