I don’t know that anyone said that? Did anyone claim SVB failed because of crypto exposure? Anyway, the liquidity guarantee is costless - if it...

FWIW, the liners are packed out on my RX 130 LV, and while I knew it would happen, obviously, there’s more slop than I was expecting. Went to the...

Moving forward: Love to see a Democratic Socialist taking $1M from a crypto bro. Like taking candy from a baby.

Cursed LinkedIn profile:

There are a lot of RSs: https://issuu.com/zuzupopo/docs/lang...t=new-get-link (Last year’s catalog. Couldn’t find 2023) I think only...

One thing the crypto bros are good for: a guys already programmed a smart contract and posted it for public review.

This guy seems to be about to enter a real bet for $1M (or 2 bets for $1M each?) to $26k that Botcoin is going to be valued at more than $1M USD...

I had to zoom in. Thought maybe you were showing that dog shit was now on dirt instead of snow…

Maybe, depending on your definition of accidental and unskilled: This is a pretty deliberate maneuver to dump fuel on the drone at close...

This seems like a reasonable and insightful summation of the SVB situation: ...

But that’s exactly what happened to SVB, right? They had Treasuries marked as hold to maturity, no plan to sell, but were all of a sudden forced to...

Not talking politics here, just preferred policy. Wouldn’t want anyone to think this is polyass. Maybe school children should consider investing...

You keep describing apocalyptic scenarios in which Bitcoin is absolutely not prepared to protect you from.

You can buy a cup of coffee with dollars in your pocket. To use Bitcoin you’ll need an intermediary. How many global transactions currently happen...

Chase Bank is literally one dude, whereas mining pools are made up of multiple investors, you see.

But you said Bitcoin allows people to send money quickly, without an intermediary. Lightning network is an intermediary. Bitcoin can’t scale...

Maybe, but the deposit guarantee acts as a necessary circuit breaker so things don’t become self-fulfilling.

I think the issue with DYOR instead of having a guaranteed backstop is that it’s going to lead to runs.

Sorry, what’s the maximum transactions/second rate again?

Postal Banking?

Seems to me like regulators going forward need to acknowledge that implicit guarantee and make it explicit, which is going to require more strict...

I don’t know man, seems like maybe you’re so bogged down in the nuance that you’re completely missing the bigger picture here…

Just learned yesterday that a FIA World Rally race was once held on the roads around my family’s cottage: Smiths Falls is a touch more low...

The only way I see Bitcoin helping here is if miners build a shit tonne of green infrastructure for mining purposes, then BTC goes tits up and that...

“I’m very concerned about equality, and the less fortunate, so I’ll be voting GOP.” Ok dude.

Picturing OG yelling at all the kids at the hill to go home until they grow up.

True. We know for a fact Putin hangs out here, we’ve all seen him. Can’t be giving him any ideas.

Guyana Buffalo. That a thing anyone’s done yet? Read they have some feral herds of water buffalo there.
