Fun fact: Did you know that the Finns celebrate Oct 13 as their National Day of Failure?

Go on, share your failures in your BTC journey. Let’s own them instead of them having power over us.

on 13th Oct is my birthday (this is what they say in that paper named "birth certificate" and I throw it away)

I usually don't like to make to much noise about this (also not in real life I do not like "birthdays"). Birthday parties are so fake and useless.

But I start being fascinated about events in my life. I start gathering them from my past and tried to find the exact moment in time they happened. Starting with this: 13 Oct 1971. Weird day, weird year to be born at 13:13 (as they say in that paper of birth).

Is true, according to my birth certificate, I came to this world on 13 Oct 1971 at 13:13. I deny that paper, because I am not sure it was real. All this stuff is a fucking lie.

What about shorting them? I wouldn't do it myself, but there's a logic to it if you're long BTC.

71 sats \ 0 replies \ @carlosfandango 13 Oct 2023

That’s a fair point but you short them just holding BTC. Anything beyond that is risky to yourself and supports/promotes ‘altcoins’ as a market - and particularly when m (as in this quote) encouraging others to do the same and follow their lead.

Coins are VC or corporate backed, easily manipulated and it’s always those who cant afford to lose who do.

Full disclosure - I have made some sats playing a virtual trading game where I could forsee an incoming short squeeze on a token. I’m not proud of myself and I wouldn’t do it for real.

It looks "smart", but people don't realize that it's harming their souls this way, not to mention being dragged into all these scams, causing many emotions turbulent and the most precious thing we have: time.

Why not focus on Bitcoin and yourself?

You're not alone Siggy! @fiksn mentioned in their explainer how Adam Back sees it as similar to a 2016 announcement

Imagine a movie-style “briefcase swap” (one party with a briefcase full of cash, another containing secret documents), but without the potential scenario of one of the cases being filled with shredded newspaper and the resulting exciting chase scene.

So get your Lebowski friend's to fill you in - they'll know all about it!
