2/ ...seriously, watch who moves into #Wyoming bc its 100% reserve rqmt & investor-friendly TOS rqmts will separate proverbial "men from the boys." Most #crypto custodians, exchanges, lenders, etc. are too far gone & couldn't comply even if they wanted to @nic_carter @TraceMayer

Wtf?? Apparently you are not allowed to do what you want with your bitcoin once you own the keys. Fortunately that's not how Bitcoin works, but the level of chain analysis here is alarming. What is a correct response? @MartyBent @matt_odell @vandrewattycpa

In the depths of down-market cycle with panic sell risk, the Buyers of last resort kick-start the recovery by buying with with conviction. The Hodlers of last resort, are also defenders in arms as their conviction helps take Bitcoin off the market and to defend new price floors.

#ProofOfKeys 2018 saved me from losing funds in Cryptopia. I got about 70% of my coin off before they went down. Proof of Keys 2019 saved me from losing funds at GateHub, I had just taken my coins off and then they got breached and a friend lost it all. [Jan 3 🔑] clan 4 lyfe

Thanks to @TraceMayer, Jan 3rd is also #ProofOfKeys day. For miners, financial sovereignty is more than just owning your keys. It's #ProofOfHashRate too. If a pool doesn't publish hash rate proofs, its miners can't know if they are receiving fair payouts. Don't trust, verify!

It's great to see an exchange actively supporting proof of keys. Proof of keys is an opportunity for solvent exchanges to distinguish themselves from insolvent exchanges.

Keep a close eye on #repo fails—they’re creeping back up again. Fails (failures to deliver collateral on time) are a source of big, hidden leverage in the financial system 🧐
In the past few weeks, repo fails have ticked back up again though not yet suggesting the next fails swarm (just a hint). In addition, dealers are now really hoarding T-bills. Over the last several weeks, they've increased their net position to the second most in seven years.

Today I've recorded a @BitcoinMagazine interview with THE Babe Ruth of BTC shills himself, @TraceMayer. He talked about the #ProofOfKeys event & how you should prepare for it, why CoinJoins are a bad idea, and why an airdrop for Jan/3➞₿🔑 participants might be beneficial.
