You could probably become the next trillionaire if you invented a blockchain-based instant stock certificate clearing / settlement system.
>The DTC settles transactions worth tens of trillions of dollars daily.
Imagine being offered an exclusive monopoly on that providing that service, for say, a 0.01% fee per transaction of course...

If I had $650,000 right now I could make $6,700 per month selling the 20-delta naked puts or covered calls on SPY or similar tickers. 20 contracts @ $335 each, 30 days to exp. keep a little in reserve.

Of course you could make much more selling higher delta or diversify with tickers in higher IV around earnings. With the passive no-think approach that's $80k per year minus $40k biden-tax, so around $40k for a few clicks, not bad.

>There are a lot of people going around spouting the /pmg/ slash goldbug narrative

Those people coincidentally also run gold investment funds.

It seems like the real bizness is the card authentication jews like PSA or BGS. They are charging $1k just to look at a card

Fun Fact

As of March 2020, the reserve requirement in the USA is 0%. In most other countries it has been 0% for years. A bank can make a loan with nothing in reserve.

Banks can literally create new loans with no reserves. Bank reserves are for enabling inter-bank settlements which includes converting to bank liabilities (CASH!)

I'm looking at Australia right now, because they seem to be a few months ahead of us in the real-estate timeline. Forbearance ends after December 2020, and supposedly only 16% of those that have been deferring mortgage will be able to start paying again. Banks are starting to poke at cunts to pay mortgages or to sell now. The idea is they should sell now rather than foreclose at a shittier price later. As such, many houses are being rush-sold to get a decent deal. I looked through a few listings and see some that dropped -60% in price over 1 night. Hoping a similar scenario plays out in the US soon.

Imagine if we get UBI in a FedAccount with negative interest and an upper limit of say $5000. If you try to save any of your FedCoins instead of spend them to consoom, you will stop getting UBI. Just one of the many benefits of US CBDC!

A good article about the topic, from September 2019, making me think that COVID really was a hoax for global monetary reset.

Can I have that spreadsheet?

I want to make a cap-weighted index to compare with >>18978292
Copying market-cap from excel is way easier than looking them up individually.
