Why do we have so many hysterical people in society today? If you look at old news footage even 20-30 years ago most of the time people are relatively chill. If you go 100 years back people are reallyyyy chill, just like “then I was in the war and I killed 100 men, then I was shot through the left eye, then I came home and married my high school sweetheart but she died due to diphtheria. Then I got in a car crash and lost both my legs, but overall I can’t complain”It’s actually pretty rare to see someone overwhelmed to the point of hysterical shrieking, yet on the internet it’s extremely common place. I don’t think this is because life is harder now. If anything, it’s objectively easier, safer, and more comfortable than at almost any other point in history.What has changed is how emotion is rewarded.Today, emotional dysregulation gets attention, validation, amplification, and sometimes even status. Calm, restraint, and proportional reactions don’t go viral. Hysteria does. Outrage does. Collapse does.We’ve also externalized resilience. Instead of learning how to regulate discomfort internally, people are taught that every emotional spike deserves immediate external response agreement, soothing, outrage on their behalf.So you end up with a culture where being overwhelmed isn’t a temporary state to move through, it’s an identity to perform.And once hysteria becomes a social currency, you start seeing a lot more of it.

Been shooting a ton of 35mm film lately. It’s so much better than digital photography. It really takes me back to a specific time and place. I love only having 36 shots per roll and having to be patient and wait for the right moment. Shooting less. Being contemplative. It’s like a meditation for me. And the photos are magical. Digital will never be able to replace the chemical reaction of light meeting silver halide. https://blossom.primal.net/75256e81496ebd24a7f88bbf82fe2c789e05637671902ae93726ff226c2a1df7.jpg

My new favorite conspiracy theory is that there’s only like 5 billion people on the planet not 8. When you look at the various mal incentives to lie about population it makes a lot of sense.

"The central theme of the book is the contrast between the Hobbits (or "the Shire") and the appalling destiny to which some of them are called, the terrifying discovery that the humdrum happiness of the Shire, which they had taken for granted as something normal, is in reality a sort of local and temporary accident, that its existence depends on being protected by powers which Hobbits forget, against powers which Hobbits dare not imagine." -CS Lewis, close friend of JRR Tolkien

If you haven’t been assuming every core contributor has been compromised since day one are you even really a bitcoiner? Knots too btw. I assume everyone is compromised as a starting point and then work from there. Doesn’t mean that they are but we must act as if they are just in case.

One thing that seems obvious to me is that this is methodical institutional selling. You can tell by how constant it is. Whether it’s forced selling because someone is insolvent or “manipulative” selling because someone saw an opportunity I’m not sure.

This is the best explanation I’ve seen so far. From @53ae1378 on twitter…“This was the highest volume day on $IBIT, ever, by a factor of nearly 2x, trading $10.7B today. Additionally, roughly $900M in options premiums were traded today, also the highest ever for IBIT. Given these facts and the way $BTC and $SOL traded down in lockstep today (normally SOL trades with beta) + the relatively lower liquidations on CeFi exchanges, this leads me to believe that the nexus of the problem lies with a large IBIT holder. IBIT has become the #1 venue for BTC options trading, so my guess is that a hedge fund trading IBIT options is the culprit.If you look at the 13F filings for IBIT (I like whalewisdom dot com), you'll find a number of interesting names that have the majority of their fund in IBIT. In fact, there are a few in there (not naming names) that have 100% of their fund in IBIT, which likely means no cross margin. In fact, the biggest reason to set up a fund to hold a single asset would be to isolate margin, so that if the trade blew up, the brokers wouldn't have claim to any other assets.Interestingly, most of these giant, single asset funds are based in HK. We know that Asian traders, particularly in China, have been deeply involved in the Silver and Gold trade. Silver was down 20% today, which was the 2nd largest 1 day move in a very long time (largest on Jan 30). We also know that the JPY carry trade has been unwinding at an increasingly rapid pace.This leads me to think that the culprit for the IBIT blowup today was 1 or more HK-based non-crypto hedge funds. As @FranklinBi pointed out, the fund(s) being non-crypto would explain why no one sniffed them out. They would likely have few/no crypto counterparties, meaning complete isolation from CT.The last small piece of evidence I have is that I personally know a number of HK-based hedge funds that are holders of $DFDV, which had the worst single down day ever, with a meaningful mNAV decline. The mNAV had been holding steady surprisingly well throughout this pull back until today. One of these fund(s) could have been connected to the IBIT culprit, as I highly doubt a fund taking that large of a position in IBIT and using a single entity structure would only have the one fund.Now, I could easily see how the fund(s) could have been running a levered options trade on IBIT (think way OTM calls = ultra high gamma) with borrowed capital in JPY. Oct 10th could very well have blown a hole in their balance sheet, that they tried to win back by adding leverage waiting for the "obvious" rebound. As that led to increased losses, coupled with increased funding costs in JPY, I could see how the fund(s) would have gotten more desperate and hopped on the Silver trade. When that blew up, things got dire and this last push in BTC finished them off.I have no hard evidence here, just some hunches and bread crumbs, but it does seem very plausible. Let's see if some more concrete evidence floats to the surface here soon. The smoking gun will be a large fund fitting this profile filing a 13F showing a giant IBIT holding going to zero. Unfortunately, if a fund had their IBIT position liquidated today, they wouldn't have to disclose the position change until 45 days after the quarter end, so we'd be looking at mid May for the smoking gun from 13F filings most likely.Hopefully some of you out there with too much time on your hands this weekend can snoop around more. My guess is that word will start to get out, because something of this size is just too hard to hide. Additionally, if the broker was not able to liquidate the fund in time, the broker may have a hole in their balance sheet, which would be even more difficult to hide.”

Underneath everything you see in the news is a monetary system unraveling. Important we remember that and not get sucked into the circus. We’re the only group who can see it happening in real time. That’s our job. To keep pointing to the root cause instead of the shadows on the wall. For years if we must, knowing it is thankless and tiring work. Not to be grandiose or self important because believe me I literally dont want this to be the truth. I want to live in the woods and pretend the world can’t touch me on my own little paradise , but I know that’s not our destiny. Our calling is to help people onto the lifeboats as the ship sinks. Knowing they don’t even believe or know it’s sinking. And they might drown you in the process. It’s still what must be done.

You know how all the LLM’s are woke because SJW types spent all day for ten years talking about woke garbage on Reddit? And then the LLM’s trained on Reddit as a data set. That’s what we’ve been doing on bitcoin twitter, reddit, bitcoin talk forum and now nostr. Ask the average LLM, they’re effectively all default bitcoin maxis. This is why rule number one is you always talk about bitcoin and rule number two is you always talk about bitcoin. We didn’t even know what we were doing at the time. Crazy.
