Lol. That was totally not on purpose. Nice catch, albeit the “what an asshole” bit might need tweaking.

In my country most Bitcoin illiterate believes that adding BTC to your know it's. Sign of respect and wealth
Because of the price.
If someone is found wearing such a shirt, They would take it casual.
They are moved by the luxury they see not one in your wallet (If most even know what that is).

Another Frenchman kidnapped and with a finger amputated held for ransom for crypto, this time the father of an unnamed "rich crypto entrepreneur" : https://www.bfmtv.com/paris/paris/paris-le-gerant-d-une-societe-de-cryptomonnaies-retrouve-sequestre-un-de-ses-doigts-sectionne_AN-202505030361.html (link in French only)
Worrying trend.
Worrying trend.
Maybe boasting about one's crypto wealth is not such a bright idea after all?
Although I am worried as well.
Someone finds out you or a family member have a few dozen thousands in some wallet, that would be enough for them to take your key from you by force, because that is way easier than robbing a bank.
Interesting you mentioned this. I was about to go out to do my shopping and had on an old teeshirt I bought years ago that has BITCOIN and the logo splashed all across the front.
And then I was like "ok wait, I better change my teeshirt. Maybe ten years ago cool... today? No way. I don't need to advertise to that dude with the 5$ wrench."
<rummages through tee-shirts> "Lets see now...oh here we go ...this MasterCam one looks cool..."

Very sad.
Yeah, I was following this story through @ZachXBT on X. Really sad story, I feel for the elderly couple. Zach also mentioned the btc originated from "interesting" sources. Intriguing, I want to know more.
I’d venture to guess any private individual holding 3.5K+ bitcoin today aquired them from “ interesting sources”.
But whatever, a mind blowing heist.
It’s interesting to note that had this been a bank heist hack of equal fiat value it would have been splashed
all over msm. I only first heard the story after coming to this here famous thread.
Agreed very intriguing. I Will be following any updates.

Its why I love this here famous thread.
To be honest, I enjoy the off topic random non-political crap amongst all the og's more than the proper on topic bitcoin talk. (Jay takes care that when the thread goes too far off the rails.)
But don't get me wrong, this is the first place I come for the latest lowdown on King Daddy.
Yeah I love my morning brew too. I just chuck a couple of scoops of Market Basket (that I fresh grind in the store)
in the old Mr Coffee every morning. Works for me. Coffee is coffee. You know like alcohol is alcohol, weed is weed etc.

So while we are on the topic of free lunches...
At this point in my life, I derive far more of a reward providing a free lunch, rather than getting one.
Albeit, I will say if the other party insists on treating me, (like last week, as mentioned in previous post)
I let them, because I know they are thinking like me.

I think it is highly possible that the closer they get to the answer the more exponential the problems become, similar to reaching the speed of light.
Something that always keeps coming back to me is the phrase "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch".
Exactly. And it's not just a smart-sounding phrase—it was proven mathematically in 1995 by Wolpert & Macready. I remember referring to their paper when I was doing research back in the late 90s.
[Santa Fe Institute] William Macready, David Wolpert — No Free Lunch Theorems for Search
The full paper in PDF format can be found in the above link.
Hello. I want to give you a simple and concise summary of the article "No Free Lunch Theorems for Search".
<snipped out for brevity about free lunches......>
In short, there is no "free lunch" here.
Actually, the paper refers to <snipped out words way above my head...> So, there can be free lunches if you don't have to evaluate objective functions after all.
Well, I had lunch at the bar last week with my work buddy and he kindly covered the tab, including my Gin and Tonic with a twist...so there is that.

I went down to the local hardware store and bought a 5$ wrench and told the checkout dude "I'm gonna be rich!"
He looked at me perplexed, like I was some sort of crazy. (I am actually)
Apparently that was an inside joke..... very inside.

