For the record, I've been consistently making 1 sat/byte #Bitcoin transactions for the past months at least once every week or two. Sure they might take a few hours, but on-chain transaction shouldn't be for anything where fast settlement is needed anyway.
I mean fast as in hour-fast. #Lightning -like day-fast is different.

> Binyamin #Netanyahu, #Israel’s prime minister, and his allies failed to win a majority in the country’s legislature after the second #election this year. With 92% of votes counted, Mr Netanyahu’s Likud party looked set to take 32 seats. Its right-wing and ultra-Orthodox allies were on course for another 24, leaving him short of the 61 required for a majority.

Bitcoin's market cap is now ~2% of gold's market cap. I think it's fair to project growth to 20% in next 5-10 years.

If you believe in hard money, in tech, and in the future purchasing power of millennials, imo bitcoin is the perfect complement to an existing gold position.

Bitcoin doesn't arbitrarily block your transactions just because you are in the "wrong" country.
