Agree. I try to self-analyze why I only figured this out in 2022 or so and not in 2018/2019 though. Not sure yet but most likely it was that I was very busy in those years, and I probably didn't pay enough attention to what was going on around me, and 2020/2021/2022 were strange years where I had to do stuff like make comprehensive flight plans to evade travel bans.

He may, but that's a symptom not a cause.

I think about it like this:

  • Are we surprised of shenanigans? (we aren't)
  • Would we be surprised in 2022? (maybe)
  • Did we properly prepare for this prior to the start of the mess we're in now, in 2018 or so? (Personally, I didn't do enough)

Shoutout to fullynoded

https://github.com/Fonta1n3/FullyNoded

This dev is still grinding out code when no one in the space really talks about this wallet anymore

reply

I do. I always include FullyNoded in my guides and I will always talk about apps that matter and I used / tested.

I am not paid by anyone, like others... You do not hear about FullyNoded so much because they do not pay influencers and podcasters to talk about.

Doesn't this chart just scream: "We know what we're doing?"

How am I supposed to interpret the wiggly dashed arrow to the stars at the right-hand side of the chart? They say it's "orderly"

I feel a bit hesitant to press skeuomorphic buttons. It's probably because real buttons do real things.

Yemen | Major Bank Suspends Operations Amid Humanitarian CrisisYemen | Major Bank Suspends Operations Amid Humanitarian Crisis

The International Bank of Yemen suspended all operations following recent sanctions imposed by the U.S. Treasury Department. The shutdown puts pressure on Yemen’s fractured financial system, where two rival monetary systems and currencies operate in parallel: one under the internationally recognized government in Aden and the other controlled by the Houthis in Sanaa. Across both regions, prices continue to rise, salaries go unpaid, and public services are deteriorating. As confidence in formal banking erodes, some Yemenis have found safety in Bitcoin and stablecoins to store and move value outside the country’s fragmented banking infrastructure.

I know I have financial privilege but can we please stop calling stablecoins safe!! And are a some sort of freedom money

Pulled this from the HRF newsletter. Stablecoins have a use case but they are far from safe!! Just like dollars in a bank account stablecoins can be turned off at will
