From 19 thousand 300 dollars, it took a good reaction ...

Don't react to the next bullrun like elmo did to 19k.

The grass mud horse if you want mud horse.

I must have skipped this post explaining why proudhon's avatar's an alpaca/grass mud horse.

75 bitcoins for a pair of socks!

Lol, my only question is why is proudhon aka llama in the drawing

Proudhon is an alpaca, not a guanaco, llama or vicuna.

Alpaca socks were one of the first (legal) products available to be bought with Bitcoin.

Thx for the info, didn’t know that

Welcome, to the Bitcoin shop in the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴


Bitcoin Magazine

Yes I remember seeing an earlier post (perhaps in this thread?) on that same topic, so I decided to try to look into it a bit more in order to attempt to clarify where it is and what it does.. even though the signage looks ok.

I found this Twitter thread, but I could not find any article about it.

I was a bit confused about the location - because the Dominican Republic has a lot of towns and cities and rural areas, so merely saying that such shop is in the Dominican Republic does not really say too much.

One of the posters in the thread, said that the shop was located in las Terrenas Samaná República Dominicana.. so then that gave me the google link to show that it is in a beach town.. but still a kind of rural area.

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Las+Terrenas+32000,+Dominican+Republic/@19.3298869,-69.6917721,12z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x8eaefa71d7b6d3af:0x3c5b9a9aecc5b9fd!8m2!3d19.299298!4d-69.5559162


 I still am a bit confused about what it is that they do at the shop.. if they buy and sell bitcoin and crypto?  or if they provide information.. or something else.. More information would be good... and is it the ONLY shop of its kind in the Dominican Republic, or are there some similar locations with similar themes?  Inquiring minds want to know.

This might be it, although I'm not sure.

It's the only thing I could find in Las Terrenas.

Hair follicles grown in the lab in a step towards hair loss treatment

By modifying the embryonic skin cells of mice, researchers created hair follicles that grew up to 3 millimetres long over one month

Mature hair follicles have been grown in a laboratory for the first time, in a move that could one day treat hair loss.

Hopefully nobody will have to put up with this in the future.




did you say baldness?

Had to sell a smol amount for end of year bills and expenses.

Now it will go up.

You're welcome, WO.

Breaking.

It's going up anyway because Bitcoin's CEO decided to increase its price.

Well and me with mousy brown colored hair. when I had it now it is grayish brown and somewhat missing.

Was it this sort of brown in your youth?



They sort of grew crap hair in a lab years ago, but some of the strands were white and it was too short.

https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2013/10/21/239121782/scientists-grow-new-hair-in-a-lab-but-dont-rush-to-buy-a-comb

The new experiment grew longer colored hair, so you might be able to get the old color back in the future.

last summer 2021

1 dozen jumbo eggs on a sale  $1.59

three weeks ago same eggs $4.19
two weeks ago same eggs $5.59
this week same eggs $5.79

I sprung for 3 dozen at $4.19 and felt like a big shot.

only a few left

At $5.79 I do not know what to do when I shop tommorrow.

Don't do this whatever you do.

How are you all doing?
Been away for a few days.


Alright, alright. New data and analysis coming in. The price won't sustain more than 5 consecutive days above $19k for the rest of the year.

Did someone put this lama / alpaca in its place already?
It's been 6 consecutive days above $19k already.

Best to shut that lama in a stable for a while and let it have its winter sleep.


I'm not sure whether he's a llama or an alpaca.

Apparently a llama means someone who sucks, and alpaca means something rude in Mandarin.

Man of many skills

Except keeping his own blockchain from getting owned by a single miner who now has 70% control of it.

why hasnt the SEC gone after all the BSV influencers
Because it only takes one miner to out do what Craig Wright has done and not an entire government funded section dedicated to just securities it seems.

I have no idea why there has been a tremendous influx of pompous, loud-mouthed newbies, but can I assume that Bitcointalk's new-registration activity itself is a good metric for how Bitcoin adoption is doing?

Yup.

Sats earned now, are dollars in the bank in just a few years.  Even our little island has been invaded...


This signature campaign manager's new rule might have something to do with the influx of newbies.

The newbies must earn 1 merit a week to stay in the campaign, and he manages a lot of campaigns.


WINZ.IO is looking to advertise their casino and would like to hire 20-30 users from  Member to Legendary rank to help them out.

Hey, Gang,
I met a very special person the other day at the grocery, and I made him leave a special message for you.


I like the orange 🍊 hahaha

What Llama is dead??? No please no… spit it out we want this llama back.

The "llamas" avatar looks more like an alpaca (a.k.a. grass mud horse) to me.

The Caonima, literally "Grass Mud Horse", is supposedly a species of alpaca. The name is similar to a profanity (Chinese: 肏你妈/操你媽; pinyin: cào nǐ mā), which translates as "fuck your mother". The comparison with the "animal" name is not an actual homophone: the two terms have the same consonants and vowels with different tones, and are represented by different characters.[2] According to the original, anonymous article from Baidu Baike, Grass Mud Horses originate from an area known as the "Mahler Gobi" Desert (马勒戈壁, Mǎlè Gēbì, which resembles the Chinese characters 妈了个屄, māle ge bī, meaning "your mother's fucking cunt"). Some variants of the animal are known as "Fertile Grass Mud Horses" (沃草泥马, Wò Cǎonímǎ, which resembles 我肏你妈, Wǒ cào nǐ mā, meaning "I fuck your mother"). The Grass Mud Horse can only eat fertile grass (沃草, wò cǎo, which resembles 我肏, Wǒ cào, meaning "I fuck!" or simply "Fuck!").
