Who says this??? Don’t spread fake news here….

You can ask ChartBuddy. Hey buddy tell him…!!!

WoW!

30+30+3= 63 Years.

My mind poking me: Ask him how old is he. (LOL)

Various premises of the article in regards to failure of the bitcoin implementation in El Salvador and suggestions that Tether is buying a country .. are just nonsense...   premature to suggest failure of the bitcoin implementation (though a wet dream for the scaredy cat status quo bankers), and for sure there are going to be implementation issues.

For some reason, I had not realized that Bukele had been in discussions with Cardano folks in late 2020 and into early 2021... .. Holy fucking shit, that would have been a disaster if he would have gone with pumping up  that scam pyramid scheme Cardano bullshit....... part of the ethereum scam has persisted so long because so many corrupt status quo folks are pumping money into it so they can print their own money and make all kinds of free money.. so makes the crap live longer when it should just die from its own multiple house of card smoke and screen rube goldberg apparatuses.. so in some sense, the failure of the Cardano negotiations in early 2021 show Bukele to at least not susceptible to that kind of pumping some bags of scammers nonsense.

Regarding how bitcoin has been implemented in El Salvador, we are lucky as fuck that there has been so much bitcoin focus within both how Bukele talks about the matter and he seems to have stayed true to his word.. and has not even come up with his own coin, yet (remember Miami coin?) .. and there seem to be quite a few instances in which Bukele has been rejecting various shitcoin propositions and/or other scammers.. remember when child star scammer Brock Pierce tried to get in on the early implementations, and so many true bitcoiners pointed out that Brock was an opportunist scammer.. so Bukele seemed to recognize/appreciate that information, too.. and did not allow Brock to get into his inner circles.. ...   so in quite a few ways, Bukele seems to be very aware of the difference between bitcoin and various shitcoins..

Could you imagine how much of a shitshow we would have had if Bukele did not have that level of bitcoin focus and conviction within his implementations.. and he would have been more of an "all coins are equal" cryptocurrency maximalist.. and foggy-ass ambiguous and muddled thinking like that?  By the way, Tether is not a shitcoin in the same light as various other shitcoins.. even though there are so many tendencies to throw Tether in the mix of supposed corruption.. blah blah blah nonsense..

Maybe Bukele would be more liked by the powers that be (especially the bankers) if he was into foggy thinking about equal opportunity all cryptos are alike and shitcoins.. hahahaha.

I don't live in the USA so my opinion is not relevant to citizens and voters. If I could vote over there I would probably mostly lean republican but the gun stuff I do think should be tackled regardless.
I can see the right to bear arms as a touchy subject and outright banning will never work and I wouldn't quite agree with.

Regardless, many of these mass shooters recently are in the 18-25 age range.
Not sure the initial stuff we've heard about this loser is true but apparently he bought the semi automatics on his 18th birthday.

They should ban buying guns (and also ban voting!) for anyone younger than 25. In concession the dems should agree on required voter ID.


What they've done in Scotland allowing voting for 16 and 17 year olds is also sick in the head if you ask me.
I'd like to see the age of voting increased in the west. Sure, I also thought I knew everything at 18-19 but I clearly didn't.

Toss a coin, If Heads, It will go up. Else It goes down. This is what TA is for most of the people in here. Better find some other place to discuss this as they don't take it serious.

Readying the Bulls for the next run. Somebody be going to the moon.

Is the font changed or what? Why the forum looks weird to me.

I posted this link in some thread a couple of months ago, but I don't think anyone commented on it. It’s interesting to go a little through the history of how Bitcoin became a legal tender in El Salvador with the help of the guys from Tether, and how one altcoin lost that battle at the end of the race.

Should could be some chop today for BTC

There is going to be strong movement this week, either up or down....and this will depend on tommorow.

In the whole balance of things, I consider myself a P. Mccormack fan - even though for sure there is some weirdness about some of his ways - but overall I consider him to be a pretty good interview most of the time, even though he has been criticized for being too dumb sometimes or too wishy-washy.. but he has remained quite a bit of a work-horse in terms of consistently putting out podcast episodes and he has had some pretty amazing guests (and discussions) through the years including some of his drama queen stuff - in which he has admitted to going down some of the drama/attention whore routes on purpose..   I probably have listened to nearly all of his audio podcast episodes since 2017-ish.. or whenever I first heard about him.

