@100AcresRanch Should use something more flammable than that 2x4. Maybe a Duraflame log.

Dear chat. Is this code compliant? 😂

@HodlMagoo 50%? More like 30%

What to be depressed? Bitcoin is the same price it was in April 2025 while the $SPY is up 50% since then.

@BoomerDivvies Dividends don’t matter. Total return is the only thing that matters.

“Dividends don’t matter” is a dumb take. They play a huge role. If my parents had put $1,000 in the S&P when I was born it would now be worth: $117,210 (dividends not reinvested) $943,000 dividends reinvested. That’s an $825k difference. Yeah dividends matter dummies.

@TomerStrolight Dehydrate them, then make chive powder. Sprinkle on popcorn.

Whe life gives you lemons you make lemonade. But what about when it gives you chives? I’ve got hundreds of times of what’s pictured here growing in my backyard. What do I do?

@LawrenceLepard @Sorenthek Finding the Money movie was trash, too.

@Sorenthek That book is complete trash. I had to read it to write mine, and was stunned by how stupid she is.

@Mandrik I’m sorry, did you say 75 POUNDS of baklava?

Smashed a leg day on Vegas travel day. The day I have to travel with 75+ pounds of baklava. Yes I am an idiot. See you guys soon. ✌️

@CPATaxTeam You mean dividends aren’t magic bonus money?

Do Twitter folks not realize that you can sell a few shares of VOO to cover the cash needs and you don't have to rely on the dividends only from a portfolio...right?

@L0laL33tz How much bitcoin we talking about?

I take back that you should boycott Todd Blanche’s panel, as I‘ve had a better idea. Send us a video of you calling Blanche a liar, yelling „Free Roman Storm,“ or „Free Samourai,“ and we will send you free bitcoin. The point of this challenge is not to disrupt the talk, but to make everyone in attendance (including Blanche himself) aware that you cannot speak on a panel on code being speech and ending the war on bitcoin when the department you are overseeing is actively prosecuting developers. Why? Because almost exactly one year ago, Blanche himself issued a memo titled "Ending Regulation by Prosecution." Since then, he has allowed numerous prosecutions of developers to go ahead anyway – threatening code as speech at every opportunity. Keonne Rodriguez and William Hill are each doing 5 years in prison, sentenced after the memo was issued. SDNY continues to chase Roman Storm, trying to put him away for 45 years. Its time that we challenge his empty promises, not give him a bigger stage to preach them on. If Blanche wants to have a publicity stunt, he can have a publicity stunt. Suck it, liars @TheJusticeDept

@Osinttechnical Its giving major monkey bars vibes.

Iran's IRGC Navy has released footage of its forces seizing a pair of container ships in the Strait of Hormuz this morning.

@Renegade197000 @TheRealPlanC Nonsense. Bitcoin being decentralized is unrelated to who owns what quantity of BTC. Also, the vast majority is owned by individuals.

@TheRealPlanC Can hardly call #bitcoin decentralized anyone. It's all owned by ETFs, institutions and Saylor. It's no longer for the people. Truely sad

Michael Saylor said he will exponentially slow down his buys once they reach 7.5%. That's the top of an S-curve. Once past the inflection point, the rate of change decays exponentially as the curve flattens toward its ceiling. He literally just described my model. A $2.1M ceiling would be poetic.

@marttimalmi 🤣😂😭

NEW: Tim Apple stepping down as CEO, cites frustrations with the Board over Bitcoin treasury

@isabelfoxenduke @NeilJacobs @_Checkmatey_ LOL at this nonsense.

well for starters hashrate will fall off a cliff... and all the adoption we've worked for up until this point will be decemated... economic destruction for all significant bitcoin holders and their families (in a way that may not be recoverable)... and of course, the broader risk of complete lack of confidence in the network to safeguard purchasing power over time. Basically, Bitcoin just becomes a shitcoin... a temporary experiment that didn't work. But this is, of course, just a possibility.

And folks are worried about Satoshi's coins being sold... Market will absorb them just fine. Spoonful of cement, and harden up.

@ambitious_luis @Bitcoin_Teej False. You can with @unchained

@Bitcoin_Teej True but you can’t self custody when it’s in an IRA

You can put Bitcoin in a Roth IRA and never pay taxes on the gains. Ever. Bitcoin goes from $72,000 to $500,000 inside a Roth. You pull it out in retirement. The IRS gets zero. You keep everything. Most people don't know crypto is allowed in retirement accounts. You need a self directed IRA custodian companies like iTrustCapital or Alto IRA set this up. It's legal. It's been legal for years. And almost nobody is doing it.

@lopp … and the payout is $1.16 and free identity theft monitoring for six months.

It's a real rollercoaster of a ride when you receive notices that you're eligible for a data breach settlement payout... 😒 Then when you get to the instructions for claiming the payout, you realize you gave the service provider a fake identity because you're a cypherpunk. 😎

@GunsofLiberty75 @right2bear Especially in California.

@right2bear Me too. Even in California

I print guns and will continue to print guns

@resistancemoney Some of my best thinking takes place while driving through the desert.

best way to think through a problem is on a walk. second best is a long sauna. third, surprisingly, is cooking.

@TFTC21 Just wait until Iran closes the Cliffs of Insanity.

This is the chart that explains the entire war economy right now. 14.2 million barrels of oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz every day. That's 25% of the world's maritime oil trade passing through a chokepoint 21 miles wide at its narrowest point. On the supply side, Saudi Arabia alone pushes 5.29 million barrels a day through it. Iraq sends 3.24 million. UAE 1.83 million. Iran 1.51 million. Kuwait 1.43 million. Only Saudi Arabia and the UAE have pipelines that can bypass the strait entirely, everyone else is stuck. On the demand side, 89% of the oil flowing through Hormuz goes to Asia. China takes 5.35 million barrels a day, 37.7% of total flow. India takes 2.09 million. South Korea 1.70 million. Japan 1.55 million. Europe gets just 0.53 million. The US gets 0.36 million. This is why the war in Iran is an Asian energy crisis first and an American gas price problem second. When Iran shut down tanker traffic through the strait, it didn't just disrupt supply, it severed the energy lifeline for the world's fastest-growing economies. China has ordered refiners to halt fuel exports. South Korea imposed fuel price caps for the first time in 30 years. Japan is draining its strategic reserves at record pace and watching its bond market blow up. Bangladesh shut down universities to conserve energy. The US feels it at the pump. Asia feels it everywhere.

@ggreenwald x.com/realDonaldTrum…

Notice how quickly all that bullshit about liberating Iranians disappeared, and now it's all about bombing them back to the Stone Age, destroying their bridges and universities, poisoning their air and water, and stealing their oil.
