All of the examples I provided do *not* lead to a predictable outcome.

Dynamite killing workers or causing avalanche

Hammer chiseling off too much marble or causing unexpected cracks

Rocket exploding or having to abort or malfunctioning half-way to orbit

Bitcoin’s fiat price volatility is just as unpredictable, at least during Bitcoin’s price discovery phase.

As more people, corporations, banks, and countries adopt #Bitcoin, then volatility smooths out.

Every musician/band/group/DJ/singer I’ve ever danced to made it far enough along for their art to eventually make it to my ears - and move my feets

Is dynamite not a volatile way to start a tunnel?

Is hammering not a volatile way to start a sculpture?

Is ignition not a volatile way to start a rocket?


You still have the same amount of satoshi regardless of its price in $ ¥ € £


Tunnel: volatility of dynamite and machinery tearing through the mountain side

Sculpture: volatility of hammering and chiseling marble

Payload: volatility of energy release of rocket to lift off launch pad

Every tunnel, every sculpture, every rocket launch is volatile at the beginning, just like Bitcoin’s fiat price volatility via price discovery.


The price of #Bitcoin *should* be volatile, at least in the beginning in its price-discovery phase.

Carving a tunnel through a mountain? Volatile.

Chipping away at marble to create a sculpture? Volatile.

Lifting a payload into space? Volatile.

In the end, the tunnel is complete, the sculpture is finished, the payload is delivered.


Thank you!

MOAR ENERGY, NOT LESS

Energy usage has exponentially increased since this photo was taken in 2549 BCE

From manual labor to animal labor to mechanical labor to machine labor to electronics labor, it all requires exponential increases in energy production to meet exponential increases in energy usage

#Bitcoin does not use too much energy, it’s simply shining a spotlight on where MOAR energy is required to build the future. https://image.nostr.build/bc9b0862995a101892056bd56f38901c87db021e0b38dde4e08cc0b568bc187a.jpg

With 18 new #Bitcoin designs ready to go on t-shirts, it’s important to develop an efficient way to vertically-center varying artwork sizes on tees on Printful.com.

I designed a test grid in Affinity Designer, uploaded PNG file to Printful, then downloaded mockups from Printful to see what feels/looks good.

Now, in Affinity Designer, I know I can vertically-center each piece of artwork around the 4-1/2 inch grid mark. And because the overall PNG artwork file will always measure 12 inches x 16 inches - matching Printful’s layout - the vertically-centered artwork will always show up in the correct spot on t-shirts. https://image.nostr.build/cfa39c9152baeeaa6f2166f489b28b953a9541c8d6cd107904d2b61dc32c83c0.jpg https://image.nostr.build/a294bfd106999a3e24c7c2f03d22c129dc31120a67489469871df3cf341238a4.jpg https://image.nostr.build/738101124ce2af9487e721120416cd37a81c3fa8dcbf14b5f509abf6696d3cc8.jpg https://image.nostr.build/e34387c63be83f227edaff97787b26ef2a05c6d5fea9bf832877c59690d74997.jpg https://image.nostr.build/1578aeb6b93d920a90b5277925245f711181d517dead9529f349da2300e919e0.jpg https://image.nostr.build/a4fc544ac6fc1fbcd266ef3cb333a542ae5cf6514431c0f7228cff2304bfc018.jpg

Fucking legend


3.125 has a 2-fold significance:

1. Bitcoin monetary policy puts BTC’s annual inflation (via mining) lower than gold’s annual inflation (via mining). This makes Bitcoin harder money than gold; makes Bitcoin even more of a sound money than gold.

2. Bitcoin issuance halving happened April 19, 2024:

“The most recent bitcoin halving took place on April 19, 2024. At the time, the reward for each block of mined bitcoin was cut in half from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. This event occurs approximately every four years, or more precisely, every 210,000 blocks.”

Can you “remotely” connect an on-chain wallet (either on mobile, like BlueWallet, or on desktop, like with a hardware wallet + Sparrow) to a Bitcoin Core node (full or pruned) on a separate computer?

I have to believe you can, because you’re connecting to *some* node every time you use the wallet, but by default you’re just using the wallet service provider’s node.

In Sparrow you can choose a few others, like Bitaroo and nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g. But how do you connected it to your own node on a different device? Or to your Uncle Jim’s node? Or be Uncle Jim for your friends & fam, and connect their wallet to your node? Is it different if the node runs over Tor?

