"For those of you in the United States, I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving. I
especially hope you didn’t have to endure any guests who had read the various
“how to talk to your family about crypto this Thanksgiving” explainers from
crypto media outlets, most of which sounded like some form of multi-level
marketing indoctrination manual, with bullet points like “ETFs have made crypto
investing simpler and safer” and “Crypto could flourish further under Trump”.
Could you pass the gravy, grandpa, while I tell you about why Elon Musk’s
brilliant scheme to optimize the government is named after a shiba inu-themed
memecoin?
(Definitely not just a convenient inroad for Musk as shadow vice president to
procure even more lucrative federal contracts, stymy the many ongoing lawsuits
against his companies, and pare back those pesky regulations.)
Bitcoin has surpassed the $100,000 mark, a highly anticipated milestone among
bitcoiners. After surging $90,000 post-election, it was merely a question of
how soon the token would hit that elusive number. The purchase of the
president-elect and many Congresspeople, while expensive, has already produced
returns — crypto billionaires have recouped that spending and then some."
