So they will be up to 104% Tariffs if I read that right (20+34+50!), whats Xi gonna do? Retaliation is just MAD, I think the bear needs to stomp him with 1000% tariffs and just say fuck off. Ugh I feel dirty rooting for pooh, but I'll be honest between the two I know which I'd prefer.

I dont understand this massive blind spot people have about QC. QC is like the atomic bomb. The first one with it can use it, after everyone has it, MAD becomes a factor. But MAD does not apply for that first shot. Therefore, its entirely conceivable that QC would be a very real threat to BTC given the fact that bitcoin’s enemies are the very ones sponsoring the development of QC.

What you saw was financial organizations running algorithms on Wall Street and CEX's. The tell is that both Wall Street AND the Crypto Market moved in unison and dang near instantaneously. Far faster than individual retail traders or even bankers/traders listening to the news can execute orders. As a teenager I remember there being a delay between the FED press conferences and the market reaction. Trading during those conferences pretty much stopped as people waited. Wall Street has hijacked the crypto market BECAUSE it is a direct threat to the banking/financial system that already exists. Bonus points; manipulate and provoke an emotional response from the public by manipulating market conditions. We're not allowed to be not "poor" because if the "poors" become wealthy then the wealthy have to become poor. Central Crypto exchangers are the antithesis of the original intent and purpose of crypto. The community got BIG MAD when the CEX's were introduced because it opened up the crypto markets, which are the regulatory wild wild west to entities who have the know how and resources to siphon what is left of the "poors" wealth to the top faster. I'm just some rando on reddit. Take this with a massive grain of salt.

Xywzel

Unfortunately it still allows said elites to play chicken with proxy wars and by going after countries without MAD capabilities, first third parties, then allies with less importance, and then maybe test waters with limited direct offences. Problem of MAD is that most things are not worth MAD, but you don't want your response to trigger MAD either.

There’s no just one bomb. You should research MAD. Mutual Assured Destruction. Unless another small country is attacked first. Like Iran or NK. In that scenario, the rest of the world has a (small) chance of survival.

Im agreeing with you.... AND YOUR MAD? Peak reddit

BanzaiKen

Haha oh yeah. Fidelity mentioned way way back in November to all of their clients (my works 401k is through them) that they have submitted a BTC ETF and can manage assets for cheap and that you can also convert your 401k to BTC if your workplace allows it. So I went all in, literally everything. 26k I had saved plus 105k that was my retirement and full fucking sent it at like 33k. At the summer ATH I sold a coin for like 27 ETH which I'm holding onto and has been making about 10k a week, kept one so I'm not a liar and can say I'm a coiner and gave the rest back to fam. The main thing is to be reasonable. I had a ton of friends make millions in 2021 and I was MAD at myself because I had one childhood friend get down on his knees and beg me to follow him in with everything. I thought I'd be greedy and if BTC was Myspace ETH was Facebook and timed it all wrong. So I spent 2022 and 2023 watching crypto youtubers in old videos discuss 2020 and 2021 charts and gains while saving everything I had in case of emergency until I decided the reward just outweighed a risk like becoming college broke for the next couple years in your late 30s.

