@grok @maniaUFO He “Asked to see the Navy chaplain,” then broke down crying when he saw the cross? May not be a formal announcement of a conversion, but good enough for me.

No, this claim is false. Reid Wiseman (Artemis II commander) said he's "not really a religious person." He described an emotional moment after splashdown where he asked to see the Navy chaplain and broke down seeing the cross on his collar—but he never announced a conversion to Christianity or claimed atheism beforehand turning to faith. The quote is fabricated. It's a viral exaggeration of his actual press conference comments.

Atheist Artemis II astronaut Reid Wiseman says he has CONVERTED to Christianity after his trip to moon: "There is no other explanation for what I saw and experienced. When we landed back on earth, I saw the cross and just wept."✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️

NFT's are getting some interesting action recently. Floor price of Bored Ape Yacht Club, for example, has doubled this month and volume has essentially 10x'd, up to 200+ ETH per day. Something to keep an eye on.

@ZacharyTackett2 @HowardWKYT Indeed he did. Touche to him sir, touche.

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT And he trolled

Tyran Stokes just posted this video of himself getting a tattoo, and there’s a #Kentucky game playing on the TV behind him 🤔

@digijordan The “Three-Body Problem” wasn’t completely science fiction.

It’ll turn out to be HUNDREDS of scientists and physicists that have been mysteriously disappeared. And there are NO suspects…NO evidence trails…NO logical theories. How can this be? Maybe it’s the system itself that’s doing it…

@Michael43333781 @fleurdelisCards @HowardWKYT Sure, sure. The #1 player just isn’t right for a below-average ACC squad. Right…. And Crown Royal is racist? 😂 I’m sure you guys totally don’t want him, otherwise why would you be commenting on any and every post about him? 🤔

@BitcoinBigRig @fleurdelisCards @HowardWKYT Ah the good old racist stereotypes… stay true to your traditions… but no they didnt want a locker room cancer that would make everyone regret coming to our school

@Michael43333781 @fleurdelisCards @HowardWKYT The #1 prospect in the country wants to come to UL but UL doesn’t want him? 😂 You’re delirious guy, lay off the crown royal.

@BitcoinBigRig @fleurdelisCards @HowardWKYT He wants them to be it wasnt by his choice lol

@Michael43333781 @HowardWKYT 🚨 Breaking news: Louisville is in the state of Kentucky.

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT

@fleurdelisCards @HowardWKYT Louisville isn’t even in the running, goofball.

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT A tattoo of a LOUISVILLE legend, with a LOUISVILLE newspaper, a LOUISVILLE area code. Fixed it for you.

@Stewart44 @HowardWKYT Definitely an entertaining guy. If he got a full-leg Kentucky-based tattoo just to troll Kentucky fans, that would be the most committed troll-job in the history of troll-jobs.

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT He is also wearing Adidas. He is an absolute stud at trolling. I respect his game. He is not coming to UK, but I can’t hate on him the way he keeps us UK fans in the edge of our seat.

@itsyaboii201 @HowardWKYT "We" don't? What state does your ID say? How about your address? "Yeah, just put down Louisville, but no state." "Uh sir, this is the Kentucky DMV."

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT Louisville yes is in the state of Kentucky but we don’t say we are

@ZacharyTackett2 @HowardWKYT Dude, that would be an all-timer. Reporter: tell me about that tattoo with all the state of Kentucky stuff on it? Stokes: "Ah, I did that a few years ago to screw with some people online. Then I went to Kansas. Isn't that so funny man?" Reporter: uh yeah, hilarious.

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT Or greatest troll of all time

@itsyaboii201 @HowardWKYT 🚨This just in: sources are telling me that Louisville is a city located in--checks notes--the state of Kentucky. Also, Muhammad Ali is from Kentucky and is a legend, how is any of that "crazy"?

@BitcoinBigRig @HowardWKYT Kentucky legend is crazy also that’s Louisville area code not Lexington

How many $CAR millionaires got wrecked here? (See what I did there). AVIS (ticker $CAR) did 750% up in 22 days and 68% down in two days. No idea what is going on with that stock, but that is a wild run for a stock with relatively low volatility.

@financeguy74 @findingsatoshi_ @coinbase Sounds like my theory from yesterday is gaining plausibility. If I was a billionaire who cared immensely about protecting my identity as satoshi (for now), what would I want the most popular documentaries/articles to say about me? A: Dismiss me out of hand as ridiculous.

