That doesn't tell you if shit is changing because of your nation's monetary policy or because of wider global macroeconomics.

I feel less secure now.

Yeah, right. These companies aren't looking at Facebook as much as they are Yelp. They want to know who the squeaky wheels are before they squeak.

It pretty much is technically a social media site. But it predated Social Media(TM), so it gets a pass.

(small number)% of users produce (large number)% of content related to (niche topic). News at 11.

"free-for-all at the border"

Tell me again how you know nothing about illegal immigration.

Almost all illegal immigrants got here by plane.

You say "tough" but when I see ICE needing the National Guard to do their job, I only see weakness, impotence, and incompetence.

The fact that they can't even come close to their target numbers does not scream "tough" to me. The fact that they go after grandmothers living in this country since the 60s demonstrates how chicken shit they are.

"There's a deep bench of Republicans that appear to have enough public support to get to be POTUS"

Like who? Most Republicans popular enough to get past the MAGAts are unelectable in the general.

The only way to value a currency is by comparing it to other currencies. Any other approach isn't assessing the value of the currency, but other things like the cost of producing goods in a de-globalizing economy.

Now, let's see if Amazon wages rise at that factory. If they don't, the entire argument against immigration has fallen apart.

Oooh. I found the crypto-Nazi!

Do I get a prize?

It's up 7% year over year. But more notably, it's up 13% in the last six months.

Not the case. At least not for short time frames like day trading. Commodities like Bitcoin (and gold) don't trade on a fundamental metric. They trade on perceived value. When the perceived value is rising to new all time highs it means sentiment is increasing. Most of the time, this means the all time high will feed into the sentiment, leading to a positive feedback loop.

More complicated analysis is required to determine where the post-ATH new top will be and when it will happen.

You don't take it away from people. You exchange goods and services.

In the typical case, you take on risk to invest in a productive product or service. Then you exchange - through intermediaries - that product or service for more money.

Do this well, and you have a $B.

"Bitcoin has no network effect. There is near zero cost for users to switch to a different coin."

The cost of switching is not relevant. It cost nothing to switch to Google+ either. Or Truth Social.

You don't seem to understand network effects very well.
