Dear @TuvaluGov, it was just announced that you will embark upon a project to become the world's first paperless society using Bitcoin Satoshi Vision (BSV).

I am sure you have spoken to Mr @CalvinAyre about this project, I have attached a picture to jog your memory.

Cont...
Perhaps you do not know too much about Mr Ayre or his colleagues, I have attached some links for you.

Here is a dump of information about Mr Craig Wright, the Chief Scientist at nChain.

You may not be tracking the price of BitcoinSV v the real Bitcoin, this might help.

If you don't understand the price chart:
- Green lines = good
- Red lines = bad
BitcoinSV is not the Bitcoin you keep hearing about in the news. It is a deeply flawed technology which would be HIGHLY risky for any country to become a cashless society on.

I would happily pay the costs for any Bitcoin expert to fly out to Tuvalu to consult you on this.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

1/ Feels like a good time to tell the story of how I went from broke to a millionaire to broke again in 2017/18 again...

Yesterday was brutal for some people...

Losing life-changing money sucks, losing any money sucks...you can chase the market or you can change your strategy.
2/ The original thread is gone but you can read it here.

buzzchronicles.com/b/life/1042/

tl;dr
- Traded $32k to $1.2m
- Thought I was a genius
- Made poor investments
- Didn't conserve capital
- Peaked at 150 BTC
- Lost nearly all of it

2 weeks from losing my house + no income. Oops.
3/ I am going to assume you are in it for the money rather than the tech. Yeah, you might Tweet about the amazing blockchaining of cross-border payments and oracles yadda yadda...really, you are in it to make money.

If you are really in it for the tech, go and build something.

1/ Big section in Paul Tudor Jone's Q3 investment letter regarding #bitcoin...

"In listing all the instruments that might respond to the Great Monetary Inflation, the may investor letter postulated that one day #Bitcoin might become the fastest horse in the race."
2/ "This cryptocurrency is a beneficiary for a variety of reasons. In essence, #Bitcoin shares many of the requisite characteristics historical stores of value such as fiat currency, gold, real estate, art and others."
3/ "Those characteristics include the protection of purchasing power, trustworthiness, liquidity and portability...and so far #bitcoin has comfortably taken the lead, arguably helped by its small initial market cap."

1/ Another 24 hours of WTF...

Trump administration made available their 234 pages of sworn affidavits, which appear to be 234 pages of nothing burgers.

2/ In Pennsylvania, the nature of these lawsuits which are, at present, all being lost, are becoming clear.

3/ Of the 12 lawsuits filed alleging ballot fraud, all 12 have been rejected.

1/ Some things to keep an eye on with the Trump administration.

I think it is widely agreed that Trump should proceed with his lawsuits so Biden can legitimately be confirmed as the winner.
2/ If you want to see a breakdown of the lawsuits you can do so here. Though note this is a moving beast and some may now be out of date.

3/ Trump has fired Defence Secretary Mark Esper.

Thread looking at the current lawsuits from @realDonaldTrump 👇👇👇

*Pennsylvania

1/ PA supreme court decision to allow mail-in ballots 3 days after election day i.e. mail-in ballots received by Friday 6th Nov can be counted. Trump campaign asking US Supreme Court to intervene.
2/ The Supreme Court twice declined to overrule deadline, but several conservative justices indicated that they might be willing to revisit the case.

Late mail-in ballots are currently being segregated from other ballots pending the legal challenge.
3/ However, a number of conservative surrogates are questioning if this is happening.

PA secretary of state stated on Nov 4th Wednesday that there are only “hundreds” of such votes.

The fall in the quality of real investigative journalism has been harmed by the economics of production + the competition being rewarded for low-quality partisan baiting.

We're in a post-truth era.

Cont...
There is a high reward for spreading conspiracy on Twitter, particularly with right-wing voters.

There is a low time investment to credibility reward for fact-checking accusations:
- Facts spun
- Sources not trusted
- Ability to keep up with the speed of information
Trust has been eroded with right-wing voters due to the left bias of MSM and board control of social media giants.

Trump has perpetuated the problem with his FakeNews campaign which is baked in both truths and falsities. Confusion reigns and voters retreat to echo chambers.
