Maybe if we'd rebuild homes for the people of Palestine and spend the money - spent on wiping them off the face of the earth - on education and infrastructure instead... maybe, just maybe, there could be peace?
Oh wait... that's silly.

Context: My ISP switched my line from DSL to Fibre last night without having send the corresponding hardware. After talking to 3 support agents in the morning they were going to get back to me, which they didn't. So I called again, spoke to three more agents until finally I got one who l told me straight up that they've fucked up. However, he then stated that the current "status" doesn't allow him to simply send me the hardware. The new connection has to be activated and only then can I put in an order for the new lease-hardware.
So I had to buy one and the things are like €200 a pop.

2026-08-17 11:35:37 UTC

364,400 sats for a fucking fibre router cause my ISP didn't send one? 😡

Leider ist es aber so das die EU mit ihren Agendas mittlerweile das Kulturerbe von EU Ländern quasi löscht. Es ist egal ob wir dafür die Migrationskriese, woke agendas oder andere Agendas unter die Lupe nehmen. Wenn das so weiter geht gibt es bald überhaupt kein Geschlecht, keine Religion, keine Tradition und keine Kultur mehr.
Und die Bürger von 27 Ländern lassen es einfach alles geschehen bis wir dann irgendwann - voraussichtlich zu spät - sagen, wie konnte es so weit kommen? Das manche darauf keinen BOCK haben kann ich verstehen und ich denke es ist okay diese Gedanken in einem Lied zu veräußern - auch ohne gleichzeitig zu versuchen eine Lösung zu bieten.
Dier Lösung ist klar, #endtheEU oder startet einen Bürgerkrieg. Oder, nehmt alles so hin wie es ist. Das blöde "alles gut" was Leute inzwischen nur noch von sich geben kann ich inzwischen nicht mehr hören. Nichts ist gut aber man kann halt nicht von Menschen die vom Staat erzogen wurden erwarten das sie sich gegen den Staat stellen.

I think I'm being misunderstood. If we park 50% of the supply in wall street vaults then Bitcoin will never receive "money" status outside of a very small niche of people who use Bitcoin as it was intended to be used.

Fun fact
In many countries jewellery is just a status symbol. However, in Asia (and probably other countries) many people buy jewellery as a hedge against inflation but their jewellery is 24c gold not the trash 12-18c sold (for lots of money) elsewhere. So they basically buy their jewellery by weight / gold price where others pay mostly for the brand name.
If you buy a gold necklace for €200 today in the EU it's probably ~18c. If you take it to the pawnshop an hour later they'll offer you something like €25-50. The Asian person buys a 24c necklace for the gold price and sells it for the gold price at the time of sale. give or take a few points the store takes.
Just thought I throw that out there. Btw, I also don't wear jewellery any more. Don't even wear a watch.

2026-08-11 16:16:03 UTC

this is actually really bad. half of the supply is not circulating. That's many things but certainly not good for Bitcoin's "mass adoption" as MONEY.

I guess the pool miners have less hash or they don't have a rig dedicated to hashing RandomX. Their thought process is probably something like "I rather stack some than none" when pool mining. Personally I prefer an algo that discourages pool mining. Pools pose the risk of dominating a network - as we can see today with Bitcoin.

You can run your own monerod node and have XMRig mine directly against it, with no pool at all. Your estimated pool luck would be roughly 1 block every 4 days at 2 MH/s or every 19 hours at 10 MH's

Couple of the boys asked yesterday for the chart while I was streaming. My response was, there is nothing to see atm - that's why I haven't been sharing any TA's. There is still nothing to see until we break the market resistance and start moving around above it.
TLDR: We're still in a very cheap accumulation phase.

You know, you can also not be on either side of a fork and just let the network do it's thing. Everything beyond that is just noise and people spreading their opinion for one or the other trying to rally their loyal followers to support one or the other.
Here is the thing. It doesn't matter. You either end up with a duplicate of your holdings on the new chain or you end up dumping your holdings on the current chain because the new chain gains consensus. The longer chain will win and the commercial miners will (most likely) follow the money -> the current chain.
