@MatthewHyland_ @DrProfitCrypto He was also shouting "40-50k bottom!!!" all year long. His narratives shift a lot. Details magically change. But yes, credit due, when it counted he did identify the buy zone.

@LDrogen On the other hand, letting the free market price life extension puts individuals into the catch 22 of, "Do I use the UBI to pay for food or extend my lifespan?" A really long, hungry life.

@DzambhalaHODL It proposes replacing republicanism with parliamentarianism. That's a rewrite of the Constitution.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@CorySwan The republic will survive this man.

@DSBatten @MorePerfectUS Damn you pulled out a de Beauvoir quote for this one. Nice.

@markusen @TheBTCTherapist And then Ethereum really is VHS.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@markusen @TheBTCTherapist I still don’t buy that permissioned stablecoins won’t revert to bank-run centralized servers eventually. I think the banks haven’t figured out yet they can just do it themselves, sans blockchain.

@LauraRbnsn DV films were a movement. Terrible quality but the cameras allowed incredible flexibility. A tradeoff. The Canon XL1 was cheap for a film that could overturn busses in London. No one back then was happy with DV picture quality. Calling it grainy was just euphemism for crappy.

@Breedlove22 Everyone read the whole verse. It describes us (BT) as much as it describes selfie-culture.

@thepowerfulHRV Ethos? There is obviously a cohort that prefers the starry-eyed move fast and break things approach of ETH and its many ducklings. It’s MMT with a blockchain.

@LDrogen Em-dashes are like manual transmission cars or tailoring your own clothes. No one teaches it but it’s out there in the world, ready to be unlocked if you want to level up as an adult.

@oldbooksguy Traditionally the tension is between equality and liberty. Ex: how France vs. the US organized their governments. The Venus of Willendorf is Paleolithic. Equality probably wasn’t a concept yet. The statue of David was a symbol to Florence of civil liberties, not excellence.

@cjasonmaier Biden silently maintained Trump’s China tariffs. I’m hoping it will be similar here. Let him have been good for something besides breaking things. He got the ball rolling on Bitcoin.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@cjasonmaier Because maybe the community finally realizes that this horse and pony show needs not to be trusted, but verified.

@bitcoinmiser It’s vanilla mob incitement. It was Nixon’s Southern Strategy. In the 80s it was the gays stealing our kids. With Bush it was the gays stealing our marriage. Now it’s recycled back to the transes stealing our kids again. Theyre pandering to fear.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@SashaOster @bitcoinmiser Agreed. Maybe more posts like this will bring more of us out of the woodwork.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@FrenchTwist4 @StephanieKelton MMT requires time to understand. So does Bitcoin. Your question would be answered quickly if you just look.

I suspect the two could ultimately be made complementary.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@jyn_urso So much love in these replies. :/ My hope for BTC is that it places outer bounds on the abuse of credit creation shenanigans by the wealthy.

[Violis @ViolisThomas]

@BTCBreadMan I’ve done both roles. Homemaker is the harder job. At the end of a long day you’re more likely to want to bash brains out. Give your stay at home partner the vacation of their dreams FFS.
