0 sats \ 0 replies \ @ThatWhichisNotSeen 11h \ on: Sunday Survey: How many local businesses within 10 miles of your home take BTC? bitcoin
Portland metro here, btc adoption is basically zero and the few convos ive had the businesses had no interest / found it annoying to even consider accepting it.

would be interesting to see some sort of defined 'ease of starting a business' overlaid with this one.
21 sats \ 0 replies \ @ThatWhichisNotSeen 22 Nov \ parent \ on: Another solo Home Miner just mined a block bitcoin
I think he legit did it with a bitaxe or something, unbelievable odds.
50 sats \ 3 replies \ @ThatWhichisNotSeen 21 Nov \ parent \ on: Another solo Home Miner just mined a block bitcoin
I believe the person that solo mined the latest one using self-hosted public pool verified it on reddit and posted his setup details, said what he plans to do with it, etc.
I cant get onto reddit so unfortunately can't provide a link. I think it was about a month ago.

As long as they got enough hash rate to average a block in 24 hours or less...doesn't matter to me.

36 sats \ 1 reply \ @ThatWhichisNotSeen 20 Nov \ parent \ on: House Hunting bitcoin_Mining
hmmm i see ya i just found a cool way to look up average rates by utility provider. then its just a matter of finding where they provide utility services and searching on zillow in cities in that coverage area. and i suppose if you actually got trigger happy just gotta double-check with the seller what the rate is.

how do you search the electricity rates when looking at houses ? I love the idea, btw.
30 sats \ 1 reply \ @ThatWhichisNotSeen 12 Nov \ on: Rant: If you think 50 year mortgages is debt slavery, you don't understand money econ
"In fact, a 50-year fixed rate mortgage (assuming it's fixed rate) probably wouldn't exist in the free-market without some sort of government backing."
  • No chance in hell there would be one. That's the same story for the 30-yr fixed, we currently have a nationalized mortgage scheme that started out quasi-private 50+ years ago but never was a product available in the wild (and still is not except in the US).
And you are right, this is a good trade IF you are OK with the risk of a structural housing re-price down. In that case, u might be fucked (devil will be in the details of the note developed for such a product).

aren't today's nuclear bombs orders of magnitude more powerful than the two bombs dropped on Japan?
0 sats \ 4 replies \ @ThatWhichisNotSeen 11 Nov \ parent \ on: How does illegal immigration affect housing and health care 'affordability'? Politics_And_Law
naive. For every trade, there is a liability and an asset, a maker and a taker. remove 33 million people at once without proper settlement, and no one can know how much damage that would do, or even if it would benefit the people you think it will.
