Elon just said, "Dogecoin, it's a hustle". Doge down 30%
So, 8th May SNL thing turn into shade. what will be our ride going to a dollar? I have looked at this, but Elon Musk drops a giant doge turd so down 30%. Buy on rumor. Sell on SNL. Robinhood stopped trades on DOGE, Beware of that. People still trading on Robinhood have a rusty pipe fetish. Let them have their fun. |

Yes saw it long back... thanks for reminding let me send it to my wife... to show her “The Good Wife”  The "good" wife was only half good. Both wife and ex-DA, politician husband do a few deeds that aren't 100% good. I thoroughly enjoyed that show. Even more so the sequel "The Good Fight", which is as commie as is gets though. Jewish lawyer lady in Chicago dates a Republican pro-gun gentleman while trying to overthrow Trump. She does mushroom juice and meets Melania through one of her colleagues - young, brown, and hot. More ingredients: the golden shower video, bitcoin on occasion, Google's AI in disguise, fentanyl lollipops, a very cynical DP big shot, and a dodgy hedge fund. Last but not least, mostly in Season 3: funny songs and animations explaining concepts such as nondisclosure agreements, impeachment and Russian troll farms. |

Hmmm... lots of colleagues around here, it seems. There are a few more I know for sure, but they're keeping silence in this discussion. I will put drums on any song you like. Wanna hear a sample? Here... i was setting up a bunch of mics on this low end "too many toms" kit I have in the studio right now and wanted to hear a balance of the kit and also make sure all the toms were making it in OK which is why it's so masturbatory.  https://www.sndup.net/53qmWhat a show off! Want a bit of criticism? All right, OK, I'll STFU.  Trapping in a room with windows is useless. Better even out the reverb times with Helmholtz resonator panels, gives a natural, not too dead room sound. Ultimately, you build a floating room in the dimensions you want the low frequency resonances/standing waves to be wiped out. You'd need some more Bitcoins for that, though Do you have good experience with Helmholtz resonators? I wanted to have a taste, and I built a "bottle" (box, not panel), but I found the resonant freq can get amplified, especially in the case of a narrow-band Helmholtz box - that is, the ones without any absorption inside. According to my sources, a thin layer of absorption (rockwool etc) inside the box will "smear" the freq response of the device, which is usually desired. Not willing to invest too much in treatment with an uncertain bang-for-buck factor, or possibly even detrimental, I dropped the Helmholtz project. But if you have a good experience to report, or can point me to reliable sources, I'm totally willing to reconsider. As it is now, I'm fine with my extensive rockwool paneling, but a little more low and low-mid absorption, shorter RF times etc., can never hurt ;-) No more plastic drum machines ;-)
Yeah, all well and good, but now I gotta find a human to play em... because I sure as hell can't... find a songwriter too while you at it ... you sure as hell can't do that either Rude. And unfair. |

Yeah, all well and good, but now I gotta find a human to play em... because I sure as hell can't... Same here. I do have a drum kit in my studio (not your fancy Gretsch, though), but my pathetic drum playing is inadequate without cutting slicing looping juggling suffering etc. I guess you know what I mean - multimic drums in particular are triple, quadruple, quintuple hell. After days of editing, I'm left with a lifeless performance that I would have been better off simulating with samples. So samples it is until some real drummer can come to help. |

Myself, I can live with plain BTC, but mBTC is easier on the eyes. With the full unit, miscounting zeros can have serious consequences. Sats could be almost OK in a similar way as (but worse than) plain BTC, but we would still have the "too many zeros" problem, just on the other side of the decimal point. Of course agreeing with @Dabs that all significant digits are, well, significant - regardless of where the decimal point is placed. However, this is about personal preference. I was talking about marketing, after @cAPSLOCK's remark. In other words, I am thinking about the 'Corn for Dummies' playbook. I still feel mBTC, but with a fancy name, could be the best choice. Like 1 dragon = over 50 bucks! Wow, one dragon is now worth 100$! Wow, 2000$!! I remember the dragons I bought at 84 bucks! And many would still be able to afford one or more "full" "dragons" - or whatever the fancy name is: anything too nerdy, like Finneys etc., wouldn't cut it in my dream. The next 1st world problem we're going to have is adding a few decimal places on-chain. Hopefully direly needed soon |

Cheaps, 1 sat = $0.00056. Lowest than doge.
I think Marty and Matt of TFTC (as well as others) have been doing a great job pushing the "Sats the standard" narrative. But this is really a difficult problem to overcome. Unit bias has turned out to be one of the stickiest areas slowing bitcoin's inevitable acceptance. In fact I would say it is one of the very top "problems". Luckily it has a simple solution. But it seems like a tough path to overcome the thought that "no one can afford a whole bitcoin anymore". I sometimes wonder if "Sats" is a good enough word. Perhaps so. It is short, simple, and generally easy to say for people who speak all kinds of languages. And it might take some time for it to finally break through, but thinking of Bitcoin in THAT unit instead of EITHER whole coins or even USD is more important than I think many realize. I agree. I've been advocating the switch to a marketing friendly name for mBTC for quite some time. A mBTC, even if it gets to, say, 2k$, is still a mentally manageable amount. |

Apparently it takes about three days before you see the cashback in your wallet, but using your card on money remittance services doesn't earn you any cashback, so I guess I wont get anything from paying with Paypal.
I'll know for sure in three days.
Great, thanks. Keep us posted! |

