1  Bitcoin / Press / [2023-01-26] Goldman Sachs Described Bitcoin As Best Performing Asset of 2023 on: January 26, 2023, 11:29:42 PM
The financial group Goldman Sachs is known in the cryptocurrency community for historically taking anti-Bitcoin stances, however according to their year-to-date asset return report by the company, Bitcoin so far is the best performing asset of the year.

Furthermore the Bitcoin asset was compared to their other assets like S&P 500, real estate and so on which not only outperformed these asset classes, but by a huge margin of reaching 27% in returns compared to the second highest of "MSCI Emerging Markets" at 8%.

2  Other / Politics & Society / Why Would Anyone Be Against Self Defense? on: January 11, 2023, 04:10:23 AM
What is the rationale of those who want to make self defence illegal?

I get how a liberal could want social programs, since it's basically more money for them taken from someone else: Immoral but understood, more resources for your, less for someone else. But why is the first reaction of liberals in an altercation to criticise the person reacting to being assaulted and not the person starting the violence?

Do they just assume nothing bad will ever happen to them and thus can't empathize with someone being genuinely victimized? I can't see what they would gain from outlawing self defence. If anything, liberals are more likely to be assaulted since they tend to not workout and are more sensitive - see journos, they aren't even inclined to do petty crime and would benefit from people being sheepish about self defence. They would be the exact type of person a petty criminal WOULD target.
3  Other / Politics & Society / Environmentalists Should Be Against Inflation on: January 09, 2023, 04:51:46 PM
Consider inflation, what it actually is when you get to the meat and bone of the matter. It's a system which ultimately punishes people for saving and rewards them for consuming things in the here and now. This isn't a conspiracy or a hot take, the establishment says this themselves constantly and explicitly that inflation "stimulates the economy" which means they are creating a reward structure for consumers and punishment for savers.

This is a SYSTEMIC way of getting people to consume what they don't need. This should be the absolute number one concern of an environmentalist, yet you never hear a peep about inflation from environmentalists since they never really cared to begin with, it was all virtue signalling.

5  Other / Beginners & Help / How to Keep Your Crypto Safe - Crypto Security Checklist For Beginners on: January 04, 2023, 03:42:29 AM
Many people get their crypto stolen through hackers, thieves, scammers, keyloggers, viruses and more - here are some quick things you can do to make your Bitcoin and crypto bags much more safe.

  • Handle your crypto on a burner laptop which is only used for handling crypto wallets, this eliminates getting your crypto stolen by a trojan you may of downloaded.
  • Use mobile app 2fa to login to your centralized exchange accounts, NOT SMS 2fa which is vulnerable to sim swap attacks.
  • Store your seed phrase PHYSICALLY in a hiding place, write the seed phrase in code that only you understand so a thief can't do anything if he comes into contact with a copy
  • Don't tell randos you don't absolutely trust that you have x amount in crypto. Some loudmouths have gotten their crypto stolen from them at gunpoint by telling the wrong people they have crypto.
  • Install antivirus software on all of your devices - generally good practice anyway
  • Have backup devices of/and including your mobile device with 2fa apps
  • Split your crypto portfolio across multiple sources (cold wallet, web3, CEX, etc) that way if one source gets compromised you aren't ruined like people who had their life savings on FTX.
  • Cold wallets are your friend.

This should keep you safer than most people in cryptocurrency.  Smiley
6  Other / Politics & Society / Democrats pretend to be anti-war, republicans pretend to be anti-socialism on: January 02, 2023, 08:05:40 PM
One of the wildest things in politics is how neither side of mainstream politics actually does what their rhetoric is. Mainstream democrat politicians and their voters have a lot to say when it comes to criticizing the military industrial complex, yet not one democrat politician hasn't been a war hawk.

On the other hand, republicans are always criticizing the ideas and practicality of socialism and government control of the economy, yet not one republican president has ever reduced government spending. In short, no matter who you vote for, you are voting for more government control and less freedom - the only difference is the flavor of rhetoric you hear.