What was the purpose of @findingsatoshi_ dissing Jack Dorsey's intelligence in its documentary? "...Jack dorsey was going to quit his job and go work as a shoe salesman. These were not geniuses. They were f***ing lucky." @coinbase?

I’m not trying to insinuate that the reporter or even the publication is doing anything nefarious. Just trying to say if I was a billionaire who didn’t want my name associated with a story, the best thing that could happen when people were getting close is a prestigious publication pointing the finger at someone else. The logistics of how a billionaire might influence that to happen are unknown to me, but I’m guessing there are avenues.

@BitcoinBigRig @JohnCarreyrou John is a legit real reporter that can't be bought off or influenced to run a coverup. He genuinely believes it's Adam Back.

I SAT DOWN WITH @JohnCarreyrou LAST YEAR ABOUT MY THEORY THAT JACK DORSEY IS SATOSHI Since Carreyrou's thesis that Adam Back is Satoshi is now live in the New York Times, I'll admit that he contacted me more than a year ago and I sat down with him for a talk. He was curious about my theory that Jack Dorsey is Satoshi. While I rehashed verbally what I had posted on X, he ultimately did not buy into it. So it goes. I don't believe Satoshi is Adam Back and I did not know that was a direction he was leaning. While he is being criticized for "Satoshi Hunting" in the first place and now naming someone that has repeatedly explicitly denied it, the situation I found myself in over the last 2 years was quite different when I landed on my own answer. Rather than looking at someone that was adamantly protesting they weren't Satoshi, Dorsey seemed to qualify his denials with maybes. And so of course I tried to elicit a direct "no" to put the brakes on my theory. Ultimately, Dorsey was asked during an investor day presentation this past November in front of serious shareholders and all of Wall Street to put the theory to bed. If you haven't seen the video of it, watch it. Dorsey sidestepped the question, one that was framed by the Wall Street analyst asking the question as "the most important he would ever get." Dorsey didn't deny it, instead saying that the answer didn't matter anymore. Block's CFO Amrita Ahuja then followed up Jack's non-denial by stating that Dorsey indeed might be Satoshi. This seemed pretty material and vindicating for me that I was not placing a label on someone that absolutely did not want it. I relayed this information to Carreyrou in November by email to say that in the biggest of spotlights, where an explicit denial was appropriate, Dorsey offered the opposite. Carreyrou was unmoved. While I sympathize with criticism applied to those who claim they found Satoshi when their selection is someone pleading that it's not them, my pick seemed okay with the label. And they weren't telling me stop. Jack Dorsey was a fan of Adam Back as had been detailed in my findings. I would not be surprised to find similarities between a fan of Back and Back himself in the style of writing. The Adam Back theory requires major leaps of imagination, plotting, and foresight. I'm not making a movie. I'm not involved in and was not contacted for this @findingsatoshi_ documentary that's circulating around, though it has piqued my interest because Coinbase is sponsoring it and promoting (weird). I pretty much wrapped up my foray into Satoshi (and my belief it's Jack) last year after the Block Investor Day Presentation. I believe Jack Dorsey is Satoshi. I don't think it's required that he admit it. I just think it is what it is. I picked someone who fit all the boxes and wouldn't give a firm "no" when pressed even in the most high pressure of circumstances like in front of his investors. Every other Satoshi candidate rushes to deny being Satoshi as much they can. So it goes.

This topic has been trending for weeks. My fun conspiracy theory for the day is that Jack Dorsey anonymously paid the NY Times a few mil to run an article hinting at Adam Back to throw everyone off the Jack = Satoshi scent that was getting really strong.

And Nasdaq is up big (over 1%) in pre-market so it's looking like 13 in a row. This would be the longest streak since the dot com era. $QQQ

@AltcoinDaily Damn, I thought he was going to have a logical argument against it instead of just the generic "too good to be true" shit talking.

JUST IN: Coffeezilla publishes video taking on Bitcoin believer Michael Saylor & Strategy's $STRC. Coffee says Saylor's STRC preferred-stock pitch is too simple & the risks are not properly explained. "It's been compared to the iPhone. It's been compared to a Ponzi scheme." "You put in your money. They say they're going to yield about 11.5% per year. That's basically double digit returns which is just mind-blowing" "What is the problem with that? Well ultimately... the company has no obligation to pay you back. Why haven't people realized this?" "My entire problem is that they're leading people like a pied piper with this kind of ludicrous idea. Their pitch is of a money market and a bank - When that's just not what this is. This is a snowball of yield."
