~ too many questions ~

Later.
DYOR in the meantime, and I’ll come at night to spoon-feed you.

You were the one asking questions, in a very unspecific way. So feel free to spoon-feed elaborate at any time.

Oh no what happened?

We were told there would be a “flippening”.


https://x.com/80iqmindset/status/1719673005842792813

Yep, that 2.0 bullshit with stacking ruined everything.
For lovers of this shitcoin dreaming about a "Flippening" it really became a flippening... of their plot, in fact.

Just follow the steps and let us know if they pay you.

Today my account was unlocked and i can trade and withdraw, but the shitcoin I put for stake are still missing. I will update about this too.

I think that bitstamp is still a full legit exchanger, but on the internet is full of people unsatisfied or frankly scared by their very unpersonal approach ("we are working on this" is the only answer some people got after months of blocked account and after providing all requested info). Kraken seems to be a better option for European users nowadays.

Literally, an exchange is for exchange, not for storing assets.
At least, that's the way i'm using exchanges.

Kraken is a good alternative, maybe Coinwaste (pun intended), if you are able to accept the fees.
I don't know if a trustworthy exchange even exists, in the face of so much wealth in custody, i would trust none of them to keep my coins safu.
just my couple of cents...

EDIT: Look out for small balance converting capabilities when looking for exchanges to trade on. If you just buy/sell a few coins using fiat money, any exchange will do good.

OK, there must be a higher peak on the hourly. The last i could spot was $34.980, but this was on the way down already.
I assumed peak values also on the day, month etc. charts, but a closer look made me spot the error.
Additionally, i used to watch on cryptowat.ch, but it is no more  Sad

I read on crypto twitter today, that $38k should be unlocked, or a - but more unlikely - fall down to sub $30k.

yeah i might forgo my nap to watch this for a bit.

Are you even aware that researchers forgot to include Bitcoin in the list of common causes for sleep procrastination?!  Cheesy

EDIT: On Stamp, it didn't even break $35k, but Bitfinex, for example, BTC/USD almost reached $35.2k

There is no spirit, but there seem to be entities that aren't bound to spacetime, with any of them having a distance of zero to all the other ones, while filling the universe and providing informational transport capabilies, provoding something like the DNA to all forms of energy/matter.

Do these “entities” you claim have a spirit?
Basically you’re saying the same thing, only in the distorted vision of your handlers.
Define "spirit", then maybe i can answer your question.
Basically is pretty unprecise, and i'm not saying the same thing either.
There are similarities between "my" model and "your" model, but there are things like QE that prove "my" model true.
Which scientific contributions are supporting "your" model. Maybe you project "your" model onto my explanations, but this is exactly something that is so out of science as it can be. Remember, our biggest weakness are our emotions. A model based on emotions is virtual, to say the least.

Quote
Hard to grasp, but solves the problem of speed of light as upper limit, assumes energy "moving" with infinite speed.
But, but... Einstein said... there is nothing faster than light!

But but, Tesla proved him wrong, and things *can* travel faster than the speed of light.
#supressed.information
Please point me to sources. I admire Tesla quite a bit too, but in his late years he was more like the nutty professor than the realistic scientist.
The point is, he may have proved Einstein wrong in assuming there is no particle with less than zero mass, or energy without potential to create mass, or something undiscovered, but that is an extension to Einstein's model, again. Einstein assumed energy and mass as equivalent, and that rule may become obsolete
in the way of exploring quantum physics.

Quote
In fact, only entities with a mass of zero (photons) are able to reach lightspeed, but Quantum Entanglement can only work if electrons (for example) are able to communicate over infinite distance without any delay, which requires some kind of yet undiscovered entities to provide according functionality, and these entities have to exist everwhere in the universe, or even basically ARE the universe.

If you get over your “entities” illusion, we’re basically saying the same thing. Life, being alive, having consciousness.
Do you consider yourself an “entity”? - because you are. A very malicious one, but nevertheless.
#universe.is.alive
That depends on the definition of "alive". Do you consider energy as a form of life? Is energy "only" a requirement for life to exist? Is energy carrying information, and if yes, which kind of energy is able to do that. All entities, or objects, if you speak OOP, are made, or created, out of energy. But there must be some kind of information that tells energy what to do to "build" something like a hydrogen molecule - or vibrate in a specific frequency to enable it to transform into the higher level entity we commonly call "hydrogen atom".
Of course, i'm an entity, made of entities, made of entities, made of entities (...) ...



Quote
EDIT: Maybe a 4th dimension, which "time" was assumed to be, but to explain Quantum Entanglement, you have to invalidate time as a whole.

To quote my favourite gladiator: “what you do (feel or say) echoes throughout eternity time”
Are you not entertained? Tongue


I don't need no entertainment, i entertain myself.

