Dont forget 26,000,000,000,000 debt.
There's no physical bitcoin -- it's all bits. If you have the password, you have the bitcoin.
Many people choose to have an "exchange" hold their bitcoins for them. They then use a password to the exchange to access their bitcoins. If the exchange is hacked or their password to the exchange is hacked, buh-bye bitcoins.
My son mined bitcoins soon after they came out -- when they were worth about a dollar. He had a total of eight, four in his own possession and four stored with Mt. Gox, the original bitcoin exchange. Someone unknown ran off with the bitcoins stored in Mt. Gox -- an unsolved crime to this day.
Says the USAID took down 8chan.
What you describe is exactly why I’m not big on Bitcoin. I like physical wealth, the kind you can put downstairs in the gun safe and not have to worry about someone hacking in and stealing it. And if they try to break in and take the contents, they risk having a few 0.45” diameter holes added to their body from about 15 feet away.
I can guard my stuff, but I don’t trust someone else to guard my bitcoin. And unlike a bank, there’s no FDIC for bitcoin.
Also, glad that your son was able to retain the 4 in his own possession. Guard them with multiple layers of security.

Such a punchable face
As I understand the concept of ownership of a blockchain digital asset:
1. The asset is kept in a crypto wallet, which may or may not be provided by an Exchange.
2. Ownership of the wallet and its contents is defined by ownership of the Private cryptological key to the (digital blockchain) wallet.
3. In other words, the possessor of the key to the wallet owns the contents of the wallet.
4. It appears to me they are selling (or giving away) a “Non Fungible Token” which will be used as a key to enter the new 8chan.
PLEASE CORRECT ME, my Fellow FReeQ Brothers and Sisters, if I am wrong! (Totally new to this, but I do have a wallet with some Solana coins in it!)
There’s someone else.
Regarding stopping lawsuits against Trump this was posted on X by Dan Huff formerly in Trump WH during 1st term.
“Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(c), judges can issue injunctions “ONLY IF” the suing party posts a bond to cover potential damages if they’re wrong. This rule is hardly use it.
The government has expert economists who can easily price out the cost of policies like birthright citizenship or wasteful spending. Price injunction bonds fairly, and frivolous lawsuits become a financial risk, not a free pass.
Without injunction bonds, the American people bear all the costs of activists and judges blocking the agenda they voted for. Why should activists and judges get to overrule the American people with no penalty if they’re wrong? Our system wasn’t meant to work this way.
For national injunctions, we’re talking bonds in the hundreds of millions or even billions. It will become prohibitive unless the activists have a slam dunk case.
If a judge tries to lowball the bond amount, it’s a quick and easy reversal given the unambiguous language in the federal rules.
This doesn’t block activists from court; it just stops them from using preliminary injunctions to pause government action based on arguments that might not hold up in an appellate court.”
The whole McCain family are low life. Cindy McCain admitted that they knew all about Epstein but for some lame reason did nothing.

Apparently Ukraine's Zelensky 🚽 has possibly been selling some of his military 'gifts' to the cartels 😠
If the cartels are plotting for a military confrontation with the U.S., Mexico is in deep trouble 🔥💥
The more that I learn, the happier I am that I do not own Bitcoin. What a pit! I suppose that a broker - or 'exchange'? - is the safe way to go, now that they are worth tens of thousands of dollars.
i just looked at some photos of the insides.
It looks even tighter.
My memory is faded, but I’m guessing the tour had to have been taken sometime before 1958.
I’d have to ask my uncle about some stuff memory-wise.
Depth charged ? I can’t even imagine having that duty much less volunteering for it.
It quickly goes over my head. 🤷♂️
***I do have a wallet with some Solana coins in it!***
😂 I have a wallet with some moths in it 👈 💸💸💸
I see Solana currently listed at $192.67 - slightly in the 'red' - whatever that means. I hope you are doing well with that.
At the press conference today, Caroline talked about a couple folks released and on their way home.
