Trying to teach friends and colleagues about Bitcoin is like explaining quantum physics to a goldfish. They might open and close their mouth a lot, but you're not sure they're actually processing anything.
🚨BREAKING: Macquarie bank customers will no longer be able to withdraw cash after this month.
"Instead, you’ll be able to make payments digitally — a safer, quicker, and more convenient way to bank,” Macquarie said.

AUSTRALIA IS A GLOBAL LAUGHING STOCK
@elonmusk
The eSafety Commissar is demanding not just censorship in Australia, but GLOBAL CENSORSHIP of social media.
She is an international embarrassment, doing untold damage to Australia’s international reputation and should be sacked.
But Labor, Liberal, Greens & Lambie are so pathetically weak, they are all falling into line with this madness.
Don’t they understand they are betraying the very concepts of free speech and the world is laughing at Australia ?
🛑Imagine if the Chinese Communists demanded global censorship of social media to try and hide a video of violence against ethnic minorities - just because they’d made a law in China censoring Chinese from seeing it ?
🛑Or what about if North Korea demanded global censorship of a video of a North Korean fleeing across the border into the South - because in North Korea there was a law preventing North Koreans from seeing it.
🛑Or what about if Iran demanded global censorship of women being beaten on the street for not covering their faces - because in Iran they’d made a law preventing Iranians from seeing it.
🛑Or what about if during the Vietnam war, the South Vietnamese Government demand global censorship of images of the young girl naked & screaming after being burnt by napalm - because the South Vietnamese had made a law preventing South Vietnamese from seeing it ?

The eSafety commissioner has been granted a two-day legal injunction to compel X to hide��posts that include graphic footage relating to the Wakeley stabbing.
X has been ordered to hide the material from all users worldwide until Wednesday at 5pm, when the matter will be considered again in more detail.
X had hidden the content from Australian users but not all users, which lawyers for eSafety argued did not comply with Australian law.
Australian banks have imposed restrictions on customers making cash withdrawals.
"How can you go to a bank and not be able to get your own money out?"
"People are saying where is [my money]? You have my hard-earned cash, where is it? When the answer that you get is I just don't have it, it really does get you thinking about our whole banking system."
