you likely have Free medical
Not free. Universal. He pays for it through that 50%+ tax. In addition, in the last decade millions of people have been allowed to enter Europe giving them free healthcare from minute 1 (for them it is free because they had not contributed to the system before), which has led to a worsening of the service and longer waiting lists. I don't know how things are going in Germany, where I think Hhampuz lives, but I will give you an example from the UK, where there is, as you would say, “free” healthcare: What matters to individual patients is the time spent waiting. NHS England has an elective care recovery plan to eliminate long waits. Median waiting times stand at 14.5 weeks and only 58% of people are being treated within 18 weeks, so further action will be needed. Eliminating the backlog and restoring waiting times to 18 weeks will be very challenging. The achievements of the early 2000s, when waiting times were brought down from 18 months to 18 weeks, shows it can be done. However, this will require significant investment alongside sustained focus and effective supporting policies. If you have a non-urgent ailment that requires a visit to a specialist, let's say you have discomfort when you walk and you start limping you cannot go directly to a rheumatologist or traumatologist, you have to go first to a GP, which depending on where you live can cost you 3 days or a couple of weeks, and then if the GP decides to refer you to a specialist, and does not give you for example an anti-inflammatory and makes you come back after a month, then you can spend up to 4 and a half months if you are lucky until he sees you. And imagine what it was like in the early 2000s. Also, for the record and from a distance I think that the system you have in the USA is quite bad in some respects but don't think that the “free” healthcare that glitters so much is gold.

A British judge ruled against a man who wants to excavate a landfill where he says a hard drive with access to thousands of bitcoins was mistakenly dumped over 11 years ago. "It would be a criminal offence for the claimant or anyone acting for him to sort over or disturb any refuse deposited at the Site, unless he were authorised to do so by the defendant: see section 27 of CPA 1974 and section 60 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990," the ruling said. "The defendant could only give such authorisation, or excavate the Site itself, if it were first to apply for and obtain a new environmental permit from NRW, as the Schedule of permitted activities in its existing permit does not allow excavation of the Site." https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/01/judge-ends-mans-11-year-quest-to-dig-up-landfill-and-recover-765m-in-bitcoin/

BlackRock Builds $50 BILLION in BTCitcoin Trove in Just 12 Months, According to ArkhamNew data from market intelligence firm Arkham reveals that asset management titan BlackRock has built a $50 billion stash of Bitcoin (BTC) in 2024. The data also finds that software firm MicroStrategy, founded by BTC maxi Michael Saylor, bought $24 billion worth of the crypto king last year while financial services giant Fidelity accumulated $20 billion worth of BTC. XHowever, Arkham goes on to note that BlackRock – which has over $10 trillion in assets under its management – isn’t accumulating the top crypto asset by market cap anymore. Rather, it has reversed course and is unloading BTC in the short term. Earlier this month, it was reported that BlackRock’s spot market BTC exchange-traded fund (ETF) saw a record number of outflows. At the time, it was found that the firm’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) witnessed $332.6 million worth of outflows on January 2nd, the largest day on record. In November, it was found that IBIT had surpassed BlackRock’s gold ETF (IAU) in terms of net assets – reaching over $33 billion – despite the gold ETF launching nearly two decades earlier in 2005.

I was trying to price in bitcoin mining hosting yesterday and found out that it is economically unfeasible with current cost of production of about 70K/btc and even used machines (S21) cost being close to $5K. Therefore, mining is only for low cost producers aka large companies, unless you want to acquire less btc (then in the outright purchase) and maybe even lose $$ in the end. Basically, buying the dip (or ETFs for those with no current skill/knowledge) is the only option.

I'm buying the dip.
If there would be any. Triple bottom is one of my favorite scenario It shows strong buying signal around the support. TA wise we good FA looking good unless Powell opens his mouth again.

Ya, but the reality is that we're circling a giant growing ball of fire that will one day engulf our entire planet, but long before that the oceans will boil and the planet will be completely uninhabitable. No amount of taxes or virtue signaling will stop this reality. No amount of cutting down trees (yes, that is Bill Gates' latest plan), or regulation will stop it. What definitely didn't help was the Biden Administration causing one of the biggest geological disasters of our lifetime by blowing up the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. They are going to keep creating new taxes and regulations to fight global warming while causing ecological disasters and printing money to fight pandemics until we all own nothing.
We are in rush to destroy nature, China is building world's largest dam on river Yarlung Zangbo in Tibet with claim that it will help China in meeting it's carbon neutrality goals. Ignoring altogether it's side effects. The main thing to understand is that Climate change will eventually effect everyone in this world. Climate change will not respect any border, it will effect everyone. Buy Bitcoin.
I will defiantly buy Bitcoin but what I will do with Bitcoin if we have no life on this planet earth.

I will defiantly buy Bitcoin but what I will do with Bitcoin if we have no life on this planet earth. Well if my belief that the powers to be will melt the ice. By 2100 -2125 a shit ton of people will die. Maybe a few billions. I don’t think everyone will die. Since I date back to a time when the world had under 3 billions I can assure you the world can work with 2 or 3. billions vs 8 billions. As to what you can do to protect yourself and loved ones I don’t know what to say. For me and my wife thats my list of loved ones. I likely will bet that we die of old age before 2055. I would be 98 and she would be 99. Kind of sucks to think this way but its what I got.

Man these dryness is igniting fire everywhere. Some Bushes caught fire near my house because they are completely dry. There is no rain for almost two months which is quite unusual. Luckily fire is not that big and contained before it effect the population nearby. But flames and heat was well enough to tell how deadly fire can be. Stay safe everyone.
