Wait a minute.  Aren’t those the same “mujahidin” fighting against a Syrian government that America hates?  And aren’t “al-Qaeda-Affiliated [Groups]” what Soleimani was fighting to suppress in Iraq?  And...?

The Americans doth protest too much, methinks.


That’s a feature, not a bug.

---

Just for instance, look up what happened to Ngô Đình Diệm for an exemplary illustration of America’s long and sordid history of creating problems, and then pretending to fight them.  The CIA set Vietnam up for a total Communist takeover with Diệm’s unfortunate demise—and then, of course, the valiant American world-police had to make war on Communism in Vietnam!  A war that was deliberately set up, and deliberately set up to be unwinnable.

Just for instance.

“WAR IS PEACE”, indeed.

Learn a lesson from Diệm—or from Saddam Hussein and from the Kurds in Iraq who rebelled against Saddam in ’91—or any other of numerous examples of people who met their demises through American treachery:

Never trust the Americans.

Now it seems more believable.

Why should insapient talking monkeys be permitted to foul up another planet?

Robots, faster!  Please!  This “humanity”, it wants to metastasize.

inb4, etc., etc.:  The difference between right-wing conservationism and left-wing environmentalism is that conservationists are sincerely worried about their grandchildren—I mean, as something deeper than a sound bite.  “Posterity” is a word not in the vocabulary of those who seek “sustainability” by embracing a culture that is inimical to having heirs, whilst using palaver about Mother Earth as yet another vector to agitate for full-blown International Communism.

(Not talking about Toxic here, either way.  Just clarifying as to myself.  For others, if the shoe fits, wear it.)

Yes, Earth is fantastically, unbelievably overloaded past its carrying capacity, and has so been for a long time now.  No, that cannot go on forever.  And the problem is not exactly helped by taxing productive people so that they cannot afford to have children even at replacement level or modest growth, and using their money to buy food and medical care for people who breed uncontrollably—both in their own countries, and around the world.  That is just one example of the type of grim, undesirable, and quite unavoidable reality that you will not hear Greta Thunberg speaking about honestly.

Abolishing the income tax is an environmental cause!  Do it for Mother Earth!  The global population will implode overnight.

Don’t you worry, that 75% will be close to 100% soon. No need to do anything.

/repeated rant on

I watched as a young child as my parents marched in the 60's for civil rights and to end regime change wars. I watched them march in the 70's over gas shortages engineered by nation states and big oil companies. These entities operating with complete disregard towards environmental consequences and without a ounce of moral decency.

They carried this fight into my adulthood in the 80's and 90's where I picked up their cry and joined in protesting and being 'green' as we know it now, before it was even really a thing. Somewhere in the back of my mind this thought that they would live to see the changes we had all dreamed of.

The dream of not passing on this continued criminal neglect and destruction of our Planet.

My parents are gone now and I am left with carrying on the fight as best as I am able. Teaching my children as I was taught as best I can.

That this Earth we call home is it.

There is literally no other place to go...and why would we? As much as I advocate a colony on Mars and for humanity to expand into the final frontier of space we need to take care of  our own backyard first.

Saying that, it doesnt have to be one or the other..it can and should be both...and more.

We are capable of so much...and we have more than enough resources AND production facilities for everyone. Many times over if we take a responsible long term custodial approach to this amazingly beautiful place we live on.

I have been lucky enough to travel some..and I can tell you I have wept with joy and wonder at the shear awesomeness that is Mother Nature. The grand vistas and profusion of life that abound throughout multiple ecosystems.

Our Mother is hurting now...and it is past time for change.  

In my lifetime I have seen the gradual changes that are now increasing more rapidly. Event piling on event in cascade towards a future where life as we know it might not be possible on the surface of our planet anymore.

I am sick and tired of it. It has to change. I am unwilling to keep passing this off to the next generation.

We have to act now..before its too late.

Covid-19 ... Unrestricted bioweapon designed to maximise bioterror and disruption, limited lethality. Likely intentionally released by Chinese Communist Party who have fabricated evidence in global genomic databases to conceal it's laboratory origin ... and other fraudulent behaviour, destroying samples, data, etc.

Mmmm it will happen

Well some good news just a 2. Be safe.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Up a little this morning... currently $10920USD/$14444CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

A step in the right direction. Go Bitcoin go.

Got lucky with Hurricane Delta. It downgraded to category 2 before making landfall and thus caused much less damage than anticipated.

No fatalities nor even any injuries have been reported and all reports are that damage has been minimal... mostly toppled trees and wires in our general area.

It will probably be another couple of days before power and internet are restored and we can find out how we fared. We're keeping our fingers crossed.

What a year!

I've seen it yesterday, it was breath taking and frightening at the same time a true eye opener. This is a must watch for everyone.

Nature must be protected at all costs for the future of humanity because by protecting it we protect ourselves.

Unfortunately we will continue destroying Earth's biodiversity/deforestation/over fishing-farming/polution and add climate change to the mix it is a recipie for complete disaster ore even extinction. Some previous extintion events took millions of years however the next one may happen in just 100 years. (Paashaas claps his hands)

There are some successes here and there but it might be to late for that, the money system does not allow us to fix it, in fact most problems in this world and our lifestyle is caused by it.

If we fix the fiat system than we'll fix a lot of problems, this is why Bitcoin is so important. Bitcoin is the total package in terms of the redistribution of wealth/power and to restore nature, it is (imo) one of the -if not- the most important invention of oure life-time.

Square have written a "whitepaper" on how they purchased their BTC

$10900 pushing for 11k any minute...

Jack Dorsey has always been a flag-bearer of bitcoin. So it would still be early to consider that buying bitcoin as reserve is becoming a corporate trend. Morever, he said that purchasing bitcoin was in-line with the company's purpose. Are we going to see Square - Crypto Wallet soon?

I hate to correct Lopp, who certainly knows more Bitcoin than I do.  But being a pedant, I must note that due to the way that keys are identified by Hash160, there are 2⁹⁶ (79,228,162,514,264,337,593,543,950,336) different private keys that are authorized to spend any funds sent to a P2PKH/P2WPKH address.  Guessing any one of them would suffice to spend the money.

It does not make a difference in practice, because you still have only a 2¹⁶⁰ chance of guessing any key that can spend for a specific address.  2¹⁶⁰ is still an astronomically huge number!  Albeit somewhat less astronomically huge than 2²⁵⁶ (the 256 represented in the “Bits” column).

2²⁵⁶ is just such a mind-blowingly incomprehensible-to-humans big number that dividing it by 2⁹⁶ results in... a smaller mind-blowingly big number.

Therefore, yes, your money is safe.

Long time no post, market has been boring. Finally it's looking interesting again 

• My gut tells me a breakout to the upside is the most likely, due to long-term (Daily/Weekly) bullish factors, as well as fear being relatively low, hash rate remaining high.
• My logic tells me to stay patient, wait for a confirmed breakout (above $10.95K or below $10.2K), as the continuation pattern suggests continued downside.
• Statistics tell me that volatility is at an all time low, so the breakout will be significant. Either to buy a breakout or set bids for a dip.

Here's an "educational" style to chart to look at the measured move of the symmetrical triangle. The targets are either $9K or $12K.



Either way, the breakout this week will likely define the price structure (bullish or bearish) for the coming month and quarter (October-December).
I'm always hoping for a break-down personally, to hedge short and then average into a nice dip. Going up already is also fine by me
