In an email to Barron’s the head of the SIPC cast doubt on
the idea that it would insure checking or savings accounts.
“SIPC protects cash that is deposited with a brokerage firm
for one limited purpose...the purpose of purchasing
securities,” wrote Stephen P. Harbeck, the president and CEO
of SIPC. “Cash deposited for other reasons would not be
protected.”

i love them.
They could easily take half the cars off the road and transform downtown.
They're more convenient and a fraction of the cost of an uber, and they're fun to ride.
People should not be riding them on the sidewalks, i'm expecting that to change quickly.

No one seems to be talking about how venture investors have transformed into cryptocurrency hedge funds over the past year.
The conversations you see from VCs has similarly changed - instead of talking about teams building enterprise value, you hear something that sounds more like speculative bubble FOMO language.
Maybe i'm wrong, feels ominous.

Tren Griffin is a big proponent of Charlie Munger’s use of mental modals.
This post has a good list of models:

Hashing does not materially impact the global price of electricity.
Also, hardware is a fixed cost, fixed costs don't affect the price at which miners would stop mining.
