Getting close to thinking of taking a little profit in the form of 100 acres of prime forested property with 1500 feet of lake frontage, ten minutes from a major hospital and about an hour and a half from downtown Toronto. Under 23 bitcoins at current prices.



Thank you Bitcoin.

Do it!
Peace and serenity now is more important than pie in the sky, especially when we are not there (in the future).

Now is actually months away. This is just the land. I'd still have to build a house, although in the spring I could still drop a trailer on the land for weekend use.

The big problem is converting my coins into dollars and paying capital gains taxes. I don't have (nor want) a bank account. Luckily I have one paper wallet (my largest) which can be traced to my identity, containing about 30 coins. Hopefully that will cover it.

Great...a race between the Canadian RE appreciation and btc.
My money is on btc, but we already know that  Cheesy
That said, I am envious as canadian weather, especially in the summer, is closer to my liking than 100F in Houston.
Most likely I would go for WA or OR, though, as I can stay in Canada only for 6mo straight (although it is probably enough).
pine or spruce>palm (in my book)

There should be plenty of canuck mosquitos next to that lake in the summer...    Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

JJG:  thank you for the invitation to have another go at calling the top.  However having gotten it wrong once (and very happy to be wrong), I do try to avoid making the same error twice in a row.

Hahahahaha

You, hairybairy, are "too smartie" for your own good. #nohomo

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

The demand for cabins was nil. Even with the lowest prices we could possibly offer and break even, nobody wanted to live on it.

While I'm sympathetic with the whole seasteading idea and I respect you for standing up and actually trying to do something rather than enjoying your likely riches, this is the critical bit, as several posts have already pointed out.

The prices you quoted ("starting from" - which seems to threaten much higher numbers) weren't that high in themselves, but that would only get you an inner cabin - no sea view. Basically, a closet to sleep in and not much more.

But the real issues come when one actually considers the reality of living there. Maintenance expenses that look like a real menace. Who's going to pay for the fuel, the food, the cleaning? Rhetorical question: me of course. I'm not sure the "only BTC accepted" policy was expressely stated by you, but it's as likely as not, and it doesn't look good to an oldschool hodler. Would it have been just crappy fiat - well, maybe, who knows. But my cornz? OMG nooo!

Imagine having to splurge btc for every drink. Maybe for plain water, too... with the monopoly market that inevitably ensues on such a closed, isolated community. Mostly consisting in millionaires, go figure. Scary as hell for the small fish.

I won't even mention the risk of having dinner table neighbors that engage in endless, unsolicited tirades. Oops, I just did! (j/k)

And with the hard rules about living onboard - rules usually made and enforced by the captain, not the stakeholders, there's the sizable risk of imaginary freedom turning into perpetual obedience. The thing we were trying to run away from in the first place.

This guy happily and smilingly said it months ago -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELP2EFVOOYc

People still believe this is a natural virus lol... And of course blame the protesters... Fucking idiots! You love to be locked like an animal for years right? Its all just a huge hoax to sell Bills vaccine and make his vision come true. Genocide by vaccination... He said it in 2010 "500.000.000 humans on this planet are enough".

I still believe Covid-19 is a Chinese lab made virus, released to weaken/wreck the U.S economy so they can push their agenda to take over to be number 1.

maybe the truth is in between? they tweaked SARS-CoV to get a more contagious SARS-CoV-2?

maybe it was an accident to release it?

so WHO has still no access to Wuhan. WTF is China for an country?

Nah. Why should they "tweak" a virus? (which is technically hard to achieve, with absolutely not calculable results, delivering an astronomically bad risk-reward ratio).
Sars-Cov2 was found in blood samples from march 2019 in italy, the wuhan outbreak was octobre 2019 (iirc). Does not compute.
Afaik some US scientists team was allowed for research in wuhan (heard it on the radio while driving, may have been a WHO team as well).

We welcome beliefs that seem to fit our mindset, be careful which information you trust, it probably tells more about yourself than anything else. You can use this for introspection, on the other hand.

Elon Musk tweet discussion  Grin



How such a progressive, futuristic person such as Elon Musk could *not yet* be onboard with Bitcoin treasuries full tilt is completely beyond me.

I could say the same for such companies as Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon, etc.

Methinks that powerful people have kept them dissuaded for years now.

the epicness of that twitter conversation is hard to grasp. them billionaires are coming.

I am thinking we go past our pages  count very soon.

I predict 28356 as the number.

That might be a good poll question(@Infofront - #nohomo), especially if the BTC price starts to close in upon the page count...   So a poll question would maybe give ranges of numbers in which page parity might be met..

Sure, one of the problems with page parity and if there were any bets upon it, it could be manipulated... but anyhow, sure page parity could even come this month.. we only have 11 more days in the month.

We also know that reaching page parity does not necessarily presume it to be sustainable.. and many of us might recall (or be able to search back in WO thread history) that page parity was briefly reached and exceeded only for times during one day in December 2017 (at the peak of the December 2017 price our page count was around 19,200-ish.  We can see that from subsequent deletion of posts, the December 17, 2017 peak is around 18,700 pages currently)

Nha, i rather stay updated so i can anticipate the situation better not by reading like MSN.


Belgium, Italy, Netherlands, Czechia, France, Ireland, Austria and Germany suspending flights and train arrivals from England.

Countries responding fast. Kuwait, Isreal, Bulgaria, Sweden, Romania, Luxembourg also banning flights from the UK.

Border closed for UK travelers entering Belgium for 24 hours while deciding what to do.

Mutated virus also discovered in The Netherlands, South-Africa, Italy and Denmark.

Stay save.

consider, every bitcoiner is still an early bird in the history of BTC.
Normal people don't grasp this, they finally will when it's too late, as always.
Remembering you of my brother in law, hwo said he should have got in when btc was $400, but now it's no more worth it. When i offered him to pay him with bitcoin (@ $9k) he refused, throwing that narrative out again and adding that BTC will never ever go over $10k again. He will say such things at $50k, at $100k and probably at $1m as well.
Elon can make this decision within days or weeks. What a great sunrise  Cool

Completely over-exaggerated.
It would be easy to test for sars.cov2 at (a safe) check-in. On destination airports: No test? Quarantine for 10 days.
Banning flights is way more expensive.
When you vote for idiots, these are the results.

I'm feeling kinda degenerate, and thinking of buying some more PPBTC. Have fiat laying around in that account. Ugh.

EDIT: Yeah, just scooped some $100 dip of PPBTC. Feelin' kinda dirty. Again.
