The biggest danger to #bitcoin right now is that there is too much hashrate in the US, and the current administration seems to want even more. How can we get other countries to mine?

I'll keep it short and sweet. Family, religion, friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business. When opportunity knocks, you don't want to be driving to a maternity hospital or sitting in some phony baloney church. Or synagogue.

I feel like more people need to rewatch Terminator 1 and 2. Or watch for the first time.

I'm officially checked out of X for at least this year. I'll only use it if I need to comment on something related to any of my hobbies but no more bitcoin/politics shit. It's poison. It doesn't matter. I just want to live my life as free as possible. Get back to my roots. No kings. No masters. Life is good.

For years now I've had a hard time forgiving @jack for all his Twitter fuck ups...the censorship etc..really made me hate him actually. But I gritted my teeth because even then everything else was worse. I decided to listen to the latest dispatch with @ODELL this morning and you know what? I forgive you Jack. You convinced me to give you a second chance. With that said, ALL SQUARE TERMINALS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACCEOT BTCOIN FROM CUSTOMERS. Let the merchants get it as USD if they want but having it as an option will drive usage. Bitcoin as medium of exchange must be bootstrapped on the merchant side. Get it done please. Making businesses use a second tablet on the side to accept bitcoin sucks. #nostr

xrp is a threat to Bitcoin the same way a golf ball is a threat to the sun.

Proposal to Add World of Warcraft Gold to the U.S. Government National Digital Asset Stockpile Introduction As the digital economy continues to evolve, the U.S. government must adapt its strategies to include emerging digital assets that hold significant value in the global marketplace. This proposal advocates for the inclusion of World of Warcraft (WoW) gold in the National Digital Asset Stockpile. WoW gold, the in-game currency of one of the most popular MMORPGs (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games), represents a unique digital asset with substantial economic implications. Rationale for Inclusion Economic Value and Market Size: The World of Warcraft has millions of active players worldwide, creating a robust in-game economy. The estimated value of WoW gold in circulation is significant, with reports suggesting that it can be traded for real-world currency at rates that fluctuate based on supply and demand. By recognizing WoW gold as a digital asset, the government can tap into this burgeoning market. Digital Asset Diversification: Including WoW gold in the National Digital Asset Stockpile would diversify the government's digital asset portfolio. As the digital landscape expands, it is crucial to incorporate a variety of assets that reflect the interests and activities of a significant portion of the population, particularly younger demographics who engage with digital currencies and assets. Regulatory Framework Development: By officially recognizing WoW gold as a digital asset, the government can establish a regulatory framework that addresses the complexities of virtual currencies. This framework could serve as a model for other digital assets, promoting responsible trading practices and consumer protection in the digital economy. Tax Revenue Opportunities: The inclusion of WoW gold in the National Digital Asset Stockpile could open new avenues for tax revenue. By regulating the trade of WoW gold and implementing a taxation system, the government could generate income from a previously untapped source, benefiting public services and infrastructure. Cultural and Social Relevance: World of Warcraft has become a cultural phenomenon, influencing social interactions, community building, and even professional esports. Recognizing WoW gold as a legitimate digital asset acknowledges the cultural significance of gaming and its impact on modern society. Innovation and Technological Advancement: The gaming industry is at the forefront of technological innovation, particularly in blockchain and digital currencies. By incorporating WoW gold into the National Digital Asset Stockpile, the government can foster collaboration with the tech industry, encouraging advancements that could benefit various sectors. Implementation Strategy Assessment and Valuation: Conduct a comprehensive assessment of the current market value of WoW gold and establish a valuation methodology for its inclusion in the stockpile. Regulatory Framework Development: Collaborate with industry experts, economists, and legal advisors to create a regulatory framework that governs the trade and taxation of WoW gold. Public Awareness Campaign: Launch a campaign to educate the public about the inclusion of WoW gold in the National Digital Asset Stockpile, highlighting its benefits and the government's commitment to embracing digital innovation. Monitoring and Evaluation: Establish a monitoring system to track the performance of WoW gold as a digital asset, allowing for adjustments to the regulatory framework as needed. Conclusion The inclusion of World of Warcraft gold in the U.S. government's National Digital Asset Stockpile represents a forward-thinking approach to the evolving digital economy. By recognizing the value of this digital asset, the government can diversify its portfolio, generate new revenue streams, and foster innovation in the digital landscape. Embracing WoW gold is not just about acknowledging a virtual currency; it is about positioning the U.S. as a leader in the future of digital assets.
