How valid of a retirement strategy is it to get a job at Kraken in order to sue them for millions a week later when someone calls you a racial slur?

well, see, they'd pay out in coins so it's millions of nothing if you're not quick enough

who am i kidding, they'd slur in the interview and there'd be a case for discriminatory hiring practices

since success would require Kraken still being a successful and ongoing business concern a few years down the road, it's basically a long-crypto retirement strategy, so... what could go wrong

i'm immune to covid only in the sense that i've had most of the major variants so far. as soon as there's another crazy rear end mutation (there goes one now!) that catches on big i'm hosed again

also i think it was divabot(?) but someone had a pretty good analysis of the banking poo poo behind the scenes. there's only one actual bank in the US most of these crypto exchanges are using and they have their own internal protocol for swapping "assets" between each other. sounds extremely decentralized to me

Silvergate, to be precise. They even have a site that crypto exchanges can log into to send each other money.

A polite little mouse!
I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said — Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. ... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
FORTUNE FAVORS THE BR—
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

look if you were engaging in this debate from a rational well-informed perspective you would clearly be able to tell i'm right since it's just pure cold hard logic, therefore disagreeing with me means you're stupid and arguing in bad faith. this is probably just due to all the ovaries and/or melanin in your body clouding your judgement. we're a tolerant company so don't worry, we won't fire you for your handicap

i had trouble with this one at first. i think you've got to imagine you're like q-anon level of conservative dipshit.

i think first tweet is saying that they research potential retreat locations, and if the location can't be used because they require vaccinations for travel/stays or tests for unvaccinated people or whatever then they look somewhere else for a more laissez-faire covid policy.

the second i think is saying that he hates vaccinated people and probably thinks they're shedding vaccine or similar bullshit. but he's such an open-minded and inclusionary guy that he'll allow vaccinated people in on a don't-ask-don't-tell policy and treat them with the respect that he would show his fellow unvaccinated colleagues.

Tether is aware of rumours being spread that its commercial paper portfolio is 85% backed by Chinese or Asian commercial papers and being traded at a 30% discount. These rumours are completely false and likely spread to induce further panic in order to generate additional profits from an already stressed market.