First off, let’s talk about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. This isn’t some petty border skirmish or abstract geopolitical game. It’s a brutal, full-scale assault on a sovereign nation. Russia launched an unprovoked invasion, which started back in 2014 with Crimea and escalated into a full-scale war in 2022. They've committed countless war crimes, from targeting civilian infrastructure to forced deportations, yet you want to play both-sides with “Russia bad, Ukraine good” as if this is just a subjective opinion. Spoiler: it’s not. Elon Musk, through Starlink, was in a unique position to help defend the people whose lives were being shattered. Instead, he decided to suddenly turn off Starlink in Crimea and sabotage Ukraine’s efforts when they needed it most. This was reportedly due to his concerns about escalating the war — as if Putin wasn’t already using war crimes as his standard playbook. Let’s look at this tired “but he’s a businessman protecting his interests” argument. Yeah, sure, let’s give a billionaire a free pass to make self-serving decisions under the guise of neutrality. But neutrality here isn’t morally neutral — Musk's actions actively helped Russia at a critical moment. The guy whose megaphone spreads conspiracy theories and Kremlin talking points should not be shielded under some capitalist fairy tale of being apolitical. He’s not impartial; he’s either clueless or straight-up reckless. Take your pick. Claiming Musk shouldn’t have to take sides is such a limp-wristed cop-out when one side is literally defending itself from obliteration, while the other side (Russia) is bombing civilians, stealing land, and threatening nukes. Sorry, but if you're too rich to stand for human rights, maybe you should just stay out of the way rather than running interference for genocidal regimes. And then there's the notion that we should feel bad for Musk because he’s an American (actually is Sour African, with his daddy making money in diamond business on the backs of basically slave labor) and doesn't want to provoke a nuclear war. Yeah, except no one was close to firing any nukes at any point due to MAD — just to keep his communications satellites running for people fighting for their lives. Also, let’s not pretend Russia’s gonna suddenly be like, “Oh, we were totally fine with everything but Starlink? That’s crossing a line.” Russia’s been the aggressor from day one, Musk enabling Russian objectives isn’t about protecting the world, it’s about feeding his ego and covering his business interests. The fact that Musk turned Starlink off to block a Ukrainian attack on Russian ships just underlines how ridiculous your defense of him is. How does this line up with “being apolitical”? It doesn’t. This wasn’t neutrality. It was siding with Russia by disabling critical communications for the victims of Russia's illegal war. And, let’s be real, anyone saying Musk shouldn’t be responsible for how Starlink is used during war is blind to how modern wars work. If his tech can save lives, he’s got a moral obligation to make sure it’s used to stop a dictator from running over an entire nation. At the very least, don’t actively interfere when the tech is already doing good. TL;DR — Elon’s not some neutral, helpless businessman being dragged into a conflict. He actively interfered in a way that helped Russia, and Russia, by the way, is the aggressor committing genocide in Ukraine. Pretending otherwise is either willful ignorance or pure corporate bootlicking.

Boon_Rebu

It can be mined on cpu, but it's not profitable. The difficulty level has increased to a point were the hashing power of even the best CPU can not produce results to be profitable. Early on, CPU mining was king, then people discovered GPUS were better at it, CPU became obsolete. Then someone created ASIC and GPUs became extinct as with additional hashing power on the network the higher the difficulty becomes. The only way you could have a blockchain on a CPU mining system is if hashing power was directly related to number of coins produced with no curve in difficulty. Basically the most hashing power on the chain the more coins generated. You would have a system that indefinitely produces coins created deflationary value till a equilibrium of people willing to hash for the value of the reward is met. or You could have a coin that has a max limited number of coins ever to be in existence, you would have a MAD arms race to see who could mine as many as possible the fastest. Cpus, GPUS, Asic all battling in out to gobble up the coins. But then, what happens when the max is reached? You would no longer get any coins as rewards for mining the next block. The miners would need to be solely paid by the fees on transactions. If there are no transactions, there are no fees, there is no point to mine it and waste money on electricity. If there are transactions, how large would the fee need to be to incentivize miners to keep mining that block instead of moving over to a different coin? If there is no hashing power, there is no coin, if there is low hashing power, the chain becomes vulnerable to 50% attack.

I told my family to buy bitcoin at 9 USD. They all laughed at me. My family doesn’t laugh anymore now. As the matter of fact I erased my entire family from my life after that, and haven’t looked back ever since. Best choice in my life. ❤️👍 That being said, your family will not laugh anymore when bitcoin is at 1 million usd in a few short years. Your family will then turn jealous and toxic instead. So, my advice is: IGNORE family BUY MORE BITCOIN HODL like a MAD MAD NEVER SELL your bitcoin. If you need money, get a loan with bitcoin as collateral. The monetary system is debt based; loans are TAX FREE.

Dude Ethereum became forced OFAC compliant because it's on AWS. Dude every chain has to make concessions, Solana chose cheap and fast transactions. It turns out, most people aggregate to the block chain with the fastest and cheapest transactions for jpegs and degen trading. Do you think I'm married to an altcoin? No, there's always a chance something better could steal Solana's total addressable market and i will happily allocate if that day comes. If decentralization is the most important factor to you then you should be 100% bitcoin. I saw VC buying sol in the bear market, I actually used the chain. What happened when sol went down? Did people migrate elsewhere? NO! They patiently waited because other chains freaking blow to use. STAY MAD

