This is interesting.

Eclipse is Ethereum's fastest L2, powered by the Solana Virtual Machine

https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-obituaries/  Here you go mate some fun reading material for you.

If I wanted to I could. Last time I got into BTC was in 2018. I purchased mining power with BTC to mine Ethereum - lol! I guess I am an Ethereum Maxi.

But I think the crypto industry should all get along and not be so tribalistic. I don't want to see anyone lose money, regardless of the positions they took. I think the world is big enough that multiple blockchains can be successful. I don't like the BTC Maxi approach where they run to the government to try and declare this or that a security. That's not the spirit under which Bitcoin was created.

LOL and hear i thought solana was Korean, and funny you mention Jew,  I know this Jew Chiro who missed out on  Solana in 2021 had tip from one of his wealthy clients that he touches for money.  This time he invested in solana at aroun $100, funny how they stick together.

Your little example means nothing. They stick together and you know it.

Of course I know it.  I’ve never met another group of human beings that say they are gods chosen people and have a word for everyone who isn’t Jewish.  I’ve been called a gentile several times in my life kind of weird but that’s just how they work.

Bitcoin was created to be THE world's global store of value and decentralized currency. Any person who issues coins, and purports to be a legitimate "alternative" to this function is a direct and betrayer to Bitcoin. For a while, Eth was a threat of doing this, but that narrative has now long passed.

Now, if its an issuer of a utility token (ie something that does not pretend to be money, but has legitimate value as a token of intrinsic use, Filecoin for example, that of course is different and can be endorsed and supported).

Unleah your inner Degen lol, nicely done.

I see some circling the MSTR share price. Saylor had made it. He had beaten the market. He can claim the crown for King Degen and CEO of Bitcoin. So he celebrates with 700M in leverage lol. This guy is pretty awesome and I have to admit a good part of me wants him to pull this off now that he doubled down on his billions.

MSTR is my best performing stock which bought during covid. Now up over 500% from my buy price. I plan to hodl, just for fun, as a leveraged play on BTC, although there are risks.

[gib]

what does a post 1 million bitcoin world look like? 2 classes of people? no coiners and bitcoiners? nocoiners work and slave, bitcoiners retire?

Pretty much yes. I wrote about the importance, from a societal perspective, of the future distinction between wholecoiners and everyone else. Many were laughing at the time. Now many are starting to wonder. And in the future they won't be laughing at all. Its not too late, but every day delayed is a step further away for the no-coiners. Should really be quite obvious. And will be in hindsight. Just look at the Land-Lords in centuries of the past. I believe, we will have a future where people are distinguished by wholecoiners (and above), and the Sat-slaves below.

My car is still for sale, want to buy bitcoin with the money. People are trying to lowball me thats why I havent sold yet. I should have just sold at the first low ball offer months ago and put into bitcoin. I would have already been up more than 25k. Fucking shit.

"El Salvador has been buying one bitcoin a day since 2022, according to President Nayib Bukele, who confirmed that his country’s “1 bitcoin a day program” will continue until the cryptocurrency “becomes unaffordable with fiat currencies.” The bitcoins acquired from El Salvador’s daily purchases are also deposited into the same wallet address used for the “large chunk” of bitcoins which Bukele previously revealed."

Includes more in-depth analysis on correlation b/w eth spot & futures markets (assume getting feedback this is important issue).

Also references spot btc ETF approval.

Here’s money page IMO. Issuers not gonna let SEC off hook.

Its on a car website. Mostly scumbag car traders trying to rob me and people trying to get a car for less than its worth while they can get a shittier version with 2-3x the mileage for the budget they have in mind. The process is rather infuriating dealing with these bums.

If they call me and start asking questions that are immediately answerable by reading the fucking advertisement and then ask what is the lowest price id sell it for then I know I am dealing with subhuman scum.

Alwayd have insane limit orders in place just in case this happens

I saw that.

Here's an interesting clip (around 4 minutes into the video) where Gensler talks about staking. Sounds like he is not against staking, just concerned if staking providers are actually honest about whether they are actually staking or being risky with your staked tokens. He also mentions "not your keys, not your cryptos". All valid points. I have been a Gensler hater but I have to admit he sounds reasonable in these clips.

Note that the next upgrade for Ethereum aims to make solo staking much easier and faster to set up. Vitalik has mentioned the possibility of mobile phones being used to solo stake via a secure wallet. I recall reading that Solana still does not have a slashing mechanism in place in case a staker is dishonest. Not sure if that has been implemented yet. Slashing sounds brutal, but is needed to make the staking infrastructure more robust.

That must suck if your BTC is accidentally sold for those low values! Damn!

Nothing wrong with sticking together, actually that's how it should be. That's how communities and ethnicities got ahead, by banding together. Whites are being discouraged from doing this though, ironically by the same group that look out for each other. Whites better get a clue before they are history!

Viva El Salvador!

That order was placed years ago. It's first come first serve, so good luck getting filled if you place a limit order at those levels now.

It looked like someone got their account hacked and the hackers were attempting a cascade by dumping hard (they were probably leveraged short)

I once got lucky with a sell order I placed way above market price on some big cap altcoin. The rush was incredible when I found out. Unfortunately not a life changing amount of money

[gib]

Unlikely the order would hit as usually there is so much liquidity that much higher orders would hit first. But yeah, on the right exchange and in the right circumstances, why not (although most exchanges would require you to have the cash there for the order so you could be waiting for a long time with that cash unutilized).

Makes sense though on the upside if a spike in price ever occurs and you are selling.

Really interesting day.

The SEC possibly going after proof of stake ETH as a security.

Every major player threatening to sue the SEC if they don't approve the ETH ETF in May.

Coinbase planning to launch DOGE, LTC and BCH futures on regulated exchanges. Why not spot ETFs after that.

Blackrock entering the ETH ecosystem with a tokenized asset fund and with plans that could see $Trillions enter the blockchain space over the next 5 years.

I have more than enough money to quit crypto and never look back, but I just can't quit the entertainment and drama of it all. There is nothing else like it!

Well, as I told you earlier, once a security, always a security. I think its very far-fetched to think an ETH ETF would ever be approved. DOGE LTC and BCH actually more likely from an academic perspective, but I also see those as unlikely.

They subpoena relates to it switching to proof of stake in Sept 2022. Not whilst it was proof of work for 7 years before that.
