@StackingHats @BitcoinShud @AndyBTCAdviser Thanks very much and yes aware of the different products and their specs

@bellewilliam @BitcoinShud @AndyBTCAdviser Definitely available on MooMoo and CMC Markets.
STRC is only good if you need the income. If you're looking for capital appreciation a combination of BTC/MSTR to suit you risk profile would be better.

💰 $10k cash sitting idle in Australia?
NAB iSaver: 4.70% p.a. for first 4 months → then 1.40% variable.
After 3.8% inflation + tax? You’re losing real purchasing power.
$STRC (Strategy Inc Variable Rate Perpetual Preferred):
~11.25% p.a. monthly cash dividends
100% return-of-capital → tax-deferred (zero tax now, CGT later with 50% discount)
1-year outcome on $10k:
NAB → +$253 nominal (real loss ~1.3% after inflation/tax)
STRC → +$1,127 cash (real gain ~+7.2%, $0 tax today)
STRC delivers 4.5× the income with tax efficiency (USD + BTC correlation risk applies).
(Always DYOR — rates can change)

@StackingHats @BitcoinShud @AndyBTCAdviser You sure ? Can we please update this ? Stake doesn’t have it, nabtrade either :(

WOW. We have the fee on Morgan Stanley's spot bitcoin ETF $MSBT. Will charge just 0.14% !!! Big move here. They are not messing around. Likely to launch in early April.
Eric Balchunas@EricBalchunas
SEMI-SHOCK: Morgan Stanley's bitcoin ETF will charge 14bps, making it the cheapest spot bitcoin ETF on the market and 11bps cheaper than $IBIT. This means none of their advisors will feel conflicted using it and they have shot at getting outside assets. Smart. Launch prob in next two weeks. Nice catch on the filing from Marty Party

NDIS EXPOSED: Massive 52 minute investigation with @PeteZogoulas into Australia's immense disability fraud crisis.
This is Minnesota on a national scale. The NDIS budget - now approaching $50 billion a year - is closing in on Australia's entire military budget, and there is so much fraud in the system that the official government regulator told the Australian Senate there are not enough judges in Australia to try all known cases of fraud. The entire Australian legal system would collapse if they tried.
Up to 99% of alleged NDIS fraud goes unprosecuted. Out of over 7,000 tip-offs alleging fraud in the March quarter of 2025, just 16 cases (0.22%) were prosecuted.
So alleged scammers don't even bother to hide abuse.
To give you just one example: we visited a West Sydney NDIS provider operating out of the exact same address as a previous NDIS business the Australian government shut down for fraud four months ago. They were using the same accountant and THE EXACT SAME PHONE NUMBERS!
When we confronted them on camera, the owners physically assaulted us, smashed $800 worth of @PeteZogoulas's equipment, and staff screamed "RETARD" at us.
These people work in disability care.
Very legitimate and professional disability service business.
Watch the whole thing now. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

#BTC
If history is any indication, Bitcoin could spend some time between these two Macro EMAs (orange box)
However, it's likely that any relief from the 50-Month EMA (purple) would be limited and could fall short of the green 21-Month EMA
If history repeats, Bitcoin could breakdown from the purple 50-Month EMA into additional Bearish Acceleration (red box) over time
$BTC #Crypto #Bitcoin

Rekt Capital@rektcapital
#BTC On breakdown from the Macro Triangle, Bitcoin tends to experience its first bout of Bearish Acceleration Then, a bout of temporary relief takes place before continuing the second part of Bearish Acceleration afterwards $BTC #Crypto #Bitcoin

It’s hard to find a real estate agent to sell a house for me because I understand the market.
I see through the sales pitches, the cover ups. I want a job done well, not a quick sale.
I’m onto my second real estate agent already.
Wish me luck.

Here’s how to slash sugar spikes from pasta — and make it healthier.
Scientists discover that cooling cooked pasta for 24 hours transforms its starch into a gut-friendly fiber that slashes blood sugar spikes.
When you cook pasta and then cool it for at least 24 hours, the starch molecules undergo a process called retrogradation. This molecular reorganization transforms digestible starch into "resistant starch," which functions more like fiber than a simple carbohydrate. Instead of being rapidly absorbed in the small intestine and causing a sharp rise in glucose, it travels to the large intestine where it feeds beneficial gut bacteria as a powerful prebiotic. This simple kitchen hack not only supports a healthy microbiome but also encourages the production of short-chain fatty acids that help reduce internal inflammation.
Beyond gut health, this transformation provides a significant advantage for metabolic wellness by slowing sugar absorption and improving insulin response. Perhaps most surprisingly, these health benefits remain largely intact even if you choose to reheat the pasta before eating. By simply planning ahead and refrigerating your noodles overnight, you can effectively lower the caloric impact of your meal while maintaining more stable energy levels throughout the day. This game-changing strategy allows you to enjoy favorite comfort foods while prioritizing long-term health and better blood sugar control.

@garyblack00 Why is the panic here ? I don’t follow ? Are we close to 20k?
English

@bellewilliam The reason we are getting all this volatility is because bond yields are rising on long term trends after falling for four decades. Since the 80's, we are in the first decade with high yields than last. The market is attacking every asset class. The weak will die. It's the cycle!
