The quote below confirmed that he is English to me. It’s just something only English people really say.

"I know this sounds really retarded, but" - Satoshi.

I believe so, retail isn’t coming back in large numbers and that’s why this cycle is going to be so painful for normies. They are going to see a bitcoin price they never thought fathomable because they didn’t take the time to understand it.

Pretty much 90% of the bitcoiners I have met who were 2016 - pre-2020 seem to have been burnt on shit coins at some point or another. So yea definitely they can, as many are maxis now.

Simple?

I agree it’s a matter of when not if but often these sort of breakthroughs just happen. LLM for example just seemed to come out of nowhere.

The time horizon is unknown but it could happen sooner than we think.

Has anyone watched the new TV series? Worth watching?

I was about 7 when I started playing C&C games back in the day. I think they and any RTS (AoE 2 etc.) games are pretty educational.

I think it more as economic energy. I deploy my energy for a set value. I then transfer that value into an asset that will store it through time.

I just pray Liverpool will provide us with the greatest bottle job the Premier League has ever seen and lose out to Brighton on the final day.

Achieved a 21 day cowboy streak and my watch is done.

RHR is the only bitcoin podcast I consistently still listen to after all these years. Marty and Odell are great representatives of the plebs, they always find the positives to focus on. Which helped during the bear market in particular! Legends.

Do you have a source to suggest the above is incorrect?

Exactly the same scenario for me. Scared the absolute bejesus out of me and I haven’t really watched horror movies since.

So you don't use any fiat currencies at all? I think that's pretty impressive and noble if so but I personally categorise a shitcoin as crypto tokens such as Doge or Solana.

I think there is a difference between a potential future Secretary of the Treasury using USDT and crypto tokens and was curious if when you call him a scammer and a commie if its because of the crypto? As that would give me a very different view on him.

Is he a shitcoiner? Or just bitcoin and USDT?

The Family Man.

Not many have seen it I find and some argue it’s not an Xmas movie but I feel like it is.

Couldn’t you make it pay-to-chart using the LN? You can then pass on compute cost to the user. Probs a lot harder to actually do than say I realise.

Great presentation! Everything is about incentives and tuning them correctly will play a major role in the success of SN.

Am I naive for thinking this has legs? Blackrock and Fidelity are amongst the largest shareholders..

I grew tired of bitcoin related podcasts many moons ago. I think it’s because it’s all been said before in most cases. Sometimes there will be an interesting guest on the What Is Money Show I will listen to.

Finance related I like The Memo by Howard Marks (listen to all of this one) and The Human Action podcast. But I mainly listen to football (not the American one) podcasts.

I love how they draw the line at bitcoin. Land owners are draining the economy more than ever and have been doing so for 100’s of years. The tax code incentivises it. They are the main cause of homelessness, yet no politician seems to care.

Bitcoin doesn’t cause people to be homeless, only for your economic energy to travel with you through time. Apologies for opting in as they inflate away your energy through their paper nonsense.
