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

[OutOfMemory]

Lately i'm thinking about DEX, came across some tweet mentioning THORchain, any bro got some experience with this?

IIRC it was hacked and then the devs ignored the hacker explaining how to fix it and then it got hacked again, so yeah go ahead and put funds on there.

Thanks for the tip  
But nah....

OFFTOPIC:

One of the worst captures till date. I'll spare the long story, but in the end the object was dimmed by very, very light fog, focus was off slightly, strong horizontal noise bands appeared out of nowhere, which i still have to research.

At least the stars are round and the halos are centered, so telescope repair was successful and polar alignment sufficiently precise

UK inflation 11.1%
 

Surprised they can keep official figures that low to be honest.
"Households are paying 88.9% more for gas and electricity than a year ago." 

Maybe we also need a successful wrecking ball "inflation reduction act" filled with mandatory green rules, and forgive student debt, or at least promise to do that just before an election. 10% for the big guy. Or should that be 11%.
 

basically, keep the money printing going....

congrats on new status!... "Use LN" was a sly joke

EDIT: at times like this.. avoid sending on layer 1... i sent those pending transaction (Opened new LN Channels) 1 hours before the mempool started climbing.... last 3 days have been very slow on block confirmation.. could be miners shutting down rigs?...

Chief Executive Officer Derar Islim admitted that withdrawal requests exceeded current liquidity at Genesis Global Capital, the lending arm; but made it clear that Genesis's spot and derivatives trading and custody businesses “remain fully operational.”

The contagion of Genesis lending issues has already hit one large firm, as Gemini Trust Co., the cryptocurrency platform run by the Winklevoss brothers, has halted withdrawals from its Earn program:

I think in all fairness, I should explain to you exactly what it is that I do. For instance tomorrow morning I'll get up nice and early, take a walk down over to your exchange office and... walk in and see and, uh... if you don't have my Bitcoin for me, I'll... crack your fuckin' head wide-open in front of everybody in the office. And just about the time that I'm comin' out of jail, hopefully, you'll be coming out of your coma. And guess what? I'll split your fuckin' head open again. 'Cause I'm fuckin' stupid. I don't give a fuck about jail. That's my business. That's what I do.

This raft is slowly filling up with new passengers, and now I'm thinking that it would be fair to put them all on one such raft and give them their worthless tokens and send them off into the endless blue ocean - maybe the whales would have mercy, and maybe not

So ...

Just flow with me here for a sec... What if this whole FTX thing was really a set-up.  Powers that be come in... got SB-F hooked on SOMETHING.  Have you seen the videos of him vibrating like a diesel engine?  Then nudge him further and further into the red 'till they set up the collapse.  Have legislation ready in the countries they control to try to bring the whole thing down over a few weeks...

Nah.  Just a ponzi prolly.

I'm just going to quote this from time to time until I either come out dead wrong, or...

Well let's hope for dead wrong.

Occam's razor says that greed and stupidity of hoi polloi is far more powerful than any lizard conspiracy could hope to be.

Not this time.

  I just read an article about this "Effective Altruism" movement and I don't think you can even dissect this particular event with Occam's razor without cutting yourself in the process.  The "hoi palloi" got nothing on these fuckin' unstable freaks-on-crank trying to maximize "good" without even knowing what "good" looks like.   Not only did they belong to an elitist organization (who, for the most part, look specifically like turtles with bad teeth rather than the more general "reptilian" description) but they were also able to garner a membership into a global cabal of other "reptilians" who consider themselves "elite" in order to pull this off (referring to the "invite only" WEF here).  They were able to gain credibility and influence by linking themselves with other well-known members of that organization publicly to gain the trust of the "hoi palloi", steal their money and use it to buy themselves even more influence and a private jet so they could do "good" at a frenetic pace. 

Spoiler alert:  The final paragraph of the article below and they don't even say he's a sociopathic fraudster (on meth)...  it's as if they're making excuses for his behaviour and the author implies that Sam will be back. 

Bankman-Fried once said that he’d got into cryptocurrency only to make money as quickly as possible and help finance the main goals of the effective-altruism movement. He was a proponent of the longtermist ethos, in which prediction and speculation are often indistinguishable and obligations to a probabilistic future outweigh those to the material present. Effective altruism is ultimately a gamble. Bankman-Fried placed his bet. For now, he has lost.
