BlackRock hops on bitcoin bandwagon with new Coinbase tie-up.After years of resisting, the world’s largest asset manager has finally taken the plunge into crypto in a substantial way. BlackRock, which oversees $10 trillion in assets, is partnering with publicly traded Coinbase to provide its institutional clients with access to cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin is the first digital asset being offered through the partnership, according to a blog post Coinbase, the most popular crypto exchange in the U.S., released on the matter today. BlackRock’s Aladdin investment management platform will offer connectivity to Coinbase Prime to offer crypto trading, custody, prime brokerage and reporting capabilities to shared clients.
“Common clients of Aladdin and Coinbase will be able to manage their bitcoin exposures alongside their public and private investments for a whole-portfolio view of risk,” BlackRock wrote in an announcement. Holy goodness. That either means we are the new rich elite, or that we are totally fucked. I am leaning towards fucked, but... (or should it read "but, fucked?") this seems a fit for both entities... https://www.vice.com/en/article/epzxj4/pig-breathe-through-anus-studyPigs Can Breathe Through Their Buttholes and So Could You, Scientists Say
Pink, fleshy, and round, the anus has a lot in common with the mouth and is every bit as important.
But the similarities don’t just stop there. Buttholes can also help animals breathe, new research suggests.
A team of scholars in Japan has found that pigs can absorb oxygen through the anus, in studies exploring treatment for people with respiratory conditions.

Returned from a week vacation in Zeeland. Hired a condo near the North Sea. Barely used the internet during that time. Fishing, beach walks (with dogs), boat trip, quality conversations with a glass of wine in the evening and -what i loved- jogging on the beach early in the morning. Empathizing with nature environment cleared my mind from daily bullshit, it has positive cognitive and mental health benefits. It's actually a personal obligation for all people to do that few times a year. ------------------------------------------------ Hubble vs Webb Cartwheel Galaxy. At this scale and resolution, the images are both the same, just that the reddish pic at the end of the morph shows more h-alpha content (distant nebulas and galaxies) in foreground and background. Or was it some kind of joke i didn't get? how about now? ........ quite significant difference from what I can see... remember one is dust and visible light the other in the infrared seeing the heat distribution and the expansion filaments of a image offers incredible insight into stellar formation theory JWST is a game changer

My first impression (even after glancing at those linked news releases) is that seems to be like a win for that fucktwat scammer Craig Wright. If Wright even received £1 as nominal damages, then that ruling seems to have also precluded McCormack from collecting legal fees (and/or punitive damages from Wright) in regards to either Wright's frivolous lawsuit or the fact that the Wright twat had submitted false evidence to the court in support of such frivolous claim. It could have been worse, but still something does not seem proper/fair/just about the ruling. its probably the best outcome possible aside from dismissal basically the Court saying yes...he was most likely defamed but hes a liar and probably deserved it any future litigation will be hampered by this...win win id think

Even if you don't get rich, just being your own boss and having control over your life puts you as you said at a much better place. If the business is something you are passionate about, the hours and effort won't seem like work. The satisfaction gained from running your own business sees many continuing to work well past normal retirement ages, while for 9 to 5 employees retirement cannot come soon enough.
>>>If the business is something you are passionate about, the hours and effort won't seem like work.<<< Mark Twain once said, "work is what a fellow is obliged to do". If you treat your business as a hobby, it's not work. >>>The satisfaction gained from running your own business sees many continuing to work well past normal retirement ages, while for 9 to 5 employees retirement cannot come soon enough.<<< And then when employees retire, they don't know what to do with themselves and the stress ages them quickly. Most businesses have a way of winding down naturally, so retirement is less abrupt. ____ Edit: Thanx Toxic for my 3000th merit. It was a while coming. +2 WOsMerits well earned my friend...cheers...here is to the next three thousand

So i got two scenarios in mind:
1. Bitcoin upity getting rejected in the $24k to $25k area, correcting a bit before further up moves. 2. Bitcoin goes up to $26k-$27k before correcting short term.
WO traders, any opinion(s) on this?
We just fly +10 WOsMerits

About to get very bullish by the end of the week by the looks of it. Short-term - 4hr and daily chart - don't look so hot right now. But the Weekly is finally starting to tick the right boxes for a trend reversal. With the Weekly RSI due to close outside of oversold territory this week ( bucket list criteria for a Bitcoin low) this would likely generate enough confidence for reclaiming the 200 WMA next week (if not also this week): Many still think this rebound is a fake-out. What they usually forget is that EVERY trend reversal looks like a fake-out until it's not, so that's why it looks like one The weekly candle is currently at +9%, otherwise the biggest weekly increase since March (4 months ago), slightly more than early July's +8% move from $19K lows. A bullish weekly close could lead to another week of consolidation like in mid-July, but otherwise with RSI leaving oversold conditions and moving above the 200 WMA I see much more liklihood of bullish continuation with a 10%+ candle in order to re-test $25K.
In summary, a bullish close this week (further confirming a low) = good chance of a 10-20% move to the upside next week, to $25K to $28K. We've already had 4 weeks of consolidation now, it's time to move on. I don't even think this is that bullish a consideration, I'm simply talking about another ~10% move to the upside at minimum, with the possibility of a monster green +20% candle. when I look at the chart...all i can think about is that there is $45kish worth of dip overhead anyway...waves across the pool shown by previous cycle long fibs and arbitrary doodles stack sats and dyor W stronghands
