While we're in the bull market territory ... **#PoweredByMonolith** Since some of you may be entering a bull market for probably the first time, I wanted to bring up this tweet from Pomp and re-iterate the risks associated with the crypto market. https://twitter.com/APompliano/status/1267604444650315776?s=20 This applies to BTC/BCH/BSV or whatever coin you believe in. Hope you enjoy this ride but also don't get too carried away if we end up seeing a 2017 like bull market!

Joe Rogan uses the Brave Browser!!! **#PoweredByMonolith** This is huge news coming out in the most unexpected way. Joe Rogan had a podcast with musician Reggie Watts yesterday on his show The Joe Rogan Experience and they both were talking tech and privacy and when Reggie mentioned that he uses the Brave browser for privacy, Joe Rogan admitted that he uses it too! Here is a clip from when they both discuss about this. https://lbry.tv/JoeRoganBraveBrowser:7 This is HUGE news…

Reddit's Alexis to be replaced by a black candidate Reddit's co-founder Alexis Ohanian announced today that he will be stepping down from the Reddit's board of directors and asked the board to replace him with a suitable black candidate. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/05/tech/alexis-ohanian-reddit/index.html This is unprecedented and the right thing on so many levels. There is a HUGE diversity problem in the tech world which is generally dominated by White and Asian males and…

Black Lives Matter protests I was just out and about today driving around to pick up some groceries and I found a huge protest going on today which was peaceful. This happened the evening of June 7, 2020 in Reston, VA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04Pc7moMiXM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN4lJ8aXvQ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuAUu038y6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXRStCXut1E People were honking their cars in support of the movement and sure enough I did too.…

Starbucks to close 400 stores! This is HUGE news coming in as the aftermath of the pandemic. Starbucks has announced that it will close about 400 stores in North America with 200 of them in Canada. This is a perfect example of how companies are shifting their strategy to align to the new world order created by the Corona Virus pandemic. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/10/business/starbucks-closing-400-stores/index.html Starbucks has said that they are now strategizing to do more…

I actually forgot what the rule is now but can we only post to the communities we are added to and are subscribed to? I used to be able to post to any community before if I can recall correctly.

@potta

Can I mute communities and/or users? So although with the recent developments of the points system etc, it was an overall positive change and I believe it's very good for the ecosystem because a lot more people will be onboarded onto the platform and more people get exposure to Bitcoin Cash but I am facing an issue where I go onto the read.cash home page and 95% of the stuff that's posted is either not relevant to me or I don't understand the language sometimes to even read…

Separation of notifications. Hey there, read.cash team. I have noticed something which would personally help me and i'm sure a lot of people like me who are moderators of some communities so this is more of a feature request and if other people are interested in this as well maybe they can leave a comment in support but here is what I am thinking. Recently since I opted in to become a moderator of several communities, my notification queue has grown exponentially as…

Hi there! I am trying to get the sponsorships to show on my posts. I am not able to. I had a couple of questions. 1> Can I do it in such a way that the sponsorship appears for all my posts and not just for one. 2> I tried to add a [sponsor] tag in my posts and nothing shows up. I am trying to search for articles which explain how to do it but I wasn't successful in finding one so it would help if you can clarify this for me. Also, would this be monthly? When do the…

JP Morgan says Bitcoin has staying power **#PoweredByMonolith** In an incredible turn of events and possibly karma biting JP Morgan back, they had recently issued a statement saying that Bitcoin surviving the crash has shown that it has staying power. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-12/jpmorgan-says-bitcoin-crash-survival-shows-it-has-staying-power They do continue to believe (and I should say fairly) that Bitcoin is mostly a speculative asset because that is…

Here is the news article which goes over this https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/21/entertainment/black-sabbath-black-lives-matter-trnd/index.html They have designed their…

Incredible cover of Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss https://youtu.be/k5SpXvRbJPc I am a HUGE metal fan and also a HUGE fan of the band Slayer. I have seen them live a couple of times and their energy on stage is incredible even when they had become old. I have seen a lot of covers of this song played. Infact, in my younger years I had a band which played this cover as well and I can tell you with utmost certainty that this is THE most incredible cover of the song ever played!…
