Ricardo Salinas, third-richest male in Mexico and CEO of Grupo Salinas, a consortium of business, provided a keynote address throughout Bitcoin2022 Salinas goneover the issues within a fiat system as centralized entities fraudulently ensure their users for the capability of generational wealth while tearing down the worth of their currency in what he calls the “fiat scams” and its spiritual following. Salinas’s hope for a hyperbitcoinized world was made obvious when he informed the crowd at Bitcoin 2022, “Unfortunately, it’s drapes for the U.S. Sell your shitcoins, and buy bitcoin.”Ricardo Salinas, Mexico’s third-richest male and owner of organization group Grupo Salinas, tookpart in a billionaire capital allocators (BCA) panel and offered a keynote address at Bitcoin 2022 to goover the cultish habits propagated by main banking organizations and the existing fiat system. “I call it the fiat scams. That’s what it is, a scams,” Salinas stated in the BCA panel.Salinas has a history of discussing the capability for seizure associated with fiat and the capability of state stars to constantly financing their own program, as well as the hinderance to people of the impacted country states left to hold the bag of inflation. He elaborated on this point of view at Bitcoin 2022 by describing his individual experience of living through run-awayinflation. “It’s one thing to comprehend a theoretical issue, and another to have lived it in your skin,” he described to the audience throughout the BCA panel. Salinas goneover his own allowance to bitcoin throughout the panel, however more significantly, he talked through his issues as individuals are on-boarded into the area by people who pressure for 100% allowance into bitcoin. “I have 60% in bitcoin and bitcoin equities,” he discussed in the panel session.Then, Salinas concluded the panel by stating, “You wear’t have to be all in. Furthermore, when you purchase your veryfirst bitcoin, and I’ve orange-pilled a lot of goodfriends, they check the rate every 5 minutes. Get off the damn phone.”Salinas goneover living through the run-awayinflation in more information when he returned to the phase for his keynote, goingover his daddy's experience as the Mexican federalgovernment cheapened its currency into oblivion. “Of course, our business went broke,” he described of his household service, duetothefactthat his dad hadactually taken a multi-million dollar loan previous to the decline. Salinas then warned residents of the United States and other nations about taking benefit of simple cash policies as they traverse the exactsame course of Mexico. “Change the numbers, however the chart would be the exactsame,” he stated. Speaking straight on the Federal Reserve, Salinas keptinmind that, “What they are doing is printing cash out of thin air, and then making phony purchases.” Salinas likewise spoke to the piousness of its high priests in his keynote address. "This fiat faith has its high priests, and you can see them right there. And their religiousbeliefs is not tolerant,” Salinas described. "They hate anybody who is a heretic. There's a lot of apostates in this space right now." Closing his ideas, Salinas alerted the crowd of main bank digital currencies (CBDCs). "If the CBDC is provided these individuals will have complete control over how you can invest your cash," he warned.Why does Salinas believe they are so bad? Because you lose all sovereignty in the usage of your funds. “They think it's a bad concept, they close your capability to invest your cash,” Salinas anticipated.To close out the keynote in which Salinas goneover the pious stars of fiat currency, it’s requiring levels of conformity and cautionary cautions to other nations taking benefit of lax policy, Salinas left the crowd with one last believed: “Unfortunately, in the U.S., it’s drapes. This is the method to conserve yourselves. Sell your shitcoins, buy bitcoin."Bitcoin 2022 is part of the Bitcoin Event Series hosted by BTC Inc, the momsanddad business of Bitcoin Magazine.Read More.

LIVESTREAM WINNERS AND TOP POINT COMMENTS

THose of you who read the schedule already know this but the winners are:

HOLLIGAY INVOKES THE SPIRIT OF CLOSET GHOST

and

WE COOK FOR DINNER IN THE APOCALYPSE

Please join me for both! It’ should be a terrifying, thrilling time.

AND NOW, THOSE OF YOU WHO MADE ME FEEL THE WARMEST. Thank you to all who answered--I know this was super self indulgent and it means a lot to me that you took the time. So, literally 12 out of the 13 of you got at least one point (One person did not give any details, or even a quote) MAZEL.

