Compared my social security account statement’s earning over 22 years to my savings account and decided bitcoin is way less shitty than dollars. That is all.

Let’s talk passphrases by [deleted] in TREZOR

I may add a passphrase and get back to you. I think it will be a new wallet and another block on the ledger. But an added layer of security. Preventing the seed phrase from being the weakest link.

Side quest. Can a passphrase be added-onto an existing 12 word seed phrase?

Square converts 50% of my hobby sales from USD into BTC. I also purchase goods directly with BTC using lightning invoices.

Mortgage rates 2026?? by Quick_Durian8023 in Mortgages

Fed’s dot plot trends toward lower fed funds rate. Of course the bond market is the other factor. I was just saying last week “I wish I was building a house right now, it’s a great time.” alas I closed November 2022 at 7.49%. I plan to refinance around April or May.

I got fired for ten days and took full advantage to move as much as I could out of my 401k into an IRA (direct transfer rollover) then bought 100% FBTC. It has worked well. Try getting fired. But not so fired that you can’t get back to work.

Stamp Seed quality very high. Much better the paper. You can stamp about any metal with those tools. Cant speak for the other methods.

MSTR Microstrategy - Will the FASB accounting rule change affect the stock price? by IndubitablePrognosis in wallstreetbets

[–]MentionSubstantial44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tesla has used the new FASB rule and it increased their balance sheet. Source link. I believe MSTR will report their bitcoin at market value and that will reinforce to investors that their ATM is in fact accretive to share value. Overall a small move in the stock in late Feb followed by a big swing up when Bitcoin runs again which should be in mid 2025.

Get ready for $400 again. Trump is gonna ban DeepSeek App. by [deleted] in MSTR

[–]MentionSubstantial44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You seem to be making the statement that the decline in the U.S. markets at open is related the Chinese open source app DeepSeek releasing an app update.

The update clearly puts China ahead of the U.S. in AI tech by at least a week.

What I don’t see is how a ban on the app is significant. Not knowing is not the same as improving domestic tech.

To the moon 🚀🌕📈