Many questions. Perhaps someone could point me in the right direction in terms of resources around nodes?

There is always more to learn and I fucking love it. Hope you’ve all had a stellar weekend, nostriches 🫂💜🤙

Inflation (Sith) vs Disinflation (Jedi)

"Inflation is theft." - nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe, author The Price of Tomorrow

The inflationary Sith Dark Side force: Government prints more money, leading to inflation, so prices of goods and services don't fall.

The disinflationary Jedi Light Side force: Technological advancements increase productivity, which lowers the cost of goods and services.

ChatGPT:

Disinflation / productivity-driven deflation, is generally considered beneficial because it reflects increased efficiency and lower production costs rather than a decrease in demand.

Productivity-driven deflation vs harmful deflation:

It's important to distinguish productivity-driven deflation from harmful deflation caused by a decrease in demand. The former is a result of positive changes in the economy, while the latter can lead to economic stagnation and unemployment.

Disinflation is generally viewed positively as it reflects improvements in the efficiency of production and can lead to increased economic growth and consumer benefits.


The Web is taken.

They control your data: Servers can change anything you send at any time: E-mails, medical records, private family pictures, social media posts, orders etc. You won't even notice it. Not only they can change, but you can also create new content as if they were made by you. Your history is written by them.

Servers do too much: They convinced us we don't have enough processing power and moved all the logic from our applications into servers. Even though a phone has an equivalent processing power than a single server today, we believe we must use complicated server architectures to achieve anything in the web. Phones are the cloud.

Everything is a rental: You don't own your domain name. It's a rental. Your server is a rental. Your digital certificate is a rental. You don't own anything. Your digital identity is a rental.

Data Silos force you to stay: Moving is too hard. They profit on making things just difficult enough to keep your around. After all, it's just 9.99 a month.

Enter the Verifiable Web

Own your keys, own your content. No one can write for you. No one can change what you write.

Sign everything you send. Every little like, every little key press. If it wasn't signed, it didn't happen.

Verify everything you receive. Trust the signer, not the servers in between.

Cool; thanks for the feedback!


Thanks! And sorry about the quality of the JPG image. It’s pretty dull and pixelated. But the original JPG looks great. Will upload each design separately so the quality is better.


Shoot. Discovering that uploading JPGs to Nostr via nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 really craps the quality of the original JPG file. Must be some serious compression going on during upload.

Will test uploading each design separately.

I’m still pretty new to eCash and copy-pasting, so was probably my fault.

Or, I mis-copied your Ecash token from your screenshot.


Thanks!


Interesting. I’m still new to eCash. Copy-and-pasted your string into my eNuts Receive side, then chose Redeem Ecash.

I'm not trying to make you guys wrap yourself in tinfoil— almost nobody needs to be as paranoid as I am, and even I am tremendously lazy about opsec these days. The key is *awareness*: to simply be cognizant of what kind of records you're generating as you go about your life, so you can make informed, reasoned judgments about how much of it you can leave hanging out, and what parts of it you'd rather pay an effort-tax to shield from appearing in somebody's (or everybody's) database.

#Bitcoin  is more American than the US Dollar
nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy

"The United States has attained the level of freedom that it has (or did have) due to the governance structure that the Founders set up, which was designed with embedded gridlock between the three branches of government so that it would be hard to change things. Because when governments change things, it's usually at the detriment of the individual and their sovereignty. Gridlock is what the framers believed would be the main protection of the rights of the individual. Not subject to a democratic vote.

If it was gridlock by design and the primary protections in place were meant to prevent the centralization of power under any of the three branches, the complete centralization of the money supply is the single greatest force undermining the intended structure. With the ability to print money at will allows the government to fund itself via unfettered debt expansion functionally funded by the Federal Reserve. The framers intended for the funding of government to be by the consent of the governed principally through taxation or otherwise actually paid for by the public via real money. Not something that can be created ex nihilo."

#Bitcoin is a game theoretical separation of powers, a checks-and-balance system between coders, miners, and users, none of whom can control it. #BTC is open source money of the people, by the people, for the people.

Hacking away in oslo on an iOS-style navigation control for egui, the ui library we use in damus notedeck/android. Slowly building a multiplatform, mobile-friendly ui toolkit not dependant on any particular operating system.