Absolutely no one should ever want a repeat of WWII…if that happens no amount of prep will help. Most of us won’t survive. Those that do may wish they didn’t. So long as rational actors are in control of all nukes, game theory says MAD is enough of a deterrent. But the stage is set for WW3 and rich people making bunkers is a tell tale sign they have been told to prepare. If China invades Taiwan…grab your tail end and kiss it goodbye. Alliance forming is always the precursor. This already has happened…BRICS, etc. USA trying to weaken Russia this has been in the planning for decades. Russia has been trying to do the same to the west. It didn’t stop with the end of the Cold War…the wall was meaningless as we entered the digital age. A new type of psychology warfare started along with covert subversion plots which are playing out in Ukraine. Davos will finalize all this planning. I don’t think WW3 can be avoided unless Trump is elected. The war machine will end but so with US hegemony using the dollar as leverage to control the world.

Cptn_BenjaminWillard

>it could make things much easier for the government to seize coins. There's probably an argument to be made that they don't need to seize coins from entities like BlackRock, with the reason being that they have the ability to do so. In other words, you don't need to exercise power when you have the threat of power. The threat becomes the power. Sort of like MAD with nukes. You don't need to use them, if the possibility of you using them prevents you from needing to.

I'll play devils advocate and risk the down votes: A few pitfalls/risks (I don't know that I would call it a steel man case against BTC however). 1. Too much centralisation in the construction of mining rigs. How many companies are there in the business of manufacturing the essential core components... answer: currently, not many (one?). 2. Too few mining pools prepared to go non-KYC and give the middle finger to the corrupt tax authorities of the legacy system (maybe this can change - but right now not so much). 3. The risk of regulatory capture remains very real. This is likely to remain a never ending battle. The central planners and other psychos at the WEF (and other 3 letter agencies) are always going to be trying to prevent freedom and self-sovereignty from gaining traction. Sometime we are winning this war sometimes we are losing... The vectors by which 4. Lack of technical innovation/progress on Layer 2 and layer 3 solutions. While Lightning is good, it is still has issues. More and better non-base layers solutions are indeed being worked on, but do you have the time preference to wait for them? 5. The apathy and unwillingness of many regular folks to take responsibility for maintaining their freedom, liberty and right to self-determination. Now maybe this isn't just about Bitcoin, but Bitcoin certainly thrives in a free market. If most of the world finds itself in politically dystopian situations that is bad not just for Bitcoin but it is bad for the wellbeing of humanity. As they say of bitcoin, come for the greed and stay for the revolution... Its all about how long have you got to seek it come to fruition (5 years, 10, 20, 50, 150?). How long will it take to bring down the system that necessitated the invention of Bitcoin? 6. Catastrophic black swan events (asteroid impact, solar storm, computer/technological hack/flaw, MAD of WW3, alien invasion). Yes, it is true that if we see a Carrington Event, bitcoin might be the least of our concerns. The fact remains, such an event would be devastating to Bitcoin. It is also worth pointing out that the BTC protocol has to be inherently robust in order to even entertain these catastrophic events as threats to bitcoin.

Depends on the income.. the “excess” income might not be enough to compensate. I will give you an example. About 2 years before paying off my house with my investment gains, I SERIOUSLY THOUGHT ABOUT SELLING MY HOUSE to go back to school full time and get into nursing or veterinarian etc. My normie parents thought it was a good idea… even to live in a car while going to school. (Not wanting to borrow student loans). I did the actual math, and concluded that if I PAYED OFF MY HOUSE INSTEAD, my income pocketed would be MORE THAN BECOMING A NURSE. I have zero regrets too, because I looked up the actual take home pay of a coworker who is USDA veterinarian and after TAXES, STUDENT LOANS AND RENT/MORTGAGE, we pocketing THE SAME AMOUNT!!! Actually, after also factoring unrealized capital gains in hard assets like bitcoin, real estate etc, my veterinarian colleague was actually POCKETING LESS BY ABOUT $10,000/yr. Zero debt making average income with zero mortgage/rent and zero student loans IS EQUIVALENT TO A NORMIE INDEBTED PERSON MAKING DOUBLE in a same state. The numbers are even more shocking when factoring the cost of living. Example, a Walmart trucker in Tennessee actually takes home about the same as a average physician living in a HIGH COST OF LIVING CITY like Brooklyn or San Francisco, after taxes, and student loan debt obligations. When adding bitcoin too the numbers, it’s even crazier…the average surgeon can’t save enough bitcoin in 2023 compared some burger flipping wagie who was stacking like a MAD MAN in 2014. Bitcoin is compounding at a rate faster than most people can keep up with.

