It has 3 main utilities for me:
-
Sleep tracking. Length & quality of sleep are important for health and longevity. Having a low heart-rate while sleeping is hugely important for long-term health. Having the watch measuring my heart rate has gamified it for me. Bad choices during the day means higher heart-rate at night.
-
I HATE my phone making noises at all. I keep it silenced 100% of the time. My watch vibrates whenever a text/call comes in. So, I don't miss notifications, but I don't have to bother everyone around me with annoying sounds.
-
Exercise tracking. Being able to monitor my heart rate during heavy cardio is important. This adds a gamification element to physical fitness. I try to beat my previous numbers, and improve my biometrics over time.
These 3 things make the smart watch worth it. Otherwise, I would not own one.
You can call me a fiat maxi and all that but at the end of the name calling I still have more Bitcoin than you.
No you don't. You have more shares of msty than me. I have cold storage Bitcoin. They aren't the same thing.
Why did you stop on Step 3?!?!
There must be another step. What's the point in "tracing identity" if they aren't going to do something with it?
Wrench attack seems the most obvious. What else, though?
There's a small winery just outside of Glacier Park in Columbia Falls, Montana that is also taking Bitcoin for payment. Called "White Raven Winery".
If you're ever in Montana, you should absolutely stop by and meet the owner. You guys would definitely hit if off.
I pretty much only visit countries where I know I'll be able to spend a lot of Bitcoin. No point in visiting countries with little or no Bitcoin adoption.
I completely agree.
It's still an interesting story. The way this dude was able to predict that. I can appreciate how rad it is without caring about the actual price predictions.
It's interesting to me that Uranium has been on a downtrend while other commodities such as copper and gold have been trending up.
There's a real ramp up happening in the nuclear industry, especially with the roll-out of SMR's. How is Uranium not ripping along with other commodities?? Very odd to me. Seems like a good buying opportunity, but I haven't looked into it much either.
They are allowing humans to live on earth. They have "owned" the earth since before humans were here.
Worth it, though.
Try it just once before you die. The Spartacus scene where they're dripping in gold with golden masks on... but instead of gold, use nature's "liquid gold"... i.e. Olive Oil.
But I have an Olive Oil fetish..... might not work the same for you.
The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft my extra-life from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Fiatbad, was to live again.
That is why I am your king.
Every transaction completely private without exception... it seems to me it keeps the door wide-open for abuse or crime JUST my opinion.
More importantly, it defeats the purpose of a globally distributed, auditable ledger. For base layer money we don't want XMR level of "privacy". For the kind of spending XMR people are doing, they should be on layer 2's like Lightning anyway.
Another point @expatriotic seems to be missing is future development of LN. In a few years, things like BOLT12 will likely be so ubiquitous that no one has to have "expert-level knowledge and perfect execution every time." Lightning will just be that private and easy to use. Don't go off and create your own blockchain, ffs! Use and build better layer 2's instead.
Belief and faith over humility.
"God" beliefs have caused more suffering than anything else throughout history.
It takes humility to say "I do not know, therefore I will not impose unnecessary suffering on others". Some say this leads to nihilism. Sure it sucks, but it's better than the alternative.
