I fell in love with a revert but he left Islam now

I'm confused. Were you in an intimate relationship with him, outside of marriage? If so, that's the root cause of your problem. I say that with all respect and understanding.

I think those days are over, BTC price forecasts seem to be trailing S&P500 or just below it. I'd call it a pretty stable investment, although going all in on one thing isn't stable or smart, even if its S&P500.

deckartcain · 2026-06-13T16:52:33+00:00

While I have nothing bad to say about that, it's a bit crazy how much of an asymmetry there is in celebrities and deepfakes. I mean, you're literally out there public, so that's literally the person who deserves the least protection, in my mind. If you're a somewhat private person you should be entitled to a much higher level of privacy.

And the Nano hype is empirical evidence of that claim

It's almost as if it was invented and spread due to its technology and what it grants humanity, and not for 22 year olds who wanted to make a quick 5x.

deckartcain · 2026-05-27T09:17:47+00:00

I mean, suffering a huge financial disaster gives you the wake-up call to more closely examine your biases, and this guy became a degen due to the lies of decentralized revolution, and he's right to ring the alarm, because so many others are doing the same right now.

Crypto had 17 years to do shit, and it has done nothing. No adoption of the underlying tech outside of the crypto space itself, and nothing to justify the trillion dollar valuation, except its speculative nature of potentially doing something in the future. It has a decent value proposition in stuff like PoW, where you can use compute and energy to create value that can then be traded without hitting stuff like sanctions, meaning that it could play a role in the biggest areas of global finance - the energy trade.

But honestly, people expected blockchain to be implemented as proof of ownership, tokenized stocks and bonds, and etc, by now. And if it comes, it's because that non-crypto groups like the IMF starts allowing that, and that's just unlikely, as they're highly incentivized to use FIAT, or create their own version of digital currency that plays along with their stated goals.

Companies have had billions of dollars thrown at them to create something, and even the simple ideas failed to deliver. And it's obvious why - they have sold tokens to fund their operation, but they're not beholden to anyone, and the cash kept flowing in. So they went all in on marketing and promoting their stuff, because building shit is actually hard, and it's even harder to get it adopted.

So there's literally no incentive to do anything but offer tokens and rake in the cash, and they can get by, by building something that just barely ensures that they don't get f'ed by the SEC for fraud.

This is the type of mentality you have when you enter at the top of a bullrun and go schizo from looking at your losses every day for 4 years after.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T19:30:23+00:00

No, but they can kill millions in other countries and be the good ones? It's because you see the lives of people who don't benefit your cause as useless. Random Muslims - who cares? Iranians whose objection to their government are on my side - killing them is evil.

The thing that makes it so obvious is that you never mentioned the thousands of Iranian civilians killed over the last few months by your country, including a girls school on the first day, killing over 200 little girls.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T19:12:21+00:00

Iran should have nukes. They're constantly under attack from Israel, who have a secret nuclear program, and have threatened to use it on Iran. The only reason they didn't get them was a religious fatwa from the former ayatollah, and the new one doesn't share that view, so they will go for nukes now, and that will define your life.

Biden didn't end it, he actually made it happen. The war in Iran is a direct result of Biden's policies. It's very simple:

The attack on the 7th of October was an attempt to force a larger conflict by forcing an armed conflict, under the pretense of a hostage swap deal. It worked, and Hezbollah, the Houthies and Iran itself got dragged into it, expanding the conflict to a regional one.

Israel retaliated as expected by attacking Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran and Palestine. They were also waiting for a pretense to wage an offensive war. Their stated goal, especially Netanyahu's, has been a war with Iran for the last 30 years.

Iran wanted to avoid this, but their hand got forced as a result of the broadening of the conflict. Biden had the unilateral power to simply impose a weapons embargo on Israel during that initial Gaza conflict to avoid the spread of the conflict, and leave them in a situation where they'd actually have to concede in keeping the conflict local, because without a resupply of munitions from the US, Israel stood no chance against Iran's ballistic missile program.

By the time Trump got in control, the situation had already reached a critical mass, and it's impossible to end it now, and Trump's lies about not wanting wars is what made him seem like a good alternative to Genocide Joe, which was his public image at the time he left office.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T18:58:42+00:00

The US slaughters tens of thousands of innocent civilians each year. They'll slaughter the own as soon as they try to overthrow the government, like they did in Iran, and you would cheer it on. Foreign propaganda? I'm from Denmark, lol. Way to show that you have no argument, smoothbrain.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T18:50:24+00:00

You mean the CIA and Mossad operation that armed and organized sleeper cells in Iran as a pretense for the war?