Hey bros.
Celebrating my first "wind fall" Social Security check that just landed in my bank account.
Went down to the local Social Security office on Monday to ask what was taking so long with my application for benefits.
Turns out it had nothing to do with all this Muskie Doge nonsense.
Social Security agent.... You put down March 1st as your start benefits date but you reached full retirement age 6 months ago.
Me...I know, I'm still working full time. I like my job. And they like me. Its why I'm still there after 30 years.
Social Security agent ... That's fine, but you can keep working and collect full benefit now with no penalty.
So would yo like to change your start benefits date to October 2024 and receive 6 months of retro benefit for first check?
Me....Well.....ok, twist my arm.
Added bonus...
My company just announced branch closure. Laying off everyone over next 2 months. (They offered me a position at new location. "Do you want to move?" me..."ummm... no thanx". lol)
I get 6 months full pay/benefits severance plus a 15% retainer bonus for staying on until they close this summer.. And paying me for all unused vacation time.
Glad I didn't retire in October. Perfect timing...lol

Congrats on retirement!.
That said, sorry pal, they pulled a "fast" one on you. By going back 6 mo, you soc sec payment permanently decreases 2/3X6=4%.
Yes, you'll get a lump sum of 6 mo, but, since you already "got" those 6mo credits, why throw them away (in a long run)?
With numbers: say, your Ssec at FRA is $3000, then at +6 mo it would have been 3000X1.04=3120/mo.
You would have gottten 120x12=$1440 extra per year for starters and then, with each COLA, you would be increasing the "extra".
You may say that...so what, I've got that sweet $3000X6=$18000. It is so, but it depends on your "projected" longevity.
Typically, the breakeven point is at about 10-12 years, give or take.
You "won" if you live roughly less than about 12 years, "lost" if more than about 12 years.
The exact numbers are not achieved by simply dividing 18000 by 14400 (albeit i used those for simplicity) because there would be a change in COLAs for "you" who took the lump some vs theoretical "you" who did not and the difference will accumulate.
That said, I intend to take at FRA and also keep working. More cash flow, more btc buying potential.
EDIT: adjusted some numbers to more accurate values.
No fast one.
I saw the numbers both ways. I am fully aware my monthly is lower than if I'd have taken March 1st.
They totally left it up to me. I have researched the numbers.
There is argument to be made to start collecting as as soon as one is eligible at 62.
Like you said, who knows how long you got. I might get hit by a bus tomorrow.
I waited to 67 FRA. I'm good with that.
I decided to go for lump sum with a slightly smaller monthly number.
My company laying me off in a couple of months time was also a factor.
Hell, the way things are looking now, there ain't gonna be anything left in the pot in 10 years.
Or some idiot not to be mentioned is just gonna fuck everything up.
I'm totally good with my decision.

Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
I am genuinely curious as to why some people hate bitcoin so much.
....
....
I don't think its so much they hate it, its just that most normies see it as a weird asset
that is way too volatile, associated with massive scammery and the plethora of shitcoin nonsense (sorry bros ....spoiler alert, it is )
and also they are completely financially uneducated on it.
I mean what faithful bank customer is gonna store their life's savings on a piece of paper (or some gadget that apparently can get stolen and hacked if you don't bury it in the Sahara desert somewhere)
with a million random characters on it. With the caveat that if you lose/forget those
numbers, words or whatever, you can't just call up customer service and say "um, I forgot my password ..."
I myself, with years of experience, get paranoid when ever I'm doing a transaction that I'll fuck something up.
Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Insert English plural "s" where needed.
.....
The plural of bitcoin is bitcoin, so no "s" is needed.

Had to clue my nosy brother in on this matter...
My brother ... (whenever bitcoin pumps) "So how many bitcoins do you have anyway?"
Me... "More than zero, same as what you should have.
.....Also, get educated...the plural of bitcoin is bitcoin."

... Yes. The USA citizen's elected that whiny douchbag.
The fact that USA citizens (ignorant phone swiping masses who live in their reality bubble) elected a "whiny douchebag" is the least of their problems.
Yes of course he absolutely is a whiney douchebag, but if that was all he was, who gives a shit.
At the end of the day, everyone is a whiny douchebag, at some time or another, about things they don't like, me included.
Taking over Greenland, Panama, Canada nonsense. Renaming the Gulf of Mexico. Immigrants eating cats and dogs and committing all the crimes etc. All a load of bollocks distractions.
What the ignorant masses don't realize is what they have voted for.
I'm not gonna get into details because most normies dgaf and don't have a clue.
Precisely what Orange Felon Dumpster and his butt buddy, FElon Muskrat and henchmen are counting on. Their Maga base are ignorant brainwashed minions.
Project 2025? What the fuck is that? they say.
The first six weeks should give anyone with half a brain a clue.
Its called FAFO. Fuck around and find out.
Its not a left wing, right wing, own the libs, fuck the rethugs thing. The billionaires are the new masters. And they don't give a shit what your ideology is.
