@DarrenMcDoge@Astro1062@signalbynoise This alert came with price nice above the 200 ema on the daily and with both ema crosses done.
Just looking at the chart and the ema's, the current scenario looks more like 2022, unfortunately...
@Astro1062@signalbynoise Bearish trend starting to show some balance, but still no clear signs of reversal.
Dips below 200 ema/sma are usually good times for spot accumulation, but I'd wait for 50 ema to cross and retest at least 100 ema as a first sign of reversal and 200 ema for final confirmation.
You're completely right. However, until Dogecoin is not UOA it is subject to volatility and prices of goods and services are still in USD so, in reality, every time you buy with Doge you will be just selling it for USD to pay, with a bank still in the middle.
This is a great starting point but until the scam system and its currency exists, Dogecoin's real purpose will be still unfulfilled.
I'll probably use one of these cards anyway at some point, but I will still feel the scam in the "peep".
Let me give you a simple experiment, something testable, not a belief:
I ask you to try, for one minute, to remain aware of yourself while looking at an object, keeping the sense of “I am here.” Time it and observe how quickly you lose it.
That is measurable: duration, frequency of loss, ability to repeat. You are not measuring “consciousness” in theory, but your actual capacity to sustain it. The surprise comes when you discover you cannot do it.
The conclusion is simple: you cannot control or sustain your own consciousness, so what you call being “conscious” is mostly mechanical, not real awareness.
@matterasmachine Great, I will happily participate in next posts then, especially if I disagree. This also helps to promote your model. Is that ok for you or you prefer me to stay quiet?
You know I always encourage you to keep trying, your model is awesome and I truly wish you achieve great things with it. But if you speak about consciousness and I think you're mistaken, I'm in my right to tell you. That's part of the purpose of your social media account, isn't it? Have a great day Mr. Machine.
Your model describes the unconscious pretty well. But if you just describe the "mechanical", consciousness can't be part of your model. So you should either stop trying to integrate it in the theory or seek it within yourself to understand it. As you said, there's no point on talking about something if you are not willing to understand it.
One big mistake is to confuse mechanical reactions with real consciousness and assume you are already awake, when in reality you are almost always asleep and do nothing to change it.
These definitions are incomplete because they describe mechanisms or general properties, not the actual experience of consciousness. To call consciousness reaction, algorithm, or subjectivity is to confuse mechanical functioning with real presence.
The central mistake is to assume consciousness is already there continuously, when in fact in humans it appears only in rare moments.
Unless you see this discontinuity in yourself, any definition remains theoretical and does not lead to real consciousness, which can arise only through conscious effort.
Are you conscious of yourself right now as you read this, or are you simply understanding and reacting?
If you observe honestly, you will see that consciousness is not continuous—it appears and disappears, and most of the time it is absent.
So the mistake is practical: if you believe you already have consciousness, you will never seek it, and without effort, you will never have it.
Consciousness, as I understand it, is not a single or permanent state but a phenomenon of degrees: all matter possesses a certain level of response or sensitivity, yet this is infinitely far from self-consciousness.
True consciousness, in the human sense, appears only in rare moments of self-remembering, when one is aware simultaneously of oneself and of what one perceives, and these moments do not occur by themselves but must be produced through conscious effort, otherwise man remains in a state close to unconscious matter, that is, in sleep.
"The four conditions required to seek the Path are:
- Passionate desire to attain it.
- Discernment.
- Iron discipline.
- Initiative.
The first is essential; without it, there is no point in proceeding.
With genuine desire, one must develop discernment by every means. We live in the "Mixtus orbis", where real and imaginary are mixed. The Imaginary closely resembles the Real, like a mirror reflection, making it easy to lose one’s sense of reality.
Mathematically:
I = R √–1
(I = Imaginary = Real × √–1).
Recognizing √–1 everywhere builds discernment. The key difference is an inversion (as in a mirror), which reveals what is unreal."
Gnosis
"The man who begins to fight against the lie to himself must be forewarned about these difficulties and about the possible collapse of certain values, or even of all of them, to which he had attached a high price. But those who have not yet approached esoteric work and who, in what follows, are going to seek there some more solid and more permanent thing, must all know that true esoteric work only begins after the neophyte has gone through a general bankruptcy, his gods fallen to the ground."
Gnosis
"As long as man, despite all evidence, continues to feel sure of himself and, with even more reason, while still satisfied with himself, will continue living in absurdity and incoherence, following his desires and illusions for realities. It is necessary to have gone through the breakdown, through moral collapse; it is necessary to have observed and accepted it without any attempt at subterfuge or compromise. Only then does the search begin, the reasons for inner work are discovered, and the forces necessary to carry it out are acquired. This applies to everyone. [...] One way or another, we are all corrupted. And even if daily experience proves otherwise, man believes himself to be a being of some importance. This opinion is the consequence of a deficiency in our judgment. In reality, we are all in the same situation. The algebraic sum of our qualities and our defects is almost the same for each of us. We must not delude ourselves; the total sum is not very high. It is an infinitesimal which, as such, tends toward that zero which is Death."
