At 8% yearly inflation:
After 9 years, a $1,000,000 retirement/pension, will only have $472K in purchasing power.
The real inflation rate (measured by 1990s rules) is closer to 15%. In 9 years that $1Mil becomes $213K

#Bitcoin mining accelerates renewables growth. This is the first study I’ve seen that attempts to quantify it.
Results: Current trajectory has us at 24% renewables by 2030, with Bitcoin mining this leaps to 70%.

State lawmakers want to make fraudulent rug pulls a crime in New York
@stengel In journalism, the pursuit of balance is very often a trap. (A trap that is exploited by bad actors.) Treating both sides of an argument as equal when one side is demonstrably false is not balanced—it’s wrong. Literally wrong, and morally wrong.
@woonomic They surveyed 566 people. 25% said they invested in shitcoins. The New York Times uses that to write a hit piece saying #Bitcoin fans are psychopaths.
“Good at deception and take a calculated approach to achieving goals.” From this I conclude NYT Editors are psychopaths.
@TeslaFraud
This is really bad. Musk realizing he’s about to be charged for fraud and could lose his position/the company.
Goes to the Saudis to essentially tell them to manufacture a narrative to help bail him out.
In the end, wrist slap by @SEC_Enforcement and “worth it” $TSLA $TSLAQ
What calls Elon Musk calls “free speech,” President Obama calls the “raw sewage” of disinformation. Why do you think the GOP was so excited about Musk buying Twitter?
Musk and his apologists say if consumers don’t like what he does with Twitter, they can go elsewhere. But where else would consumers go to post short messages that can reach millions of people other than Twitter?
The “free market” increasingly reflects the demands of big money.
Remember Ross Ulbricht?

How London became the dirty money capital of the world
Russian oligarchs and companies have been investing in London for two decades, encouraged by British politicians of all stripes, but critics say the ‘London laundromat’ cleans dirty money from Russia and across the globe. The FT examines why it took Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to put the issue in the spotlight and whether new sanctions and measures to tackle the problem go far enough
Comparing the GDP of US States with that of countries
Elon Musk has officially purchased Twitter that means everyone gets their old accounts back. Now the rethuglican army and bots will demand Trump and everyone else gets pardoned, and that he run again.
Outstanding investigative journalism from Chris Anderson @ChrisA0213 of the @HeraldTribune on the Trump-Rumble-Sarasota Connection. #mustread

When oligarchs talk about freedom, beware.
For Jeff Bezos, it means his freedom to set prices.
For Jamie Dimon, it means his freedom to consolidate the banking industry.
For Elon Musk, it means his freedom to set the terms of political debate.
Don’t get it confused.
