But it's not.Investing in renewables and nuclear energy should be the world's absolute #1 priority right now.
Crypto is doing it's bit to raise the boats. Literally.I'm not going to derail the thread talking about the relative merits of bitcoin, but this zero-sum attitude is the same held by those eco-terrorists that attacked Giga Berlin last week.
Crypto, AI, and EVs are all disruptive revolutions which have the ability to massively increase the quality of life for billions of people around the world. However, crypto, AI, and EVs all require incredible amounts of electricity. It is in everyone's interest to massively, massively build out our energy infrastructure to support these transformative technologies. The massive inflows of capital into crypto will help incentivize the buildout of our energy infrastructure.
Investing in renewables and nuclear energy should be the world's absolute #1 priority right now. Rising tides float all boats. This is not the time to be small-minded.
But it's not.
So the key is…. Let’s speed up the pollution generation with crypto so that we choke even faster and need to offset it with renewables?
Seems like an odd plan. But it will probably play out that way. Humans rarely do big things unless it’s out of sheer necessity. I’ll stick with TSLA.
Yes, it has to happen. But right now, few are acting that way. If the "when and how" is left up to the market, it won't happen fast enough. Physics doesn't care about the free market.Climate change resolution, societally, is pertinent and has to happen. As an investment, I think the "has to happen" part is more important to de-risking the investment and the "pertinent" part is less attributed to Tesla.
For example, mass adoption of EVs and Clean Energy infrastructure is agreed upon as "has to happen", so its a lucrative investment. Now, when that actually happens and how is up to the market and the competitors within it. Lots of pathways on how to achieve this goal in terms of when. The best products/services are still moated well around Tesla for EV and Clean Energy over the long-term.
So, if I'm to guess...then I think Tesla is going to be worth a lot over a long enough time horizon. In the short-term, who knows?

So, if we are to fix the problem it will be up to governments, not the market.
As I said a few days ago, I do expect to reach a point where governments finally realize how badly they procrastinated. It will be too late to avoid monumental damage, but at that point they will be willing to pay companies like Tesla anything they ask for.
You’ve put a different tire on. What did you get (mileage) in the ATs?You're going to love the Cybertruck! I love mine. Also, nice range, near 360 miles per charge, just waiting for the locking diffs. Oh yeah, and I hate steering myself.View attachment 1026828View attachment 1026829View attachment 1026830

That's the factory rubber. They're kind of a hybrid AT really.You’ve put a different tire on. What did you get (mileage) in the ATs?
That appears to be true right now. But when the incentive is high enough, they won't care about Elon's politics.I bet you not as many want to give Elon Musk more money...even if the end goal is Mars and a sustainable Earth for the human population.
Early Cybertruck delivery for verified long-term TSLA shareholders!If you’re an eligible long-term TSLA holder and you made a Cybertruck reservation prior to March 1st 2024, you can get your Foundation Series Cybertruck early
Crypto has only benefited people because they bought into it or mined it at a lower price. If it was currently worth a penny per BTC, no one would bother with it. Nothing else beneficial is PRODUCED from it. It’s “worth” a lot because many are just chasing it to get rich. No other reason.
This seems like a demand lever, right? I wonder if pricing has caused some not to configure.
Likely the pricing of $TSLA rather than the CT.This seems like a demand lever, right? I wonder if pricing has caused some not to configure.
WAY OT (somewhat. but quite appropriate to BTC)If bitcoin was going nowhere, it would have arrived there already.
If enough people believe something is valuable and it’s rare enough, it becomes valuable. Nothing beneficial from it is needed. The world is full of things whose perceived value far exceeds their utility.

Yes there are other items like that. Never said anything about BTC being the only non-beneficial item out there. It’s just on the pile with the rest of the non-beneficial items.If bitcoin was going nowhere, it would have arrived there already.

I think you're right. That's certainly the case for us. I waited to reserve, expecting to buy one in 2025 or 2026.Likely the pricing of $TSLA rather than the CT.
Yeah, it's messed up because a person can have multiple accounts.The requirements are steep.
First you need to own at least 500 shares
You also need to have not sold more than 50% of your shares since Feb 28 2021.
So you can have 50k shares but sold 30k shares leaving you 20k shares left and deemed ineligible. This is more of a loyalty test if anything.