Since this is not web tech, we have all of the power of a bare metal app. It’s so flexible you could even embed damus into a game engine and render it within a game, all we need is a graphics context to render to.

Maybe one day this stack can be used to build a completely sovereign mobile OS with native nostr and bitcoin integration. Might be a crazy idea, but you never know!

Announcing: Harbor, an ecash desktop wallet for better bitcoin privacy.

https://blog.mutinywallet.com/harbor/

Privacy for the common person is a value worth fighting for. When we see a lack of freedom tools, we must build them into existence. They don't appear on their own.

Much has been said about privacy at the Bitcoin protocol level. For now, we build it on higher layers where we can be more nimble.

Ecash is a tool available today that combines with Bitcoin to bring new levels of common privacy. Cashu and Fedimint are two existing implementations we're interested in.

https://m.primal.net/ISqH.png

Harbor Privacy: All communication runs over Tor. Mutiny is not in the middle of any connections or transactions. Funds in the wallet get a Privacy Score to show how the mints provide privacy over time. More to come on this in the future.

https://m.primal.net/ISqJ.png

Harbor Multi-mint: Instead of relying on a single mint with your funds, spread the risk over dozens or more. Harbor manages this for you, showing you a single balance while connecting with mints for you. A mint can go offline with minimal impact on you.

https://m.primal.net/ISqK.png

Harbor Automation: Running as a desktop app unlocks ability to do long running processes in the background. Move money in and out of mints on your preferred schedule to maximize your desired level of privacy. Harbor makes suggestions, but you are in control.

Move money in and out of Harbor using Lightning or on-chain. We love Bitcoin, and we love privacy. We hope Harbor gives everyday people more privacy and peace of mind.

Why is deflation MUCH WORSE for the economy than inflation?

Because of the fucked-up fact that the economy is built on debt. And, as nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe, author of The Price of Tomorrow, points out, "No government will allow deflation because their debt will collapse."

You and your loved ones are permanently stuck between government propping up inflation on one hand and fending off debt collapse on the other.

Getting *outside of the system* by using #Bitcoin, as Jeff points out, is the only solution.

A legal coinjoin; cool. Hopefully that works to break the connection of KYC from initial exchange to non-KYC LN usage.


In case anyone missed this or it wasn’t obvious, zap.stream now has regular video support. Meaning it acts like YouTube or flare.pub. Soon you’ll be able to upload videos and start “channels” - basically branded npubs.

I *think* I have this correctly in my head. Please correct any mistakes I’ve made.

Bitcoin transactions are broadcast to the Bitcoin network to be verified by the network of 19k nodes running Nakamoto Consensus rule.

If a transaction passes inspection, it’s bundled together with other transactions to be Proof-of-Work mined and added to the next Block in the Bitcoin blockchain.

Pic taken with my phone. It’s amazing how technology has allowed me to simply carry around a camera that I can instantly see the results.

In the 1970s, we had to buy film, load it in a camera, take pics, drive to the store and drop off film to be developed, wait a week, return to the store to pick it up, and - fingers-crossed - the pictures weren’t out of focus, light-leaked or blank. https://image.nostr.build/a4fbc73e88b24aed2cd4259ae0cb10e6ae8c6f72b93376e1f0ee856f38abbe0c.jpg

That Portal looks cool as fuck 💪


Bitcoin fees are currently only a dollar, but niche programmers are suggesting to change the fundamental nature of bitcoin and increase its attack surface to make it more scalable… for people who don’t necessarily know or understand the trade offs of that scaling.

Scaling is an important discussion, but everything is a trade off. I like many of the scaling discussions, but rushing them is another matter.

It costs me $100 to buy a 1oz gold coin by mail, or to send signed documents internationally in a few days. Verification is expensive.

The idea that global monetary verification should be super cheap inherently comes with security trade offs.

All ideas should be evaluated carefully and come to major consensus. Otherwise change proposers risk a fork war.

nostr:npub1q8w7u2ymrghfpp6v5dpg57jpgaj2djk340a2npwzq8n64ksk6wxq8aw95u There is no need to use a recovery email or recovery phone. Adding a recovery email/phone can be used to identify you and it is not a requirement. Instead use the "recovery phrase" function.

https://proton.me/support/set-account-recovery-methods

Proton has said time and time again, if you practice good OPSEC, they will not have any data to hand over when forced by gov to do so.

