House prices in Australia MUST not be allowed to fall . EVER! Lest the Ponzi unwinds .... Victoria’s tax take looking shaky as housing slump smashes stamp duty https://t.co/7H3uaZeEFk
₿REAKING: The first federal home loan in American using bitcoin was officially approved today. Joe and Amy living in Michigan, bought a new house using their bitcoin wallet as collateral for a Fannie Mae mortgage.
The world spent 30 years calling Japan 'behind.'
Still uses cash.
Still uses fax.
Still has tiny shops run by one old couple.
Then the world got 'ahead' —
and ended up lonely, rushed,
and scrolling at 2 AM.
Now the same people are flying to Japan
just to feel something they can't name.
A meal made by hand.
A street that's quiet.
A stranger who's kind for no reason.
Turns out Japan wasn't behind.
It just refused to trade away
the things that actually make a life.
@MattPrider@satmojoe You can buy Bitcoin & hold it in self custody in a Self Managed Super Fund in Australia. It's not perfect given the reporting requirements, but it is the best option available.
@Croesus_BTC Thanks Jessie, great essay. The unlock comes if MSTR can earn income(yield) in their BTC stack. At 5% NOI & 500m in cash. Then they get an "A" rating from S&P, IG at least. An IG rating makes the pipe 100 x wider.
The annual Pentecost tradition (today!) at Rome's Pantheon is a moment of extraordinary beauty.
It occurs every year on the seventh Sunday after Easter. At noon, after the Holy Mass, thousands of rose petals are dropped through the oculus of the mighty dome.
As the petals fall, a choir sings "Veni Sancte Spiritus," known as the Golden Sequence, a masterpiece of sacred Latin poetry.
This is to celebrate the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Virgin Mary and the Apostles.
The rose petal ritual likely dates back to 607 AD when the pagan temple became a Christian church.
@ToxicBTC21M@saylor@JoeSquawk Hard to watch @JoeSquawk stumble & bumble his way through this interview. Even asking if the preferred equity was convertible! @saylor has the patience of a saint.
The window to lead on digital assets won’t stay open forever. Europe isn’t waiting—and neither is China.
I’ve spent years building the Clarity Act so America doesn’t have to play catch up. We must act now.
@FinanceFreeman Agreed. Remarkable that he has been able to accumulate 4% of the next 1000 year global monetary network at bargain prices! @saylor is a visionary. A modern day Rockefeller if you like. He's also way smarter than you so instead of criticising perhaps you should take a closer look
