Bravo Ed! Thank you for your service. We must defend the BBC's right to propagandise the British public and charge them for the privilege. It should not be up to foreign powers to dictate where we get our news from - that merit should solely be reserved for BBC Verify. I'm sure I speak for all 45 licence payers across the UK in declaring the pride we feel that the UK is home to the world's number one source of trusted news (source: BBC). I wish you all the best in your political journey and want you to know that your reading of the room in this instance means the Green Party certainly have my vote.
@scottmelker That people continue to measure dollar returns shows how early we still are. Bitcoin will measure the deflationary effects of technology forever. Re-read that sentence again.
Yes, person 'A' may sell their btc for 120k and, if we say the current supply is 20 million, that would give a 'market cap' of 2.4 trillion. It doesn't mean that all btc is for sale at 120k though, as person 'B' may require 130k before they are tempted to sell. The real signal however, is what happens when there are enough people who are no longer willing to trade their btc for dollars at all.
@daniel_cronauer@udiWertheimer That's a common misconception. The price in dollars is set at the margin. All it takes is for there to be more buyers than sellers.
Our politicians will continue to use tragic, disgusting events such as this for political gain, to further selected narratives. They will use selective outrage to create specific reactions, so they can deliver specific pre-planned solutions. Don't fall for it and don't fuel it.
Young Sikh women are not your enemy. Peaceful protesters are not your enemy. Muslims are not your enemy. Charlie Kirk is not your enemy. The people you disagree with are not your enemy.
Those who deliberately label and sow the seeds of division for their own desired outcomes need to be called out and challenged. Our fight is not with immigration, religion, race, gender or ideology, it's with those who seek to create a melting pot of hate through separation and furcation.
Curate your attention and focus wisely. It's being farmed and you're not the farmer.
@HodlerRanch@JoeCarlasare There's a lot of shade being thrown on 'grass cutters' in this thread. I'm a landscaper and I understand Bitcoin. Not all blue collar workers are idiots, in the same way that not all Bitcoiners are geniuses.
@brentkearney@BTCsessions Again, easily solved by ordering them a pizza. I'm just not of the persuasion that we should make concessions for the highly regarded.
