And this is without the full reckoning of the commercial real estate bonds facing facts!

This is an excellent video, if I must say so myself. Excellent job, guys. I recommend everyone give it a view if you want to really know what's going on in the blockchain and crypto space. Reggie Middleton: Satoshi 2.0 - Veritaseum $VERI

Stereotypical "David v Goliath" story where $20 billion patent pirate behemoths battle poor, righteous entrepreneurs and inventors. Well, this time, it may turn out a little differently. Maybe those biblical tomes may have some insight. Read carefully:

Wow! Look! Letters of Credit and Trade Finance on the Blockchain! What a Novel Idea! You know... It's really too bad nobody thought of this a decade ago, and patented it!

One thing about me is any arena I enter in life I always pay homage to those who came before me. So I just want to give a quick shoutout to the folks (in no particular order) who gave me the “Infinity Stones” in this crypto space: - @Breedlove22 - @ReggieMiddleton -…

Does this mean #ChaseBank will reject #FedNow payments, which use asymmetric key pairs, a consensus algorithm, and a distributed network, as well as a high probability of relying on already patented tech? Will they discontinue use of #JPMCoin, which likely uses patented tech?

The question should be put to the SEC publicly and through the Court, what entity does the SEC recommend distribute the assets of Celsius, and how are they qualified?

War, Peace, and Currencies as a Proxy for Energy

Thanks to all the well wishers.

I've got even more outrageous stories than this. The US regulatory environment is a downright embarrassment, yet many are going to look in amazement when foreign jurisdictions truly threaten to usurp the US hegemony over global finance.

Chair Gensler: The crypto space is full of hucksters and non-compliance. Q: Would anything a Court says change your mind? Gensler: Well, no, not really. You can't make this stuff up.

Global banks are starting to launch tokenized asset and cash management services. This should really be fun! The SEC and other regulators have effectively cleared the competitive playing field for these behemoths, but methinks competition may rear its gorgeous head elsewhere

Many seem to miss the side of China in the geopolitical and global macroeconomic race...

Because the Fed is driving rates up. Almost every major economy boosted spending to pay for COVID. The US is no exception, save the printer the global reserve currency, which truly does set it apart, no?

LBRY has filed a Notice of Appeal against the SEC.

This should be interesting. Remember what happened back in 2009 when Mark to Market accounting rules on MBS were lifted? Uh Oh!

Don't be fooled by spiking equity prices. From a fundamental and macro perspective, GOAT blood, crimson red signs are flashing a ridiculously obvious problem in Chinese property markets. .gov can't successfully centrally plan markets. They can only manipulate short-term prices

As I've warned many about the unliklihood of BRICs successfully using their own currencies to supplant $USD in global trade, an extant substitute simply does not (currently) exist. Look at how much more expensive oil/chips/food is when paying yuan for USD-prices goods. Got yuan?

I’m fully aware of his patent. However, he is legally not permitted to have anything to do with crypto the moment he signed the consent form. I figured you hadn’t known since you tagged him on something he cannot be publicly discussing.

Ok. I'll admit. I laughed a little...

And... how is this different from any other election year in the US? Partisanship has gotten more stark, but it's not as if this was something new?

JPMorgan Wins Ruling That Leveraged Loans Are Not Securities JPMorgan Wins Ruling That Leveraged Loans Are Not Securities

Is anybody actually surprised? I'm shocked it took this long for him to have an "accident".

This is interesting, for I believe that both $COIN and @circle were sued for allegedly infringing the same #DeFi Patent.

This will likely be necessary to facilitate payments without tripping KYC/AML

Fintech in the Front, DeFi in the Back—Crypto's Quiet Revolution Is Underway - and we all know who invented and patented #DeFi, right?

This guy has no idea what he's doing. If he closes the central bank while running a deficit, the only way to prevent a default is to boost economic output, which the country obviously has a problem accomplishing. Dollars zing the economy allows the US to export deflation - bad!

John should invite diverse, educated opinions to discuss the taboos: * #CBDCs are likely already patented * #FedNow currently fulfills nearly every function of a CBDC except for a modicum of end user sovereignty, which CBs don't want in the 1st place * #FedNow is likely patented

This is very true, yet many insist on making standard, traditional political machine operations a charged partisan affair. Clayton (think @Veritaseuminc , @coinbase , @gemini , @binance , all the #ETF denials, @LBRYcom etc) was much more aggressive than Gensler while refusing guidance. Labeling to pick sides may be easier, but it muddies the waters and lessens the ability to truly see what is occurring, hence prevents one from making optimal decisions.

My bet: Judge Torres denies the request. She studiously avoided new law. She found the token is not the security, accepted the SEC’s characterisation of the transaction “buckets” to be analysed, and simply applied Howey and its progeny to the SEC’s chosen buckets. SEC failed…

Watch "Attention Wall Street! Contrary to What You've Been Told, Crypto is Tech, Not Securities!" on YouTube

Just a reminder for those that think that technology is actually a separate industry... We are all in the technology business, and what becomes popular with the masses is rarely something new. For instance, #AI is roughly 67 years old, even older than me!

I want the individual who initially commissioned the #Hex Forensic Report to reach out to me. No, the report wasn't cheap, but no one can argue that you didn't get your money's worth. The last price quote I've seen was $0.005794 USD, or roughly 1/2 of a penny.

I think we all know what the attempt was...

I love to learn. This high school junior is teaching me!

What happens to real eastate when you mix tightened bank capital rules, negative real wage growth (ADP, says 2023 wage growth will still be higher than pre-pandemic norms of around 3% & inflation stays 1%-2% higher than pay increases) and rapidly rising interest rates? Bullish!!!

Haha why wouldn’t you support @ReggieMiddleton and his IP (you’ve been using) if you’re so pro-innovation? It’s clear Reggie has a valid claim and yet you’ll only support aspects which enrich and protect your own interests. Pay the 350 and let Reggie keep trailblazing 🔥

There's going to be a lot of this in the Fintech and DLT space in the coming years... Google owes $338.7 million in Chromecast patent case, US jury says

Now, this is a surprise!

But... FedNow relies on assymetric key pairs, distributed ledgers and consensus algos. Anybody that sound familair?

Didn't read terms of the new instruments (why bother?). Just sit back & think about this prima facie. Co. can't pay debt, issues new debt at >interest evpense denominated in debt it couldn't pay before, to be funded by issuing more devalued common. IIO: Initial Idiot Offering

This is why I simply don't take drugs... "any" drugs, ither than expectorant and/or cough suppressant when I catch the flu, which is about every 5 to 10 years. Even then, I'm suspect... Drugs are peddled to layperson much too freely in the US, in that chase for profit ...

You had better explain that to the @federalreserve and their #FedNow service

Tesla sues supercapacitor company over patent infringement, despite open patent pledge

The problem with this reasoning is that it pre-supposes that the tokens were securities in the first place, falling right in line with SEC faux argument. Listen, these assets don't have requisite FDA disclosures to warn retail buyers either, but they're NOT medical devices, so...

One of the contrariant indicators that I used in 2007. It's pretty reliable! US Homeowners Are Tapping $9 Trillion in Real Estate Wealth US Homeowners Are Tapping $9 Trillion in Real Estate Wealth

Boom

From what I understand, all the SEC won was its summary judgment motion regarding @Ripple sales to institutional investors. #XRP itself is NOT a security, which may really weaken SEC case against exchanges and give @dao_veri reason to follow-up on thier no-action letter efforts.
