Price does not mean value. However, prices affect values and vice versa. This is why, in a world where prices are distorted, so are the values.

I have noticed it is a bit quieter. MSM was really a big deal?

I think it created a lot of activity on the site but maybe we are seeing now that it will even out over time as things are a bit quieter now that it’s over.
reply
It seems at night there is a huge dead period. I am a night person so I miss a lot of posts happening during the day!
reply
I know I'm still recovering from March MSM.
reply
I did like it. I think they should bring it back next year but just for March and hopefully with reward distribution more similar to April where it wasn't so top heavy. I don't think they need to give a million sats to one stacker. They could say 1 million is the prize split amongst the top 3. That's still pretty good. Say #1 gets 500k and then #2 gets 300k and #3 gets 200k and then there will be a lot more rewards to distribute amongst the top 100. I would like to see folks in the 80-100 get more than 2000 sats for an entire month. The MLB survivor pool account ended up 86th or something like that and got 2600 sats. It actually had a decent amount of activity last month. I think I did 8 posts for the month and probably at least 100 comments. I know that's not exactly how the reward algo works but using that as a baseline for activity, it would be nice if folks contributing that much in a month got a bit more than 2600 sats.
By comparison the MLB account has already received around 900 sats in rewards for May since we returned to daily rewards.
reply
An annual MSM sounds good to me, but the grand prize has to be 1 million, otherwise it's not really MSM. There could also be a random prize, like 21k, awarded to a lucky winner. Another interesting initiative would be to have a weekly "MSM," for instance, every other month.
reply
I totally agree. As an annual event, it could be really fun.
I do think the million sats for the winner is good marketing, though. Plus, siggy really needs those sats to keep all of his territories afloat. I'm sure there will some tweaks to the reward system between now and then that will make the incentives a bit different.
reply
90 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 7 May
When Siggy was on KR's podcast last August he hadn't reached 1M sats yet and now I would guess he is closing in on 7M since k00b is over 6.2M. Haven't really noticed it being in the midst of it but SN activity and zap culture has really taken off.
I made a comment to cryotosensei about how fast he is getting to a million sats and how it took me over a year to hit 1M.
reply
I remember seeing him at about 5M before he went dark.
reply
yeah, I'm tired! LOL
reply
April wasn't too bad but March was wild. I definitely felt like I needed a break after March and then they rolled it out again for April. So it makes sense people are taking a little breather.
reply
No doubt.
Hey thanks for following from your Territory Nostr account. I should set one up. Have you seen others do that?

No I haven't but I did finally successfully get someone from Nostr to join SN with one of my invite links. So maybe worth a shot.

Like, seriously? Is such an inspection legally ok?
reply
Very common in Australia, at least. Also, very annoying, and quite demeaning if you ask me (way to remind you that you don't own the place you live in...)
reply
I am in the UK and it's been the same with every property I have been in... I don't find it demeaning though as even if I could buy, I don't want to own a house :)
reply
I spent a year in the UK and I met my landlord once when we signed the contract.
reply
Nice! I have been in my current house for 5 years and its been amazing! I don't deal with the landlord directly as he goes through an estate agent so I have never met him! It takes all the issues away when I need something done - they just sort it out for me!
reply
every six months - totally legal too. I am grateful for it though as it makes me deep clean the house at least twice a year which I probably would avoid more often if they didn't come
reply
The owner of my current apartment told me after he gave me the keys from the place that he hopes he won’t see me again anytime soon 😂😂😂 (otherwise, it typically means he has to come and fix something)

Real Estate

Real estate is not property, but many people think it is and enter into contracts where they own nothing, using this legal term.
The word “real” comes from the Latin root word res, meaning “thing” or “significant”, and from the Latin word rex, meaning “king”, which became “reg”, and then “regalis”.
By late Middle English it had become regal, meaning “royal” or “real”.
Estate has its origins based on the Latin word stare meaning “to stand”, which became status, then from Old French “estat”, which became “estate” from Middle English, meaning “state” or “condition”.
Therefore, as historically all land was owned by kings, “real estate” means “land owned by the king”.
Real estate became a legal term in the 1660’s to identify a royal grant of estate land, meaning the “king” had granted one of his “subjects” the use of his land.
Not only did the king “own” the land, he also owned everything upon it and everything it produced, the “subject” just had use of it, and was taxed accordingly.
Note: the great fire of London was in 1666. Prior to the fire, original property deeds had allodial title, whereas after the fire, deeds were re-named “real estate”.
In 1670-era London, the legal term “realty” came from “real estate” and is still used to this day, meaning if you buy “real estate” from a “realtor” or “estate” agent, you have only bought the title to use it, you do not own it.
Note: the acronym LOT means, “lease of title”. Therefore, if you purchased a LOT, you do not have allodial title of the land or property, just lease of a jurisdiction placed upon it.
The word lot comes from the French word “allotement”, which is from Old French word “aloter” meaning to “divide by lots”, and then portioned or assigned for use.
This deception occurs as most people believe they are conducting trade, when in fact they are acting within commerce.
It begins with physical land, which is quickly switched into a “paper” version of the land through a survey, which means to “examine” or “to see”.
This survey or jurisdiction is then placed within a corporation, and then an “interest” in the survey is offered for sale to unsuspecting customers.
Interests are sold as the corporation subdivides the survey into lot numbers; with those who purchased an “interest” only holding the lowest title to the survey, with others having a higher claim.
Just because you own something, doesn’t mean you own it.

I've read it somewhere that real estate isn't real and only real property is real.
So, real estate doesn't mean real property? Real property is much different than the real estate because only real property gives us real rights to use it as we desire.
Idk, but this is what I remember. Is it the same?
reply
0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Lux 7 May
exactly.
English is so fucked:
real = royal = real(like spanish eg Real Madrid) = man = sovereign
royals are real (wo)men, the subjects are chattel, persons
real estate is the estate of the king and you have to pay to use it
Allodial title means nobody else can touch it, not even for collateral for a mortgage or property tax, or zoning rules...
reply
Nothing is yours when you accept it to be.
Your body is yours and in fact your mind is yours. It's your responsibility not to mortgage your body and your mind to the state.
Those who act for sovereignity may risk what is already not theirs, but by doing so they can save what is theirs.
From yesterday, I've been learning a lot about allodial rights, but sadly I can't find a place where they are practiced as of now. There's no place on the earth where one can be an allodial.
As you said, your state of mind can make you so_reign, so I want to declare here that I am now the owner of mu body and my mind and in no way I'm gonna give these up.
