WTF?  No wonder I don’t vote.  Now, I needn’t feel bad about being officially outnumbered by the bears irrationally exuberant dollar-bulls who expect for the U.S. dollar ever to again exceed 0.0001 BTC in value.

WTF?

250 btc buy wall on stamp @10550

sorry for off-topic

Thanks.  I’ll save that for everybody who ever mentions, among other things, the American reality-TV “election” show—about which I was working on a P&S meta-complaint, when I delved into a minor tangent on Antifa.

Wow, are you serious? That's a bit bigger than a seastead. Is it this actual one that you are refitting to be bitcoin-oriented?



Sounds like an interesting venture, Elwar. Congrats! Any timeshare presentations we can attend to check it out for a few nights free?

I seriously worry about being able to "cash out" when "fuck you" rich. I fear that, by that time, all the cameras, guns, machetes, rusty pipes and what have you, will be pointing at us HoDLers, even going so far as to label us criminals, DPR v.2 (or is it v.3?), or some other "guilty-until-proven-innocent" accusation. It all depends on how "accepted" Bitcoin will be at that point. And, as you know, timescales in Bitcoin time are very short, meaning that we'll know quite soon. It's all good to imagine an ideal world where TPTB have accepted and even endorsed Bitcoin, but I don't think this will be an easy battle. We may win, but there will be blood.

Of course this "cashing out" may not even be necessary, if things play out in Bitcoin's favour, and BTC (or satoshi, or whatever fraction of a satoshi results from a 2nd layer solution, should 1 BTC > $1M) ends up being usable in buying everyday goods and services. This would be an ideal situation, in which BTC's intrinsic value stays in the BTC realm and we directly use it to survive (food, shelter, Lambos, hookers, blow, the usual necessities). But, somehow, I don't think it will be that easy. Not when the establishment sees their power taken away. They won't surrender without a fight.

My advice is to be prepared for any possible outcome. Personally, I'm more exposed to BTC than I am to more traditional investments, but I can surely survive (and ever enjoy the occasional little pleasures—but nowhere near "fuck you" rich status) without touching my BTC. I just follow the "invest what you can afford to lose" motto, while at the same time supporting and firmly believing that Bitcoin will succeed.

In short, as Bitcoin's value is rising, my feelings are bittersweet. Sweeter than bitter, of course, but there's always that aftertaste you get when chewing a dirty piece of paper...

(...)

Alcohodl, it is ok to get fkn rich due to years of hardened bitcoin hodl. you don't need to be scared. you earned it and folks will admire you for it. I doubt that bitcoiners will have to fear getting robbed more than the casual millionaire next door.

you deserve it because you went down the rabbit whole and put money in some magic internet money shit when everyone laughed about it. you helped this revolution get ignited, you carried the torch in a critical time of its existence. when it was vulnerable.

the bitcoin KI will not forget you and will reward you royally.

it will be easy. the difficult times were the gut wrenching multiyear bears. the next difficult times are now. but the future is bright, bro.

and.. how do you sleep with less than 90% bitcoin exposure?

Wall Observer Meta Post!

This is a Monthly post, so it will consider the merits sent during the month of September.
Consequently I had to wait for the last merit dump, that included the last day of the month.

Merit analysis based on @LoyceV merit file: http://loyce.club/Merit/merit.all.txt
Merit updated to September, 30th, 2020 23:59:59 UTC

Total merits sent on WO:     55,9996
Monthly Merits sent on WO: 1,662 (-661 vs previous month)
Merited Users: 752 (+3 vs previous month)
Meriter Users: 597 (+9 vs previous month)

WO Merits to be in the top 100: 80 (+1 vs previous month)

First Time Merited Users on the WO:

Code:

1.Xinarae*                   6
2.~Money~                    3
3.oprahwindfury              1
4.megadeth                   1
5.icopress                   1
6.Eureka_07                  1
7.Capanatlax                 1
8.Barbut                     1

Welcome on the thread chaps!

After the very good month of August, September was a little bit lazier! Don't worry Gang, 1BTC is still 1 BTC!
We have more users! This is good.

On top of the chart @Last of the V8's and @El Duderino_ keep battling for top position! The merit race is very tight and so we have once again a new King of the hill! Once Again @Last of the V8's took the top for only 1 (one!) merit!

@El Duderino_ extended his lead on the equally important chart of most generous senders, topping the monthly chart. I think he had quite of a backlog and the flattened the gas this month! I think it's clear also from the negative balance chart: @El Duderino beated his last month's fresh record with another impressive stamp!

WO is still the place to be!

MONTHLY sMERITS BALANCE

Code:

SMerits Balance=Received Merits/2-Sent Merits

Positive Balance means an user has been increasing sMerits on the WO thread, while negative numbers means the users has sent more merits on WO than received.
Negative numbers are possible or because he has been generous this week because he has been greedy past weeks (so only temporary imbalance), or because he has hoarded sMerits on other threads spending them on WO thread, or because he's a merit source.

Still fixing glitches here and there, I am using this to get better at data management (errors are mine).
Thank you @LoyceV for the merits file.

EDIT: some quirks in the data due to "someone" deleting posts, once again. IT's now sorted, I think!

^ Got yourself a vacant cruise ship (conveniently already registered in a tax haven)?

MS Satoshi
Oh yes, I bought a cruise ship
The Crypto Cruise Ship

Wow, are you serious? That's a bit bigger than a seastead. Is it this actual one that you are refitting to be bitcoin-oriented?


Sounds like an interesting venture, Elwar. Congrats! Any timeshare presentations we can attend to check it out for a few nights free?

Yep, that is a render of the actual ship we purchased (which we are not allowed to name) refitted with our logos.

245 meters long, 777 cabins.

Cabins starting at $25,000. The auction for the rooms starts November 5th.

We'll be accepting bitcoin at all businesses on the ship.

I was rereading part of Taleb's book Antifragile last night, and realized that Bitcoin would be a perfect investment for a Taleb-style Barbell Strategy (for investment holdings, BTC part of the high-risk-high-return end).  Rather than repeat what I wrote, here is the thread I started:
