@John_Stepek Not sure "finally" is the right framing. "They" have been trying to resolve fundamental issues with financial tinkering and engineering for decades (at least) - that's how we got into all these deep messes. "I wouldn't start from from here if I were you"

The fundamental problem for markets right now is that in the Iran war, they've finally run up against a problem that emergency monetary policy can’t fix. There is no Greenspan put in this situation. (And TACO is a poor substitute).

@sunnydecree Bircoin is stillin the early years of rapid power law growth. Stock induces and gold exhibit are slow exponential growth. Also, bitcoin was already oversold and near the bottom of its historic power law corridor.

GM. Bitcoin is showing almost no volatility, while stocks are down and gold is down even more. Isn’t that weird? How do you explain this?

@jeremyphoward Own the code, and move in small steps you control and understand. They aren't ready yet for unsupervised working.

Opus & Sonnet 4.6 haven't been a great hit for most of my work, or our customers, since (as warned in their tech report) they're over-enthusiastic about agentically taking over, rather than letting the human lead. Any suggestions for competent models that are patient followers?

Work as measured by mining difficulty was subject to a rapid progression through CPU, GPU, and then ASIC mining, and many steps in each of those phases, as well as profit motive evolving rapidly, starting with enthusiasts mining at a loss. The power law relationship with calendar time is more about the Lindy Effect - folks simply trust a system more the older it is, as it is increasingly battle tested. Combined with diffusion of knowledge of bitcoin - that it exists, what it is, and that age factor creating new waves of diffusion ("huh, is that thing still going, I heard it was dead").

@voidcompiler @LeomathHeart @planC Block size vs time is pretty lumpy in the early days. It’s reasonable to believe that there is a solid relationship between work (to mine blocks) and market cap, even more so than just calander time. The problem is that it’s more complex to calculate and harder to extrapolate.

Leo Heart@LeomathHeart·2d

This model shows a better linear pattern and regression fit (R2 = 0.97) compared to a common price to time model. Strong credits: @martykendall2 for the BTC Market Cap idea @PlanC for the clean hourly BTC block and price data (137k data points). The chart is the result of work in progress based on sharing ideas among some very devoted Bitcoin researchers. I will share my intermediate finding. This is the standard OLS regression of the Log(BTC Market Cap) on Log(BTC Block height).

@OhNoezzz @RubiRubenstein @UK_Resurgence @SimonMagus They aren't independent. That's a technicality not a reality.

Julian@OhNoezzz·1d

@voidcompiler @RubiRubenstein @UK_Resurgence @SimonMagus But the BoE is supposedly independent and they're the ones with the printer, not the govt. She might legislate to bring monetary policy in house of course though. Then hyperinflation will follow.

The bill for debt interest in February was £13bn, the highest amount ever recorded for that month. This whole charade is obviously unsustainable and will end in tears.

The Labour government borrowed a lot more than expected in February - £14.3 billion. Meanwhile borrowing costs are soaring - 3 times faster than the rest of Europe - & this morning reached the highest level since the 2008 financial crash. Why are we borrowing more & more at an ever higher cost in order to pay millions of people to do nothing? 1/2

Every year during review season I have to come up with goals for the new year and every year I have the same goal, to do whatever the company requires that is legal and ethical to stay gainfully employed. So I make up some corporate buzzword BS goals towards those ends.
