"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Who the hell looks at a 6 month chart in crypto??
Almost every major player in finance and tech who was a naysayer has conceded this is the future. Starting to think people who still can't accept it are mentally disordered. Granted a lot of cryptos are actually a ponzi but denying there isn't a use case for rules based secure decentralized money and financial services is insanity. The past 2yrs have basically been a giant ad campaign by governments and central banks.
 

"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.

My point was that a 6 month chart in crypto is like 20 years in stocks. It's irrelevant in trying to determine anything.

It's one of those times that I really have no clue what the market is going to do, nothing would surprise me. PTSD from 2018 just makes me lean bear to be mentally prepared for a longer duration haha
Same. I wish I had gone in harder when there was the 1st meeting with the fed. I did a bit but I expected a big crash. I still do. Got dry powder ready to go. It eats away at me with the current level of inflation.

If you have been watching what's gone on the past years, crypto has been the ultimate resource. Particularly with the draconian nature's of most world government.

To people that understand what they are doing yea

Problem is 80% of the population don't they just do whatever their governments and national media tell them most dont even understand what a fiat currency is let alone DEFI

The elite have spent millennia building this system they are not going to allow a renegade decentralised currency to threaten it

It has been allowed to get to this stage for a reason possibly by accident but i am far more skeptical and believe it is by design
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

If the US was smart they'd start releasing some reserves and subsidizing the US shale drillers to heavily offset what Russia supplies in oil.

At one point the US was supplying the most barrels of oil per month in the world not too long ago when the shale drillers were running fully.

There is no reason why the US can't easily replace the oil we get from Russia.
Yup. HUSA up 494% yesterday in a single day

That's anything, there are people that do and people that don't. Just because some do not it doesn't change it's legitimacy.

Looks like regulations are embracing it. It is too embedded into society and powerful people/corps to stop now, cat is out of the bag.

I wouldn't bank on it , it's no secret fiat is going to collapse soon inflation is out of control and they can't / don't know how to stop it

They want CBDC's in so need a regulatory framework in for them not to benefit us

The comments made from the SEC were vague and no committal i would wait to read the entire framework before people start singing from the rooftops that the US government is backing bitcoin and sh*tcoins


Just wait ....

It doesn't matter. It won't matter what happens, you will still find reasons to trash it. Your bias is ridiculous to be honest and the more dumb sh!t you come up with, the more historically idiotic you will look in 10 years.

All it takes is for the government to control your internet. Then they can take your coins whenever they please. No thanks

They can't. Stop spreading bullsh!t and misinformation. You clearly don't understand how this works so either actually take the time to learn or admit you don't.

There is only one way to "take coins" and that is to get control of your wallet. Phishing sites are the most common way by tricking people into clicking on them and then connecting to the site. Could also gain access if they have your seed phrase.

I think it is just the saltiness of thinking they missed it which in reality is not true. Although I imagine these conversations will deeply haunt him in 5-10yrs.

This is actually pretty sad. The writing is clearly on the wall and you are clinging to some far off theory with no actual evidence, when all data points otherwise.

Really? Government can’t control isps? Or add a password requirement before you log into the net? Make having an internet connection a reward only if you be a good little citizen? I wouldn’t put it past them. I’m not spreading misinformation because I never claimed it was fact. But I love that word, easy to see what side of the fence you’re on ;)
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

It's strange crypto disciples refuse to see any other scenario than it "going to the moon"

I have looked at both sides of the coin and unfortunatley it doesn't add up to me

Bitcoin for example

Can't be used as a payment network ..... to slow , to volatile, to expensive

Claims of it being a store of value are again nonsense because it's underpinned by its exchange to fiat currencies

"it's a hedge against inflation" oh really !?! well to me it looks like its been in direct correlation with the rest of the stock market which has been barcoding / flatline for the last 6 months as inflation begins to take squeeze economies

So what is the next narrative that's going to be pumped as a use case ?

Maybe next year we will be able to build houses out of it .......

That is far different than "taking crypto". Spray enough sh!t on the wall and some sticks tho I guess. If not, just keep moving the target.

You really have no clue what you are talking about. Not sure why I am wasting my time.

Layer two solutions will handle small transactions then settle in bulk on the base layer. Lightening network is already handling daily transactions in El Salvador, they also can run fiat currencies on their payment rails which greatly reduces the fees associated with visa, mastercard, amex etc

All markets are somewhat interconnected since many of the same people operate in both and there is so much leverage in the market. In a liquidity event many assets get sold off.

Over the long term, it has been a great hedge against inflation. You should of included the previous years returns, all emerging fast growth tech is highly volatile. Nature of the beast.
 

"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.
