Streams incidentally de-risk financial relations by affording information, continuously signalling payer solvency.

@hexonaut Its the act of looping - deposit asset, withdraw debt, sell debt for asset, repeat.

Do people refer to all spot leverage as "looping" or is it just correlated assets? (IE stETH / ETH or sUSDS / USDC) I've heard both used.

BTC is a perpetual bid on M2 emissions.

@neha Prediction market will allow people to insure by buying odds in quantum break.

My take on Bitcoin and quantum computing: nehanarula.org/2026/04/03/bit… tl;dr: I think the risk is high enough to warrant prioritizing designing, implementing, and evaluating post-quantum signature schemes and consensus upgrades in Bitcoin now.

@EliBenSasson Shitcoin until proven otherwise

If you truly believe in freedom and self-sovereignity, you shouldn't be calling anything a shitcoin. Don't like it? Don't hold it. No reason to shit on it.

@neverthatever @harleyf @davidmarcus What? Lol this makes zero sense, see a therapist for your own sake

A man rammed a truck into a synagogue that houses a children’s daycare. Kids were inside. Don’t spin this into politics. Don’t make it about foreign policy. It’s a daycare in a Jewish community center. That should horrify everyone.

@VeraGavrilovna @harleyf @davidmarcus Thats what makes you a terrorist that has either given up on democratic values or never understood them in the first place.

@AmethystWizard @harleyf @davidmarcus "'Your side'" simplification is why Palestinian infants were left to die of thirst and exposure. One man's "suicidal predatory vigilante" is another man's "humane brother with compassion for the helpless."

@VeraGavrilovna @harleyf @davidmarcus ‘Your side’ simplification is exactly why you sympathize with suicidal predatory vigilantes. What I’m reading is peoples values have shifted to recognize their fellow citizens, civilians as enemy combatants.

Where are these "more than half the replies" that won't condemn terrorism? That's not what I'm reading. People are overwhelmingly condemning attacks on small children - Jewish or not. You should be comforted. What you mean, perhaps, is that people are also pointing out all the small children your side has killed. Tens of thousands died hellish deaths at jewish hands. Condemn that.

@edfillingstati1 @harleyf @davidmarcus You can’t hide your twisted worldview by redefining genocide, a word invented by a Jew to describe the specific horror of the holocaust.

@AmethystWizard @harleyf @davidmarcus And there you go again...

@edfillingstati1 @harleyf @davidmarcus Yeah, the final solution was put off course in 1945, maybe stop trying to kill jews at this point - seems like a dead end

@AmethystWizard @harleyf @davidmarcus Whine whine whine poor us, its fcvkin endless.

@jimmy_wales @t4t5 How is it hard to use, did you break your fingers? Or get a brain aneurysm? You realize, as an internet entrepreneur it’s software right? That means you can program a GUI to make it easy to use, or do you have dementia now?

@t4t5 Maybe. But I don't think that's really likely. Hard to use, volatile, not accepted as currency anywhere. It's fine for hobbyists/enthusiasts but I think gold/silver/jewelry/real estate/fine art/etc will remain dominant as safe haven store of value.

People who think that Bitcoin is going to zero are likely mistaken. The design is robust enough that it will continue to exist in perpetuity, barring some currently unforeseen breakdown in cryptography or a surprise 51% attack (even then, a fork would carry on I would imagine). What is can do, though, is decline to a price consistent with hobbyist tinkering. Because it is a complete failure as a currency, as a store of value, etc., it isn't going to become the dominant money of the future. So I'd suggest a 2050 price target of under $10,000 in today's dollars. Possibly much lower.

@acidiclemon2 @jimmy_wales @TravisTraction I accept your apology.

@AmethystWizard @jimmy_wales @TravisTraction Have fun.

@acidiclemon2 @jimmy_wales @TravisTraction I’m waiting for an apology, from you, because you know that was in response to your criticism of bitcoin and I will defend bitcoin all day long.

@AmethystWizard @jimmy_wales @TravisTraction Again, this is the point where you should have clarified you were not talking about Bitcoin. Instead, you insulted me, and argued about Bitcoin. You're the one who owes apologies here. x.com/AmethystWizard…
