no fair...GME is not shitcoin "yet"
No not a shit coin when you mine it for years. I sold 10400usd worth of doge and I acquired 0.0726 btc + 0.0147 btc + 0.0116 btc + 0.0111 btc + cash for bills. so I am now 0.11 btc better off than this morning along with 6737 in cash. Good day for me. not my terminology...I am pretty ambivalent...just what people call alts here. that said, at 900mil doge was just a funny item, but at 9bil and #8 in the charts it is a competitor in the same league so to speak. If "crazies" would pump it to $1, it would have a bronze medal within a striking distance from btc as insane as it sounds. Whether you mined it or not, it is irrelevant to the terminology. My mined grin is certainly a shitcoin (to go with the dominant vibe) by any measure, I am not even sure why I mined it-maybe to keep a card busy and did not want to bother with nicehash. The total $ amount is also has nothing to do with the validity of the term. All I can say-good for you as my post was in reference to someone else action in calling all posts as posts about s-coins while I was talking about a stock or was it a gambling debt, I can't remember  Cheers. |

My moron son just traded $20 of his satoshis for dogecoin. I tried to warn him but I guess you just need to learn.....
Ah well. Could be worse, could have been Ether.
...mine sold $1.2-1.3K of a sound stock (that was a gift) and bought 4 3 GME almost at the top..."but dad, it is going to a 1000" (d_eddie and myself are unrelated  ) everybody makes mistakes...and there is a 0.1-1% chance that it might happen. re doge...somehow that one is allowed here, maybe because it has a cool meme. |

Coinbase announced going public via direct listing (no IPO), causing a fast pop in btc price.
So...no perks for the long term customers, shucks.

Bah, I'm going to buy one share of GME. If it loses, then it's gone. If it squeezes, then my one share will be worth $50k. Then I'll turn around and turn it into BTC. Then hodl it to $10m.
I expect some (more) fuckery, so 50k is unlikely. 1-2k is within reach, though. GME at 2k is a $135bil company At 20k/share they could buy TSLA, so.... AH trades currently showing +$101 in AH, lol Well how about them apples....looks like Citadel's funds are safu  And still you have sheeple pretending on Twitter that this is fine. all roads lead to bitcoin |

that was probably on margin (or using funds that did not fully 'arrive' yet). I doubt that you can EVER do it to a non-margin position. RH is done for anyway. |

it sucks that the focus is not on btc right now, but..
Crack your knuckles and give your testicles a solid punch, you tosser.  some mouthwash would be my advice. |

Bi0d0m?  At first i was like....whoa? then I realized that this is a response to my question about stronghold, citadel.., etc. Well played! |

it sucks that the focus is not on btc right now, but.. I am looking at it with much interest.....go where the puck is going (and it ain't GME & AMC). What is? for you to decide, but I bought a small position in a commodity. Cannot force myself to play in GME. A gambler move-making it worth a nice dinner for 2 since am  That Silver has hopeless outdated tech installed not about the tech...RH has the tech in droves, but no spirit. I'll let you know if my small bet had paid off |

Citadel is giving a bad name to the 'Citadel' dream of bitcoiners. Shall we rename it? To what? Choose among synonyms: stronghold castle donjon hold alcazar the most here would probably go for Stronghold/Hold/Hodl (  ) with a minority for donjon, but my favorite is Alcazar (sound sci-fi-yingly), albeit it was moorish. F-g Citadel is dead to me as a symbol of the future. |

I just learned JJG has balls.  it is only if you count yelling at someone on a message board as an indication of having "balls". albeit, maybe this is exactly what you meant in less words |

I guess the "partners" behind the scene of RH forced them to stop the further buying of some stocks.
is the WSB dude anonymous or is his identity known? if not I guess the SEC will go against him in the next weeks and will try to put him to jail or some other incredible fine so that nobody will try such an orchestration in the future ever again.
Instead, SEC needs to go against RH and other brokerages which are CLEARLY manipulating the market-there is no question about that. I am still out. |

GME is now $245 (up 64% premarket).....but AMC is now $20.62 (up 304% (!!!) pre-market...such wow) is this a social phenomenon? |

