It's a pity, those pods look pretty snazzy. .....
....Futuristic pod homes (pictured in the above rendering)...
Yeah ooookay... then the real deal is a link showing one (priced at $1.5 million?!...seriously?) going cattywampus on launch. Doesnt look quite as fancy as those cgi images floating in perfectly calm blue waters. I get a kick out of the land ones too. (because "they are considering building them on land too") Poking up above the beautiful canopy of trees in the rainforest sitting on a large pole with an elevator or something. Seems legit... (sorry to piss on the parade, but that's just me bros... reality check etc...) Well this one is real anyway....

looks like @elwar had a bad day $1.5 Million Floating Home Prototype Sinks Into The Water Just As It’s Unveiled.
Three floors, a landing pad for drones, a bunch of electronics - all this is in the houseboat. At first, everyone admired the unique idea, but as soon as the house left the pier, it immediately bent over and went to the bottom.
The SeaPod, builty by Panama-based technology company Ocean Builders, is meant to be a self-sustaining, eco-restorative home that floats above the waves. source: https://www.reddit.com/r/ThatLookedExpensive/comments/xwxlk8/15_million_floating_home_prototype_sinks_into_the/Looks to me like it probably bottomed out and tipped as it needs to sink a bit as its weighed down to keep its stability. Not designed to balance on its bottom. i saw a reddit comment that said the pod has an active ballast system or something with pumps and they continually balance the system to keep it level. apparently one pump failed somehow. Hmm, if true not building redundancy into a critical system like that is poor engineering on its surface.

This should not have happened. Hell, his old seastead was at least stable enough and habitable. If a failed pump could cause a SeaPod to sink, I wouldn't want to even be near it, let alone live in it in the middle of the ocean. The design should have been "open-loop stable", meaning that it should have been able to stay afloat and be stable, even on complete loss of power. I think Elwar is a dreamer, but with poor technical/engineering skills, and thus easily being manipulated and persuaded into funding poorly designed projects. Even so, kudos to him for being brave enough to jump into deep water (literally).

I think these are real... and probably cheaper than $1.5 million added bonus... they float at angle less than 45 degrees...

Thanks Putin, Joe Biden, Zelensky, Truss, Rutte, Macron, Schulz, Von Der Leyen, NATO, Fed, BOE, ECB etc... Top job!

I am so excited for the next bull run and I am checking price every hour waiting for the day when I become a bitcoin millionaire. I called $22k, we went $17k. I am now calling $180k for next peak, I hope Bitcoin CEO provides me with much more than that. Also If I die before that day, let my family know I was part of this awesome journey.
