"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

That article is clickbait garbage.
"clients and beyond are largely treating it as a new asset class" says goldman. But the misleading headline is that goldman itself is endorsing btc. The article just says other entities are buying btc, not that goldman is buying it.
Nah, you are simply being too thick headed to see straight and probably don't even understand how the technology works or why it is applicable to real life situations. And it has TONS of applications in pretty much EVERYTHING that is done in every industry.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

So are you saying major financial intuitions aren't moving into the space? Are you that arrogant that you think you have greater insight then them on future regulatory framework? Your take on this market has been painfully wrong throughout, maybe it's time to reevaluate

What can they do? Ban BTC? Banning BTC is like banning internet, I think there is nothing they can do really, they can try to regulate, move the market to make BTC less valuable, but because it's decentralized, they don't have much power.
I'm not an expert, but I think BTC is here to stay and it's gonna take more value, but it will never replace FIAT I think.
they dont need to ban it they just make it's exchange into fiat illegal or the central banks release their own coins which is inevitable

then who the f@ck wants to be stuck with 30K worth of nothing

They aren't going to ban exchanges into fiat and CBDC's do not have that right properties to make it obsolete.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

That‘s a point, china is showing it right now.

But besides providing decentralized finance, blockchain technologies can offer much more. Take Vechain as an example, they have been rated with five stars by the TÜV Saarland in germany and they work with investors like BMW, Beyer, Wallmart, …

If bitcoin keeps plummeting, sosuave will start banning anyone who criticizes it. No politics here pal, mmkay?

I said holding on after a bubble pops is a dumb idea and an insult to the art of trading. And I stand by that statement.

Maybe you should go back to art class because you clearly missed the bottom and would of never rebought back and would of missed the move back up. Majority of people should not be traders and try to time markets, especially with such a volatile and asymmetric asset. In the moment it is incredibly hard to call tops and bottoms.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I agree, the moments I lost money was when I tried trading, just hodling is way less stressful and much easier.

This problem is solved by decentralized exchanges.

Same with me, learned some tough lessons before. You really have to become a student of it to have long term success, even then still have seen people wiped out.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

The bottom is very close...once the Death cross hits the price likely will drop again and then rebound quickly as it is a lagging indicator that tends to happens late in a bear correction...

Be vigilant and be ready to go big...BTC still on pace for 100K plus by December once institutions start putting their money back in after they wait for the bottom post death cross...

I still think BTC will hit six figures by the end of the year. With all these economists saying the biggest crash in history is coming who knows what's going to happen. What I do know is crypto is getting more popular by the day. There is so much money to be made the prices will only go higher. You have Paypal, venmo offering it and now banks will start offering to purchase and store your crypto. I think regulatory clarity needs to happen before the real big money gets poured in. I've been investing in a couple projects that I think will be used with CBDC. Ones that there were mentioned in the IMF.


wouldn't advise anyone to be getting involved in bitcoin

great if you can get in and out on the swing but aside from that you may aswell put your money on the roulette wheel

the concept of decentralised digital currency is inherently flawed because it will never be allowed to become mainstream and without it becoming mainstream and a real world asset/ commodity it's just worthless digital junk

inflation cannot be controlled with bitcoin
Tax can be evaded easily with bitcoin
Autonomy is readily available with bitcoin

sounds fantastic but ask yourselves in the big brother society we live in why any central gov or bank would allow this to happen ?

Crypto is only worth what someone below you in the pyramid is willing to pay
You make me want to be more. The dollar has become junk that's lost 95% of it's value. All the rich n wealthy own digital assets like BTC whether they tell you or not. There is too much money to be made for investors not to pour in money. It's people like you that stopped some people from buying who now regret it.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
