Good advice, thanks!

About MM, I think the guy gave us either 15 of 25 pieces, can't remember exactly. Was for free (he lived in the dorm too). They didn't really look like big mushrooms or anything. They were small (pea-sized or smaller), dark and dry, with rough shape. So we took either 7 or 12 each. Swallowed with water. Neither of us felt anything. I think the guy said that from 25+ (or was it 50+) you get visuals.

Thanks.
Cool story, btw. I also smoked the first J with a girl, but she wasn't pretty LOL
Didn't feel anything for the first six times, but the seventh time i got hit really nice, it was almost too much and i had to walk home through dark parks and alleys, got scared a little.

Here's my advice on MM: Especially the first few times, don't do it alone. You should be able to get a "mushroom box" somewhere and grow your own. Moisture, warm, constant environment temperature and no direct light will get things growing. If they're potent, you will likely have phantastic and wild organic trip, unlike the clear, transparent quality of LSD. You can snap out of a bad trip on LSD easily, while it's not as easy on shrooms and you might vomit your guts out. Which is some kind of defragmentation as well, if you put it that way  
No joke: Look for experienced, trustful company for the first time. Maybe there are "phantasy group trip" offers in other countries, might well be worth a visit.

Alternative: Try microdosing and slowly step up. You'd need a couple of days in between to achieve the same ratio of potency each time, because your metabolism will adapt to a degree in the range of less than a week. MM do a lot for your life experience through microdosing, everything becomes more vivid and alive or soulful, without overflowing your brain with science fiction like mythical sensations.  

EDIT: Might be worth to mention that i had my last full dosed shroom experience around 20 years ago. It almost destroyed an old friendship. Turned out later that my friend was full of shit, anyway. I basically saw and felt his true nature but didn't believe the vibes. I was taught better in the end.

Shit guys, if there's no 7 in front anytime soon, I'll die of boredom.

That video was very eerie with that music.

As if you are watching the Titanic sink. People so sure of themselves in an unsinkable giant vessel. In the end nothing can stop doom for most passengers.

It's the same with the ridiculous HS2 train line project in the UK.
£100 billion, as if it is nothing. They are estimating it may cost double that. Work that out per citizen, crazy.
It can never pay for itself, impossible. It will not help most people in the UK. The autonomous car is around the corner. Who in their right mind would get on a train when you can phone a robot Uber or have a robot Uber drive you anywhere?

You can literally build 10,000 (!!) £10 million leisure centres in the UK for £100 billion. Put countless people to work all over the country.
Now wouldn't that be a good way to combat poor health also?

Nah- let's build a single train line.

$2 trillion!! Sick in the head.

Looks like Bill Gates has to move aside. I'm coming through 

I agree with this very much. I also considered the back and forth in the past but I have pointed out several times recently it makes no sense as in the long run no alt keeps up with BTC unless you have impeccable timing. It seems to me the alt back and forth thing is heavily manipulated by individuals who have the power to do so.
Not going to ride that wave.

HODL in BTC only.

My calcs start at 100k in 2021 and go up 1.5x to 1.9x every year, I made two columns.
In the year 2038, I end up with 41m and 140m respectively.

I'm still alive then, the numbers look a bit too high, but ... even if it's not that high, it should be at least $20 million by then.

Quite close to my maths, which are quite bad generally but I seem to get most Bitcoin rally predictions right somehow, lol.

But damn, $10M per coin would mean 2.3x today's existing fiat money in the entire world. If BTC gets to $10M, I guess fiat will be worth close to how much the Hungarian Pengo was back in 1946 vs the USD. Virtually worthless.

But considering today's economical situation in the world, are we really that far from this kind of situation? Like honestly, wtf, the US gov has printed around $27,000,000,000 a DAY in 2020... 22% of the circulating USD supply has been printed within one year.. just imagine all this money going straight into Bitcoin: https://youtube.com/watch?v=4ZQXH28qbOg

Can you imagine that $2B truck is just 32k BTC? A friggin' truckload of $100 bills We're screwed, man.

