Immaculate Vibes

I appreciate you backing up what I stated, since I know you dislike me. It’s amazing how things that are so blatantly obvious are shit on just based on who posts it here. People who have no clue about a topic will just talk shit because the internet. I agree that it’s obvious that the vast majority of illegal immigrants are peaceful and looking for a better life. But it’s also obvious that there’s more people that are bad news coming across too. There’s consequences to that increased traffic for people that live near the border whether people in Houston, Dallas, or Austin give a fuck or not.

How many times have you dropped the N word online today JJ?

Yes that’s why I’m “working overtime”. One US state is looking to ban bitcoin mining. Wow. You have it figured out. Do you realize China banned bitcoin mining in the last year? Like all of China? I post about this because it’s fascinating to me. We’ve never had the development of a new monetary network from scratch like this and it’s managed to achieve geopolitical significance at a rapid pace. Really incredible and couldn’t come at a better time imo. You’re prolific posting in the face of a staggering level of ignorance in multiple subjects is truly breathtaking. They have a saying for people like you in crypto that fits perfectly. NGMI

Who’s marketing it hard? You’re on a short thread in CR. It isn’t half as long as the Joe Rogan thread. A movement? I guess y’all mean like shitcoin or nft exchanges? They’re just satisfying a demand. Those are like casinos. People like to gamble that’s it. Again my interest is almost totally bitcoin centric, which I humbly put well ahead of the rest of the scams and VC projects.

A lot of the comments here obviously come from people not familiar with life by the border. I grew up a minority amongst a sea of brown people. Not scared of them. But I’ll explain something to you. Regular migrants wear regular clothes when they’re in transit. The only ones that wear camo are ones that really don’t want to be caught. If any of the cool kids here ever leave Dallas or Houston or Austin to go hunting by the border I’d recommend not walking up to someone looking like this and asking them if they’re lost. Just a tip.

Lol. I would think he had some in his backpack. What’s in there? Probably just some granola bars.

Lol at thinking the average person has an effect on the future of the dollar. It’s about building a lifeboat that protects freedom and personal privacy in case things continue the direction in which they’re already going with regards to monetary policy and the surveillance state. You may think that shouldn’t be an option. Agree to disagree.

I get this sentiment and it’s why I don’t talk to friends about it much at all. If I do it’s friends that I know can afford to invest in it and are looking for places to put money. Like partners at work or friends from school. I’ve mentioned it to one friend that’s a radiologist for years. He’s always blown it off. Now when he’s planning to move to his hometown he complains about how much home prices are out of control, something isn’t right etc. So I said, see that’s what I’ve been talking about the money’s broken. He still couldn’t get over the hump to buy it that I know of. People will just come to it in their due time. Of course people want their investment to do well, but I think those that are really into bitcoin specifically have a very ideological basis for it. Besides the endless money printing and its dangers, there’s an ongoing trend toward centralization and control of individual’s finances that is dangerous imo. The big goal for some in govt is a central bank digital currency (CBDC). China is rolling theirs out now. It’s basically the surveillance state’s wet dream. All accounts and transactions traceable and censorable. This is one of the worst things that could happen for personal privacy and freedom. Bitcoin is the best chance we have as Americans to avoid it and everything that could happen if it’s fully utilized/weaponized. I don’t think the average American realizes the high level at which this game is being played and the consequences. This is why I’m passionate about it. To sum up,

Yeah you wouldn’t make it. The real ones walk. Just a young man looking for opportunity. Here you go @hobbes2702 @atomheartbevo Would you go up to him and say hi?

Nothing CR about it. I don’t think it’s the owners fault typically. They’re just the most common dogs to attack people. Just last week had patient that got torn up by his friend’s pit bull when he was helping him move. I have pic but it’s probably best not to post on this site.

People seem to get caught up on the “currency” part. They think how can you make gains just holding a currency, they don’t just go up. This is nothing hard and fast, but one graphic representation of how it could play out price wise. Disregard the “we’re here” arrow. This chart’s from a few years back. We’re a little further along the x axis although not a ton.

@UpperWestside has done this to me multiple times, check his/my activity, including Lulz posts.

Joni Mitchell, serious business

Let’s see one is a middle aged grunge band. The other has 11M listeners and enough cultural pull to have a 34 page CR thread. I can’t wait to see who wins.

Look here Penelope, another one.

It’s true. An hour away from the border. I grew up there. I have a pic for you of the truck with some fat cops checking it out. Other than that why would I give you creeps any more info about myself?

Or the time my parents drove up on a busted fence line. Got out to check it out and heard a bunch of voices in the brush. Turns out a smuggler was running from border patrol and run his truck through the fence and they all went scurrying. So they stood there armed and waiting for officers to show up and flush out the people in the brush.

Good article but one point is wrong. There is no worry about if the miners will turn off when there’s high electricity demand. They sell electricity back to the grid so they’re compelled to do it.

That poor bastard has been in the news forever. Can’t imagine how bad that must feel.

Lol ”Gold is money. Everything else is credit.” JP Morgan As it’s adopted it will increase in value until an equilibrium is reached.

I’ve engaged you on technical aspects of Bitcoin. You, and other posters, seem to largely disagree with me on the basis that it “has no value”. What you’re missing is that value of a lot of things is subjective. It has value because people agree that it does, to the tune of 37k per coin. Why does gold have value? Diamonds? Six characteristics of useful money Durability-roughly even. Gold doesn’t degrade, Bitcoin is digital Portability-Bitcoin wins easily. You can move millions of dollars in btc without lifting a finger. Divisibility-Bitcoin is easily divisible down to almost any amount you want vs gold coinage Uniformity-Bitcoin wins. Gold has to be assayed to determine purity and therefore value of any quantity Scarcity-Bitcoin wins. Set number. Gold supply grows about 1.5% per year and if a huge spike in price occurs capital will be deployed to increase supply further Acceptability- this is where gold currently wins. Has a much longer track record.

So a CNN report yesterday cited a Ukrainian source saying call between leaders went poorly. They were good boys and later deleted the report because the administration disagreed. Here’s the Tapper segment.
