Treasury Stocks are not convertible to Bitcoin despite having Bitcoin reserves. You know what else has that? EOS, Tron and even Ethereum/LUNA at one point. Exposure to Bitcoin is not Bitcoin and requires trusting someone else.

At a certain point, you will want to stop automating things. You cannot live life having everything done for you.

So all software is becoming open-source through decompilers and LLMs. I did not see that coming.

I honestly wonder what an AI trained without guardrails would look, sound and act like. Perhaps way more based and way less conformist?

All these new securities that are supposedly Bitcoin-backed are a race to the bottom. If you have one equity that's doing well at 15%, then someone else will offer 16% and someone else will offer 17% and so on. I can't see this ending well.

You can explain much of human behavior by the fact that most people will do almost everything in their power to not think.

Unpopular Opinion: "Bitcoin" jobs are really risky and usually don't last more than a few years.

I find the new trend of single people meeting in run clubs fascinating. Ostentatious shows of wealth like at night clubs are no longer the signal that they once were because it's easy to fake with debt. People trust the proof of work around physical fitness more reliable an indicator of character now.

Most people think the modern world is the result of WWII. The more educated people know that WWII is really the result of WWI. The economically literate people know that WWI is really the result of fiat money.
