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

I did not think you were insulting blacks or gays, but I am a white 66 year old baby boomer so as JJG says what the fuck do I know.

You made a good point once or twice.

It's probably because of how westerners use gas station toilets.

Now I am starting to appreciate that this thread is "going down hill."

But what is it?

Are "we" actually supposed to read to find out?

Thanks...interesting.

Upon an initial read, here are some nuggets: they distinguish between "payment stablecoins" and "endogenously collaterized stablecoins".
obviously, USDC/USDT fits into cat 1 and cat2 is like infamous 'almost dead' Luna. Cat 1 can only have cash, 90 day Treasury bills, deposits with Fed reserve and 7 day repurchasing agreements for 90 day bills backing it (at least 1:1). Another interesting point: deposits of payment stablecoins are deemed as legally belonging to a person, NOT to the institution which holds them. Even more interestingly, if a payment stablecoin issuer goes bankrupt, stablecoin owners have first dibs on remaining assets (their rights are higher than anybody else).

On a more sombre note, stablecoins are NOT covered by FDIC and it is expressly forbidden telling customers otherwise. BTW, the issuance of new "endogenously collaterized" stablecoins is prohibited for 2 years under moratorium, but current are  grandfathered in. Did not see a part if current "payment stablecoins" (like USDC/USDT) are grandfathered in or not-the doc it too long. Maybe someone else can pinpoint this part.

Obviously, Wall Street wants to "play" with stablecoins, but, personally, I don't see much need for them now, especially when fast payment rails would be established soon. Perhaps, stablecoins is a way for banks to get back into the payments (after they were effectively cut off by the FedNow system).

Oh?

Biodom to the rescue.

im doing fine btw...

lmao

If you are Adam.. you went a little coo-coo for coco puffs.. to my recollection... and sure we could revisit some of those olen days.... to see if we might get anywhere from those times versus these times.. and many of us made a lot of mistakes, but we ONLY have now to consider whether or the extent to which we might take some corrective actions... or what we are able to recover in terms of where we have been, where we are and where we might plan to go..

bother, we haven't seen nothing yet.... 32k is a new beginning; starting <2 weeks from now.

crazy how times have changed... and yet here we are... amazing.

Sure.... it's been a crazy 6 years.. (right around the time that you started going a bit loonie.. if that might be you, Adam.. )... and even richieT has somewhat come around, but he seems to have had not fallen as far as some of the big blocker nutjobs.

[edited out]

Its not much tougher to read than one of your long winded posts.

Actually I see a attack vector in there that I'm waiting for others to notice.

Maybe ask GPT with the "petertodd" token to ELI5 for those of you using that.

Now I am starting to appreciate that this thread is "going down hill."

I think it’s a show of confidence that holders are happy we’re in the upswing of this 4-year cycle and don’t give a fuck about the price until it’s time to sell. That, or toilet humor is ageless and something we all can enjoy. I think a thread on westerners using toilets in unique ways might be necessary for entertainment purposes.

I’m just glad people aren’t debating whether it is time to sell now or hold until six figures. That would be even more ridiculous.
