I guess I'm just impressed since they've been around for so long and since they stopped building computers long ago I have no idea what they do!
Per Google AI mode:
"As of its latest update in December 2025, Metaplanet holds a total of 30,823 BTC with an average acquisition cost of approximately $108,070 per bitcoin"
They were the toast of the town a couple of months ago, it's not surprising they might be spooked a little now that they're well underwater.
(Insert "First Time?" meme here for their share-holders)
Ultimately nothing- it's just a minor deterrent but at least it incurs some cost. Same as sats here.
To me the blue check clearly means "I'm paying money for this account so I'm more likely to be a human" and/or "I support this website through my subscription", and/or "I'm trying to earn Elon bucks"
They have done good job recently surfacing the geolocation of posters so we can see who has been larping as an american. Along with community notes they at least appear to doing more than every other major platform. God only knows what's even happening on TikTok.
In the end I'm not sure it will matter as we rapidly spiral towards a dead internet.
Blue checkmark is not deceptive at all. Outside of the first few months of people complaining about the clear change in policy, it has long been clear that the purpose is to levy a monetary cost on posting to attempt to limit bots, similar to here and other older concepts on charging for email. IG now has the exact same thing. The old blue check verification system was completely corrupt and non-transparent at all, people paying insiders for checkmarks etc.
I hate half of the toxic stuff that's posted on X but it's the best free speech major social media platform and that's why I paid for a blue checkmark on day 1.
Nice!!! daily thread for us fiat shitcoiners to trauma bond with fellow degenerates 🤗
Unfortunately out of powder so no action for me today... eyeing picking up more IREN though...
Forget Mars, they need to prioritize getting Starlink on every commercial airflight... total gamechanger compared to old airplane wifi.
yeah! Or perhaps at least weekly?
It seems embarrassing an a lot of inertia to create a whole individual post sometimes just to say "YOLO'd into some IREN calls wbu?" :)
Is there a way to do a daily recurring thread in a territory like the Stacker Saloon? It would be nice to have a nice place to discuss our daily trades/moves without the pressure of starting a whole thread.
