Re: End of bitcoin?

The best crypto right now are the tickets I've won at Chuck E Cheese.  The number of tickets to buy prizes doesn't change but the amount of money to play the games to win the tickets always goes up.  I have the last laugh on this one.

Re: End of bitcoin?

Re: End of bitcoin?

End of Bitcoin, Beginning of DOGECOIN.  Nothing like investing 180k on a joke.  Highlights a bitcoin manipulation path. Drive some sketchy altcoin to the moon, swap for bitcoin, and cash out to fiat.  Who needs fiat when there's over 7,800 different cryptos.  I can't wait to get my wallet and colle...

EV Battery/Motor Materials

Does anyone have thoughts on how the markets will adapt to the materials needed to manufacture EV batteries and motors?  Specifically, hedging to keep costs under control.  LME already has nickel, CME announced a Cobalt contract spec.  Gold and silver have hedge solutions.  I don't think there is an...

Re: The vaccines

I didn't know my avatar would be this relevant when I made it.  I'm holding out for the J&J vaccine which uses andenovector vs mRNA tech.  If we don't get a choice I will take whatever is available as soon as it's available for my group.   Will you do the injecting yourself?  Oh good idea, I wi...

Re: Trump -- the last 100 days

As far a Trump as a person, he could be a clinical narcissist egomaniac for all I know.  But who cares?  It's kind of like the ol' Gordon Gekko quote, "greed is good".  At least he made the trains run on time? Delusional. Feels like a banana republic. To be more clear, greed is inherently...

Really taking the high road on this thread. So, you are what, advocating respect for the office, if not necessarily the occupant? As far a Trump as a person, he could be a clinical narcissist egomaniac for all I know.  But who cares?  It's kind of like the ol' Gordon Gekko quote, "greed is goo...

Re: Trump -- the last 100 days

Umm - not providing Pfizer shipment instructions for millions of dozes and then blaming some unspecified production delays at Pfizer for the slow pace of distribution. I’m guessing OAN didn’t report on that... General Gustave Perna made a statement apologizing for a miscommunication between the Fed...

Re: Trump -- the last 100 days

As could have been expected, Trump’s people are thoroughly fucking up the vaccine distribution. Like, let’s just have a few more tens of thousands of Americans die, because we’re stupid and we don’t care. Pfizer and people across all states are mystified by the federal government’s inability to do ...

In this case, bearish.  I can't call 70+M people splitters, then I would be a splitter myself.
