Please take a moment to consider the importance of the Bitcoin Development Fund being run by @HRF and @gladstein, who has become the moral center of the #Bitcoin universe.

Bitcoin is one of the most powerful tools for the protection human rights in this digital age. All money is becoming digital, it's just a question of which digital money will dominate. Will it be a state-controlled, privacy-invading fiat, or Bitcoin?
We must not take Bitcoin for granted. The wolf is always at the door. Bitcoin needs continuous improvement in scalability, privacy, security, and usability to reach mass adoption. If the only sponsors of dev work are large corporations, we will be doing ourselves a disservice.

After reading @FriskyFoxDK's latest announcement in the DFK Discord I still believe the optimal strategy for capital allocators is to participate in the gardens, bank, and questing. Depending on stack size and liquidity I recommend gardens -> bank -> heroes in that order.
If you might need your capital right away, I would just start with the bank because there's no penalty on withdrawing whenever you want. If you don't mind being allocated for a month or more, the gardens are a great place to collect rewards.
If you're slightly more well capitalized and thinking long-term, heroes are the next logical step to juice your rewards and they actually provide a bit of a hedge against price fluctuations (jewel up, hero price in jewel down and vice verse).

It's been far too long since I've published anything to Medium. I hope you guys feel like it's been worth the wait. TLDR thread below. @DefiKingdoms

There is a game that's relatively unknown right now called DeFi Kingdoms. I have been doing a deep-dive on this project over the last month and I have found it to be massively compelling for the following reasons.

1. It's properly positioned for the Metaverse mega-trend.
2. The total addressable market is huge, and this project is growing very quickly. I expect this to continue due to the fact that the team behind the game are executing on a very bold vision and hitting it out of the park.
3. The community is strong and growing fast

The price of solar power has fallen by 92% in the last decade.

The amount of solar power being produced has increased by 22x during that same time period.

The SunShot2030 project has a goal of producing solar at the utility level for $0.03/kWh, which seems to be on track.

Ok, here we go. It's time for another mega-thread on #Bitcoin, energy consumption, and net value for society. First of all, realize that all judgements of this sort come down to values. What do you value? What's important to you? Secondly, what does the data show? 🧵👇
I can tell you what I value. I care about human rights and global inequity. Bitcoin is one of the most potent technologies we've ever seen for protecting human rights. @gladstein

I care about economic development. And as @danheld has pointed out, all economic development requires electricity.

The amount of #Bitcoin on exchanges has fallen dramatically this year.

At the same time M2 is growing like a weed.

Bitcoin miners and their mining pools (1 hop and 0 hop essentially) still have a lot of supply. But as you can see, the long-term trend is downward for their stockpile.
