I’m thinking bitcoin will rebound in 2027, so my idea is to average into BTCI by selling cash secured puts. The 3 options dates available are July 17, Aug 17, Sept 18, so I’m thinking of aiming for $25k July, $25k Aug, and $50k Sept. 20%+ annual dividends while waiting for bitcoin to recover sounds amazing. Anyone want to poke holes in this or give advice or bear case? Anyone have predictions for how low BTCI could go if Bitcoin hits 50k, 40k, 30k? Thank you!

This may get a bit sociological, but when I’m looking at the longterm health of Meta, I wonder whether Facebook/Instagram may fall out of popularity. In discussions of Insta/FB, I see a prevailing opinion that: “they kinda suck but they’re ingrained in society forever” and I wonder whether this is actually true. Is it not entirely possible that people will increasingly recognize the negatives of posting/scrolling (thus seeing ads) and just decrease their use substantially? With increasing data that FB/Insta are not good for mental health and tend to suck valuable time, it seems like a “collective action problem” where individuals feel it would be best if everyone quit but negative consequences for early individuals quitting prior to a mass exodus. And isn’t it possible that there will eventually be a cultural zeitgeist that feels using Insta/FB is just cringe and not cool? I deactivated my accounts a few years ago while retaining Messenger (thus distant friends and family could theoretically contact me) and after a short withdrawal period I have no desire to post or scroll there again. So my question is whether Meta actually has a cultural moat for 15 more years or if it’s entirely possible that people will spend less and less time there, and what once seemed ingrained and eternal will be seen as an early 21st century fad.

I ride some blank clear purple 76mm 78a wheels that I think are just unlabeled Bigfoot Mountain Cruiser wheels. They’re my favorite wheels because they just cruise really cushy and fast. I’m super tempted to buy Pantheon Meatballs 73mm 74a wheels but it’s hard to justify $70 when my current wheels are great. Do people think the Meatballs will be a big upgrade in terms of cushy and fast? (I do zero sliding, I only want cushy and fast). Or anyone wanna sell me their old Meatballs?