Here's another way of listening to his podcast - through Overcast:

https://overcast.fm/+LCsEhdiRU


It could be that Peter is better in the audio only format - even though there is nothing really wrong with how he looks, but surely some of his facial expressions come off as weird from time to time in that particular El Salvador "documentary".. and probably those are the kinds of reactions that regular people have in the real world.. but maybe post production will edit those kinds of expressions out of the more "professional" video presentations.  Perhaps? perhaps?  

In my own listening to podcasts, it is pretty rare that I watch actual videos rather than just listening to the audio presentations.. and probably the vast majority of video presentation exposure that I get comes through this thread or other links that I might come across through this forum... otherwise I tend to find audio format to be a bit more practical for my own ability to listen while I am working, driving, walking or exercising.


By the way, in regards to the Bukele interview, Peter said that he fucked up the first interview, but he was going to go back and ask the tough questions.. blah blah blah.. so it was a bit ironic that his second interview came off as being worse (from my perspective) than the first, in spite of his own self-direction to do better.. hahahahaha
 

I doubt that we are getting very far with our discussions about dictator versus democracy.. but surely there can be trade offs in terms of potentially getting things done - and the extent to which possible enlightened leaders would end up benefiting the folks more or if it is better to ensure that decisions and even execution is spread out a bit more....  

Personally, it seems to me that we could get quite led astray by trying to get caught up too much into various politics - and surely we can have opinions about whether some individuals might be wielding too much power or if they might be instituting  policies in self-serving ways, rather than making sure that they are fairly accounting for various deficiencies in their communities.
 

I don't know how much Michael Moore would be a great comparison, but surely I believe that I do get at least part of your point that sometimes journalists can get involved in their own  contradictions when they are pointing out contradictions that exist in society in regards to various policies and practices and the impacts of various policies and practices, and surely each of us have to attempt to figure out how much we might buy into any kind of framework that might be presented to us through journalists, and I doubt that it is bad when journalists might attempt to take a moral stance - and surely the extent to which they might present their view as objectively correct or not is going to vary too in terms of the medium in which they present their story and maybe the extent to which they might have others helping them to figure out the extent to filter or not.

The crew doing the Bitcoin Bonds has been living it up in El Salvador, to great attention from the local press — people from iFinex, Samson Mow, Simon Dixon from BnkToTheFuture, and RT broadcaster and Bitcoin maximalist Max Keiser and his wife Stacy Herbert. [Elsalvador.com, in Spanish]

Max Keiser had suggested Bitcoin bonds to the government way back in June 2021. [El Faro, in Spanish]

Mow, Keiser and Herbert took a military helicopter, piloted by an El Salvador Air Force captain, to La Unión, the alleged future site of Bitcoin City. It doesn’t get much more libertarian than that. The local press coverage was not positive concerning the private partying on public funds. [Elsalvador.com, in Spanish]

Bukele brought companies in to work on the Bitcoin project based on whether they were politically reliable — without paying too much attention to competence.

The companies were mostly friends of Bukele’s long-standing “shadow cabinet,” who are associated with the Venezuelan opposition to Nicolás Maduro. Shadow cabinet leader Sara Hanna has advised Bukele since he was the mayor of Nuevo Cuscatlán, around 2012 to 2015. [El Faro, in Spanish; El Faro, in Spanish]

Hanna and cryptocurrency promoter Lorenzo Rey designed the Chivo network. Rey promoted the Dash altcoin for payments and remittances in Venezuela — though a lot of the Venezuelan merchants listed as accepting Dash couldn’t be verified as … existing at all. [George Donnelly]

A team from Cardano came to El Salvador in early 2020 to promote their minor altcoin ADA as a possible legal tender crypto, and negotiated up to mid-2021. Apparently, negotiations failed just a few weeks before Bukele’s big announcement about Bitcoin in June 2021 — and the whole project was scrapped.

You default because we won't accept your money approach. Not sure if it's possible to make a bigger mockery of the "global reserve currency".

Yet another school shooting in USA. WTF America. Get your shit together.

If you changed your gun laws this shit would stop.


Or better yet you can change "right to bear arms" to "right to arm bears" and that would make the world a much more interesting place
