Looked up a friend I hadn't heard from in a few years, and learning that she and her husband were arrested in a multi-billion dollar #bitcoin scam two years ago.

Wir hoffen, Mario, dass du nun beginnst den Sinn Bitcoins, eines weltweit inklusiven Geldsystems, zu verstehen. So hatte auch @wikileaks überlebt. #Bitcoin ist für alle da!
People are confused by this story to this day. They ask, “Bitcoin is dumb, you’re supposed to hodl, that guy is dumb, he could’ve been rich but instead bought pizza. What a moron!”
They don’t understand that without this transaction, #Bitcoin would be worth nothing today.
"with no intrinsic value, huge price volatility and no discernible social good, consumer trading of cryptocurrencies like bitcoin more closely resembles gambling than a financial service, and should be regulated as such."
Incredible supply chain attack. Someone faked a #Trezor hardware wallet that looks and behaves like the genuine article and shipped to purchasers, complete with packaging and holographic seals.
This year the Swag stand will again be accepting payments in cash, but also credit cards* & #bitcoin ⚡️using the @walletofsatoshi PoS. Spend some #sats this year on #THOTCON swag**!
No stolen credit cards, please.
** Good deals for good people.

Regarding the prediction in the article that binance will be byenance to save tether, im not super sure, but its an interesting take.
#bitcoin going to 1 million dollars (USDT denominated) seems likely though, and will be incredible fucking funny. (for outsiders: this would be really bad, btw)
I took an action to tell Google to stop collecting location data and aiding abortion prosecutors.
Despite Google’s past commitment to delete location history for those who visit abortion clinics, Accountable Tech’s latest research shows that Google is still collecting and retaining both location history and location search queries for abortion clinics.
