Whether bitcoin ossifies or not, and as good as bitcoin is, I think it's likely that another Satoshi comes along in the future and creates 100x better money.
Also great self-custodial MoE UX never materializing. And bitcoin not fending off the usual threats people talk about.
The financial part of crossposting is about as straightforward as I imagined, but lots of other places assume a single territory per item and are trickier to untangle.
Here's where I fight the desire to refactor everything and make lemonade with these lemons.
If the next few hours and tomorrow's are productive, I might be able to honor my estimate of shipping before EoY ... worst case I won't need more than another day.
Airspeed can be converted to altitude, or altitude converted to airspeed with varying levels of efficiency - you can convert one to another depending on terrain, weather, endurance, range, conditions of flight, configuration etc...
I'd never thought about planes this way, as great transformers of one form of energy into another, storing potential energy in altitude. Very cool post!
Then read. And read some more, and more, and more...
I stayed up tired as I was, sat on the hotel room bed for NINE HOURS. NINE HOURS STRAIGHT.
Do you remember what you read? I'm curious about where the internet took you then.
This isn't very helpful, but could you return it for a wide Evo?
And this is especially not helpful, but when I was considering an instant print camera, I determined that what I really wanted was one of the printers. That way I could take photos with my phone, like usual, but print off the ones I wanted to look at regularly.
It was a long time ago, but along the lines of changing one's mood/mind/habits, gently going from one warm bath and into another.
I don't recall it being very targeted and might've been default advice that they give.
I had a therapist recommend doing something like this for my fiction diet. That relates somehow, but I'm struggling to describe it.
We should all require more evidence for convenient opinions than inconvenient ones. I try to live this way, and probably fail more than I know, but when I succeed it must make me seem like an uncertain bitch.
I think a lot of bitcoiners make this mistake with stablecoins. They're succeeding now, but certainly they must fail because they are more of the same. They could fail, and I hope they do, but there's very little sensitivity to KYC/AML among the bitcoiners predicting stablecoins will fail, let alone everyone else. So long as stablecoins don't make all of the mistakes that banks made, it's possible that bitcoin never competes as a white market MoE.
Americans make a related mistake wrt to China becoming the dominant world power. Most trends show they'll overtake us, but certainly they must fail because they aren't free like we are.
Yep, something is broken on their end. The wallet I setup there is incapable of sending money out - no matter the destination or method.
Do you recall the message you received? Do your wallet logs reveal anything?
Edit: I spun up a coinos account and tried sending money to it and I'm unable to route to them.
I suspect their node is having issues which may resolve if given enough time.
It has a 73% premine with weird proof-of-take consensus. Miners pay bitcoin to stakers (existing STX holders) and if the miner wins a block, they get STX in return.
Its primary relationship to bitcoin is that they take your bitcoin in exchange for their shitcoin. The basis for calling it an L2 is that it uses bitcoin, but it uses bitcoin in ways that lack any heritability of bitcoin's qualities. It's an affinity scam.
Complacency.
Also, the same it that made it more likely for people aware of bitcoin in 2008 to not buy bitcoin. 100x better things are either not believed to be 100x better initially or aren't initially 100x better.
... In either case, bitcoin wouldn't immediately go to zero, so perhaps it's not proper to call that a threat. The best I can imagine is that bitcoin will behave like gold behaves today - valued, but dated and impractical.
