So the $342B question is…does the US govt/Federal Reserve/FDIC bailout Silicon Valley Bank and its customers which include crypto companies, in which case they now have directly supported and bailed out crypto heading into what will be a tense election year, OR, do they let it collapse and teach other banks about counterparts risk and deal with contagion later? Remember, they bailed out Bear Stearns so JPM could acquire them, but ultimately let Lehman fail. Which happens here? They’ve seen this movie and remember Powell comes from the private equity sector. He knows the game quite well and probably almost all the players. Oh to be a fly on the wall in that office!

This guy, Philip Bowen, is so insanely talented. During part of the pandemic, I used to watch some of his live shows and watch him do songs without sheet music and sometimes strictly by ear. He’s about to drop an album now. This is what Proof-of-Work looks like!

#[0]​ and #[1]​, if there are 0 fees showing on the WoS side sending to #Strike over lightning, and Strike shows 0 fees…why am I short 50k sats? I sent 6,958,606 (in 3 separate ~$500 transactions) or about $1558 (@BTC $22,400) and only received $1546 (or 6,901,785. Trying to understand where the missing $12 (57k Sats) went or to whom in the transaction? #4theBabies

Alright Nostrovia, I need your help! Time to tackle that “other stuff” category and do some good with our zaps addiction. My favorite non-profit, Infant Crisis Services, is hosting one of their annual fundraisers tonight. They provide food, formula and diapers for infants to toddlers 4 times a year thru age 3. Many clients only use this service once, some as many as they are aloud, but everyone of them is in a dire situation to provide the base necessities for their babies. Infant Crisis provides these services regardless of income/marital status/employment status/etc and gets no donations from United Way or state/federal funding to allow them to serve everyone. So my ask is this: I’ve cleared my #[0]​ attached to this account leaving 100k Sats as the first donation (pictured below). Every single Sat donated to this post or that hits my wallet tonight, will go to feeding and diapering the most vulnerable beings in our society. I’m going to match up to 500k total (an addtl 400k). Can we get to 1 million Sats #4theBabies ? Once all donations are in, I will make a public donation from Nostr via their website (or transfer directly if they want to provide a wallet address). Either way, proof will be provided thus I be publicly ridiculed forever.

Is the mempool actually clear?! Man, quickest project rugpull ever. It’s like when your incentives correlate to the outcome, you get equilibrium. 🤔 image