Wow, I'm intrigued, OOM. You are a weed connoisseur.

Okay, let me say this: the thing I said earlier about not having smoked in my entire life was not 100% true. I've smoked once. And it was cannabis! Yes! When in college, and next to a gorgeous girl, in her dorm room. Great times. Nirvana's Nevermind playing on a cassette tape, and we were smoking one joint at a time, passing it between us. Earlier there was another girl that prepared the joints for us. She was an expert. She mixed normal tobacco with the cannabis stuff, and rolled them. I was, still am, a newbie in this sort of thing. If it was me, I would have put all the cannabis in! We had a great time. I remember feeling like I was inside a rocket flying high, accelerating upwards. If only I could turn back time...

And I've also "eaten" magic mushrooms. Yes! Are you supposed to eat them? That's what I think the guy that gave them to us said. Anyway, we made the mistake of splitting one dose between me and her. Didn't feel a thing. Never tried anything ever again. I saw a comment by a WOer here a couple of days ago, about mushrooms defragmenting your brain. That sounds so cool, as my brain needs some serious defragmenting, I can feel it. But I don't know where to get them...

OOM, if there's anything related and you don't mind, I'll be PMing you.

History has proven us so many times that whenever Bitcoin drops, it stomps all shitcoins through the ground. I only see these nonsense alt hypes as an opportunity to multiply my Bitcoins because why the heck not. But then I found an answer: because it's risky AF.

Since I've taken a look at the markets when Bitcoin pumped a bit just a few days ago, I only keep seeing that whenever Bitcoin pumps, everyone gives no more fucks about shitcoins and jumps ASAP into the Bitcoin boat. Looking at the charts makes it seem like multiplying BTC through shitcoin seasons is an easy job, but hell no it isn't, lol. Anyway, this all proves that the only reason people get into shitcoins is that they want profit. Talking about "how good their tech is" is more BS than not, since >99% of the people only say that about a coin because they're not earning as much profit through it as Daddy Bitcoin rewards us. Shitcoins reward you... shit. And sure, I couldn't agree more with @JayJuanGee, timing all those back-and-forths is a pain in the arse and you never know when the fire gets you while the BTC rocket launches off the ground.

So yeah. In the end, even if BNB, ETH or whatever other nonsense coin dumps to the ground, the chances of Bitcoin doing the same are slim. On the other hand tho, Bitcoin dropping 20% in a day could make any coin drop even 50% in the same period of time. Bitcoin's the king, and it always will be. BTC FTW.

but I can"t lie - I still want so much more BTC, damn it!

This is pure poetry.  This matches my calculations exactly 

I don't know what's popular, actually. I don't share my passion with many people. Only the anonymity of the interweb makes me willing to talk about that topic, which i normally avoid, especially in public. You wouldn't recognize that i do weed, even if you know me for longer time. One of my brothers in law does too, we shared some good times in the past, but he still doesn't know that i do. He's nice, but too talkative.

I prefer original strains, but they are genetically contaminated nowadays when you buy them. Through coincidence i met an old lady who is growing strains from the 70s, they're nowhere as strong as modern strains, but i really like them for alternation and when i need to use my faulty brain a lot (creating annual tax report for my wife's business, for example).
I like colorful stuff a lot, like original purple haze, skunks, the juicy more modern bubblegum and blueberry variants, and for the last few years mostly i got more modern, random stuff like white russian, atomic haze, soma, ak-47, white widow, bubba kush. Unfortunately that door is closed now, because the dude that delivered it sold his car, living a few hundred miles away, but the quality was awesome, bioorganically grown, highly potent weed in vacuum bags, only slightly compressed.

Sorry for drifting off. Northern Lights? A classic, also popular. Quite psychedelic, it doesn't just fog your brain and put you to sleep. One of the first strains i smoked back then, in the early 90s, of which i also actually knew the name. Went to amsterdam to get awesome qualities of this strain. I think it was a "cannabis cup" winner (by well known "sensi seeds" company) back then. But as i said, should be hard to get hold of genetically unaltered NL buds/plants/seeds nowadays.