Point allocations are below!!

One point winners:

4(?)ish years ago, you sent Jet a series of letters/cards/funeral lilies, from different Sailor Moon characters. The lilies were for Mako. One card was from Michiru, after Haruka's death. I have never been able to find them again, but I just loved the care you put into them--how they were all written specifically from the character, the fact that you even put tear stains and perfume on the cards. It was just so creative and touching, and it felt like the characters were real for an instant, mourning and living and giving you a peek at their lives. --- @kumeko (That was A Little Letter, and Mako’s was actually a separate thing for the same contest!)

“Before you get yourselves killed I want to go on record as saying this is the stupidest thing you’ve ever done.” Rei stood with her hands on her hips at the front of the garage- from that short story about Mina and Haruka strapping an engine to a shopping cart. You can really feel how rei must feel, the resigned exasperation mixed with genuine, but hidden, concern for Mina and haruka’s safety. I think i have said the exactsame thing before people i know do stupid shit. --- BeefSalad33 (oh ma, an oldie but, I think, a goodie)

OH MAN. I am always thinking nonstop about that piece where Minako confronts Seiya about bullying Haruka, specifically for the line where Mina spits out "you think she'll love you for this?" and UGH that LINE. it HAUNTS me, I want to BITE DOWN ON IT AND NEVER LET GO, I WANT TO PUT IT EVERYWHERE EVER BECAUSE IT HURTS SO GOOD, AND I DON'T EVEN CARE ABOUT SEIYA. --- @wouldntyoulichentoknow (I’m so glad that I’ve managed to make both you and jetty grit your teeth and care about Seiya at some point ahahah)

"*But flowers grow from death and decay, don’t they? That has always been true, you know that, Mako. You are a rose of perfect beauty, grown in the rich fertilizer of your loss.*

She threw the stress ball across the room, knocking over the cup on the sink, spilling the ice down the drain."

The contrast between reminding herself of how life works, and then still being bitter about it, and knowing what she is and being frustrated about it. It's a lot, when sorting out various issues- i have trauma, and that makes me better at empathizing with people, i'm adaptable long-term, and that means i can put up with some bullshit, that kind of thing, but that doesn't mean those are wholly good things. It's nice to see it put into words, and so plainly, and with such a strong reaction of it.

Roses can still grow wild, as pretentious as that sounds with how your passage resonates to me, but it's still nice to feel that. ---- @katrani (I’m so glad it resonates with you! I liked that line a lot! )

Christmas Carol, Stave 1 - “You are a terrible person,” she jutted out her chin, feigning strength. “Fareeha deserved much better than you. But,” she took a deep breath. “I still hope she forgives you, someday. Someday, I hope you will deserve it.” It feels like cheating to use the most recent thing you’ve written, but nonetheless this section conveys so much about your take on Mercy, so quickly. She may be an idealist, the peacekeeper and builder, and she may want Pharah to have a relationship with her mother that’s not this disaster, but that doesn’t stop her from acknowledging that Ana’s been the primary factor in making it what it is and telling Ana that directly. I love how you write Mercy (and Tracer for that matter) as very warm characters who try to see the best in their situations but won’t gloss over the fact that sometimes, someone does have to be shot in the fucking face. “Good” doesn’t mean “hopelessly naive”, even with a pacifist, and I appreciate that you have characters who show that.

Bonus, and a fringe case as technically part of the Fushigi Yuigi hateblog: “She was still trying to get home, had been unable to get Tamahome to let her poison him, and then Nakago had hugged her into his chest until she had been forced to flatten him with a punch to the nads. She was tired, she was hungry, and she was trying to have a moonlight bath to consider her options and wash the stink of a man off of her.

