If $STRC can hold it's peg at 100, and if it can reliably pay it's distributions, and if it gets tokenized with all the other securities on the market, then tokenized STRC shares become a USD stablecoin that pays a significant dividend and is not limited by the the Clarity Act.

@Cat5SMASHICANE No that's diversity, sweet wonderful diversity. Mum-Ra should be thanking the thundercats cause diversity is such a strength.

This is one of my favorites, if not my absolute favorite cartoon growing up. Turns out they were the bad guys all the long. 🤣🤣🤣

I officially have a leg up on my home decor. 😉👠 ​Is this a masterpiece or have I finally lost it? Honestly, I can't decide if it belongs in the bedroom or the living room... help me out in the replies! 👇🔥

Help me 😂😂

@BrianPrescott48 What a bunch of bullshit. I've been taking berberine for years, it's no ozempic

Big Pharma profits billions from Ozempic and Metformin, drugs with severe side effects. But they suppressed a natural compound that optimizes male metabolism & burns fat—used for 3,500 years. It's called Berberine. Here's how it helps men: 1… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@pcmorph @financedystop This is terrible advice

@financedystop if you can live with your parents, they were too easy on you, make your own way, pair up with your boys and share rent, do whatever you have to do

He just turned 24 and moved back in with his parents and thinks it’s a great thing they’re willing to let him

@RiKarmgard34 @nypost @MrJerryOC The kangaroo was Kangaroo Jack. His character in that movie was named Charlie

@nypost You mean @MrJerryOC ? The guy who married a supermodel, is the favorite guest of the number one sports podcast, and was Kangaroo Jack? I think he’s doing just fine.

Maher makes fun of guest for attending Kamala Harris rally and being a donor trib.al/Ak2BpIZ

@electricmrsny @firehustle_net He said end of March, then it's end of March or beginning in April. Basically if there's any pullback between now and July he'll say I told you so

@firehustle_net He is waiting for the dump at the end of March, beginning April.

benjamin cowen isn't tweeting every 5 minutes anymore... what happened

@JimmyZick @ClownWorld That happens to me sometimes, so I get back in my car and fix the park instead of just going on with my day

@ClownWorld This video is from somebody who has never driven a big truck. If my wife borrowed my truck to go to the store she would take up 6 spots easy. You can't see any lines and with a 6" lift, you can't see the car on the right and not much of the one in front of you.

😭🤣🤣

@SpockResists Why would he have no liver? This is stupid

A British doctor says, "In Britain, medicine is so advanced that we cut off a man's liver, put it in another man and in 6 weeks he's looking for a job. The German doctor says, "That's nothing, in Germany we took part of a brain, put it in another man, and in 4 weeks he's looking

Companies were interested in profit 20 years ago. Companies outsourced to other countries 20 years ago. You're offering these factors as reasons for the decline in quality when they existed for many decades when quality was much higher. So my stance is that you're analysis is dumb.

This woman argues that shopping today feels demoralizing. Products feel cheaper and lower quality than they used to, back when more goods were made in America.

@IdolManasseh @financedystop These factors didn't exist 20 years ago?

@HustleBitch_ She looks just like this actress from law and order

🚨 “REALTORS ARE SCAM ARTISTS” — VIRAL VIDEO TORCHING THE INDUSTRY IS GOING NUCLEAR A skit exploding across social media is ripping into the real estate industry, and it’s hitting a nerve. In the video, a homebuyer slowly realizes something about the process that makes it look suspicious. Every time she tries to make an offer, the real estate agent suddenly claims there’s “another bid.” But when the buyer asks basic questions like who the bidder is, what they offered, or if they’re even real, the response is always the same: “I can’t say.” Then the realization hits. If the price goes up… the agent’s commission goes up too. Seconds later the house is “sold” and the real estate agent walks away with a $50,000 commission. Now the internet is arguing. Some say agents protect buyers through complex deals. Others say it’s just the most expensive middleman job in America. Be honest: are realtors worth it… or is the whole system a scam?

@CryptoLifer33 Wall Street will be able to print infinite bitcoin until there's about 12 million coins in privately held cold storage

There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin. But in reality: • ~4M lost forever • 738k owned by Saylor • ~1.5M locked in ETFs That’s 6+ million coins effectively gone.

@lonniev @adamobrien OK now I'm sure you're being purposely obtuse, cause the actual answer is painfully obvious.

The one in the Louvre remains at $1B because it is the only one that remained in the Louvre over time. The 3 new ones are new value in the art world and they acquire their own price based on the aura they get from being almost as good as the public one but with some story about being hidden somehow. Perhaps the Louvre one appreciates in price as wealthy connoisseurs out bid each other to try to buy the long famous edition now that the Louvre knows it can buy one of the clones to appease the soup-throwing climate alarmists at a greatly reduced cost of insurance. Never assume people are rational when it comes to the price of art.

