@JerryMassey@cryptoyolo7@IonicDigital@Silkee_D@GWAM_Abbate According to the company’s initial formation language, its Class II director seats should be up for election this year. Unclear if that’s still the case after the two new directors were added last year via settlement 🤷♂️

The defendants, who include corporate attorneys and other financial professionals, are alleged to have stolen and used confidential information on nearly 30 merger and acquisition deals from several of the nation’s premier law firms, including a firm headquartered in Massachusetts.
I have a perfect scheme… hear me out.
I’m going to launch a company.
Then when my normal business stalls, im going to take out 0-1% loans to buy Bitcoin.
Then when nobody will lend me at 0-1% anymore, I will start dumping loads of stock to buy Bitcoin
Then when the stock goes down too much, I’ll start borrowing again to buy Bitcoin, but this time at 8%
Then when nobody will lend me at 8%, i’ll borrow at 9%, then 10%, then 11.5% to buy Bitcoin…while also continuing to dump common shares of my company to both buy Bitcoin and also to pay the dividends on the loans to buy Bitcoin.
When nobody will lend me at 11.5% to buy Bitcoin I offer to pay them 2x per month instead of 1x per month.
When nobody responds to that anymore, i’ll of course just sell Bitcoin, to pay back the original 0-1% loans I used to buy Bitcoin, and also pay the dividends on the 11.5% loans used to buy other Bitcoin, which i’m now selling.
Shareholders will continue to give me money because their shares are backed by Bitcoin, which i’m selling to repay the loans used to buy the Bitcoin. With lower debt balances I can take out more loans to fund future purchases of Bitcoin, which i’ll of course sell to pay down the debt…
I am a genius and you are low IQ if you don’t understand why this is a good strategy.

Carl's right. Expect "bitcoin-only" companies to reboot the BlockFi/Celsius lending product, but instead of lending your BTC to Kyle Davies and Su Zhu, they'll lend your USD to Saylor and buy STRC. They're gonna claim it's safer than when Mashinsky did it. Don't fall for it.
@HeroOfBitcoin That stuff was shilled so hard 2019-2022. Most shills deleted the tweets, scrubbed affiliate links and pretended like it didn't happen....
@rekt_to_riches@JacobKinge@grok The conference gave away a huge supply of free tickets, which suffer from high no-show rates. So the actual attendees will be far lower than the numbers reported by the conference.
@JerryMassey is there and has confirmed it’s been a big drop off this year.
We’re excited to welcome Antonio Piraino (CSO) and Mark Lambourne (CDO) to our executive team. With 60+ years of collective expertise, they will be instrumental in accelerating our power-ready data center pipeline for the #AI economy.

Folks, we told you this was coming, and today the mask is fully off.
A couple weeks back we reported, based on solid sources, that Coinbase was quietly lobbying to kill a real de minimis tax exemption for Bitcoin while pushing one that applied only to stablecoins like USDC. We laid out the clear incentives in our deep dive. Coinbase made 1.35 billion dollars in stablecoin revenue last year, up 48 percent year over year, almost entirely from yield on the Treasuries backing USDC.
A proper Bitcoin de minimis would let people spend sats on everyday purchases without triggering taxable events on every transaction. That directly competes with their centralized yield machine. We called it what it was. Policy that protects Coinbase’s float rather than advancing neutral Bitcoin adoption.
Brian Armstrong pushed back hard. He called our reporting totally false and misinformation while insisting he was personally lobbying for Bitcoin de minimis. Some accused us of lying or spreading rumors. We stood firm. We offered to have Brian on the TFTC podcast to clear the air. We waited.
Now the latest draft from Reps. Horsford and Max Miller on the updated PARITY Act framework has dropped. It confirms exactly what we warned about. It gives a de minimis exemption to stablecoins but leaves Bitcoin out entirely. It keeps the punishing double taxation on Bitcoin mining fully intact while carving out relief for passive validation, basically staking. This is not an oversight or sloppy drafting. It abandons any pretense of technology neutrality and deliberately picks winners. Dollar-pegged stables and staking get the breaks, while actual Bitcoin usage as money and Proof-of-Work mining get kneecapped.
Without de minimis for Bitcoin, every small Lightning payment or sat transaction still forces cost-basis tracking and IRS headaches. Paying your plumber in sats or grabbing lunch with Bitcoin remains a taxable event. Stablecoins, being pegged and low-volatility, get an exemption they barely need. The real beneficiary is protecting that massive USDC reserve float and the yield it generates.
Meanwhile, American Bitcoin miners, already operating in one of the toughest, most capital- and energy-intensive industries, face continued double taxation while staking gets a pass. That is not neutral policy. It is industrial policy against domestic Bitcoin mining at a time when we should be leaning into energy abundance and securing the hardest monetary network.
The Bitcoin Policy Institute is releasing a full statement soon, and we fully back the call for strong community pushback. Every Bitcoiner needs to contact their reps and make it politically radioactive to sideline Bitcoin while handing carve-outs to stables and staking. This language slows real adoption, entrenches custodians, and weakens American Bitcoin infrastructure.
We weren’t lying. Our sources weren’t lying. The draft proves the reporting was on target. Those who rushed to call it misinformation owe the community some honest reflection.
Brian, if you’re still open to that conversation, the invitation stands. Come on the podcast. No spin, just walk us through how this draft lines up with your stated support for Bitcoin de minimis. The mic is warm.
This fight isn’t over. Bitcoin doesn’t need permission, but bad policy can delay sovereign adoption and punish the miners securing the network. We’re here to protect the protocol and the right of individuals to use sound money without turning every transaction into a compliance nightmare.
Stay sovereign. Stack sats. Use Bitcoin as money anyway. Call your reps today.
