Let's hope whomever mines it is kind enough to return it. It's been done before. Why should they? seriously. BTC is personal financial sovereignty: this comes with responsibility and accountability. I see no point giving up profitability to compensate stupidity (or bad UX choices, or whatever). Harsh, but fair (this is a literal translation of an Italian saying, my broken English cannot find an idiomatic equivalence).

I lease my Mercedes to be honest, I like to drive a new car because I’m a snob. No worse investment (ok maybe BCH or BSV are worse ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ) than buying a brand new car yourself, as soon as you drive it off the forecourt it starts losing money. Not many people own a car any way, they have finance on it which isn’t much better than leasing. I suppose you have the car fully paid off at the end as an asset but then it’s old & lost loads of value any way. Just my opinion though. I will concede that cars are an expensive habit. I have owned cars since I was 15. Admittedly, my first few cars were not very good cars, but still they are also expensive to maintain. Regarding buying new cars, and especially luxury cars, they tend to lose the vast majority of their value in the first three years, so if you buy three year old cars, they might still be like new (depending on how they were driven, of course), but have already done their most dramatic depreciation. By the way Toyotas and Hondas don't tend to depreciate as much as Mercedes and BMWs.

Anthropogenic climate change may or may not turn out to be significant, but the dystopian cesspool we are creating is very, very real.

@JayJuanGee @ LFC_Bitcoin @bitserve I had a choice last year that should I buy a car or house. I invested in property and reinvesting remaining money in more important things. If everything works out fine in the next 5-10 year or so then, will buy Car with Driver I am very happy with my under $100 bicycle and other than that I have my old "Royal Enfield classic 350" for road trips.

You usually can’t go wrong investing in bricks & mortar. It’s probably what I’ll do if/when bitcoin moons (buy lots of houses & start a property management company or something) otherwise I’ll become an alcoholic or a drug addict or something wandering around with nothing to do all day ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Hey WO brothers (cunts, pricks, flat-earthers & ballerinas). Had a very busy party weekend, friends coming in for the 3 day carnival event. Drugs & alcohol hit the usual yearly ATH. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Sobering up & trying to pull myself together. BTC seems to be shaking off weak hands, getting ready for the $4k smash-through. Had all my orders filled out & eventually bought another whole coin ~1.15 BTC. Also made a decent profit of ~0.3 BTC on a pumping shitcoin last week. Last but not least, a couple of hetairas discovered the world of crypto. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Life is good. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I might be stating the obvious, but there are some locations in which a car is very practical and also can be a kind of livelihood enabler. In other places, you don't really need a car.... Of course, if BTC does another 10x or even 30x, then there could be several WO participants who might be considering various ways to spend their surplus value, and cars are fun and they do signal a level of status, if you don't mind showing some status.

Seems that ledger's wallets are not secure either. That's why I love paper wallets, especially if encrypted they are pretty hard to hack ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

However, opening a Gov liquor store is a good idea ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I tried to get a license for a liquor store with my friends when I was in my early 20s but didn't have that kind of money and contacts. Humans population keep increasing. Limited Bitcoin: checked House-property: Always a hot talk Food: Everyone wants more and necessary for all of us. Sex is needed too for Humans, but I am not into opening any sex-joint in this life. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I might be stating the obvious, but there are some locations in which a car is very practical and also can be a kind of livelihood enabler.

Yes, in the first highlighted situation it's completely understandable and very practical but in second mention its depends on an individual, not wrong and not right at the same time.

Not good, at all. I don’t see why people don’t keep their coins on a paper wallet or on a machine with Bitcoin QT that’s used for nothing apart from storing bitcoin. This kind of shit happens all the time.

Depends in what context, Tom Hanks had it all in the film ‘Cast Away’ in my opinion. Living off the land in beautiful nature. At times I wish I could do that. People are overrated, I love being on my own.

Fourth-generation farmer here. Underground farming? Not gonna happen, unless there is an extinction-level event. It takes more than space. The temperature is certainly constant, but at some stages the plants will do better if it's warmer. The realities of getting heat, light and water in needed quantities greatly outweigh the benefits. Underground caverns also (mostly) don't have appropriate soil, though hydroponics could be considered.
"Real" farming beyond hobby gardening is going to take machinery to plant and harvest (at the least). Currently that is all internal combustion tractors and combines, fuel exhaust will be a problem underground.