EDIT: I just realized that i don't remember the name of any real modern strain i had. All i mentioned so far were at least on the market for 10 yrs. and more. 
I'd really like to try "california green", but i am not in a position to get hold of it anytime soon.
 

I'm not putting any spins on anything, just stating what would have happened based on the facts. I also did not invest or put in any into ETH back then. I don't do so now, even if I am aware there will be positive price moves. So I'm not putting any more money into any shitcoins. I understand completely that you are a BTC maxi of pure blood with zero altcoin diversification, and that's not an issue with me.


Nah, I got into trouble due to other mistakes I made unrelated to BTC or other shitcoins. I've only put in there what I consider to be disposable for the asymmetrical bet, and ended up joining a few swaps from coins to tokens and such.

As for long term viability, I do not have a strong opinion other than that large institutions are getting into them, and they surely know more than us, unless you perceive yourself to be more knowledgeable than them billionaires and hedge fund peeps.

I am also aware that, for example, Saylor and Saifedeen and pure BTC maxi's, and don't bother at all with anything else, and everything else is a shitcoin. So there's that (or them.)



I already did, but I am never here to shill any other altcoin or fork. I'm keeping those to myself, not because I am greedy or I think I know it, but it's something I got into a few years ago and they are giving me decent returns, which in turn I'm either cashing out constantly to fiat, or to BTC.


No need if you don't want to. Can be none of your concern right? Let the shitcoiners be shitcoiners. Not an attitude I would do personally, but to each his own.


Nah, it's just the way software development goes for those who look at the tech without the supposed value of them. There were plenty of distributed computing projects that used computing power with no monetary compensation, yet people joined and contributed, you know, prime numbers, seti@home, folding proteins, all that stuff.

That a particular coin or token decides to use a blockchain or fork off from bitcoin or fork off from a fork of something, and do something with it, without assigning any value to them (aka, no doing an ICO, not actively trying to get listed on centralized exchanges, letting it grow on it's own ..) well, it's the type of thing where you can just wait and see, and if you have any disposable money to gamble with, as opposed to playing dice or poker, throw it in there.

The tech behind bitcoin which was hashcash used pow to attempt to limit email spam. That did not really work because of the lack of adoption. But the tech is still the tech, and it's what is powering the proof of work behind bitcoin now.



That is entirely up to you. Again, I completely understand you, and a plenty of others would not waste any time looking at allocations. I would not either.

What I do have are some options that have been there since a few years ago.

If you can think of what I am doing or did as analogous to mining shitcoins to get more BTC, then that might make sense to you. Some miners here mine altcoins, to end up acquiring more BTC.

I have what I have and it's currently paying my rent (or part of it.) with no more being put into it than what I threw into it a few years ago. I think that's decent.

Is it a shitcoin? Most likely, probably, by the definition that it is not bitcoin, then yes.

Otherwise, almost everyone I deal with knows me as a sorta BTC maxi as well. I tell everyone else to just do bitcoin too, no alts. They can research all they want, but I can't endorse them, even if I am making decent coin with them right now.

After being reminded of a Gandhi quote today...


Personally being there pretty much from the beginning, it feels relevant regarding Bitcoin adoption, every step of the way.

"Blockstrains"

What's a good popular strain these days? I read something about Northern Lights... but that seems to be a generic name for plenty of them and all different too. It happens to be a name for a fitness brand too.

I don't disagree with you on any of the substantive points.. and remember that people say all kinds of shit, and it is probably not a bad practice to make some immediate assessments regarding how much validity that you give to the comments of others in order to help to lessen criticisms that you cited them because you agree with them.  Ultimately, your various substantive points, including your further elaboration on what you said earlier do not even contradict my previous posts on the topic.

Yes, the new model for sure.  I've not used an old model in a while, but I'm pretty sure too.

Does Trezor (using webwallet and not Electrum) supports BECH32 (bc1-adresses), especially sending (and getting back correct change, lol)?
I am getting mixed indications by googling.
