I think it's bullish because if they are hiking 0.75 it means they think they have this much room to continue to hike, meaning they are confident that the economy can absorb these interest rate levels and not tank.
Either that, or people think 0.75 is the last of the hiking and they are going to have to start cutting rates and doing QE soon enough, so people are front running the next Fed move.
I feel you, for sure, but I think it's just because bitcoin is so new and actually requires learning. Eventually, this stuff will just come second nature to people. Same like you have a supercomputer in your pocket and probably don't think about it much.
I think it's just a matter of finding a balance between wanting to learn, but also realizing you can't learn everything. You can't be a mining expert AND and privacy expert AND a super coder AND a lightning expert etc. Use bitcoin for what you need it for, and enjoy learning about something you think is interesting.
Anybody know of a way to invoice people in dollars but receive bitcoin? I'm looking to start doing some online consulting. Zaprite works great, but you receive whatever payment method they choose.

I like the idea of a main board and a follow board to allow for a bit of curation.

That could create an interesting incentive to follow quality accounts early before prices go up.
Everyone's talking about microlancer in here so far but my issue with that site is that it's microtasks like liking tweets or doing monotonous work for small bits of sats. For jobs. Upwork is great because it's middle ground. Not quite "jobs" like here at stacker news and bitcoiner jobs, but not quite microtasks. You can get long term gigs and quality remote work on UpWork.
