Crypto Has Bought The 2024 Election!

I think it's bullish, IDGAF 🤣

  • I usually don't interact with them, I just check out the sub from time to time. Some are actually pretty reasonable and have similar beliefs to Bitcoin maxis, calling out a lot of crypto scams, they just happen to also hate bitcoin on top of that 😂. I wouldn't go as far as calling it a troll sub.

    Incredibly bullish top comment on /r/Buttcoin thread... But they still think it's a scam

    I just found it really funny that the Bitcoin haters at /r/Buttcoin are talking up how banks are avoiding Bitcoin but the top comment confirming this admits there is massive client side demand from institutions and family offices...

    Would be nice to get everyone into the same Bitcoin community

    I stopped coming back to Lemmy 6 months ago after seeing there was not enough traction. Is there any good community for Bitcoin or just Crypto that is active with daily users?

    The mod for this community (lemmy.ml) seems to have disappeared long ago (no posts, no comments, and I reached out to them many months ago and they have never got back to me)

    The main mod for lemmy.world/c/bitcoin is just a squatter, who specifically mentioned to me that they are there to hand it over to the Reddit Bitcoin mods if they ever appear.

    discuss.tchncs.de/c/bitcoin seems to have the most active mod, although I haven't checked the other bitcoin communities recently. I think it would be good to move activity over there, unless people think there is a better sub.

    Summary of the latest IMF paper on Bitcoin

    A surprisingly neutral take from IMF researchers on Bitcoin in a recent paper. A 43-page paper, A Primer on Bitcoin Cross-Border Flows: Measurement and Drivers

    Twitter user @Matt_Hougan gives the following summary:

    Takeaway #1: Countries that have limited access to the broader global economy are big users of bitcoin on a relative basis.

    The paper notes: “The magnitudes of the estimated Bitcoin cross-border flows are sizeable with respect to several countries’ GDP, especially in those which experience relatively small capital flows.”

    This finding is repeated throughout the paper. It makes sense: People in countries facing either capital controls or limited access to the global economy are using bitcoin as a release valve.

    People have called bitcoin a tool for economic freedom. The data in

    Interesting story about gold smugglers - should have bought bitcoin

    Smugglers melted and spray painted $10 million in gold to look like machine parts - but they got caught.

  • You are reading as though it is undisputed facts. One reason it is undisputed is because the victim is dead. For one it would be nice to see how likely it was he actually broke glass or reached inside. Was it clear video from a camera at the door? Or some grainy footage from a neighbor across the street? It doesn't say.

  • Much like his company, it's a copy off of Elon Musk

    "If you buy a car that does not have the hardware for full self-driving, it is like buying a horse,”

    Edit: This is supposed to be an insult to the Rivian CEO, making the same dumb jokes. Not a state of support to Elon, the whole context around that quote is wrong.

    Where does electrum store the private key when unencrypted?

    Just wondering if there is a risk of it being recoverable after the transaction has been completed. I figured it would be stored in RAM and thus unrecoverable after powering down, but I can't seem to find anything on that.
