Used Ledn.io/wbd for the first time yesterday. Approved in minutes. Collateral sent and confirmed within the hour. Funding received in my bank account within 4 hours. Land purchase incoming. The rate beat the best quote I was approved for at Tesco Bank UK, who expected me to wait for delivery of a credit contract to sign and return, and up to two weeks for funds to arrive. We are crossing the Rubicon.

New Years Vondelkerk Church arson attack in Amsterdam.

Now do Starmer.

Happy 17th Genesis Block Day.

Zero rotation from gold and silver peaks to Bitcoin seems highly unlikely over the last 5 days. Inescapable manipulated market vibes. Paper Bitcoin fuckery.

GM. Another day another violent Bart back to 87K. Higher lows though. Feels like the safety barriers are gonna get torn off soon.

Adam Livingston on X: Bitcoin makes smart people look stupid for a long time. You watch everyone around you get richer doing the obvious things. Stocks ripping. Real estate flipping. AI narratives changing every week. Group chats celebrating gains you consciously opted out of. You sit there holding something that feels dead, mocked, boring, and vaguely embarrassing to explain. You doubt yourself quietly because being right too early feels identical to being delusional. That’s the tax. Bitcoin tests whether you can be correct without applause. Whether you can hold conviction without social proof. Whether you can watch the wrong people win for years and still not flinch. Most people fail Bitcoin because they couldn’t survive looking crazy long enough. The payout comes later. The cost is paid upfront.