Without sharing my client guide here, the gist is that I recommend Proton be used in a compartmentalized way, with your "official" main front-facing account using your real name and/or personal domain "business" email for official purposes. This is a huge win over using Google for most people.

There are 15 @protonmail.com etc addresses that can be used for forwarding old email (to a pseudonym email) another for purchases, another for banking, an anonymous email with just random numbers for other purposes etc.

One can then use the unlimited simplelogin aliases (they have the ability to send mail from the alias, not just receive...unlike the current built-in proton aliases) to avoid spam/breaches.

It is best in class for these purposes.

To answer your question:

I recommend signing up and using another FREE Proton Mail account (no payment method required) for anonymous email not associated with your identity or VPN...sign up over TOR and only access over TOR.

Bonus: You can also sign up with another separate account FOR JUST VPN (if you want/need more compartmentalization). It depends on your threat model.


My circle of BTC friends all use Signal. Telegram has never even been mentioned.

If you already enjoy #eNuts, you will fall even more deeply in love with it soon. Here are some of the highlights we are working on:

- Simplified payment flows
- Improved seed restore process
- Support for device local-authentication (PIN, fingerprint, facial recognition, depending on the user's device settings)
- Expanded color variations for each theme, along with additional themes
- Russian and Chinese translations
- Major navigation improvements and bug fixes
- Significant UX enhancements and a fresh polished UI, providing a much smoother native experience on both Android and iOS platforms

Plus, we are enhancing the project maintainability by implementing crucial end-to-end test suites 🤓

Prioritizing improvements to existing codebase over adding new protocol elements.

A decade ago I was in my car at a stoplight, and there was a bunch of seagulls eating a discarded bag of fast food in the intersection.

When the light turned green, the car in front of me went slowly to give the seagulls a chance to fly away, but they didn't. Instead, the car's tire just slowly ran over a whole pile of seagulls, who just kept going after the fast food as they were run over. I just watched horrified as this played out.

Every once in a while, I just wonder why the seagulls never got out of the way despite how slow the threat was.

Anyway, looking at the bond market reminded me of this again today.

All of the profits from the first thousand copies of Broken Money went to the Human Rights Foundation, since Alex Gladstein's public research was so useful for the book and I like the work they are doing worldwide.

The profits from the next four thousand copies went to making an animated half-hour video about Broken Money to reach people that haven't read the book, which we released a few days ago.

My graphics/editing team wanted to make sure that the video had good average viewer time in the first week to help with the YouTube algorithm, rather than the video be sent a ton of clicks that might watch it only briefly and hurt the early quality metrics, so they advised me to soft-launch it at first. We purposely haven't notified my email list or my Twitter feed yet, etc. But it's out there.

It's a half-hour video about the technological evolution of money, with animation. We put a lot of production value into it. And for the people who were sad that I didn't narrate the Broken Money audiobook, I did narrate this video.

In the coming weeks I will spread awareness for the video across my platforms, but for starters, it has been found here on Nostr.

Enjoy:

“Bitcoin the currency is like email [in the early days of the Internet]. It’s not the real invention. It’s just the first application of that invention.

“So Bitcoin, as a whole, is not just money for the Internet. It’s the internet of money. And currency is just the first application on the internet of money.

My grandson is 13.

My daughter’s gonna help him open his first savings account.

How can my grandson’s $100 maintain the same purchasing year-after-year?


Some essential characteristics of Mutiny Wallet.

Non-custodial:
- You are in control of your keys
- The node runs on your device
- Any critical data that exists is saved on your device and encrypted remotely for backups

Not an LSP:
- We do not run a node or LSP, we interface with others
- You may open channels to any node
- We never process any lightning channel, payments, on-chain txs, UTXOs, etc.
- Our lightning address server is built with blinded auth, and we can't link payments to your node

Open-source:
- MIT
- The web app is available in case app stores go down
- Self-hostable, already bundled with start9

We strongly believe in building software that gives users the most control and least dependence upon us. It's not easy; centralization brings a much better user experience. However, for the longevity of ourselves, our product, and our users, this is what we believe is the correct path to take.

I looked up Obtanium. Looks like it’s for F-droid.

Would that make Phoenix work in the U.S.?


Damn. Phoenix is one of my favorite #Bitcoin Lightning Wallets.

Which "Don't Trust, Verify" #Bitcoin t-shirt artwork do you like the best?

