"But why not just land on the White House lawn, meet with our leaders, and explain their agenda? Because once they start talking to us, we will have a lot of questions. Such as on their nature, practices, history, and future plans. And many of us would surely hate some of their answers. They are complete aliens after all, and we are often offended by humans from slightly different cultures."

The good vs bad.
The haves vs have-nots.
Globalists, pedo elite & lizards vs us - the plebs.
The critical (antagonistic) view was the hallmark of Marxist tradition. Splitting the world in illusional half and having them fight one another.
This view makes one emotional and feeling weak. This view entices violence and self-reinforces the split. Most importantly, it ignores the structural problems, incentives and clouds rational, non-emotional view of the world.
It’s not about who is right or wrong, but what can be done to make the future better.

I don’t know if this was serious or not, but it depends on gas fees. If few are using it, gas is low and supply grows. Atm it’s almost at parity with BTC’s supply growth for this epoch

EXTRA: Low retail activity as BTC seems too expensive. Retail could flock to memecoins instead fuelling the second rally towards the end of cycle.
…this is a bit tricky to measure anyway so good thing I left it out

2024-07-27 16:09:08

My predictions for this cycle:
1. Bitcoin top October, 2025
2. Diminishing return theory broken (>$280K)
3. Diminishing drawdown in bear market / starting the upward slope of "S-curve" (might even be flat against USD, depending on geopolitics)
4. BTC.D new ATH since 2018 (>75%)
5. ETH will not make new ATH against BTC
6. SOL will not make new ATH against BTC
Lets see how right or wrong this will turn out :)

Polymarket has gained quite a popularity and I always had a feeling that there is something interesting to unpack. Currently I use it as media as people actually put their money where their mouth is.
Yesterday I stumbled upon the concept of futarchy. As weird as it sounds, I actually think it’s a superior way of governance.
Ofc there is a lot of figure out, but it’s the first system of government I can think of where the incentives actually align more or less. It’s fair, everyone can participate, experts are rewarded and information is aggregated in the market.
What do you think?

I am still doing research on this and realized I had one major false assumption - that CC runs on MCU chip with no SE. Lol, the Mk4 has 2 of those 😅
I think I assumed it as I have heard CoinKite guys saying on podcasts that everything is open-source. SE’s can’t be due to NDA so I assumed they have only MCU.
At least I learnt a lot today.

2024-07-26 11:12:30

Contrarian take - Ledger is more secure than Coldcard.
There are no guarantees than the open-source is actually compiled on a the MCU chip.
The chip secuity infrastucture of BitBox might be the best, but I just don’t like it and it feels like there are some unknown risks of combining both MCU & secure chip for unlocking seed.
PS. I use Coldcard because of air gap, but might switch back. The only thing I hate is that there is no #Bitcoin only Ledger :/