The thing that used to annoy me most about conventional corporate wage-slavery was the 9-5 hours, specifically the 9 part. We all know that some people are morning people, some are night owls. I'm definitely the latter. No less productive, just more productive in the evening than mornings. Yet employers insist that everyone starts at 09.00. There was hardly any point me starting work at that time, I had no ability to focus until at least 12.00. And just when my focus was starting to really come together at 17.30, it was time to go home. Ridiculous working system reflecting a bygone era
And why is it always seen as a virtue to be a morning person, yet it's assumed that night owls just sit around watching TV or playing video games late into the night?
So true. I could have written your comment word for word, since I have also lived in that corporate world for only a short bit, for obvious reasons. And busy-ness - why is that seen as a virtue? There seems to be an underlying assumption that the busier a person is, the more virtuous they are.
One of the most annoying things of that corporate environment was the value placed on the perception of looking busy rather than of doing actual work. ... A friend would recount to me of the years of lay offs at his employers (a large hardware, cell phone, tech co.), where the majority of those getting laid off were the engineers that worked non-stop, and so didn't have time to speak up and be noticed. While the ones that didn't get the boot were those that spoke up and got noticed by the managers, but weren't necessarily the ones doing the heavy lifting. ... (part of the internal policy was to lay off 10%, but they hired all the time, this was thought to keep workers on there best behavior, instead it created bad blood) ... After years of this, the quality of the product, and the lack of new product suffered. All the while with the those at the top not understanding what had happened. (my btc FU fund has come in handy these past few months, lol) Why is so little value attached to making time to do nothing, to think, to slow down and to ponder the big questions?
I have taken notice of the value of quiet time to ponder and do nothing. It took years to notice this something that I was doing all the time, but now I take advantage of it to solve complex problems. While working on large data structures, or complex digital/analog circuits, if I come across a tough obstacle, I set it aside for later. ... Then I go for a walk, or just sit and find a book to read, or tinker with something else. In a few hours the solutions to the tough complex problem come pouring in. I usually write them down on paper as quickly as possible so as not to forget. Thus, I have learned how to find solutions to some tough engineering problems with zero effort, I just let the subconscious do all the work. I apply this every now and then. you might have seen this, but if not...it seems that it is prone to be solved by people with a general math knowledge. It seems complex. https://getpocket.com/explore/item/decades-old-graph-problem-yields-to-amateur-mathematician@phil...an interesting approach. Maybe you are using "other" Phil's brains across the multiverse to solve it (and you being entangled to all of them). We don't know enough how the unconscious problem solving works. I have no method, but when i was a bit younger, productive ideas just "popped" into my head. The last such idea was "buy as much bitcoin as you can ASAP" It's not an engineering, math or other science insight, sadly. |

That Gamestop run up was put together by a Reddit group. They set out to wreck all of the shorts that had been set. They succeeded.
The guy who put it together pulled in $11 million from the run up.
This crazy fucking bastard held onto his stash and is up to $22 million now. https://www.reddit.com/user/DeepFuckingValue/That dude really needs to take some profit soon, because that stock is definitely going to plummet back to earth. And fast, when it does. It's actually grown from a clear case of autism to a social phenomenon. They already have more than 140% shorts in GME. If they would increase even more the whole thing would throw a bad light on re-hypo. How did shorts manage to obtain 40% more stock to short that there suppose to be? Prominent people are starting to put their finger on the scales too-Chamath and Elon (on the long side). The thing is-they gave play money to people with not much to do and they went and bought GME, surprise, surprise. Other stonks with concentrated short interest are starting to pop as well. Who actually cares if a hedge fund or two will go bankrupt...there are thousands more. In fact, i am sure that some hedgies are already "feasting" on GME shorts. I am staying away from the whole thing. Strangely enough, bitcoin or shitcoins are not involved (yet), and I am glad that bitcoin isn't. |

he he..GME is up 94.4% today....pushed up by a billionaire who bought calls on this. LOL EDIT: well, btctalk takes so long to post...only 85% now btc is an island of stability comparing with this "madness" TSLA would probably be up or down 200 points tomorrow. |

Actually asked our agent to proactively seek out the availability status of an extra ParcelID of land right next to us, essentially allowing us to start boxing out a whole portion of the entire tract of land, should people north or south of us start selling.
Hey, maybe it would be B. Gates...you never know...he bought half of US farmland according to reports...well, maybe not half, but a lot. How about some solar there-would provide a trickle (or a flood) of corn that would pay for the upkeep? js I am not into farms myself, but sounds like an exciting venture. |

I could be OK with 500K per, but just barely. EDIT: as to printing and taxes-I never got stimmy II even though they have my info. A post office "dog'' must have eaten it. I just hope that I would not have to go through some bureaucratic nightmare when turbotax would claim that I got it and I did not (de facto). |

If i was in Robinhood mgmt shoes, I would go IPO and/or SPAC myself this very moment as it would "never be so good as now" TM
Look at that GME and TSLA.
Strangely, Robinhood craze did not really reach our shores yet.
Perhaps it would manifest itself after coinbase/bakkt/etoro IPOs/SPAC mergers.
