If you're already #allin like me, you may be wishing you had capital to deploy in this #bitcoin dip.
Sucks to suck
I do have a tip, though:
Schedule your bills to be withdrawn from @nprofile…n0wh on the same day as your paycheck, and this helps nearly eliminate the spread between sats you accrue and sats you spend.

I should've started with a splitting maul instead of only having a double-bit axe... that seems like it would've simplified things a bit now.
Only recently did I graduate to also having the wedge and hammer, and it was instantly a "yeah I'm never living without this" combo

I've discovered that a sledge hammer coupled with a splitting wedge is a must-have, especially for green logs.. then finish it up with the axe

Now I can get on board with that. They need a "nicotine warning" stating potential tax ramifications, especially if the goal is to onboard plebs who are brand new to this. And/or really iron out the details up front and not bury them, intentionally or not.

You may need to go back to the napkin with that math. I suppose if you're selling every bit of what you make, you could be right. However, if your expenses are lower than your income, this is an easy way to maxmize exposure to bitcoin while minimizing (eliminating) exposure to dollars.
Also, it is for hodlers, and to assume it isn't or can't be is some faulty logic. Sweeping a "DCA" from your strike balance to your hardware wallet is still allowed on strike while using billpay. I was a hodler long before billpay was introduced, and I continue to hodl, DCA, and leave my bags untouched while using billpay.

Yes, when your life gets cheaper because you held BTC and paid bills with it, you do have to share some of the realized cheaper-ness with the government. Newsflash: that doesn't mean you're worse off than if you had held dollars.

This actually seems somewhat bearish based on a return of an average of 50% per year... should be 95000*1.5^15=~41.6Billion...
and in actuality, it has returned an average of 316% per year if you mined and held from day 1.
so really the math would be 95000*3.16^15=~2,970,000,000,000
...that can't be right

We've found that donating old things and simplifying the amount of "stuff" they have throughout the year increases the value placed on each thing.
Kids can definitely be ungrateful, and sometimes less is more, especially on Christmas morning. This year we simplified stockings and gifts to fewer, bigger-ticket items, and there's already been far more enjoyment in each gift.
Even during the unwrapping process, it was less of "let's hurry to unwrap the next thing" and more focus on what was actually gifted.
I do like the new tradition idea!

2024-12-25 14:55:52

Being a parent giving gifts to my kids is the best version of #Christmas.
As a child receiving gifts, I always felt an awkward pressure when receiving gifts, which made the process uncomfortable and took away from the experience.
Now that the script is flipped and I'm giving the gift, I find so much joy in seeing the glee on my children's faces as they unwrap the gifts that we got for them.
This must be a taste of how Yahweh felt giving the gift of salvation through his son, Jesus.

To my pleb logic, this would indicate higher stability against downward pressure: build support, grow, build support, grow... all the while market cap is increasing, hodlers are growing in number and bags, and more institutions begin to view it as a safe haven.

Yeah I get that nobody *knows*; I'm just trying to get an idea of what other people think, hopefully from a bit more level-headed perspective. I calculated (in fiat terms) the value of N stack by when I want to retire, based on historically low returns of 100%/year [N*(2^Y)]... Very doable, and staggering, to the point that I need somebody to proverbially splash some cold water on me.

2024-10-25 01:43:37

Does anyone have any ideas regarding whether #bitcoin will continue to produce 100-150% averaged yearly returns in the medium term?
On the one hand, I get the smaller downs, smaller ups argumentation.
On the other hand, it's almost exclusively been autists, nerds, and libertarians who have supplied buying pressure up until very recently, and now we're knocking on the door of its being "part of a well-balanced portfolio" for hedge funds, pensions, nations, and large cap multinational corporations, etc.
This will bring a tsunami of capital this asset has never dreamed of.

Having an opinion doesn't make you a bad guy, obviously. Everybody has opinions.
Being somebody who has a platform where millions of people listen to and value your opinion, and sharing an opinion that leads to detrimental ends for those listeners, makes you the bad guy.
If Hitler, Hillary Clinton, and Stalin didn't have a platform/power/influence, their crappy opinions would be inconsequential.

2024-10-22 01:18:52

Hot take:
Saylor, Mallers, @nprofile…hcpn, etc are not Satoshi, and they are not the spokesmen for #bitcoin, its protocol, or whether or not you should self custody.
Also, if somebody is saying you can/should trust the government, they're usually the bad guy.

This is supported by a decent amount of medical literature.
In mice (and I believe dog) studies, they found that reducing the daily caloric intake for the animals just below "maintenance calories" resulted in like a 20-30% longer lifespan.
Crazy.
I've been experimenting with this myself lately.
I do IF for 20-24 hrs M-F, and I am generally fit and exercise. When I began simply reducing my caloric intake during the week (when I'm also fasting), I lost 15 lbs that I didn't even realize I needed to lose!

Best summary on UTXOs I can come up with:
Imagine you have a pair of pants with N pockets of infinite capacity. The pants are your wallet, and the pockets are your addresses.
Transferring small amounts of BTC into an address is like stuffing one of these pockets full of loose change: it'll all fit, but it's going to be very time consuming (expensive) if you ever try to use those coins to buy anything.
Vs
Filling that same pocket with the largest denomination of bills (BTC) possible. This makes the purchasing process much easier (cheaper) when you go to spend that same amount of money.
Not sure if I've heard this analogy somewhere else or if it's an organic thought...

Nostr, Fountain, and Fold happened.
I've had issues and/or complaints about all 3. Bitcoin works, and lightning works, but the ancillary tech being built in this space has been wonky at best.
When you live in "this" space, everything is going to seem to not work. What does work is the centralized services offered by the likes of Google, Apple, etc... This isn't a judgment call in either direction; it's simply a statement of fact.

Chapter and verse?

Praying to mere mortals so that they may go ask Yahweh on your behalf is a convoluted, unnecessary game of telephone, and borderlines on idolatry.
Jesus came to, among other things, become the church's final High Priest, meaning He intercedes on our behalf.

Not a huge fan of RFK Jr., etc. etc... But I heard him on Tucker today, and it struck me:
"Nothing is a crisis; everything is a task."
There are so many layers you could unpack from that, from spiritual things to finance to innovation.
The Bible agrees with this idea in 1 Peter 1:7, "And the proof of it is this: that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than gold which is perishable, though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ."
This thesis is given more validity in James 1:12, Philippians 4:13, Psalm 23:4, and more...

Already not liking my #bitaxe.
I thought that after setting it up and becoming more involved in the network I'd feel some satisfaction.
It's only shown me that it's insufficient. It's rated for 625 GH/s, but it's averaging about 700-750 out of the box.
I've heard in the past that miners are loud, and this one can definitely be heard from several feet away at night if I listen for it.
I've heard that miners suck down tons of energy which can make my electric bill sky high, and this is using like 12.5 watts.
I'm completely unsatisfied with my purchase.

Telegram always glowed like a honeytrap to me. It masquerades as privacy/freedom tech, but it is not so.
To your last point about where to allocate capital: Invest in content creators and/or users who migrate to freedom tech. The lack of algorithm-fueled dopamine hits will leave the average user bored and cause a loss of interest. Engagement, zaps, interesting content, and easy onboarding will make a "normie migration" far more likely. Nostr is currently a giant circle of jerks pontificating about bitcoin, crypto, and like this post, freedom tech. Platforms like this need content creators who bring diverse ideas and opinions to create real conversation. Sponsoring (paying) content creators whom you may disagree with, but who already have a following, to come on protocols like nostr will drive a network effect of engagement and adoption.
And hey, you may get more #bitcoin adoption while you're at it.
