@AmazonMGMStudio the new Stargate was something that has convinced me I would subscribe to @PrimeVideo but now, after this spit in the face I will NEVER give another cent to any Amazon company.

@metaplanet This is extremely disappointing leaving such an important event to luck. You should stop with that lottery idea and simply set minimum share limit to attend.

@sidsuri Couldn't they create a separate company that would do that and MSTR would own it as a part of its portfolio?

If you're wondering why Strategy ($MSTR) isn't selling options on their Bitcoin it's because the option contacts themselves are securities and not commodities and subject to the Investment Company Act rules in the US. Essentially if MSTR starts generating income primarily by selling options they'll be deemed an Investment Company (no longer an operating company) and will be subject to all the SEC rules and regulations that go with it. Also then they won't be eligible to be included in any passive indices. This is why operating companies in the US don't sell options on their Bitcoin. This can be done at a small scale without triggering investment company rules but not as a primary business. In this sense the Japanese market is unique and local players do have an advantage. Note that I'm not saying Strategy needs to do this to be successful and I believe their way of securitizing Bitcoin is working just fine!

5/10 Unlike Strategy having to pay for their preferred yield by issuing more preferred or common shares, Metaplanet already has a strong and growing income strategy. They sell options on Bitcoin itself, harvesting Bitcoin volatility directly and turning it into more Bitcoin and $ on their balance sheet.

I never saw an official video, so here is my little bit from the induction of Quake into the Strong Museum’s World Video Game Hall of Fame last month.

Apparently Metaplanet is the most shorted stock in Japan. Do they really think betting against Bitcoin is a winning strategy?

@LynAldenContact I give every one of my god-children the 15 books that have meant the most to me (or been most influential). My 3rd godchild is getting confirmed in 9 days & this time Broken Money is in the box (wasn’t out for the previous 2). It’s *that* good.

@bitcoinjesuseth For research or ideas or fact-checking or editing software, sure. For writing itself, LLMs mainly just rehash existing things. So I don’t see myself using AI to write. I only write a book I’m personally passionate enough to write. Next one is a sci fi novel actually. 🙃

Given that articles, interviews, and tweets can have more immediate reach than a book, some people ask why I would write a book. Reasons like this below. Books hit different. They can tell a fuller story, and tune out present noise.

@romero It should have been made in the Quake universe, though. It's medieval, such a nice fit! Oh, well. It still looks like an interesting game.

@plan_marcus Wouldn't that be boring? If I don't work on something useful or interesting for a few days it makes me feel almost physically ill. Games can't replace fulfillment of a job well done.

Bitcoin allowed me to quit my job, travel and settle in a tropical paradise. Yes, the dream came true I’m in this phase where I’m considering different options of adding value to society. In the meantime, ppl lose their shit if I tell them I don’t work.

@LynAldenContact What I understood so far - that yes, there will be some kind of thing like that, but the key is that it will be different to what we imagine today. Same as with virtually all transformative inventions.

Do you believe that a Kurzweil-style Singularity will occur by the mid-2040s, or nah?

@Zaez23 Hey! Just saw your video with your math on game extractors :) It wasn't entirely correct (or rather very incorrect :) ), but it was fun watching. Do you have a discord account? I'd be happy to share real numbers from game data.
