Best Bitcoin commercial I’ve recently seen

@BitcoinLixin They could always sell Trezors in physical stores, just like Ledger does at Best Buy. I've never seen Best Buy's customer list leaked. You can always just pay cash there too.

@Ledger_Support Was the previous reply from Romain Marchaudon @0xjoeh his actual account? Just trying to figure out where the official info from Ledger should come from. Always need to be aware of people claiming to be someone else.

@satoricoin @Bitcoinconfasia Is that actual gold? If so, you need to sell them online.

@HanSoloCRO How are you being given the 12% though? If it’s CRO token, you may just me locking up capital with not only no reward after 4 years, but you can’t pull your money out to sell if CRO tanks. I’m a CRO holder, but that’s way too much risk for me.

@Pampadalampa @cryptocom This is why I stopped using their debit card. The CRO rewards are awful. They “reward” you in a valueless token. This company needs to take a HARD look at the tokenomics of CRO. Their spot prices to buy crypto are always higher than other chains too.

@scottmelker (Bangs head into wall)… But does this accrue value to the token/network? If not, who cares? Crypto.com is a private company. We realize no upside from this announcement.

@Pampadalampa @CronosApp How does this accrue value to the blockchain or the token? If it doesn't, we don't care. Crypto.com is a private company, so we don't benefit from any of these developments. Incorporate the token & accrue value to it and you'll have our attention.

@BalletCrypto What about the blue Ballet Pro wallets? Because we picked our own seed phrases without a random generator, are those also safe?

Leo Lukenas III made a Wall Street salary. It killed him at 35. Leo wasn't soft. He was a former Green Beret U.S. Army Special Forces. He'd survived some of the hardest military training on Earth. In 2023, he left the military and took a job as an investment banker at Bank of America in New York. Chasing the money. Building a better life for his family. He was working **over 100 hours a week.** Think about that. There are only 168 hours in a week. He was working more than 100 of them. That's roughly 8:30 a.m. to past midnight, six or seven days a week. In mid-March 2024, he told a recruiter he wanted out. He was desperate to leave because the hours were destroying him. He never got the chance. On May 2, 2024, Leo died of an **acute coronary artery thrombus** a blood clot in the arteries of his heart. A 35-year-old Green Beret. Dead. From a desk job. He left behind a wife and children. He survived combat training that breaks most people. What broke him was a banking job and the belief that grinding 100-hour weeks was just a "rite of passage." The industry called it a tragedy. Then went right back to business. The money looked incredible on paper. It cost him everything he actually had.

- You: "I missed one mortgage payment." - Bank: "Late fee. Credit score destroyed." - You: "What happens if YOU run out of money?" - Bank: "The government saves us." - You: "With what money?" - Bank: "Yours." - You: "So I bail you out, but you fine me?" - Bank: "You're not an economist."

- You: "The house costs 5 million." - Bank: "With interest, you'll pay 9 million." - You: "So the bank earns more than the builder?" - Bank: "Correct." - You: "For doing what?" - Bank: "Creating the money." - You: "Creating it from what?" - Bank: "Your signature."

Absolutely crazy.

@cryptomanran Yes, this is great... assuming businesses don't vertically integrate on their own chains thereby preventing outsiders from owning a piece of it. Otherwise we built all this FOR the banks. They're the next "boss" in this video game we need to prove our networks are better than.

@ChazzonKe @majorart_eth @IonicDigital We may be looking at this the wrong way. I don’t think they made these decisions because they didn’t understand mining. I think their intent from day 1 was to strip the Co. Standard VC move with a distressed asset, especially when shareholders can’t fight back.

Tom Lee: "If you exclude the 10 best days for each year in Bitcoin, you'd actually be down 27% per year." All the gains basically come down to 10 days. Miss them and you're wrecked. The same window exists in the S&P too - miss 10 days and your 9% annual return flips to -10%. FT @Scaramucci @FundStrat @AllThingsMkts @SkyBridge.

Bitcoin traded down 50%+ even as the dollar debased wildly. What happened? Novogratz: "It just lost its sponsorship and narrative." AI sucked all the energy out of the room. "Anything that's not memory or part of this AI food chain - no one cares about." FT @Scaramucci

@elveton101 @IonicDigital @owiener Is there any legit chance that with this vote we can continue to take power back with this company? Or is this still effectively a VC resource grab for leadership and a tax-loss harvest for us? Has Ionic shown any progress to profitability? They don’t communicate.

@Aaronbennett @gurgavin @grok @IonicDigital Did Ionic just announce it's annual shareholder meeting? Anyone else just get this email? Is this legit?

@Aaronbennett @gurgavin @grok @IonicDigital But is there any desire to actually let shareholders enjoy the benefits of these deals? The VC team that took over has shown no interest in doing anything other than syphoning value. Why should insiders make the shares public when they control the cash cow from within? Ugh…
