Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[shahzadafzal]

And we (TINW) need to stop thinking in terms of dollars.  We (editorial “we”) know that 1 BTC = 1 BTC; but what is a dollar worth?  A dollar must be valued in sats.  We (royal “we”) therefore decree by fiat that henceforth, we shall quote sats/USD as we observe dollar sell walls.

Bitcoins value should be measured in Gold instead.

1 BTC ~ 942.322 gm
1 BTC ~ 33.239 oz

“One of the most obvious similarities between gold and Bitcoin is the cap on the quantity available. Whereas fiat money can be printed into infinity, both gold and Bitcoin have specific restrictions on the amount that can be introduced into the economy. For Bitcoin, there is a 21 million bitcoin limit, As for gold, the yearly new supply is limited to around 2,500 tons.”

Acres, hectares, feet, pounds, ounces, gallons, furlongs, chains, barrels... What is wrong with you guys? Are you into BDSM?

Just use meters and grams. On their own, squared or cubed, and prefix with micro, milli, centi, kilo when needed. Simple. Easy.

And don't get me started on screw thread sizes. I had to 3D-print an imperial-sized nut the other day, which drove me crazy!

The Swedish unit of tunnland was officially surveyed and standardized in the 1630s, and set to 14,000 Swedish square ells, i.e. 56,000 Swedish square feet. One tunnland was divided into 56 kannland, 32 kappland, 6 skäppland or 2 lopsland. How is that hard to understand?

Edit: I wonder what tunn, kann, kapp, skäpp and lops mean. Must have to do with size I guess... And, are the double letters at the end necessary to join them with land? The OCD in me...

Added it, thanks!

But a hectare is a metric unit ... its 10,000 sq.m (100m x 100m)

Yes, but it's non-SI. And the name is just off...

Edit: Actually yes, you're right, strictly speaking, hectare should not be on my "acres..." list. I've never really used it, or ever heard it being used, so I immediately binned it with the other weird imperial units. But it is indeed a metric (albeit non-SI) unit.

Still, meters/metres and grams (and also liters/litres), together with their powers and multipliers are sufficient and clear IMHO. The imperial units are probably still used due to tradition and will likely die off in the future.

Hey found out acers is called "morgen" in german. Which has the same meaning as "tomorrow or morning" in our language

The double letters have to do with the pronunciation of the vowel in front of them, if the vowel is short the consonant afterwords is (usually) doubled.

Yes, they are smaller units of measure. A kanna for example is 2,617 liters according to the rules of 1665.
1 kanna was divide in to (for fluids) 1/48 tunna (barrel) = 2 stop = 8 kvarter = 32 jungfrur (virgins) (also called ort).
The unit was also used in Germany https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanne_(Einheit)

And skäppa is also a measure (German Scheffel, English bushel) known from the bible "candle under a bushel"

Here's some more swedish units for you to meditate over.
1 Foder = 2 Pipa (pipe) =  4 Oxhuvud (oxenhead) = 6 Fat or åm (barrel) = 12 Halvfat (halfbarrel) = 24 Ankare (anchor) = 48 Halvankare (halfanchor) = 360 Kanna = 942,12 liter

The word kanna is by the way still used today but now it just means pitcher.

And tunna means barrel, so tunnland originally meant the area of land that a farmer could seed with a barrel of grain seeds.

Edited.

that limit will be increased quite a bit in about 10 - 20 years.

golden asteroids mined by Musk in partnership with Nasa will make gold as common as copper.

Thanks for that. Much appreciated! It's amazing how each country/culture/civilization has created different units based on their special needs and objects of reference.

Which leads us to a more pressing question:

How many tunnland of land does Bob own?

Well, since a tunnland and acre is about the same he has about the same amount in tunnland.

Yeah, I Googled it. Tunnland is known as a "Barrel of Land". Apparently, the name tunnland originates from the area of fields one could seed with a barrel of grain seeds. What an ingenious way to measure land!
