Canadian Liberal MP Joel Lightbound thanks Satoshi today.
These comments stand in contrast to Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who has publicly mocked heavy PM favourite Pierre Poilievre for his pro-Bitcoin comments.
Incidentally, Lightbound was the first Liberal MP to speak against Trudeau during the Freedom Convoy as well.
Perhaps he will be a player as the failing Liberal party looks for a new direction when they move on from Trudeau? https://video.nostr.build/b7b7f6d68ea77b9e1d3d2942a4fbbaee819bd09fcf8a7e00cf2ab81a69ab883c.mp4

Very interesting times. I find it challenging to look past these technological advances.
Elon mentioned living in a state of “deliberate suspension of disbelief” to stay motivated. I find that to be a fascinating statement as I think that a deliberate suspension of disbelief is just a long way of saying you have faith.
There has been a rapid rise in atheism and agnosticism, I’ve gone through this myself, and I believe this is both a cause and consequence of many social occurrences right now. Living with a purposeful faith is a very difficult thing to do outside of a religious mindset.
AI advancement is making a lot of existential discussions very relevant and I’ve got a lot that I could unpack on this subject. Maybe some day on a beach over a campfire..

The success of Twitter is the success of free speech. If Twitter adds all these features and starts becoming essentially a tv news channel and it works well, it’s going to explode.
A privately owned everything app is extraordinarily powerful and could easily influence a currency revolution that would change the world forever.
People seem to ignore that Elon Musk has said publicly that the only significant thing he owns outside of his companies is Bitcoin. His companies all hold Bitcoin, except for Twitter. Tesla stated they would suspend accepting Bitcoin as payment until mining was a little greener.
The currencies of the world are not performing well. Inflation is real, and Musk could be tiptoeing towards a powder keg.
Dump the destabilizing force of AI into this environment..
This is a unique time in history brought on by record innovation speed in the last 50 years. People are more educated than ever. Everyday people are following the Fed.
There is a very interesting year ahead and it has the potential to be extremely lucrative for people who are paying attention.

Banking Crisis explained simply:
We’ve printed money into a fractionally reserved ponzi for decades. The hubris got so great that government really thought they could shutdown the economy and pay people to stay at home with printed money during Covid hysteria.
Production stopped, scarcity exposed the excess capital in the system and the consequence of counterfeit dollars chasing fewer goods is inflation.
Now the Fed in its hubris thought they could slow inflation by cranking up interest rates.
One massive problem: the banks are fractionally reserved, and the Fed is offering yields far higher than the banks can pay. This has created a withdrawal vacuum from the banks.
The smallest, most levered banks are failing first, but this problem exists in all fractionally reserved banks.
If the Fed lowers rates meaningfully it will cause inflation to run hot again. If they keep rates high they will continue sucking money from fractionally reserved banks, and those banks will need to be bailed out with printed money or all large deposits will be destroyed.
You may have heard the expression, “you cannot taper a ponzi.” This is what that looks like in real life.
Money printing is a delusional idea and it has real world consequences. It has been repeated throughout history.
See the decline of the integrity of Roman money illustrated below:
The fact that billions of working men and women must sacrifice 40+ years of their time, energy, health, and focus to gain access to fiat currencies that central banks replicate with a keystroke is theft at the largest scale humanity has ever seen.
Cheers!