And then, Tamahome, again.” - Haruka-gets-dumped-into-Fushigi-Yuugi-as-Yui was a delight that entire episode, but this post was one of the best. Is it really just narrativizing your frustrations with the many, many writing choices that were made here? Absolutely. But it’s a fun little bit of comedic pacing here, especially with the utter exhaustion of Haruka that this bullshit isn’t over yet. (“Fuck my life” to the moon wondering if Usagi could help and regretting how hard it would be to drown herself are close runners-up on that front.) --- Regalli

(Mercy is, in many ways, my attempt to write someone who is MOSTLY a pacifist that I can respect. It’s not easy for me! I often find pacifism to be cowardice, because so often in life the people I know who are pacifists are, well, not the folks in the street. So i thought, could you write someone who is very hesitant to kill, who believes that even Doomfist, even Reaper, even whoever, deserve care if they are hurt, who believes that a sword will not leave her hand free to uplift the fallen, and make her brave? And make her strong? And so was born, Mercy, who proved that, yeah that person, at least in my mind, can exist.)

I think one of my favorite passages from your writing is from "The Rest is Commentary". Particularly the part that starts with "I am a doer. " That entire paragraph is wonderfully written, with mix of beautifully descriptive language to describe *why* you don't trust words. It's slightly paradoxical, but it also fits with the rest of the essay (?) so well. And even beyond that, I love reading when you write about your faith. You are deeply devout woman, and a personal aspiration to me. When you write about your faith, it reminds me that there is work that needs to be done to live it, and not easy work either. But it is very much worth every bead of sweat, and every drop of blood. --- @shavedjudomonkey

(Thank you so much! I love that people have connected so much with my Jewish writing)

3 point answers:

From Requiem for the Great Consummation, I adore the word play with "compose." Ie, in the line, "Michiru folded her hands in her lap and composed herself." Why? I'm a musician. So, Michiru, with her music, holds a special place in my heart. (Why Ami gets the music attacks is beyond me. WTF?) I don't think the writers ever really understood what it takes to be a musician, and while fanfic writers often include Michiru's music, I've never really seen it done well. (I'm sure it has been. I just haven't seen it.) Music is all about structure. It has to feel free and soaring, but it can only be that because of the intense amounts of tension and structure underneath. A kite without a string plummets. When I reach for high, soaring notes, that's when I have to be most conscious of having a solid base. Making music Is constant tension. So, often when I see writers portray musicians, it's all "she never felt so free and untethered as when she sang/played the,violin/piano/whatever." And I think, "wow, really? She must have been Crap." So, back to compose/compose. This wordplay shows that tension. The "I have rehearsed this 5,000 times and am still working so hard I'm sweating standing still in this freezing auditorium so that it can look and sound completely free and easy." This is Michiru's entire life. She is composing herself. She is outlining complex rhythms and tensions and resolutions that even though you hear when the piece is played, you don't fully take in or understand, and all you consciously comprehend is 'wow, pretty.' Because that's how music works. Organs have keys that can't be heard by the human ear, and composers include them in their pieces. Why? We can't hear them! But we feel them. If you look at the score for an orchestral piece, it contains So. Many. Notes. So much going on. But when you listen, all you hear is that melodic theme. But if you take out anything underneath, things change and cam fall apart. Michiru lives her life like that. She creates herself, composes herself, and it looks elegant and free and easy, but it is so so very tightly controlled and rehearsed, and that particular wordplay showed off that side of Michiru's music, which is one I don't get to see explored much. --- @incorrecttact

(Thank you so much for this!! I am NOT a musician, but so much of Michiru and music speaks to me, the structure of it, the discipline, the way it allows you to express yourself while hiding behind something else. And yes! I think of that double meaning so much!)

I want you to know... that this was very, very difficult. I made a notepad and collected shit I'd pulled out from your work where I could find comments where I did such, and then I AGONIZED. Here is where I landed but know it's so close with other things god.

"Winston worked in earnest at his inventions, and Emily went back to teaching, and the two of them began to cook for each other again. Family dinners once a week resumed, grew with some of the new recruits that were being folded into their family. Pharah and Mercy’s daughter took them to the zoo, the park, out into the world. Dva had continued the game they had all been playing before Tracer died, their party picking up after the terrible and well-done loss of their beloved rogue. ***Life did not return, but it grew forward. It bloomed again.***" — A Clock's Fading Chime

