I like how your education isn't adequate for the rudiments of spoken language, but it is adequate to write advanced distributed systems that explore frontier topics in sociology and economics.

I'm afraid you will have a very hard time finding a support group, should you ever require one.

Are you drawing lines on a chart in stacker.news? People don't tend to draw lines on charts on stacker.news.

After reading this:

I’ll go ahead [...] and say we’ve just experienced the final low for bitcoin.

and this:

But now that we’ve seen the tail whip, we can know with much more certainty that the low is in, as there is now a surplus of latent energy ready to push prices higher more quickly than off a sideways churn.

I have a question: I assume you are leveraged-to-the-tits long on Bitcoin, right?

Not really but people always need their boogymen. Blackrock is generally viewed negatively but Larry is very clear about what Blackrock does. The company manages money. None of the trillions they have access to is their money. He repeats it over and over. Blackrock is behaving based on the requests of its clients. But that falls on deaf ears because people would rather rip into Fink for ESG stuff while Blackrock also has oil and gas investments. Instead of reaching for the logical conclusion that maybe with trillions under management Blackrock has sizeable clients from both industries I guess its just easier to say "REEE FINK BAD REEE" and put no energy into thinking about things.

So, ETF's are not bad. In the case of Blackrock this is them attempting to meet the needs and demands of their clients. ETF's can be integrated into retirement plans which means you no longer have to hold Bitcoin to feel its effects. Its effects can be felt by your automatically managed 401k account instead. You don't even have to be aware and most people won't because most just open an account with their employer's provider and let it do its thing. This is how Bitcoin integrates into every day lives.

Custody of Bitcoin really has no need to be the focus of everything involved with Bitcoin. Care less about the custody and more about the utility.

Could you use a GCN and RL to select transactions for eviction??

That's a research paper.

I was surprised to see this given what Powell has said about the labor market... Cant wait for the revision right after the election though that says only 5 jobs were created!

Quite a corner case, you'll hit this situation in very rare circumstances, if ever.

Most likely you'll never gain enough traction because you'll be repelling 9 out of 10 users with this policy. That's what I suspect.