EDIT: As of Tesla, did he even assume time as real? Because we all learned that time is needed for events to be able to unfold, but it seems, following more recent discoveries, that the illusion of time is created by events unfolding. And again, QE can't be happening if time would be real. There must be something very basic, allowing simultaneousness (is this even a correct word?) in every place of existence. This might be similar to the illusion of "spirit", but afaik "spirit" includes something like "will", and that may be easily misunderstood when the term "information" comes into play in the quantum world. So, maybe what you call "spirit" is in reality more someting like "essence", which is often found in spirtual theories. But then, in the latter, "essence" is unwilling, unknowing, but omnipresent and connecting, so a lot more identical to what the QE effect is describing.

EDIT: What's even more fascinating to me is that there is a real chance that the universe is somehow aware of our existence.

Of course it is, it’s called collective awareness - aka universal spirit - and we are all part of that, for better or for worse.


Uh, no. That's a completely different thing. The one thing is physics, the other thing is delusion.
There is no spirit, but there seem to be entities that aren't bound to spacetime, with any of them having a distance of zero to all the other ones, while filling the universe and providing informational transport capabilies, provoding something like the DNA to all forms of energy/matter.

No, it wasn't me who lost coins. I think a recent situation like this happened to either OutOfMemory or sirazimuth, IIRC. It can happen to anyone, and, let's face it, Bitcoin has radically changed the way we handle and protect our cash (of the digital variety, a.k.a. BTC). Even those of us who are very computer-literate can end up in situations like this, and you're right in that I've made several posts in the past emphasizing that fact.

.......

To  be clear, yes, I lost about half a bitcoin, about $200 in value at the time, (or something like that, I cant remember, 9 years ago) but it had nothing to do with being hacked.
I have never lost a single satoshi from a hack.
<redacted>
 Nuff said.

Yeah, i lost a ledger, but easily restored the keys using a new one.
And my first transaction was hijacked by malware. 0,1 BTC, early 2017.

Sunday OT:

One day (during the latest partial solar eclipse) I suddenly realized that the fact that Moon exactly blots out the sun is somewhat weird and is highly unlikely.
We just happen to live at the time when angular diameter of both the moon and the Sun are virtually identical.
https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/life-unbounded/the-solar-eclipse-coincidence/
Although it is exactly what is happening, the event itself has microscopic probability from all possible arrangements between the size of the planet satellites, the star, distances, etc, etc.
That made me think about other "unique" features of the realm about "right now":

1. First off, all universe parameters had to be just right to make stable atoms, galaxies, etc-that's a given. Our Universe is just one out of roughly 10^500 chances. Good enough!
2. The 'strange' triple alpha process that forms carbon in the stars (Hoyle state).  
3. Sun had to be formed after heavy elements already accumulated...almost 8 bil years after the Big bang...basically, we are 'late".
4. Humans appear on earth 4.7 bil years after the planet was born and the planet has a maximum of another 1 bil years to go before the biosphere is bound to be destroyed by the expanding Sun that would be transitioning to a red giant. So, we appeared within the last 20% of the planet's life.."late" again.
5. The Moon is larger that the satellite of the earth size planet should be theoretically with astronomers proposing (and basically proving) that the Moon was formed by the collision of the "initial" earth with a body the size of mars, roughly.
6. That collision probably evaporated the original water on the planet and resulted in Earth being drier that it would have been otherwise, with most water being brought by comets and asteroids.
7. It is entirely possible that the core rotation and magnetic field plus tectonic plates movement was also caused by that collision, which ought to be a very rare event.
8. We are here during the time when we can still see galaxies. Some time later...in fact, much later, other galaxies will be invisible to us.
9. We live at the age when computing became widespread. Being born a hundred years early and we would have missed it.
10. Being born as "you"-that's a biggie. Each human mating pair is capable of generating at least several dozen trillions genetic combinations, but here you are. Chances of winning a lottery are at least 100 thou times larger than that. Add to that your unique personal history that added to you being you.
11. We live during the age of bitcoin "discovery", so we could participate early, which is almost like having a golden ticket and/or winning a lottery (again).

TL;DR Sometimes I wonder about all this 'selection' mechanisms that resulted in "now", but then, it all depends on the number of "rolls".

Biodom peeking

But it's not that unlikely that the shadow of earth hits the moon: On every full moon the sun is almost directly behind the earth, when viewed from the moon. It just needs a little bit to cross the two ecliptic angles (moon-earth and earth-sun) and voila, the moon is hit by the core shadow of the earth, 154 times a century. There is also peripheral shadow (an "almost" hit), which hits the moon 88 times a century, and the dimensions are so big and the dynamics so static - remember that dyncamics had trillions of years to balance out within the dance of gravity - that this is working as precise as clockwork.