1. Vertical

2. Horizontal https://image.nostr.build/a7874638be882d13ba1aa63040ca1cc14f4fc9f2662e16d177035093622235e7.jpg https://image.nostr.build/22fbc0f1ac9b8240c07b11bd0e9b15bcff5e539ca9f0260ae8faa9f217e44b60.jpg


Privacy is normal and good.

There has been an effort among authorities to make “money laundering” and “financial privacy” the same thing. That is, the mere act of moving money privately itself becomes a crime. That’s not okay.

Money laundering is when money that is obtained through crime is concealed by obfuscating it with clean money. The actual crime is the initial non-financial crime (say, mob stuff), and historically money laundering involves manual activity to work with the criminals.

Now that open source tech can make certain transactions private, authorities increasingly equate all private money transfer with money laundering, even if the developer of the open source tech had no direct involvement with criminals. Authorities target them regardless, and sanction the technology itself. Financial privacy becomes synonymous with crime in their minds, and in the minds of the public.

As I have said for a long time, money is superordinate to laws. In other words, when money is broken, laws are changed to protect the winners of the  manipulation of money, rather than citizens.

The recent news is only one more step in the inevitable fight to centralize everything…..”in the name of protecting you”

A dystopian control structure preying on you by pretending to be the free market.

PS - Been expecting this and a lot more.
I stand ready.

Game on!


Wisdom from Gary Vaynerchuk.

Limit your time with people who:

- sit around and complain
- aren't kind to others
- don't support your ambitions
- see the downside of every situation
- aren't optimistic and positive


I queried the Googles:

Q: Did Shakespeare use #bitcoin?

A: Shakespeare did not use Bitcoin. In fact, Bitcoin did not exist until more than 400 years after Shakespeare’s time. Shakespeare lived from 1564 to 1616, and Bitcoin was created in 2009.

Clearly a misinterpretation of the facts.


#Bitcoin is a seedling.

A pessimist sees a seedling and compares it to a tree.

Saying the seedling doesn’t stand a chance and ridicules its future.

An optimist sees a seedling and compares it to a tree.

Saying the seedling stands a chance and participates in its future.

STAY AWAY FROM PESSIMISTS

"Then 2008 happened. They bailed out those banks and I was pissed off! I said, 'They're going to debase the money.' It started off as just a TARP, then it went to QE1 and QE2 and...with zero percent interest.

"The Fed balance sheet was 800 billion and it went to 1.5 trillion. I freaked out!

"These savings I got, they're going to get debased. I'm not going to have a good retirement if they get debased!

"So I got radicalized for sound money. What drove Satoshi to write the #Bitcoin White paper was also what drove me to pivot my business."

For me, mechanical vs robotic is my grandpa’s 1970s hand-crank mechanical drill vs my brother’s 2024 electric power drill.

And nowadays, robots have built-in power everything.


Gold: inflationary, but only a wee bit each year. Like, 1-2%.

U.S. dollar: holy fuck, like a shit-ton pumped into the economy during COVID. Like, goddamn 😂 And now we got trillion-dollar spend bills. SMH

#Bitcoin: muthafuckin’ deflationary. And, a wee bit more deflationary every 4 years.


First time compiling all of what I’ve learned from various Bitcoin peeps over the years. h/t nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe for the proper view on technology.

Technology increases productivity, which reduces the cost of products and services to their marginal cost of production.

Fiat inflation: increased money supply leads to inflation which leads to increased prices which fucks with citizen's savings and purchasing power.

Technology is deflationary.

Fiat is inflationary

#Bitcoin: Supply cap of 2.1 quadrillion satoshi. And as of April 19, 2024, has a lower inflation rate (supply issuance) than gold - making Bitcoin harder money than gold. (Gold inflation rate ~2% per year; Bitcoin inflation rate ~0.8% for the next 4 years/210,000 blocks).

Bitcoin follows a specific issuance, which decreases ~every 4 years, leading to an eventual supply issuance of zero. Leading to a 100% deflationary asset.

Government fiat does NOT follow a specific issuance, suffers from deficit spending and bank loans, leading to ever-increasing inflation.

Putting it all together:

Technology increases productivity, which lowers cost of goods to their marginal cost of production.

Fiat economies suffer from inflation, that fucks over citizen's savings and purchasing power.

Bitcoin is deflationary, protecting citizen's savings and purchasing power.


