I just finished listening to the Bitcoin conference recordings of Lumis Scott Trump and RFK and my favorite might actually be Scott because when Scott and Lumis start talking together they're actually quite compelling think about where we were 8 years ago with all this compared to now and it's mind-boggling

I'm not sure he was talking to me

trying to listen to Trump right now and it's just impossible he's just so dumb the signal to noise ratio on him talking is so low I'll wait for the summaries from you guys to see if he said anything that actually matters the fact that he's speaking in a #Bitcoin conference at all is super powerful for the asset

how to buy #bitcoin: create a weighted ladder of buy orders buy $10. at 64k $20 at 63k $30 at 62k etc all the way down to the most recent low of 53k then the next time it does a little Spike down like it did earlier today you'll at least get some of it and if it crashes hard you'll get a whole lot I use River to do this but there are some other UIs that work way better, like bitrex

Edison = Satoshi. today is 1895. #Bitcoin is just getting started The history of electricity involves many significant discoveries and developments over centuries: 1. **Ancient Discoveries**: The ancient Greeks discovered that rubbing fur on amber caused static electricity. 2. **17th-18th Centuries**: - **William Gilbert** (1600): Coined the term "electricity" and conducted early studies on magnetic forces and static electricity. - **Otto von Guericke** (1660): Invented the first static electricity generator. - **Benjamin Franklin** (1752): Demonstrated that lightning is a form of electrical discharge with his famous kite experiment. 3. **19th Century**: - **Alessandro Volta** (1800): Invented the voltaic pile, the first chemical battery, which produced a steady electric current. - **Hans Christian Ørsted** (1820): Discovered the relationship between electricity and magnetism, leading to the study of electromagnetism. - **Michael Faraday** (1831): Discovered electromagnetic induction, which led to the development of electric generators. - **Georg Ohm** (1827): Formulated Ohm's Law, describing the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance. - **James Clerk Maxwell** (1864): Developed the theory of electromagnetism, unifying electricity and magnetism into a single theory. 4. **Late 19th Century**: - **Thomas Edison** (1879): Invented the practical incandescent light bulb and developed the first electrical power distribution system. - **Nikola Tesla** (1888): Developed alternating current (AC) systems and designed the AC induction motor. - **George Westinghouse**: Promoted AC for power distribution, leading to the widespread adoption of AC over Edison's direct current (DC). 5. **20th Century and Beyond**: - **1920s-1940s**: Development of large-scale power plants and national electrical grids. - **1940s-1960s**: Advances in semiconductor technology, leading to the invention of transistors and the development of modern electronics. - **1970s-Present**: The rise of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, and ongoing innovations in energy storage and smart grid technology. These milestones mark the evolution of electricity from a curiosity to a fundamental aspect of modern civilization, powering homes, industries, and technology worldwide.
