I have tested negative.
I still wear a mask in public 100% of the time out of common courtesy. It doesn't put me out in the slightest.
Face diaper nazi eh? Get a life dude.

...
I haven't been tested, but that means shit.
....

Ok dude, I'll just take pearl of wisdom from some genius blowhard in a bitcoin thead over any doctor's advice.

...
99% of the people I see around me and interact, on a daily basis - DON'T wear a fucking mask...

Fucking awesome, I don't live in Greece and won't be interacting with you so ask me if I care.

...
They do look like face diapers though, don't they?...

If you think so, fine.
I'll still wear one in public and if it makes your tongue wag, all the better.

Now if someone ordered me to wear a mask - or else, wouldn't I call that person a Nazi tell him to fuck off?

You can tell him to fuck his grandmother if you like, that's on you, also tells a lot about your character.
Like I said...

I liked your posts better in the FE thread....

They would be sources, but with a pretty low impact factor.

Anyway, here's a nice image that explains it in simple terms.

Luckily the people I bought most of my coins from have a lot more than me. Many of my early coins came from the folks at Decentral, the birthplace of Ethereum where their obscene profits from that sleazy scam made some of them billionaires. I guess I could have made a shitload if I'd jumped on their offer of buying into the pre-mine but then I'd have to live with myself.

<snip>

Now I'm past using ATMs (hopefully) and back to doing OTC business with devoted Bitcoiners. Hopefully no wrenches.

Back in 2015, I used to buy coins from ATMs (didn't yet have an account on an exchange). I remember I once wired $1100 to a friend who lived right next to one, and asked him to buy BTC for me and send me a photo of the QR code. He did. Later that day he called me and asked me whether he should also buy some coins. Of course I encouraged him and did an Andreas Antonopoulos-style lecture. He was excited. He wanted in. Until a few days later, when he called me and said he read on the net that Bitcoin was being used by criminals to launder money and was "no good". He even warned me against it and indirectly called me a "criminal supporter". He hasn't spoken about it ever since, but I see a bitterness in his face whenever we meet.

I guess many shop owners using Bitcoin ATMs in their shops do (did) it just for the rental of their floor spaces, they never really believed in Bitcoin. It was only in 2016-2017 that things got serious, but it was too late for most to get in. Well, we all now know that it wasn't really too late, but that's how it seemed to them, just like it felt in 2015 after MtGox.

Long story short, you can't have guarantees, you've got to risk some to gain some. With Bitcoin, being able to understand the tech behind it, and realizing its significance as electronic cash, gives you an advantage (a big advantage) over the clueless masses who just follow the media propaganda. For me, it was the understanding that production halves every four years (next was in 2016 at the time), so I just knew I had to own some coins before then. My only regret is not buying more during those early days.

Live and learn. And take risks. That's the lesson of all this.

I was blown away by a couple of bitcoin ideas (in addition to no third party control, etc.):

1. Emission curve
2. The fact that you can convert electricity into something that is essentially, money (or at least immediately convertible good), and it appeared to be legal.

Hodling idea came at least a year or two later.

Just looking at charts after the halving in 2016.

2 months after the halving the price was only up $50 vs the halving price (July 2016). We only really started to grind up in around November. The chart looks really similar to what we’re currently seeing, basically sideways for a significant period.

We should start moving up slowly through the gears, perhaps starting in September (if this cycle mirrors the last one).

Yeah, I remember watching one of Andreas Antonopoulos' videos on YouTube. A very old one.

I don't think I slept that night.

Discovering Bitcoin was, for me, one of those rare moments when you come to realize that this is something that will change the world. Something revolutionary. And we are all part of it. I'm certain that in several decades from now, Bitcoin will be mentioned in the history books as a major part of the "information revolution", or the "monetary revolution", or whatever the historians want to call it.

I know most of us are in it for the profits (and it's understandable), but this is beyond getting "fuck you" rich status. This will change the entire world for the better. This is so much bigger than any of us.

Now this is the kind of hopium I like to read...
https://cointelegraph.com/news/paypal-dabbling-in-crypto-could-make-btc-a-mainstream-payment-option

The most obvious implication of PayPal’s rumored expansion is adoption — if a financial service with 325 million active users starts listing digital assets, it is likely to make crypto more viable in the eyes of the financial mainstream. Mashinsky argued that it will consequently drive the price of BTC and Ether (ETH) up significantly, “as the scarcity of the coins will play a big part when adoption comes.”

I've had paypal try to force kyc on me twice and twice I told them to fuck off and after a few months they just unlocked my account with no reason given, so having that huge number of users is what really matters to them.

Once they make a move to get full on into crypto they will be coinbase 2.0 before you know it!

Did you go over some limit? I doubt they would bother with KYC for a $10 payment.

Paypal are a strange bunch.
They ask you anytime they like out of the blue and try getting you to do stuff like add a bank acct every chance they can get.
Centralization is coming to crypto-town. So buckle up dorothys, we aint in Kansas anymore!

People using pants as an example of why wearing masks is normal. They don't understand that I have never fully accepted that wearing pants should be required either.


Also...leprosy exists. If a leper touches you, you will catch it. That is why everyone in ancient times walked around in full plate mail.

If you are not walking around in a full suit of armor you can catch leprosy and eventually die. Let that little fact sink in.