Is Core Scientific going to emerge from Ch 11 bankruptcy?
On Dec 14, B Riley wrote an open letter to shareholders laying out a plan for a 72 million dollar loan that could help Core avoid Ch11 bankruptcy.
https://seekingalpha.com/pr/19056150-b-riley-financial-issues-open-letter-to-core-scientific-investors
“Our analyst, Lucas Pipes, has been following Core Scientific since February 10, 2022. Based on his model, adjusted for current metrics, even at a Bitcoin price of $18,000, Core Scientific can generate Adjusted EBITDA of ~$140 million. Additionally, if the company builds out the Denton, Texas facility for an incremental $40 million of capital, that could add an additional $25 million of EBITDA, resulting in a run rate EBITDA of ~$165 million. On top of that, every $1,000 increase in the price of Bitcoin would likely add up to $20 million of EBITDA—meaning that if the price of Bitcoin were to increase to $20,000, Adjusted EBITDA could be over $200 million on a run-rate basis. If Bitcoin prices return to $24,500, we estimate that Core Scientific will generate nearly $275 million of Adjusted EBITDA to service creditors.”
Worth reading the letter.
Core did end up filing Ch 11 bankruptcy.
On Feb 3 a group of equity holders asked the court to form an official committee they claimed would provide “critical input with respect to valuation and negotiating Chapter 11 plan terms on behalf of equity.” The group said that Core Scientific is solvent, and that given the recent rally in bitcoin prices and the improvement of energy markets, “the value available for equity is increasing.”
On March 1st, B. Riley’s DIP loan was approved and the equity committee was also approved. The equity group represents 69 million shares. Insiders hold 107 million shares of the appx 369 OS.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/core-scientific-bankruptcy-judge-set-005507515.html
In the filings for the approval of the committee:
“The Debtors, their advisors, and the Special Committee of Independent Directors of the Debtors’ Board of Directors (the “Special Committee”)3 are keenly aware of the Debtors’ duties to all stakeholders, including equity holders. After careful consideration and deliberation, the Special Committee determined that the appointment of an Official Equity Committee with a limited scope and Budget is appropriate at this time for two primary reasons. First, rising bitcoin prices and lower energy costs suggest the Debtors may be solvent (and, at the very least, are not “hopelessly insolvent”).”
And in the official response:
“At the same time, one of the Debtors’ most significant operating costs – utilization of power to operate their mining facilities – has declined steadily since the Petition Date as underlying fuel costs have generally decreased.6 Higher bitcoin prices, lower power costs, and other developments have all served to improve the Debtors’ prospects since filing. The marketplace’s interest in providing the Debtors debtor-in-possession financing in late January further evidences the Debtors’ improved financial prospects since the Petition Date. The Debtors received four new DIP financing proposals in January versus just one from the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group (as defined below) in December7”
11. “If current conditions continue to improve, it is likely that the Debtors are
not “hopelessly insolvent,” and plausible that the Debtors are solvent”
https://cases.stretto.com/public/X217/12024/PLEADINGS/1202402252380000000010.pdf
Bitcoin was $23,000 at this time.
$CORZQ is currently trading at .30 with a market cap of around 70 to 100 million. They’re mining 45 to 50 BTC a day (posted daily on twitter). If they can emerge from Ch 11 the share price should be significantly repriced when compared to other public miners as I believe they are the largest publicly traded miner by hash rate.
Any insights are welcome. This is not intended to be advice in any way shape or form. Just though I’d try out Nostr for some crowdsourced DD.

Dutch central bank (DNB) suffered a loss of almost half a billion euros last year - the first loss since 1931.
Substantial losses are also expected for the coming years. The losses could increase to such an extent that the built-up buffers are no longer sufficient, Business Insider reports.

Communism is when the state owns all property. Central banks have infinite reserves and the ability to dilute infinitely. Therefore, they essentially have all the monetary property and distribute it as they see fit. More communist than capitalist.

The Fed needs to run a propaganda campaign because I’m not sure who’s loving them right now.

It’s the new Mcafee “I’ll eat my dick” publicity stunt imho.

It would mean hyperinflation which will have massive tail effects. Starvation, civil unrest, mass unemployment..

The Fed’s credibility is declining. Every misstep makes it harder to impose CBDCs.
Soon it will wreak of capitulation.

Regional bank runs are happening as depositors pull funds to mega banks that are guaranteed by the Fed as too big to fail.
What happens when mega bank runs go to self custodied Bitcoin?
The money printer gets stuck on to keep remaining depositors whole. Fiat death spiral.

I think if Elon started pounding the table on Bitcoin right now we’d have bankruns and shit would hit the fan.
If you’re reading this elon…

I am once again suggesting you take some time to learn about Bitcoin.
Stop writing this off as a scam. It is absolutely not a scam. It is a solution, in fact it is THE solution to a fundamentally criminal money system that you have purposely never been taught about.
Don’t wait.
This is why I still have Twitter I guess.

I agree. If everyone is using one bank with several large banks acting as sort of fed-brokerages, then there can be no bank runs. That’s one of the sales-pitches for the dystopian nightmare.
Of course, there will be one bank, one money. The question again is:
Is it controlled by a centralized criminal organization, or is it decentralized?

I agree our identity is still ours. I was thinking more of my ability to know what Leo thinks because I have a verified source for interacting with you.
Getting information directly from the source is going to be much more important going forward.

Bitcoiners know that individuals are easily corruptible, and yet they have faith in humanity as a whole.

Verified identities on social media platforms will be a fundamental requirement as AI progresses into deep fakes and mimicry.
Private keys give you control over your digital identity and how much of yourself you’d like to share. I suspect government will try to impose something similar.
But, not your keys, not your identity.

🤙’s are fiat in some ways. Costless tokens. But I get why we use them if they’re there. I use them too.