I just ordered a Binance card (ViSA debit). I've no idea how long it will take to deliver. Not interested in trying the electronic (virtual) substitute before receiving the actual one.
Only binance accounts can be used to top it up - no transfer from the exterior. This looks like a clear case of "not your keys". On the other hand though, the description says it converts to fiat only when spending. No maintenance fee, so I can check the exchange rate for fuckery and avoid using it altogether if I don't like what I see. Does anyone have experience with that and want to share?
You inspired me, I just ordered one too It's cheaper for me to buy through the Binance card then to sell through Safello or bt.cx and then use that money to buy the same thing. Looking forward to see the physical card. will connect the virtual card to PayPal right away. Edit: Connection to PayPal successful. Will do a trial order and pay with PayPal as soon as my 0.02 btc reaches my Binance wallet. I've used the card in different stores and 3 different places online, works like a charm. Wow nice to hear, thanks guys. How about the cashbacks? Got any? That's the part that intrigues me most. I do replace every sat I spend anyway, so it would just be a bit of free money for me. |

Wait a minute... did they ask for Satoshi's permission to print his name on the visa card for marketing?  CSW lawsuit incoming...  Fact is, they did ask for permission by email. They also tried a PM on bitcointalk.org, but they never got an answer - as if he were dead or something. I hope Faketoshi sues. I've got lots of popcorn saved for special occasions. |

One thing is certain - whenever the shitcoin shithousery* reaches a level of ridiculousness sufficient for the WO to make comment, it's a sure sign that some bubbles are about to pop and some lemmings are about to get rekt. I might have to get some popcorn ready for this evening.... EDIT: *a term from English football, which seems very appropriate to describe the current shitcoin activity:

Wow...I never knew that after nearly three decades with someone that is supposedly your soulmate for life, that you still have to desperately find "a way to grow together" or its divorce-ville. Thanks for clarifying real marriage there, Bill.
(These fkn celebrity marriages...I swear)One lucky guy that Bill is. Now he gets to upgrade to Wife 2.0. I'm sure a guy like that can have extra upgrade channels, dual setups and all kinds of technical solutions, even if the 1.0 version should refuse to uninstall. |

Remarkably young voice! A certain psych tinge in the chord changes makes me think more of Canterbury than of the other side of the pond. |

-multisnip-Bill Maher His jokes about it sound so cliché, he's obviously a no coiner you sound like a n clueless boomer stuck in the nineties. Don't rant about something you know nothing about. You just lost my respect.... And I'm a boomer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaJpYjO136oJokes for nocoiners, from a fellow nocoiner. Nothing to see, folks, move on please... This John Oliver piece, though much older and dated, is sooo much better. And hilarious. IF you haven't seen and don't mind dated material, and have 30 minutes to spare I highly recommend. He nails it. (as John Oliver usually does.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6iDZspbRMgedit...I just watched it again...yup, brilliant! Dan say EOS to da moooon!? |

My apologies for not scanning back to see if this has been touched on already. Too busy with other projects to spend much time here catching up with 3 million pages...., anyway my 2 cents... So I actually I've always been on on board with a lot of Bill Maher positions and especially his religion views. However after watching his latest rant on crypto (yeah sorry jay I said crypto, because reasons, don't have a hissy) His jokes about it sound so cliché, he's obviously a no coiner and only listens to other no coiners and doesn't have a fucking clue in this area except what you read in msm. Bill, love your humor on other subjects dude, but on this particular subject you sound like a n clueless boomer stuck in the nineties. Don't rant about something you know nothing about. You just lost my respect.... And I'm a boomer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaJpYjO136oBeing a seasoned comedian, he's probably reluctant to use a script by some 20-30something who might actually have a clue. It doesn't even take a WO-er to see what he's left with for what it is. Jokes for nocoiners, from a fellow nocoiner. Nothing to see, folks, move on please... |

He might have had some valid points but he lost me when he started with, " I fully understand that our financial system isn't perfect but at least it's real." Exactly! Humans use too much energy - even the ones using the real financial system. Mechanical/biological POV: boiled down, it's how much of a quasi-monoculture of humans can this planet sustain at various levels of mutual comfort? If we were in the low-mid hundreds of myriads, no problem: have all the tantalium you want - or buffalo, or whatever you can realistically find. Just a matter of price. Oops. Be it the economy or just a kind of behavioral physics, we end up doing hat many other animals - or plants - do when left alone in a place where they "just can": multiply and grow in shapes that often are exponential up to a ceiling, much like an S of sorts. But I digress. There are S-curves that spin more pleasant thought, and this gentlemen. |

Words of wisdom from Arthur Hayes https://blog.bitmex.com/grow-up-or-blow-up/The difference between a trader and a truly prescient investor is having the courage to let your winners run until you reach the logical conclusion of the investing thesis that prompted the initial investment. That requires not just tactical trading acumen, but a macro belief in a theme or regime that powers the asset’s long term returns.
TL;DR Hodler for a reason. Yea, but coming from the fella who instituted 100X leverage, come on. Remember those annoying Barts? Who was making them happen...it was THAT guy. BTW, he was hastily gotten rid off when the whole thing almost blew up in the March of 2020-what a coincidence. If they did not go offline, it could have happened (cascading liquidations). Agreed: the usual difference between talking the talk and walking the walk. Still an inspiring read though. |
