@mcuban There is leverage in volume. Went through this recently with medicine for my dog. $167/vial going through national vet that gets preferred pricing from volume, vs $355/vial everywhere else. The bigger the negotiator, the better the pricing.

@mcuban If it’s not negotiating pricing from providers it’s kind of meaningless. People love to blame insurance but they’re only half of the problem, the doctors/hospitals are sending the bills

What if there was a bank account available, that required you to deposit monthly, what you would have paid an insurance company in premiums, for an ACA silver plan. So for a family of 5 about $2100. The amount would then be used for Stop Loss Insurance set at $30k dollars. About $300. Another $200 would be used for local Direct Primary Care for your family The balance would be in YOUR bank account. Like an HSA, It could only be used for approved medical expenses. If you never have any medical expenses, you will get to keep the money plus checking act level interest, when you turn 65 If you have a medical event that is more than what you have saved, your bank will loan you the money you need to pay for it, up to the $30k stop loss trigger You would repay that amount using the monthly $1600 net deposit. Once the loan is paid off, the deposits start to accrue to you again. This is not insurance. It’s a specially designed bank account that gives you control, support, a doctor to work with and catastrophic financial protection. Lots of work and issues to be addressed. But I was curious what people think Let me know !

The one debt you can’t ever pay off ? Your insurance premiums. You literally will pay an insurance premium monthly, till you die. But we don’t look at it like it’s a debt paid to an insurance company that will do all it possibly can never spend it on your care. We are working on a non -insurance solution. The day HSAs no longer require an insurance policy, it all will change. finance.yahoo.com/sectors/health…

Can you tell the problem shoulder? The band resisted 1-arm serratus wall slide with slider & contralateral/opposite thoracic rotation (something I picked up from Eric Cressey) can expose hidden problems & help build proper shoulder blade mechanics for overhead lifting.

You, the simple idiot: health insurance companies are making things expensive Me, the sophisticated hater: the hospital sent the fucking $3600 invoice for a 5 min CT scan

@andrewrsorkin a lot of respect for you. It would be cool if you could highlight that health insurers aren’t the only issue with healthcare The providers are over billing made up numbers knowing health insurance will negotiate it lower. They don’t provide “coverage” they bargain

So what does this actually mean? For companies: You don’t just issue loyalty points anymore. You issue money. Liquid, tradable, yield-generating money. Moving across wallets, dapps, and chains. Your brand becomes the currency. Think as: DeltaDollars StarbucksUSD AmazonCoin NBA Bucks but with the regulatory muscle of the world’s most trusted exchange behind it. Example: Image @Klarna issuing KlarnaCredits, a branded stablecoin that: - Rewards customers after purchases - Can be reused across Klarna merchants - Earns cashback/yield while idle - Is accepted on-chain with DEXs and bridges What does this mean for Coinbase: massive revenue. They earn spread on redemptions, transaction fees, and custody. At global scale.

@besttrousers I will say I respect seeing different opinions and think that’s an important part of the discourse. But I think a lot of the people in your position (or CNBC, etc) are passing judgment based on numbers, and not interactions with actual every day people.

@besttrousers I think people are comparing apples and oranges with dated methods. What worked then doesn’t work now, and trying to apply antiquated methods to current trends is a fools errand.

In October, consumer sentiment for the bottom third by income hit a *series* low of 49.8. Lower than peak inflation in 2022. Lower than the 2008 great recession. Lower than the Volcker shock.

@cosmoskyle I think this is further evidence that sentiment is disconnected from fundamentals.

Providers are over billing knowing health insurance will negotiate lower Health insurance uses the fragmentation of coverage (dozens of companies, hundreds of plans) to profit off of customers When the cost of treatment from the provider is the same regardless

It never cost $32k to begin with In that framing it doesn’t make sense why a company can negotiate better for some people than it can for others Or why you wouldn’t want the best negotiator in the world, the US Gov, to be the one negotiating costs for care when you need it

It’s time to reframe how we think of health insurance and why a single payor system makes sense I was in the hospital for a kidney stone. Health insurance didn’t offer “coverage,” they acted as a negotiator You pay a retainer to have health insurance negotiate costs

@CameronCorduroy The thing is, Republicans HATE Democrats, but when Obama and Biden were elected they didn't crash out and decide that they hated America. Their love for their country wasn't conditional on who it chose to lead it. Democrats' was.

@karbonbased I don’t understand why we keep making new blockchains and what the value is of new ones. How is this different than the over saturation of meme coins

Monad presale on Coinbase now 59% filled after being open for ~24 hours I think this probably fills by end of sale (Saturday 9pm EST) but the slow fill doesn't instill confidence The question is whether Monad is like SOL or like BERA
