I'm pretty disappointed Jack M is going with these people, specially the tether crew with Ardoino & Devasini.
+ what about Strike, wasn't he already the CEO there and building fantastic tools?
It's funny I was thinking about that these days and you're definitely right, the system is fully unsustainable and if you're younger than say 50 it's mostly sure you won't get any pension, or maybe just a fraction in value of a fiat worthless currency.
I feel like an idiot contributing to that system, I need to get out ASAP and keep stacking.
Tether stinks badly and it's interesting to see how many people in this space supports those "stables" basically because that's the main liquidity for BTC trading.
Also, tether must be pretty tied to the US government / treasury as they're one of the biggest buyers of those notes. I don't think the US would allow some shady Italian to run a sort of USD mint if there wasn't a common interest.
P.S: why those Italian names sound like there's a swindle behind? Lol
It's always Andrea Scammetti or Paolo Ruggoli, Michele Defraudazzi
Electrum has shown pretty consistent work over the years. This one and Sparrow are the only 2 wallets you need to know to manage your BTC onchain.
These plugins can be activated by user, I like it.
I do get those from time to time, but not that many, most of them come from Satogram. I wouldn't consider this as spam as they're paying me for it, I'd even say this is how advertisement should work, you want my attention, you pay me sats.
The solution is rather convoluted, but I guess the way things are going, this will be the only choice.
Thanks for your answer.

Interesting reading, are you the author?
I've always been suspicious of the $MSTR play and something feels off when so many bitcoiners are cheering for it.
The 2nd law of thermodynamics well explains it: there's nothing for free. We're being told he gets "free money" to buy bitcoin with no limit, but eventually he'll have to pay back. Either the market tanks with violence or maybe he doesn't have any BTC at all, I haven't thought about that!
These ideas only make sense if you accept that CO2 is something to be avoided at all costs. There will always be producers using the traditional method so this one will be kicked out of the market by natural economic reasons.
I used to work on H2 which is supposed to be "green" but the only commercial method to produce it is by producing way more CO2. The alternative routes imply enormous amounts of electricity.
Pick your poison. Mine is definitely CO2
Thanks for the info, that looks great, would like to replicate in my country.
Will wait a few more hours for replies, otherwise you'll get the bounty.
Could you post this on any of those groups? I checked on Telegram and I need to be invited.
- By replying to the post, or on SimpleX group too
- It's Contabo, the VPS was cancelled but i need to pay one more month.
I'll send the mail with the link to pay it and then send the sats to SN wallet or any of buyers choosing. I guess there's an escrow issue, but I would never blow my reputation for 5 bux (or $5000)