There are millions of coins sitting in bitcoin wallets from 2009 untouched, and if quantum computing ever gets close enough to crack those keys, those coins will move. The entire network will see it before it becomes a systemic problem, and the protocol will respond. That's your signal. Satoshi's coins are the canary in the quantum coal mine.

No. I assume you're familiar with the Mona Lisa. It's priceless, but let's assume it's value is $1 billion. Now assume a world where Michelangelo painted 4 Mona Lisa paintings instead of just 1, all identical in every possible way. Unfortunately the other 3 were lost in a fire 500 years ago. It's common knowledge that he painted 4 and common knowledge that the other 3 are gone forever. What is the value of the 1 remaining Mona Lisa? As it is still the only one in existence, it's value remains at $1 billion as it sits in the Louvre. Now imagine this, good news, the other 3 paintings are suddenly discovered. We thought they were destroyed but we were wrong, there isn't one Mona Lisa, there are 4. What do you think that does to the value of the one in the Louvre?

You might be assuming that Value is finite. That is not the case. Entrepreneurs create new value. It is the supply of BTC that is fixed. If you hold one BTC as more value comes into existence, you are becoming wealthier. Because your BTC is immutable and the supply is fixed, your wealth cannot be stolen from through demurrage or inflation. If we were to now increase the number of BTC from 21 to 210 M, we would decimate the value per BTC - literally. That would just be the obvious catastrophe versus the consequence of the "acceptable" 2% inflation in supply we take for granted in USD. However, if BTC had begun with a cap of 210M vs 21M, there nothing of consequence. That number is an arbitrary cap. (It is a number that results from the elegant mining algorithm but it isn't magical in some way.) What matters is that the quantity is fixed, it cannot be manipulated, yet that quantity is readily fungible. The Satoshi 4M BTC are not "lost". They already exist. They are part of the fixed supply. They are simply held out of reach of those who prefer to think up ways to acquire proxies of value rather than to do the hard work of being creators of new value. There is no AI here. It's ok to disagree with me. I welcome reading your thinking. I don't consider you a simpleton simply because we disagree. Keep the conversation collaborative. Don't have a temper tantrum.

The more btc there are available for people to earn, the less value each btc has. Imagine if the hard cap on btc were changed from 21 million to 210 million. It doesn't matter if you measure the btc in dollars, cheeseburgers or coconuts, the value of each btc would drop sharply. The same concept applies to 4 million lost btc suddenly being dumped onto the market. It makes the remaining btc less scarce. This is an incredibly basic concept, you're either too foolish to grasp the obvious or you're being purposely obtuse. Feel free to continue this discussion with the Ai of your choice.

@optigrab1984 @adamobrien Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's .. and unto BTC the things that are BTC's. Find a way to decouple from the USD economy. No one said that would be or will be easy.

Wealth is measured in the goods and services it provides. My electric bill is in dollars, my grocery bill is in dollars, my mortgage is in dollars etc. If there's potential for millions of dormant btc to be dumped onto the market sometime in the future, that is a dark cloud that will hover over the dollar value of btc until the problem is solved.

If you try to denominate back to USD, perhaps. Within the BTC economy itself, no. Also, it is not proper to say the BTC are lost. We know where they are. Rather, we are envious of those BTC which may now be owned by a deceased person or persons. We would like those to be ours, especially as we believe that the dead person might not be able to defend against us taking them. That's not discovery. That's theft. The guy created that value. It's his. Go make our own value.

It is estimated that 3 or 4 million btc are lost. If those coins are stolen and sold, it will not have any effect on the protocol. It will however have huge consequences for the price. It does not change the number of btc in the world, but price is determined on the margins. A very small percentage of homes in the country are for sale, but the sale price and those homes determines the value of all the homes including the ones that aren't for sale.

@adamobrien the possibility that some BTC moves from one owner to another is irrelevant. Movement of BTC does not debase it. If a thief steals your diamonds, there are not suddenly more diamonds in the world. If he steals your dollars, there are not more dollars. The same for gold, silver, copper, platinum, grains of sand, or BTC. A store of value is threatened by an increase in supply or debase of the currency. Dollars are a currency that was intentionally designed for debasement. Debasement robs you of your value to enrich the monetarists. Make sure you fear and protect against the real threats. stablecoin.myshopify.com/blogs/our-valu…

@jprichardson Yup you borrow dollars, then btc goes down 80 percent, then all gone. Or you borrow dollars, the company you borrowed from goes under and... All gone

Everyone's asking "what gets Bitcoin to $200K?" Wrong question. Right question: "How do we make Bitcoin useful enough that people never have to sell?" Imagine: Borrow dollars against your Bitcoin. Pay nothing back. Ever. That's what unlocks $200K. Still years away but we're getting there.
