Look like the sat to dollar exchange rate has been pretty stable for the past month. That's neat. But it looks like Steak and Shake has gone from, "Contact us for questions," to "STEAKTOSHI" levels of being down the rabbit hole. Has anyone else noticed this?

Next month, I'm assuming they'll be blasting Eisenhower's military industrial complex speech over the speakers and have quotes by Hayek on the walls.

Funny you mention… I noticed that “tryspeed” thing this time around better because it was more obviously presented as a website. I check it out and, spoiler alert for anybody that hasn’t, it’s their payment processor and, I’m assuming, custodian. Given that they said they’re saving 50% on fees with the bitcoin payments, if they can those guys and go self sovereign with darthcoin guides, they can also grab that other 49.9%! …so here’s hoping!

Even that they use a custodian, is a good start. Like that they can test their customers response and see if they can make / worth the next step (running their own node.

Later they will find out that is not about saving in fees, but about FUCK THE BANKS.

For sure, and I bet that’s a great company providing a needed services for companies dipping their toes in the water, but yeah, it’s always fun to see folks fall further down the rabbit hole.