I ended up choosing this one because I hate it a little when I read it. Not because it's not good but because it's SO PAINFUL. I love so much about the way you talk about love, and I think grief is all a part of that. We grieve because we loved. The idea of the grief period, especially for those in a close circle of a lost person, being like the cycle of the seasons where a flower may die but life blossoms in the soil it left behind is so evocative and perfect and everything leading up to that last line is the soil for which that line got to bloom. The slow, simple way life returns to them, that they adjust to the heavy rock in their pack (A piece of yours I revisited for this and a metaphor I will always carry with me) and start growing stronger together. And that they find it WITH EACH OTHER too just god, it kills me. But would I rather wish it wasn't necessary? YUP. FOR SURE. It hurts to think about someone who plays Lena's role dying in our own lives and trying to mend the rift between those left behind. But it brings all those possibilities and who may have gone already before to mind because it feels so grounded in the reality of what these experiences are like and shit it's just a great sampling of everything I love about your work. Beautiful prose, saying so much with so little, grounded in stuff that feels read, and ending on a banger, transfixing line. ---- @thoughtfulfangirling

(Thank you so much! I LOVED that whole series of fics around that, as it is in the way that I often like to toy with the nature of grief, and the way that we go on. Things aren’t ever the same, but we go on. And I’m so glad you gt into it too! It’s very self-indulgent for me, basically everything with OW, so I love when other poepl like it)

Given that I am not Jewish, I hope this isn't overstepping my bounds, but your passover Seder speech really spoke to me this year. Specifically the bits about the relationship between cowardice and metaphorical bondage:

"This is a celebration of our freedom from bondage, but it is a also a reminder, a call that we must ensure we do not, in cowardice, return ourselves to bondage. "

Without explaining too much, and risking the kind of parasocial oversharing that you lamented the other day in a post, this particular push and pull has been at the forefront of my mind this year. The intense gravity that the familiar, the easy, the safe, can have, versus the genuine terror of pressing out into the unknown in search of something better.

Trying to change, and to do better, and to press on, is fucking terrifying, and hard. But, that is not an excuse. And I appreciated the reminder. --- @blastoise-m

(Not overstepping at all! I am so glad that it speaks to you, I really, really love this kind of writing, and I really should get back to doing more of my Jewish writing. My rabbi is leaving, because we apparently don’t have the money to have a rabbi! And he’s readying people to be lay leaders, and called on me to be someone who could give Divrei Torah (sort of like our sermons) because of my tendency to do stuff like this, and it’s very scary! But really exciting as that’s the kind of stuff that had me interested in being a rabbi, is picking this stuff apart and applying it to our own lives HI YOU ASKED FOR NONE OF THIS SORRY)

"There are no beautiful deaths in this world, and am sorry that you must know it. Rei never was allowed to say goodbye. I watched Haruka grow weaker and more ill every single day. We each have been jealous of the other, at turns, but I tell you this truth now: Our lives mean much more than our deaths. You and Seiya had a wonderful love story, and you raised a wonderful daughter, and unfortunately it is very often difficult to finish a story in a satisfying sort of way. It is not the end of your story, simply of hers. For you, it is a new chapter"

I think this is still one of my top 5 fav fics that you've ever written. I still think of it randomly once in a while. It's such a small moment but it sold me Usagi and Seiya in a way never would have expected. It's such a moment of growth for both Usagi and Muchiru. A small moment of connection for two people who are so different.

This is wrapped up in the entire MaS series, which I could never separate from this work let alone this quote. The entire series is a series about love and all its many permutations. About finding meaning in a world when you think your meaning has been taken away. About carrying on when you think there's no reason to do so. And I think this quote really encapsulates all of that.

This story, this entire series, is one the favorite things I've ever read and I'm so glad that you decided to share it. --- @madegeeky

(I truly and in all ways love how much you love this fic, it cheers em and makes me so happy every time I am reminded of it. And thank you for loving that line! I FEEL that line. It’s been true for every death that has come to me, so I love when it has meaning for others. )

The 5 point answer:

"God separated the sky and the sea, and that’s true, but there will always be the horizon where they blend."

I'm not much of a quote person. I'll often remember the feeling or the takeaway but rarely the words themselves. This, though, has stuck with me.

There is so much in this world, and so many people, who see everything as absolutes. Black and white. Good or bad. Right or wrong. And as I've grown and changed, that has come to bother me more and more.

