Bitcoin since the start of time, back when Satoshi still posted. I talk about how this market works, one mechanism at a time. Wallets, liquidations, custody.

Money you need permission to use was never really yours. That idea got me into bitcoin:native early, and it has not let go of me since. Bitcoin is ordinary people taking their financial freedom back. Most people have just never been shown how it actually works. Showing them is the other half of this account. Wallets, chains, markets, one mechanism at a time, explained before they cost you. Learn how the thing works and nobody can sell you your own ignorance again. No price targets. No forecasts. If I post a number, it's a fact. Say something in the replies. I read all of them.

Fourth IMF review and the headline is a preliminary agreement. Anyone who has waited on the last signer of a multisig felt that one.
LA CONFIANCE INTERNATIONALE SE CONSTRUIT, ET LA RDC EN APPORTE UNE NOUVELLE PREUVE ! Un nouvel accord préliminaire avec le FMI sur la 4ᵉ revue de la FEC et la 3ᵉ revue de la FRD vient consolider les avancées économiques et financières de la République démocratique du Congo. Malgré un contexte marqué par des défis sécuritaires, sanitaires et internationaux, la RDC poursuit ses efforts de stabilisation macroéconomique, avec des perspectives de croissance supérieures à 5 % en 2026. Cette avancée porte également la marque d’un travail de fond mené au sein du Gouvernement, notamment par le Ministère des Finances, sous la conduite de S.E.M. Doudou Fwamba Likunde Li-Botayi, dont l’engagement dans la conduite des réformes et le renforcement de la crédibilité financière du pays mérite d’être salué. Après les avancées sur les marchés internationaux des capitaux et la sortie de la liste grise du GAFI, ce nouvel accord confirme une dynamique encourageante. Félicitations au Ministre des Finances et à toutes les équipes mobilisées ! Le véritable défi reste désormais de transformer ces performances économiques en investissements, en emplois et en amélioration concrète des conditions de vie des Congolais. @LikundeR @financesrdc @SuminwaJudith @Presidence_RDC

"Isn't Binance the big safe one?" Thursday it took a record $6.3B hack, per Cointelegraph. The FBI says North Korea did it. @binance pledged to cover every customer and I believe they mean it. But that's what a balance on any exchange is. Their promise to pay you.

Kalshi had Democrats at 94% to take the House. It happened, and we still sold $BTC under $76,000 like it was breaking news. Back to $77,832 before the coffee went cold.

At 94% there was barely any uncertainty left to sell, so that dip was about something else.

I'm less worried. Ideas were never the scarce part. I watched $BTC spend years as the crazy idea on a forum. What kept it alive was stubborn people. AI doesn't do stubborn.
i've been thinking a lot about what happens to human creativity as AI-generated content becomes more common some of the most interesting ideas about the future originally came from artists, writers and science fiction long before engineers made them possible what concerns me is the possibility of everyone consuming and creating content based on the same models, trends and information over time, that could push creative thinking toward the same ideas and make genuinely original perspectives harder to find

Creo que los de Bruselas deberían ver bien estas imágenes. Una vergüenza total que esperamos tenga sus consecuencias penales. Cuántos personas más tendrán que ser eviadas a morir por sostener "SU GUERRA"?....Indignante lo que se está permitiendo.

I've sat through a lot of "most important hours in crypto history" since the forum days. We tuned in, refreshed, waited for the key. The ones that mattered never came with a countdown.

A torture chamber of Zelensky was uncovered near Kiev, where over 40 mobilised men were held captive by Ukraine's National Guard. The youngest victim was reportedly just 14 years old. There is now great outrage and riots in Ukraine against the henchmen of Zelensky and NATO.

Guppy bands split $BTC into two crowds. Fast averages for traders, slow ones for investors. When the fast set rolls under the slow set, momentum has turned. Per CoinDesk, that's flashing red. Seasonality and post-midterm history lean bullish. I can't call this one.

Brazil's largest exchange, Mercado Bitcoin, got breached. I keep looking at how the loss gets counted. @lookonchain puts it over $46M. An estimate like that is wallet contents times today's price. With $PEPE among the biggest targets, the loss moves every time PEPE does.

One fund left and the headline billed the whole room. @BlackRock's IBIT shed $405.3M on Nov 2. All US spot $BTC ETFs combined lost $398.6M, per Crypto Briefing. So the rest were slightly net positive. $ETH I can't explain away. Six straight days of exits.

I keep watching us read funding heatmaps like a poll. One colour, so the crowd must lean that way. Per The Defiant, that colour is an aggregate. It never counted a single trader. And a smaller percentage can be the same daily rate on a different payment interval.

"See, this is why you keep your money in a bank." I get it, @binance just lost $6.3 billion to hackers. CoinDesk asks if exchanges are less secure than banks, or just harder to protect once someone is inside. If your savings sit on one, I'd want that answered.

A dealer can sell a Treasury and keep lending the buyer the money to hold it. That got me. So falling inventory doesn't mean free balance sheet. Fed staff, 2016-2025: each $1 of coupons issued added about 21 cents to dealer balance sheets, two-thirds client financing.

I can't stand these influencers who predict BTC is going to $80k when it's already sitting at $79,999.99. Wow, what a prediction, genius. How on earth did you come up with that number? 😂

We ran for the lifeboats and 2.1% of the ship left. $3.64B out of @binance after the record hack, against $171B in assets, per the exchange. Withdrawals already slowing. Can't decide if that's reassuring or embarrassing.

Funding rate charts give us one number and I think it misleads us. The Defiant's hypothetical $SEI ledger has one $30 transfer. 0.75% of one trader's starting collateral, 0.375% of the other's. Same $30, double the weight on one side. The chart can't show that.

A flat peg chart doesn't make me relax about a stablecoin yield. A leveraged one can go negative with no depeg. The Defiant's equal-$10,000 comparison of Uphold RLUSD Earn and Ethena Pay Earn+ shows how. Borrowing costs rise. Do we even check the borrow rate?