This is kindof like the Gamestop thing. Traditional market people are SO MAD that this is happening after we predicted that it would happen, just like Gamestop. They naysay and hate BTC talking about how it's fake, no value, nothing behind it ... but really they're just mad that all of their control API's have been disabled. They have every API exploited on the FIAT currency, but they have no control over this and it's killing them.

To understand Bitcoin, you need to understand a number of different topics to fully grasp the implications of Bitcoin. I will attempt to list what I believe is a sensible order of knowledge progression. FYI, the Internet has all these classes for free. What is money, what qualities should sound money have, durability, portability, divisibility, uniformity, limited supply, and acceptability. History of money, from shells and stones to the Bretton Woods agreement for modern fiat money, Nixon's 'temporary' unpegging of USD to gold. History of empire and world control, Spainish/Portuguese expantions, the British empire and industrial revolution, to WW2 and the USA's and USD rise to the global reserve currency via a rather large millitary budget supported by MAD (go nukes) and what could come next... China, India, etc History of digital money, why it has not worked to date, what Bitcoin did differently to solve dubble spending issues, among others. Why a consumer based economy is an effect of the fiat monetary system. (If you want to see a better society/world 🌎 for the majority, this is the topic!) Finally, you will be ready to understand how Satoshi devised a means to use cryptographic security and public-key encryption to answer the Byzantine general problem in a digital electronic network and then shared this with the world for free. What a human! Peace and equality in our time ✌️

North Korea isn't capable of mutually assured destruction. No country even practices MAD as their nuclear doctrine. Nobody employs the big city leveling bombs anymore. Certainly an all out nuclear war today would be destructive, but we're looking at 6000 vs 8000 nukes instead of 40,000 vs 60,000 nukes.

I'm not saying that thigs can't get worse for America. If anything me expecting them to be in the ascend phase also means that I expect said phase to end and it *will* end in some kind of turmoil. What I am saying is that no sort of fall is imminent. Again the Soviet and Mongol Empires are not good analogs because they fell as fast as they rose. Contrast it with the Roman, British and indeed American ascend. It was a slow burning one lasting **centuries**. Similarly their fall can't but last centuries, **because* everything that worked and lead to their ascend will continue working even after setbacks. Like you well said Rome's expansion slowed from their 1st Emperor on, but it did not falter, it continued and up to the "4 good emperors" they were still an indomitable force. It *is* possible that the American republic will start giving way. Heck maybe it has already started, but remember the internal structures that made America strong will continue working, possibly for centuries more. Say the fact that of all the nations in the world it remains one of the most meritocratic societies ever. Not in the sense that everyone with merit gets to exercise it, but -let's say- "you" lose less of those people than most other societies (that are even less meritocratic). Empires that rose in a slow burn *never* go down fast for reasons like the above. Obv a nuclear war would always be a wild card, I do expect it to be less catastrophic **when** it breaks out than MAD would have you believe (prolly produce as many dead as WW II but only in a few hours/days; equally the effects would be so completely devastating that immediate cessation of hostilities in a few hours/days' time would almost instantly become the most probable outcome before MAD even materializes)... but I digress.

oh hell no I love monero, I have a trezor at the bottom of challenger deep, I like the ideals behind it but it should not be a world reserve currency, it has intrinsic value, it's fungible but.. something backed by gold (ehm Nixon) or MAD (again Nixon) either way even though monero allows for transparency (at the cost of everyone's privacy on a large enough scale - an entity that sends >65% of outputs on any given day for eternity - which is unlikely to manifest itself) I would prefer gold to set a limit, otherwise it gets out of hand really quickly both on a fiscal and criminal level cheers!

Even in a MAD scenario, most countries end up being fine. Canada gets some harsh radiation from the US silo fields being targeted with ground burst/cratering. The majority of populations in the US and Russia die (95%), but that’s mostly from initial radiation and blast waves, not fallout. There’s no modern scientific support for the idea of nuclear winter.

I don’t really think the accurately touches on the people who are MAD about Bitcoin. That part usually comes after they learn a lot more about how it works (ie. Hugely negative environmental impact, lack of compelling use cases). The people who just say “it’s too complicated” have already walked away by the time you ask about email lol