This quote is such an elegant and accessible way to express how that oh-so-common point of view is a fallacy. And really it's just a lovely line that invokes both lovely imagery and feeling. ---- @seolh

I FORGOT I WROTE THIS, and like the completely arrogant piece of shit I am, when I read it was I was like, “Oh fuck, that’s a solid line.” And yes I am with you on getting older and relizing that the horizon line can be so fuzzy out there, sometimes, and this quote WEIRDLY came back to me when I needed it, a lot, and so thank you!

Four popular softwareapplication designers signedupwith an on-stage chat at the Bitcoin 2022 conference to describe and talkabout CoinJoin and CoinSwap, 2 kinds of collective Bitcoin deals that lookfor to boost the personalprivacy of the included celebrations.“The most crucial thing is to usage the tools and motivate others, describe to them,” stated lead designer of Sparrow Wallet Craig Raw. “Normalize CoinJoin and CoinSwap duetothefactthat they are truly for personalprivacy. If you think that [privacy] is a standard human best, why must we be embarrassed of that?”In addition to Raw, lead designer of Fully Noded Fontaine, Suredbits designer and The Bitcoin Company co-founder Ben Carman, and CommerceBlock CEO Nicholas Gregory likewise tookpart in the panel.Even though a CoinJoin can’t getridof the “past path” of the bitcoin funds being CoinJoined, the collective deal makesitpossiblefor the break of presumptions, recognized in chain analysis as "heuristics," that eager observers typically takeadvantageof to track and de-anonymize otherwise pseudonymous deals.Similar to a CoinJoin, a CoinSwap likewise sets out to break on-chain ownership heuristics through a joint deal. However, the latter varies in the method that the deal is built. While a CoinJoin generally needs individuals to develop a routine Bitcoin deal together, a CoinSwap leverages smart agreements to successfully swap the precise exactsame quantity of bitcoin inbetween 2 individuals. The clever agreement assurances that either celebration doesn’t cheat.“The concern that we're attempting to address is the basic problem that bitcoin is not fungible at the procedure layer, so we have to address that in the application layer,” Raw stated.Out of the 2 methods, CoinJoin has got more appeal over the years. JoinMarket, Samourai and Wasabi all have their own applications of a CoinJoin, and each caters to various users. While JoinMarket is fully decentralized, Samourai and Wasabi utilize a centrally-coordinated CoinJoin application understood as ZeroLink."A planner simply takes the inputs and arranges them," Raw stated. "There is no custody of funds, we are talking about taking a bit or information and rearranging it."CoinSwap, on the other hand, was upuntil justrecently exclusively an location of researchstudy. In February, Mercury Wallet endedupbeing the veryfirst CoinSwap execution to be released. The wallet, of which CommerceBlock is behind, executes a unique layer on top of Bitcoin based on the idea of statechains to allow users to rapidly transfer complete custody of an quantity of BTC to anybody with increased personalprivacy and without paying miner charges.“A statechain is a Bitcoin Layer 2 that … is a method for moving your UTXOs off chain. We swap the coins and personal secrets in a non-custodial method. There is no on-chain taint as CoinJoin has,” Gregory stated, including that there is a threat that you end up with an unfavorable coin, for example from a understood hack.“But you can testify that you tookpart in a CoinSwap,” he included, as a method to show you were not behind that past coin history.While lotsof individuals still think that Bitcoin makesitpossiblefor confidential deals, fact is the unique peer-to-peer (P2P) digital currency is probably more transparent than the standard monetary system where banks and corporations preserve a record of deals and residents can utilize money to gothrough personal deals that are just understood to their equivalents.At the bare minimum, strategies like CoinJoin and CoinSwap allow bitcoin funds to reach the level of personalprivacy the routine person is accustomed to in their day-to-day U.S. dollar deals, since both tools can bring positive personalprivacy even if the user had to supply individual info when they bought that bitcoin.“What we are asking for here is not weird, it is a typical thing,” Raw stated.Bitcoin 2022 is part of the Bitcoin Event Series hosted by BTC Inc, the momsanddad business of Bitcoin Magazine.Read More.
