Did you saw also this one? Again, I just added the BTC logo. I should do this with more gifs/videos.
yes 😂😂😂 YOU SHOULD!
nah, is just a nice meme, I added a bit of skills editing the video and convert it into a gif. @BitcoinIsTheFuture found the original gif so I just added the BTC logo.
It’s awesome! Hope to see it more!
@bitcointerest, 4 shots please, the DOJ pays !

As Bitcoins price stalls, Class of ‘23 watch with concern, Volatility….
Now we buy, then we sell in 2026, then we buy in 2032, then we sell in 2035 and so forth.
Or just hodl because that's enough

Very special.
I like looking at my total hodlings and panicking for some seconds because what if I lost the ability to transact from my cold wallet for some reason I don't know about and should've thought of. But then i remember that I have the seed words, and that's enough.

Do you remember trying to get a network going though? Messing about with BNC cables and obscure settings... Then finally getting Quake multiplayer up and running. I've never felt so successful.

This is a saloon, indeed.
some prediction market ideas:
prediction markets about the death of people (assassination markets)any more?
I am not interested into gambling with my sats. Better add that feature with @remindme
it's not gambling if you know what you're doing :)
also, you don't have to participate to gain value from prediction markets. prediction markets essentially expose insider information, since anyone with insider information can get rewarded for exposing it:
-- from the article @nemo linked here
but i wasn't talking about adding prediction markets to SN any time soon, anyway.
<insert meme are the same picture>

I was busy doing this one #323165
Assassination markets would kickstart the most serious and forceful opposition to bitcoin, and all of crypto, that have ever happened to date. And also, would be a great evil in the world. So please, not that one.
From a profit perspective, seems like sports betting could really be a killer app. Although would that also introduce forceful and well-funded opposition on all fronts? I'm not sure.
Perhaps it could be a more general removed from office prediction, without specifying the particular method.
I am curious about how strong the legal opposition will be to sports betting. It obviously undermines an enormous industry.
yeah, i agree. just wanted to mention them to make people aware of the downsides of prediction markets. it's not all shiny
you also need to be aware how easy a prediction market is to game. if it's easy to game, you essentially buy influence.
oh yeah, forgot the most discussed use case on SN, lol
also not sure. people already talk about corruption in sport games. would prediction markets make it a lot worse? potentially, since the rewards for corruption can be a lot higher. i guess it depends on how much corruption currently costs.
These are good. I was thinking various commodity or asset prices, as well.
Interest rates would be a good and potentially lucrative one.
ohhh, i like! mempool prediction markets
Someone keeps sending me 100 sats! Show your face madman! What wallet are you testing?
Mee too
Okay maybe it's more of the p2p ad stuff
but without the ad? lol
Yeah no ad

Start of the week at my fiat job. Should be a slow one. Looking forward to listening to a Bitcoin podcast yon my lunch run and prepping for Thanksgiving. Told all the guys to buy some Bitcoin last year, no one listened, let’s see what they say now.
Watching some Bloomberg in the background and I would have expected them to be fuming about Milei being elected in Argentina. Instead they're slow-playing it and comparing him to Liz Truss in the UK... No mention of his wanting to dismantle the socialist government, etc.

Just remember to be cautious when meeting strangers claiming to be bitcoiners. Stay safe.
Thank you for the reminder, the scam artist out there are increasing and only getting smarter, so stay wise, see through their lies and if you do you will walk away with the prize.
Wise advice.
They don't call me Gandalf for nothing. Lol.

Why did the Bitcoin trader get kicked out of the Saloon ?Why did the Bitcoin trader get kicked out of the Saloon ?
Because he kept trying to short the bartender.

Because he hasn't paid his tab ever since he started hodling his sats.

Well, lie down smokin', honey; have yourself a ball, Cause your mother's down in Memphis, won't be back 'till the fall.
Today is my birthday. I'm 49.
Happy birthday! Glad to find fellow Gen X here rather than the Gen Z who flood Reddit haha
Happy Birthday! Great age! I turned 44 yesterday!
I’m just one year younger than you! Happy belated birthday
Happy birthday may God bless you many more years to come. Hope you have a wonderful day and and even better year.
Thank you!
happy birthday :)
Happy birthday cowboy.
Lots of birthdays this month in the saloon. Someone should bake a giant 40+ birthday cake for the cowboys. I would but the only thing I can make is an egg.
Here’s 490 sats to enjoy your day.
Just don’t spend it in the saloon with us imbeciles. Have a great one!
Thanks!
Happy birthday!
congrats
Thanks

Started a 21-day challenge in which I aimed to learn something new about Bitcoin or interact with its ecosystem every day. I would also record my progress on Stacker News.
Day 21 - Was skeptical about the whole thing but inputted my Stacker News LN address on https://satogram.xyz anyway. Woah, woke up this morning to see several sats paid to my account - because I allowed myself to receive advertisements. Okay, the idea of having passive income in the form of petty sats is quite interesting!
I haven't added my address anywhere, yet I'm picking up these random sats with ads too. I suspect it's through nostr.
That makes so much sense. I inputted my Zebedee wallet address on Nostr and have been wondering why I’m getting all these weird sats haha
Okay. Sounds fun and profitable ;) Adding mine now. Have you experienced any downside since adding your wallet address?
Well if you are a frequent SN user, it does clog up your feed haha. But I’m still thrilled at the thought of free sats coming in
Lots of notifications. That's the downside so far.

VC usually means you're investing other people's money in addition to your own.
Angel investor is you're investing your own. SN has an angel who put in "just" 5k.
is there a minimum?
No there's technically no minimum.

Also, seems that founders tend to prefer dealing with a small number of people with deeper pockets, for future raises. Plus they seek “expertise” or connections in addition to just the big-bucks. Otherwise they would opt for crowdfunding.
Do wish we’d see more bootstrapped firms in the world.
Some of my favourite years were spent in a company with 5 employees competing with unprofitable behemoths with 100-1000x more staff.
Something about that ‘underdog’ mentality that really focuses the mind and cuts out all the b/s and inefficiency. Particularly in software.
The work is often more varied & rewarding too.