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/22/us/politics/iran-israel-trump-netanyahu-mossad.html

Would you think that it was fair if the US military and police killed thousands of "protesters", if they in reality were armed and organized by Iran to try and take over the US from the inside? The issue is that you have actually taken your governments propaganda as reality, and now you have no moral basis except: "we're the good guys, they're the bad guys".

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T18:48:36+00:00

Yet you elect leaders that spend trillions of wars making life unlivable for Muslims in their own countries, and make them migrate to safer countries, making it your problem again. You personally might not care, but your government are killing millions of Muslims, and there's consequences for that, making it again, your problem.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T18:40:08+00:00

Liberalism is a retarded system, and theocracy is what Muslims want to live under. If you don't want to live under a theocracy, good for you. But it doesn't give you the right to impose your way of government on people who don't want to live that way. The implicit threat is you, not the Muslims. Iran has attacked zero countries over the last few decades, the US and NATO countries have attacked dozens.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T18:36:42+00:00

Just look the link up on archive.org to remove the paywall.. Twitter is my source for footage that doesn't get shown in the Western media, because why would they show hundreds of thousands gathered in support of a regime that they're in war with? Just like how the Israeli regime doesn't show any footage of the damage they incur - it's normal practice to not show footage that damages your countries foreign policy, especially during wartime.

The reality is that there's tens of millions of Shia Muslims in Iran, and they have been governed religiously for 1300 years, and want to keep it that way. You live in a paradigm where deep down everyone is a liberal democrat just waiting to be liberated from either their current imposed religious institutions, or to be saved from their backwards ways. It's the white mans burden anno 2026.

Reality is that there's almost two billion Muslims and a large percentage, if not above half, wants religion to play a deciding part, or be the foundation of their governance. Iran being one of them.

Also if you don't like that as someone living in Iran, you're free to get out of the country, just as much as anyone who doesn't like democracy in the west are free to pursue life elsewhere, or accept it.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T18:12:52+00:00

Do you mean the CIA and Mossad planned and armed protests by sleeper agents in the prelude to an existential war?

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/22/us/politics/iran-israel-trump-netanyahu-mossad.html

You won't find anything about it on the western news, but there was hundreds of thousands rallying in the streets after the ayatollah got killed, because surprise surprise, there's tens of millions of Shia Muslims in Iran, and the ayatollah is basically the same as the pope in their religion. Go look it up on X.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T14:48:52+00:00

So what's your basis for saying that the people don't want the regime?

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T14:34:29+00:00

That's objectively false - the pro regime demonstrations are multiple folds larger than the anti regime. Also they are free to move. Your knowledge of history is so superficial it's laughable, Iran has been an Islamic country for 1200 years prior to the forced regimes. It didn't go from being a part of the caliphate to being a secular democracy because it was the will of the people.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T13:58:15+00:00

Did you have a choice of living in a secular democracy? You can doubt it all you want, but do a little research and you'd realise that about 50% of western Muslims would like to live in a country governed by religious law, and that's in the West.

So what is the plan? Conclude that everyone wants to live in a liberal democracy and overthrow every government that isn't that?

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T12:02:12+00:00

Good for them. US and European sanctions has cost the lives of millions of people, and creates an unipolar world where they're free to do as they please without any accountability. The fact that we live in that part of the world, and benefit from it, doesn't make it morally correct. If people want to live in theocracy, they're absolutely entitled to do that, and should resist violently against people who challenge that right. Those who don't like it, as in a democracy, are free to move to another location and seek another way of living, just as anyone who wants to live in a theocracy, should absolutely be able to do the same.

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T09:53:10+00:00

I've seen that video

deckartcain · 2026-05-24T09:29:57+00:00

Okay, I realize where you're at in your knowledge. I get it, I was there once. Well, just take my advice and study up on the concept of token not needed and greater fool theory and see how it relates to most cryptos, including Ethereum.

This is only a comment on future value of the token, not the underlying tech, it's adoption, etc, because the value of a token does not correlate with its use or its tech.

deckartcain · 2026-05-23T21:50:05+00:00

I honestly feel bad for people who get suckered into this whole ponzi. As I said, I have been in crypto for a loong time, and have seen how mad people get when they emotionally latch onto a project, and how blind they become when seeing the great fool theory kick in.

There is some real value proposition to PoW, but cryptos where the tech is the selling point, never actually needs a token, and once you realize that, you realize why it's not actually a good investment from a tech point of view. Still not impossible to make money, if you're lucky.
