Watching this made me think about the Brave browser having a Tor mode and why not a Safe Network Mode?

Interesting, the ex Gov of the bank of england, you know the crowd who hate bitcoin etc. etc. Well Mark Carney took a job with square just a few months back. So hate crypto when in power and love crypto when in private. Interesting times. I wonder what that says? or maybe it’s just more greed/corruption and manipulation, who knows with these guys.

In any case it’s good news and I reckon twitter will follow, I also reckon facebook will cave and realise world domination with your own crypto project is not gonna happen.

Given that the gold and silver price are set worldwide by the COMEX market and that they are heavily shorted there by the big banks - gold and silver have been effectively demonetized. They will adjust with inflation, but they aren’t allowed to move to far out of bounds. Bitcoin and crypto in general are priced by multiples of markets worldwide - the big banks have little ability to control it … hence bitcoin can grow in value relative to demand and not merely via inflating mining costs (as fiat depreciates).

I think many of the smarter folks on wall street are waking up to this now and as many more custody solutions are in place, it’s a no-brainer to keep cash reserves in bitcoin - even to borrow fiat at this stage and buy bitcoin. What this portends for fiat is becoming devastatingly clear - serious hyperinflation is coming. While I am relieved that it’s day is nearly done and we can begin to rebuild the world on sound money, many people are going to be left behind with nothing. Transitions like we are approaching are never easy or simple. Yet clinging to antiquated systems is even worse in the longer run.

IMO, prepare yourselves mentally for the coming changes this decade … they are going to be hard.

I think Wall Street missed the move in my opinion. I am in that business. While there was lots of noise when BTC went through 5k on the way up, and while there was lots of piss-taking when it returned there from 20k, there hasnt been a whisper from institutional traders since.

Vaccinated! :tada:

First dose, thank you NHS, vaccination volunteers and everyone who has worked to help vaccinate the world population.

Everything was friendly, efficient and completely painless. I was checked in and vaccinated within 10 mins of parking up. No soreness or any other effects so far.

Brilliant news, in a few short weeks you will have decent protection, no hospitalisation on catching it either (or little chance).

I feel confident it will significantly stop spread, but we can only hope.

If something like this happened with BTC network it’d crash the price big time … and the fiat holders would be screaming “I told you so!” … but when it happens to them … crickets.
