Time for a BIG thread and for me to return to where i made my bones: #Covid19.
This time with a prediction that will end up hurting A Lot:
#Europe will stay in lockdown until March/April 2021. If it doesn't, the virus overwhelms hospitals and forces a lockdown anyway.
1/x (50)
First, some background, as i know many of you are new to the channel (Welcome!!) and to show i'm not "just some guy on twitter".
While you probably found me because of #silver or #Tether, I made my bones correctly predicting #Covid19 would turn pandemic.
Around January 11th 2/x
Before the Virus, i was trying to become an inventor. On the 7th of January, me and my Russian friend had just ended up with a quote of about 15k to build an app i designed - but we were broke.
The plan became for me to sell a small invention to raise capital for an alpha. 3/x
#Tether's pumping up #bitcoin due to it being perfect for the scam, but they can't put all their eggs into one basket. They've bought some Alt Coins too, so those will follow the same pattern as Bitcoin.
So, the same pattern that reveals the #bitcoin scam; A Parabolic curve up combined with a continual Reduction in Trading Volume as measured in Trades; Also reveal which other coins are affected by the same scam.
Lined up side to side by Unaffected #Crypto; the pattern is obvious
1. You missed #Tether. 2. Scarcity alone isn't enough. Only Utility is. BTC's only utility is Transactional capability - better alternatives exist already. 3. It isn't. Lightning network is a pipedream due to vested interests otherwise it'd be implemented; It's old already.
4. The dumbass energy argument again. Turn off 99% of BTC miners. Artificial difficulty adjusts down, just like it can adjust up. You retain the same transactional capability with 1% of the energy. Shut down 99% of all gold mines watch the price soar. Where's the energy?

Volatility = how far a price can move within a given timeframe. The shorter the timeframe + the bigger the move, the "higher" the volatility.
I think (early data, not sure) they're closing the shorts in preparation for the Failure of Comex in December; And they're using silver to run cover for gold 🚨
November 10th data is quite interesting you see. We're in the midst of rollover, so we would expect to see contracts disappear. Since both #gold and #silver roll over, both should reduce OI.
This certainly happens, especially on the 9th with such a big drop on the vaccine news.
But on the 10th, price went sideways the entire day. So does that mean no contracts where lost?
No. In fact, on the Prelim report, 8,224 (8750 on final) contracts worth 822,400 ounces of #Gold where closed. But #Silver went up with 1,778 (1620 final) contracts. 8,9Moz of metal.
Oh and no I'm not gonna get a fucking subscription to 50 streaming services either.
Not because I'm not willing to pay but because I'm a freaking economist!
You think i didn't notice the whole tech world moving to sub models?!
Easier to jack up the price during inflation.
Recurring subscription costs can be raised while ad revenue craters during hyperinflation (if you think ad budgets are the first to go now WHOO BOY wait till 2023).
And if people don't own their stuff, the need to continue to pay/rent stays there with higher prices.
