Miami Mayor ‘Definitely Open’ to Allocate 1% of City’s Treasury Reserves into Bitcoin

Nice they are following Norway's move.

But they didn't actively buy btc, did they? If I recall correctly, The Norway Oil Fund owns some shares of MicroStrategy, which indirectly makes them exposed to btc.

My daily casual BTC reading found four interesting & positive stories about Bitcoin.  Lookin' good, friends:

NFL player wants half his pay in BTC:  https://www.coindesk.com/panthers-russell-okung-becomes-first-nfl-player-to-be-paid-in-bitcoin

Taproot upgrade moving right along:  https://www.coindesk.com/all-major-mining-pools-support-taproot-bitcoin-upgrade

VEGAS car dealer rakin' it in...:  https://cointelegraph.com/news/las-vegas-luxury-auto-dealership-rakes-in-bitcoin-payments

Dribbling out my BTC may not be a bad idea (TL;DR, price goes up):  https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-liquidity-crisis-btc-is-becoming-harder-to-buy-on-exchanges-data-shows


Many of you already know I am always looking for the Exit sign.  Once I know I can get out, it makes me want to stay in.  Gold, Bearing and BTC Guy likes to do things in a way I can understand and feel confident about.  I have no interest in lambos or coke (as I suspect that some poseurs may claim they are, hah..), nor do I need to get rich as I have (just!) enough.  Still, in these toxic times, having a little more wealth cannot hurt.

And you W.O. members have educated me a lot, NONE of my friends nor family are into BTC at all.  You all have made a difference, BTC has done me well, and YOU were there to guide me.

Thanks for this!

I can't get enough of it. I just can't help but stand in awe of this amazing achievement. Just imagine what they'll be able to do in 10, 20 years.



you just know they have a couple robots there that have these terminator Heads/eyes - just to freak out the visitors when appropriate.   Must be fun to work there.   Too bad they sold to another country.  I wish they would remain in the US.

Las Vegas luxury auto dealership rakes in Bitcoin payments
A luxury auto dealership in Nevada has reported a steady increase in Bitcoin (BTC) payments, a testament to the bull market currently underway as more investors convert their holdings into high-end sports cars.

Vegas Auto Gallery, whose inventory includes makes and models from Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari and Lamborghini, recently sold two high-end sports cars to customers who paid more than $6 million in BTC. As the Wall Street Journal reports, owner Nick Dossa says that roughly 3% to 5% of the dealership’s revenue comes from Bitcoin transactions.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
I have heard you admit, on several occasions, that you did not buy enough..

Any man who claims he bought enough is a liar

You calling me a liar?

Do you have enough, or more than enough? If you have more than enough, what will you do with the "excess" above whatever was enough? Charitable donations make sense too since you can probably write it off or tax deductible or something.

Currently it seems to be somewhat more than enough.. but hey, bitcoin is volatile, so sometimes the feelings of more than enough can vanish or at least be lessened significantly in a fairly quick timeframe and surely at some point charitable donations might be within reasonable contemplations - especially if I start to believe that I might die soon.  Otherwise, there might be ways to increase my standard of living, too... so I don't really feel any kind of urgencies towards giving any away.. there are some undeserving family members, too.. so there is that angle that might be considered, perhaps, prior to charity, perhaps.. and I am not really sure about why I need to feel any propelling to save taxes, necessarily... even though surely, saving taxes does motivate a decent number of people...

Furthermore, it is nice to have a decent amount of cushion too.. so that I do not have to worry about selling my BTC, even if the price were to go below the 208-week moving average (which is currently at about $7,700 $7,600).. so yeah, if the 208-week moving average continues to go up, then there could be even more excess cushion that might justify that some of the excess could be shaved off.

Doomed to see the future and unable to prevent it
I would consider moving to Miami because of this.

Miami's certainly not on my top list of places to live in the US but if it is a Bitcoin friendly city I would live there.

I think Wyoming would be higher on my list though. And they are doing some great things there for Bitcoin.

Not to mention the fact Miami is going to end up under water and getting regularly smashed with hurricanes while Wyoming not so much. But then again the coke is easier to get in Miami! Cheesy

People don’t seem to be very friendly/social here though..

They are not, they consider outsiders to all be marks, Reno on the other hand is fucking awesome.

Good morning gentlemen


Bitcoin advances to a new ATH overnight at $28,599.99 in increasing volume. Strong buying pressure remains on increasingly thinner books across most exchanges as we cross the middle of the last week of 2020.

My friend, in Wyoming you have senator Cynthia Lummis,she is a bitcoin fan Wink


There are definitely good things to be said about both Miami and Wyoming, I have spent time in both places.  Both are (relatively speaking) freedom-loving places.  Neither is locked-down hard.

Cold in Wyoming much of the year.  Hot in Miami.  So different, yet I feel the same sense of wanting to be free in both places.

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)
Her voice deepened, her eyes became doe like and she said "wherever you want to..."

She was probably working too. Tongue Phishing to see if you are a potential client.

Well, might as well pick up a quick hundred or whatever. To me though it just made me feel kind of sad. Obviously I still remember it, but that's Vegas in a nutshell.

But then, I am not allowed to live in Vegas. The cabbie told me so.
