  1. Republicans are hilarious, always using everything to blame the other party. Lol conservative CERTAINLY don't care about wegers in China and definitely don't care a flying fuc* about Muslims… ?

  2. I've been searching for a good broker to trade with.
    Please ? sir how can I find one.. I'm interested now but its difficult to find good traders

  3. Hut 8's fortunes are directly tied to the price of Bitcoin. It goes up 2X-3X(% wise) that Bitcoin has gone up since at least spring 2020. By my estimates a 10X for BTC at some point in the next4 years will translate conservatively to 15X for Hut 8

  4. People please read Bitcoin standard ? and fiat standard to know why even HENRY FORD 1921 said electric energy prevents wars.

  5. You can smell the insider trading from a mile away… Why in the flying kite were these people not asked to disclose their holdings under oath before their testimony?
    Where was the Maths expert? Where was the Game Theory expert? Nowhere because this was a btc echo chamber. Saying Bitcoin miners are green energy is like saying lawn cutters promise to use renewable energy. They flucking don't because it's in their economic interest not to.

  6. Does anyone critisize the banks and companies leaving their lights on all night long , is it necessary or can they use less lights for less energy consumption?. l wondered about it for years now

  7. Trying to justify using an inefficient way to come to consensus by saying bitcoin mining creates advancement in technology we wouldn't have otherwise. Is like saying going to war is good because of the advancement in technology that follows.

  8. Nice content you’ve got here, is anyone into crypto or forex trading here? tried trading on my own once and blew up my account don’t know if anyone here have had similar experience. You can shere to me

  12. The Rodgers lady at 24:00 mark is like in southpark when they hold the intervention for Towelie and Cartman uses his time to rip on Kyle and the Jews and doesn’t mention anything remotely related to why they’re there lol wtf lady.. and I’m a Republican. Someone rein her in

  13. Bitcoin is just software and can be changed if there is a better solution and consensus. But there isn’t consensus yet about a better solution that can still keep the same security level

  14. 1:46:46 Ever been sold something because the pyramid scheme requires you to get excited and not miss out on investing? Listen to the words he is using. We need technology to solve real problems not make old scams new again.
    Professor Ari Juels speaks truth in this hearing, I hope to hear more from him.

  15. Imagine if all those computing resources were used elsewhere. Cure cancer and other diseases? Further space exploration? Tackle more efficient energy generation, transmission and storage? We have a shortage of computing resources, energy, and talent that is being diverted for greed. It is not sustainable at this rate of growth and also expect things like electric cars to replace internal combustion engines. You can't have both.
    Don't forget that you will also lose privacy once we become a cashless society, not to mention how will you pay for something when the power goes out?
    Another bonus of the hearing: you can tell who is beholden to which lobbyists by listening to the keywords being tossed around. Lots of money in crypto speculation and the discussion has been centered around efficiency without consideration for impacts to our environment and society at large. Even Mr. Brooks admitted they are part of the demand driving the shortage of chips.
    Ms Schakowsky nailed it when discussing the use of more fossil fuels to meet demand.
    Bottom line: electricity and gas will continue to go up in price for consumers, while cryptocurrencies take a larger share of those and renewable resources.

  16. ?The fact is, BTC is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now if this is right time to invest? before jumping into conclusion i think you should take a look at things first. for the past few days the price of BTC has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you cant tell if it is going bearish or bullish. while others still continue to trade without the fear of making lose, others are being patient. it all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signals. i would say trading has been going smoothly for me, i started with 2.5 BTC and i have accumulated over 13.6 BTC in just three weeks, with the trading strategy given to me by expert trader Mr Steve