I see a lot of hand-wringing in Bitcoin about "my mom can't use this" and not enough "let's teach our kids to use this"

If you think your mom is the future of Bitcoin you might not understand how the future works. 🫠

Bitcoin mining pools should issue rewards in ecash so that participants can mine without an account and remain private. Miners can withdraw their ecash balance to Lightning or on-chain whenever they feel like it.

Nobody needs to know who you are and how much you've earned while mining. This is more important than most people realize.


I celebrated the Halvening by purchasing a Wagyu 1/2 cow from @KCCattleCompany

21% off by paying with #bitcoin

But it’s more than the discount. It’s more than having a freezer full of high quality beef.

It’s knowing I’m helping an American Veteran owned and operated cattle business fight back against the big corporations who manipulate the market and sell us inferior products.

They fuck us with inflation and their “cure” is cheap shitty food

We’re opting out and creating parallel economies, supply chains, and lines of communications

#Bitcoin analogy

All my Hang-10 friends know that the waves crashing on the shore is where the best surfing is.

They also know the waves crashing on the shore isn’t the entirety of the ocean.

Peeps point to Bitcoin’s volatility like it’s the only view. It ain’t.

Volatility is just where the surfing takes place - in linear scale. The real strength of the ocean is its smooth vastness - in logarithmic scale.


rights aren’t given, they’re taken.

bitcoin and nostr help you take and defend them, peacefully.

Bitcoin *does* solve problems for people in the West, because people in the West experience the same problem that all fiat currencies produce:

inflation


Them: *everyone's* dollars lose value to some degree, that's how growing economies work

Me: "Everyone's dollars lose value to some degree" is the absolute worst sales pitch for dollars! People work hard at their job (sometimes 2 or 3 jobs), only to have their purchasing power fucked over by the *dollars lose value to some degree* sales pitch. Inflation makes regular working-class lives harder!


“You can just use regular currency because bitcoin doesn't solve any existing problem with currency.”

I’ve spent enough time chatting with normies to realize this is one of the giant obstacles for them.

And I 100% empathize. I was in the exact same boat: “what problem”?

Inflation is a vampire.

#Bitcoin is the wooden stake through its heart.


100 years ago, people bemoaned the uselessness and waste-fullness of a new technology called the automobile.

It was only for rich fucks.

It scared the horses.

There were no roads.

There were no gas stations.

And a whole new era of air pollution.

Today, it's #Bitcoin and AI that get dragged.


Artificial Intelligence is not taking away your freedom, right, inclination, and urge to beam your creativity out into the world.

AI is not making you artistically dis-human.

You still dream up dance moves and beats and color palettes and fabric ensembles and wordsmithing.

Your heart ain’t AI.


Financial privilege is when you’re ignorant of other people’s dilemmas because you don’t have those same dilemmas.

And you think #Bitcoin is useless because your financial privilege protects you.

In the past year, I’ve been to two Nostr events. #Nostrville in person last November, and #CultureShock online in February. And at the end of May, I’ll be putting one on in my hometown.

#NostrVillage in NYC is coming. https://i.nostr.build/zd5q4.jpg


Bitcoin’s scarcity is derived from halving every 210,000 blocks.

2.1 quadrillion Satoshi is all there’s gonna be.

In 🍕 terms:

Scarcity = one pizza; 2.1 quadrillion slices

Just wait until the “#Bitcoin and AI uses so much energy” peeps find out about Kardashev scale civilizations and Dyson spheres.


That looks like a fun slide.


To the serf, #bitcoin is overpriced.

For the sovereign individual, #bitcoin is priceless.

If you don't get it I don't have time to explain.

Question:

What’s the most underrated thing about Toastmasters?

Answer:

Table Topics.

I volunteered for Table Topics* during my first visit to a Toastmasters club, and immediately realized it was the best use of my time to get comfortable being uncomfortable while speaking in front of strangers.

*A section of a Toastmasters club meeting where you have 1-2 minutes to extemporaneously answer a surprise question.


Beautiful


What many people don't understand is that words like "understand" aren't arbitrary. Once the construct in your mind is stable enough, you "understand" it, meaning you can "stand under" it without it crumbling and killing you.

All words are like that.

I never met my great-grandparents. They all died before I was born.

However, my Mom and Dad , me, my daughter, and my grandson are all alive. This window won’t last forever, and it’s cool to have 4 generations currently alive.

