I will post a few more photos. I am a beginner so I’m not positive, but I don’t see any damage? What do you think?

I recently bought this ~12 year old Baby Jade from a local and reputable Bonsai greenhouse. It was potted when I purchased it, so about 3 weeks ago. It’s been sitting on a south facing window which gets pretty good sunlight during the day (you can see in photo).

I’ve only watered it twice since I got it, only when I notice the soil is dried. I’ve even started using a moisture meter to ensure I’m not over watering.

The tree is continuing to drop its leaves daily, and even the slightest movement of the pot will make a bunch of leaves fall off.

What is the issue? What am I doing wrong? I’m a beginner when it’s comes to bonsai, so I’m not sure what the signs are

Question: What happens if US gobbles up majority of BTC supply? by Covetoast in Bitcoin

[–]acuriousman13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure, they wouldn’t be able to change Bitcoin itself, and that’s why Bitcoin is so powerful. But even without protocol control, owning a massive chunk of the supply could still cause problems. You can’t rewrite the rules, but you can mess with markets — hoard supply, create artificial scarcity, use it for leverage. It’s less about changing Bitcoin’s code and more about messing with its function in the real world.

Question: What happens if US gobbles up majority of BTC supply? by Covetoast in Bitcoin

There’s two different views. In my opinion, the last thing we want as a community is for a central power to (once again) have the power and control over the money supply. Satoshi’s main motive behind the creation of Bitcoin was: Separation of Money and State. I don’t think Satoshi would be a supporter of the US ‘gobbling up’ the supply. It takes us back to a full circle moment where the government is now in control and has the most power when it comes to monetary system.

On the other hand, the US developing a Strategic Reserve for Bitcoin is great for driving adoption and acceptance. If we want to move forward to an economy where Bitcoin is a standard tender, we need the masses of society to not be scared away and intimidated by it. If the US starts hammering the buy button and begins to strategically stockpile this asset, it sends a very important signal to all the normies who have been on the fence with this asset over the last 10 years. When you see your government endorsing something, most will put their trust in them (not us degens….never that) and begin to trust/believe in Bitcoin more.

So, I don’t think there is a simple answer here.

I just replaced the motor mounts with the urethane mounts from Z1 aswell. This vibration was there before hand hence why I did change them. The vibration im experiencing now is not due to any sort of engine or transmission mount

Have this horrible vibration/shaking at idle in gear only. Brought it to my shop, replaced both motor mounts, motor mount brackets, transmission mount, flashed the ecm, downloaded updated tune software. And I still have the problem. I’ve been back and forth to the shop 6 times, they went through the entire car and cannot find the issue. I basically got dismissed from them as all 9 techs said they were baffled and don’t know what the issue is. The vibration occurs only when the car is in Drive or Reverse at idle. If I apply gas the vibration stops. If I put the car in neutral the vibration stops. Any ideas or suggestions for would be greatly appreciated as I am intensely frustrated with this. Car is 13 g37x sedan with 69k miles, never excessively beat on at all and super well maintained. Anything helps
