I will not engage in ad hominem attacks. #Bitcoin is a complex topic. But it is not correct to ascribe all of the energy cost of issuance to the set of transactions also in the block. Only 2% goes to transaction fees, 98% to asset creation: that is highly reused.

#Bitcoin market cap is about 4 times that of the top 3 stable coins combined. So I don’t get this point. Stablecoins serve a few functions (1) bridge to #BTC or crypto, (2) alternative way to get near-dollars for those who don’t have access to USD, and (3) access to yield.

Stablecoins are far and away the use case for crypto that has gained the most traction, but that’s not exactly a trophy for crypto over fiat. It’s crypto facilitating access to fiat, specifically USD. There appears to be strong demand for this avenue of access to fiat.

At the end of the day, almost all Bitcoin miners are really about the ROI and not Bitcoin. If it wasn’t the case, we would have robust Bitcoin only pools. Most “Bitcoin miners” can’t even name a Bitcoin only pool. Let alone hash with one.

SEC complaint against TFL and Do Kwon alleges that LUNA and UST are securities. In a novel theory, the SEC not only characterizes UST as an investment contract but as a security bc it could be exchanged for a security (LUNA). Under this theory, nearly anything can be a security.

Someone who believes that #Bitcoin will end up with a negative price also believes that the Fed would be able to shrink their balance sheet to zero. Neither will happen. Yes Fed will shrink it some. Also: #BTC got 9% further away from zero past 24 hours.

The rule aims to keep customer assets segregated, so if an adviser or custodian files for bankruptcy like Celsius or FTX, users’ assets would be protected.

But the volatility! They say. #Bitcoin is convex, friends. Jensen ratio for a power law of block height model (Lindy tech adoption model) is now 5.9 >> 1. E[F(x)] > F[E(x)] where F is your favorite model and E expectation value means it skews very favorably to the upside #HODL