We’ve now have the capital backing for our first landfill-gas-powered bitcoin mining project

One small step closer to taking the bitcoin network emission negative and ending Bitcoin energy FUD

We’re now turning our attention to identifying as many landfill sites as we can that fit our brief.

If you have contacts in waste management and want to know more about what we’re looking for, send me a Nostr message.


Thanks for the heads up.


Thanks for mentioning Bitwarden.

I’m old school with eWallet. It’s not online at all, just on my computer.

Will also tell client about LastPass and 1Password.

“Based on that rigorous testing, Bitwarden is currently CNET's top pick for the best password manager.”

Right?!? They’re a new-to-me client, and I’ll def be educating them.


As a new client’s usernames and passwords roll in for their web hosting, domain name, Google account, WordPress plugins, online storage…

All of the passwords are the same password.

Nooooooooo!

PASSWORDS MUST NEVER BE RE-USED! NEVER!

Every online account you create MUST have a new password.

Use a Password Manager to store and manage all of your passwords.

CITADEL DISPATCH 121: BITCOIN IN AFRICA WITH KG - FOUNDER OF MACHANKURA

Best of success on feeling better


Current interest rate with Ally savings account is 4.25%. Capital One 360 Performance savings account is 4.35%.

This is absolute garbage!

I’m not looking for piddly interest rates on my savings. I’m looking for the prices of everything in life to be lower year after year.

The utility price of housing, food, utilities, education should be *lower* than what my parent’s paid.

As Jeff Booth points out, “technology increases productivity, which lowers the price of goods to their marginal cost of production.”

I don’t want a piddly 4.25% on my savings. I want prices to be lower than what my parent’s paid.

#Bitcoin fixes this.

Why don’t I like cherry picked cases about #Bitcoin being involved in illicit activities?

Because it’s always blown out of the water.

We never hear stories from mainstream media about people being decent and prosper.

And it’s not a coincidence that a majority of my family members get a concerned look when I bring up #BTC.

There’s an unbalanced perception of this technology, and I believe that creates a lot of asymmetry in favor of believing in #Bitcoin. If it fails things continue as they were in a slow implosion of doom. If it succeeds then humanity will know no end to the fruits of their labor.

#Bitcoin empowers the individual, promotes financial inclusion, and is an effective alternative to both domestic and international trade.

Intellectual skepticism is about to make a lot of people look real dumb. Study #BTC, you might thank me later. https://image.nostr.build/9c7b4233d72f94cf87d9fdc90f7ebce11849be76e21fd39343c7e8f8d95081be.jpg


Satoshi responds to Greenpeace Climate Criticism (14 years ago!)

Reposted from nostr:npub1jfujw6llhq7wuvu5detycdsq5v5yqf56sgrdq8wlgrryx2a2p09svwm0gx by nostr:npub1u9yj772rsptrvunaw9ypdgg0kxgrkkgkzxacp3hcp9qr35ypyzvqevqv33
October 29, 2022

The CEO of Bitcoin did, in fact, speak up from his hidden fortress back in 2010 and delivered a pointed response to 2022's faux environmentalists.

In 2010 a user on the forum raised a criticism about the very high "energy waste" needed for Bitcoin mining. Satoshi responded —

It's the same situation as gold and gold mining. The marginal cost of gold mining tends to stay near the price of gold. Gold mining is a waste, but that waste is far less than the utility of having gold available as a medium of exchange.
I think the case will be the same for Bitcoin. The utility of the exchanges made possible by Bitcoin will far exceed the cost of electricity used. Therefore, not having Bitcoin would be the net waste.

And Satoshi wound up persuading the original critic —

After more careful study of the design of the Bitcoin network and trying to understand the exact manner in which Bitcoin attempts to create value from the computational work invested, I am now inclined to think that bitcoin is in fact high EFFICIENT rather than inefficient. My thinking now is that bitcoin does not, in fact "waste" computational work at all - instead it works hard to deliver the most value possible from that computational work. Something like a government issued fiat currency may not have any obvious energy burden beyond its printing - but in fact, maintaining the value of a fiat currency requires a substantial investment in maintaining police enforcement, a legal system, and national defense. In comparison to the energy cost of hiring police officers to enforce economic honesty, the energy costs of investing cpu cycles in guaranteeing that honesty mathematically seem very small.
