@pete_rizzo_ Completely destroy the store of value closed system. The difference between 0% inflation and 0.00001% is infinite. This is one hill I would absolutely die on, I’ll sell it all and be very bitter for the rest of my life if a fork that opens the supply limit became dominant.
@romanhelmetguy What kind of nerd would use AI to gain knowledge? AI is supposed to BE the knowledge, it’s a tool.
Like picking up a knife in one hand and then trying to imitate the shape of the knife with your other hand so you can manually slice your cheese. Pointless and messy.
@mephju@31hzBTC “People” don’t want btc for self custody, they want btc because the number goes up. It’s an economic incentive not an ideological one for the vast majority.
@mephju@31hzBTC You can’t own anything in life actually if you want to get technical. You’re always dependent because you’re not omnipotent. Once you make peace with the limitations of reality, a IOU is better than nothing.
@vintage_fella@31hzBTC I’ve been doing self custody for 10 years. You have to trust the hardware, the software, the firmware, and every update to every aspect. Then you have the added risks of making your own mistakes in your protocol.
@FrankGowalski@31hzBTC Elite custodian experts and institutions with IT departments are able to run sophisticated protocols. Jimmy the plumber down the road is more at risk. The same reason people hire tax accountants for peace of mind rather than cram tax law every year.
@mephju@31hzBTC Because it’s better than fiat or gold as a store of value. Self custody advocates are utopian, there’s too much tech overhead and anxiety for the average person.
@bryan_johnson Life is not an individual pursuit, you live on through your offspring. Every night you get a soft reset, every individual lifetime gets a hard reset. You sleep easy by preparing well for tomorrow, you die easy by raising your kids well. Resisting leads to insanity. All the best.
@thedarshakrana There are only 3 spacial dimensions, this kid is clever, not practical. You can theorise an actually impossible 2 dimensional organism and extrapolate from 2 to 3 to 4 to infinity, but none of it is real, you just deduce your way into delusion. Numbers are helpful labels is all.
@philthatremains “Society is polarised”, wow you must be such a balanced and sensible guy. No actually, society is corrupt and people need real leadership and direction. Compromise is how we got here, cautiously taking the middle ground is just moving toward dysfunction in slow motion.
@robprogressive The government also didn’t do any of the work for people who pay income tax. Does the government take any risk or do any work for the logger who pays 35% income tax?
Capital gains tax is not exceptional dufus.
@emilykmay I think you’re on to something, this might lead to a true revelation. I know it’s insane but I suspect there may actually be biological differences between men and women.
Be sure to milk this mystery for clicks as much as possible before jumping to conclusions though.
@CJ_Bitcoin@Strategy The intent for Strc to remain at par either needs to be revised, given an exception during big drawdowns in Mstr and btc, or a new method to keep it near par needs to be detailed. Otherwise, smooth sailing and everything is working as advertised. 👍
@tastypunchy @NickJFuentes Stop watching porn you freak. There’s a whole world of love, family, intimacy and wholesome good times you’re blinded to when you put on the porn goggles.
