You know you are a serious stacker when you rather take on low interest debt to cover short term expenses then sell your Bitcoin!

World War 3 will be Russia and India vs China, im not sure what role Europe/USA will play, but they will probably be on Russia and Indias side!

Found SN a few months ago as I continue my BTC learning journey. Most days I feel like I get some solid incite from this community; other times I know I'm missing some of the importance due to my lack of technical ability.
Today I found several articles on SN VERY interesting leading me to learn more about Taproot and Sigwit, found a new blockheight tool, and a little bit of music.
Thank you SN community for letting this lowly sats stacker creep along. I hope to one day contribute as much as I've received and pass on what I know to my friends, family, and IRL community.

Stormy days here on the East coast of Scotland. Story enough that water has started leaking into my apartment!
Oh well, moved the desk away from the window and continue building on Bitcoin.

I'm traveling and thus taking a day off from my cabin project 🙂 Also, after years, I'm re-listening Peter Tosh albums and I'm certain that he was a bitcoiner!

I just discovered Stacker News and I'm thrilled! I'm going to get lost in the topic :)

Thoughts: CeFis are mean to change over time

I had a recent debate with friends about what is coming next to CeFi industries. They insist there's a direct relation between bitcoin adoption and their existence. As a random guy using p2p until 2019, I don't know if this is accurate. To me, CeFis exchanges are just salesman that changes over time.
I mean, they're big players, yes but they are not as important as they -my friends- think. Maybe I'm wrong, what do you think?

I think it's mostly about liquidity and speed, you cannot have those in a decentralized way as far as I know. Price discovery is made by speculators in a market that needs high liquidity and depth.

Going through trouble in my life at the moment. But I remember the vision of bitcoin, and what it means for the future. Is this what it felt like to be a founding father of the U.S.? Is this what it felt like to be a pioneer of philosophy, law, science? To know that there is a better way, to actively work towards it each day?

The primordial NPCs probably beat the shit out of the guy who first tried teaching them to make fire.
"That's dangerous!" "He's gonna burn the forest down!"

I hope things resolve themselves well for you my friend. We have control of nothing in life but our own actions, and the future is ours to make.
Keep pushing for the future you dream of and with every small bit of progress, you'll find yourself living closer and closer to the world of your dreams.

This is the way. Keep your head up, my dude. We're so fortunate to live through the birth of a monetary renaissance. The future is bright :)