Going through your list above, there are more recent discoveries that take this some steps further, from omitting the real existence of time, which indeed fixed some unsolvable problems, to yet unexplored "particles" that flood the universe, even maybe multiverses, to form energy and matter, as well as interconnecting them and exchanging "information" between them - at timeless "speeds". The problem is granularity and how to detect these yet undefined "entities" - which mostly consists of guessing (modeling) and simulating, mainly based on data from CERN and HST/JWST.
Our reality is mainly a snapshot of the local result of universal (or multiversal) events, starting from day 0. Light (vision) is energy, sent across space. What we observe with telescopes is only the energy that was emitted from remote events (past realities) - so we don't look at things, we are looking at information which is forming a visual abstraction of what is (aka "god" - following more recent translations of "JHW").

I won't get on, because it always blows my mind doing so, too complex to be expressed using so little words. Anyway, we seem not to be made to decode universal being, since we are a subsidiary part of it all, so we should just try to live our lives, knowing - or assuming- there are a lot things going on out there which are too complex and hideous to be explored. We're just a grain of sand in the desert, and every time i take a telescope out in the backyard and capture photons originating from events so insanely big and far away, i remind myself of how small we are, and everything that seemed somehow "important" to me before - just disappears.

And yes, we are lucky as fuck to be here in this now in this place. Likely less than a once-in-a-universe coincidence.

EDIT: What's even more fascinating to me is that there is a real chance that the universe is somehow aware of our existence.

Well its here, financial privacy is officially a violation of the partiot act if this law addition passes.


Proposal of Special Measure Regarding Convertible Virtual Currency Mixing, as a Class of Transactions of Primary Money Laundering Concern

Quote
The term “convertible virtual currency” or CVC, means a medium of exchange that either has an equivalent value as currency, or acts as a substitute for currency, but lacks legal tender status.[74] Although Bitcoin has legal tender status in at least two jurisdictions, the term CVC includes Bitcoin for the purposes of this proposed rule.


https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/10/23/2023-23449/proposal-of-special-measure-regarding-convertible-virtual-currency-mixing-as-a-class-of-transactions

If this would actually pass and get activated, we have a bigger, underlying problem.
But stupidity is common, and politicians aren't immune to it. I think it needs a lot of stupidity to make the majority of decision/law-makers to actually assume CVC's as a actual violation of the PA. I mean, El Salvador's role as establisher of Bitcoin as legal tender should invalidate the projection this proposal is built upon.
Right?

EDIT: Missed the important part: mixing.
I agree with you, this could become a problem to privacy, because realistically the proposal would probably be accepted.

True. How could i not see this?!
(Count the knuckles!)

true, typically...but at some angles the joint between the two phalanges of the thumb can resemble a knuckle.
it's messed up for a general case...I agree...but at least it is not 6.

Yeah, just zoom in, you'll recognize the other details. My initial thought on this pic was "Photoshop", but i didn't zoom in to look closer, at that time.
I admit, i tried to position my hand, watching it in the mirror, to form a straight line of "knuckles" after reading your post  Grin


Well, I didn't even consider the possibility of it being AI-generated. I did a Google image search and got a single hit to some kind of social media page of a Japanese gal, that's full of AI-generated girls.

Knuckles/palm looks OK to me. Maybe borderline 6-fingered, but not clear enough. Doesn't in the least affect the overall hotness of the girl.

Not even questioning the hotness  Grin
But there are some more hints if you look closer. The shadow of the hair strand, different reflections in both pupils, shadow of the forearm is missing.
I'm absolutely drawn to details, you know. That's why i wonder that i missed the five straight-lined knuckles on the first view.

don't leave the WO victim to two trolls, will you?
It really IS time for a weekend pump.

There is an easy strategy for learning to live a happy life:

Whatever you do, think or speak about, if it makes you feel bad, just let it go.
Stop it, regardless of how important you think it is. You decide if you want to stay in that mood.
As long as one is in control of him/herself, it's done easily.
When you think about it, there's only one really important thing in life: it's you.
Would you want to make the most important person in life feel bad?
Honestly?

This is one of the most basic tools in the toolbox of a mental trainer.
Because it just works, and it works quickly.

Fun fact: In my mother language, people are commonly using the same term for "research" and "science".
We're not a very educated bunch of folks over here, but what makes it even worse is the fact that over 25% of them are superstitious (confirmed by research).

The Exposé (formerly known as The Daily Exposé)[3] is a British conspiracist and fake news website created in 2020 by Jonathan Allen-Walker.[1][2] It is known for publishing COVID-19 and anti-vaccine misinformation.[7]

The website became known internationally after Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro cited one of its articles in a speech falsely claiming that COVID-19 vaccines could cause AIDS,[3][2] and after Chinese state media outlets republished one of its articles which falsely claimed that COVID-19 was created by Moderna.[2][6]
