    In my @coinbase account, i can: 1. Wire $USD easily with just 2fa 2. Send USDC to any blockchain address 3. Earn 5.1% 4. Never have to go to a physical branch, ever. Having trouble seeing how this is not the most competitive and functional bank account in the country.

    Let's take a look at the mining death spiral FUD, kids! At $.05 KW/h 1 S9 makes about $1 of profit per day at $3800/BTC. $.06-$.08 are still profitable under these conditions, $.09 is not. The breakeven cost here for $.05 KW/h is $2300/BTC, a 40% sell-off from here. (read on)

    BCH: focused on winning a short term battle with a short sighted strategy, setting itself up for long term failure. BTC: focused on winning the war, keeping users empowered vs. centralizing forces. Dont be fooled. #bitcoin

    There is a big winter storm crossing the country right now. This storm will put a strain on power grids If prices get above $.1 - $.2 per kWh 95% of the bitcoin mining load will be offline across Texas, as usual. Let’s have a look at the storm & take a trip down memory lane 🧵

    Texan media outlets reporting that power prices will double over the next 5 years because of Bitcoin mining. Ugly truth: Power prices have already doubled in Texas over the last 5 years. Bitcoin miners had nothing to do with it. Relevant data in this tweet and thread below 1/
