Safe travels Sir.


Imagine living in a building where one neighbor forcefully moves in, violently evicting the majority of the building’s flat-owners. This neighbor then occupies one of your rooms—just like that, for decades. To make matters worse, they install cameras and microphones in your bedroom, living room, and even your bathroom, monitoring your every move at will. Whenever you or other flat-owners in the building—or even nearby neighbors—try to resist, you’re all shot at: newborns, children, women, and men. But that same despicable neighbor controls the media and academia, manipulating narratives so you’re not even allowed to name the injustice. Instead, you’re expected to obey and submit like a traumatized, abused animal.

This neighbor is Israel. No one “invited” retribution. If you haven’t been paying attention to the almost 50,000 massacred civilians in Gaza, or the thousands killed in Lebanon in 1976, 1982, 2006, and now in 2024, I urge you to learn the history. I refuse to act as a traumatized, defeated victim. When I see a killer occupying one of my rooms after massacring tens of thousands of my neighbors, I refuse to cower and accept it. If you choose to live that way, that is your choice—but millions like me will not.

Lebanon is far greater than any one political party. When a genocidal aggressor oppresses our sovereignty, violates our independence, and targets our civilians, our internal differences become secondary. In war, when faced with an enemy intent on domination, I stand with my fellow Lebanese siblings to defend our land and dignity—not side with an aggressor seeking our submission. This fight is about survival, dignity, and the right to live free from tyranny.

And as for what Lebanese women can and cannot wear—go on YouTube, see for yourself, and realize just how wrong and brainwashed you have been.

The UK government has faced several major corruption allegations, with recent scandals highlighting issues of transparency, misuse of public funds, and cronyism. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the government controversially awarded billions in contracts under non-competitive circumstances, often to companies with political connections, creating a "VIP lane" that fast-tracked contracts for firms connected to government figures. This lane gave politically affiliated suppliers a tenfold advantage over other firms, many of which were newly created and lacked relevant experience. The total value of contracts with potential conflicts of interest or other "corruption red flags" reached an estimated £15.3 billion, sparking calls for thorough investigations and significant concerns about the erosion of public trust in UK institutions.

These practices contributed to a significant drop in the UK's ranking in Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index, marking its lowest standing ever. Investigations have suggested that both favoritism and inadequate procurement safeguards during the pandemic may have led to wasteful spending and allowed corruption to flourish. Moreover, the Cabinet Office and the Department of Health’s handling of pandemic-related contracts has led to a sharp decline in public confidence in the government’s integrity, as watchdogs like Transparency International continue to press for reform and accountability in public procurement processes.

The rapid decline in the UK's anti-corruption reputation, particularly in public sector transparency and fair spending, is being noticed globally and has spurred calls for structural reforms to ensure that future public funds are safeguarded from similar vulnerabilities. As these investigations unfold, they underscore the urgency of adopting better controls to limit favoritism and enhance government accountability in public spending.

9 CLUES YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE ORIGIN OF SATOSHI NAKAMOTO

https://video.nostr.build/fbb9ff50f8c5a4848019a43636fe7f220621283a6d511c2127d12cb02a46e446.mp4

GROUND ZERO: LONDON 🇬🇧

The headline in block 0 has a different wording than the version published online.

The phrasing matches the print edition, which was only available in England and Brussels on that day.

Either Satoshi was there, or someone sent him a photo (leaving a trace).

https://image.nostr.build/48ffc23b736d3e2dc7328be8d5b37e94a9f66d762eeb447d1df54e23104dd961.jpg

THE BELGIAN CONNECTION 🇧🇪

The 2nd citation in the whitepaper from 2008 didn’t exist online—it was only in print. It was given to attendees at a 1999 conference in Haasrode, Belgium.

This paper is from Benelux universities. It was even presented in 1999 at Stanford, but with a different reference list than the one replicated in the whitepaper (citations 3, 4, and 5).

https://image.nostr.build/c8a07fd34f2d87028561cd5754558c67a4de51592c69877a62b2a87d0f11b8a0.jpg

HAL WAS RUNNING 🏃♂

Hal Finney is a frequent suspect, but his family has strongly denied it.

On the morning of Saturday, 4/18/09, he was running a half marathon while Satoshi was exchanging emails (more than one, with questions and answers) with developer Mike Hearn.

https://image.nostr.build/5a5916e56edd8d1c525269ec2ccb82faed3963a9429fdc96d26bb66fede4aa87.png

THE LOS ANGELES IP 📍

Satoshi was in L.A. a week after the genesis block.

He always used Tor to hide his IP when online.

But in the beginning, Bitcoin didn’t have addresses. To send/receive, one’s IP was exposed. And on 1/10/09, Hal published a log showing Satoshi's IP.

https://image.nostr.build/a2a30b45d3cfd0d1052ece8d27ad0c8793f67c33d1480084491f8e719e5d06ba.png

THE FINAL CITATION 📜

The paper’s bibliography is outdated and brief.

Notably, the 8th citation stands out: a "book X" on probability theory, published in 1957.

Where did Satoshi find this book?

Why cite it, but make no mention of Chaum, Finney, or Szabo?

https://image.nostr.build/2ba10323b3ca09e3f41f50ce18d1b718024bcccb164c17ac4de62e405e877248.jpg

CARIBBEAN HOLIDAY 🏖

Peter Thiel, PayPal magnate, suspects that Satoshi might have been among the 140 attendees at a financial cryptography conference held at the InterIslands Hotel in Anguilla, February 21-24, 2000.

E-gold was one of the event’s sponsors.

https://image.nostr.build/25b33842dcf923f0d6b4ddbd5f4e18478859728fbbc1f185f60ce268c8b5d353.jpg

BRITISH "LOOSE" LANGUAGE 👅

Satoshi heavily used British expressions ("bloody hard," "defenCe," "grEy," "coloUr").
He used the European date format (dd/mm/yyyy).
He frequently referenced the Euro.

In some cases, he seemed to use a grammar checker.

He also put two spaces after periods.

https://image.nostr.build/49714e2ae002c330966dd4d6483ddc5416ab1ecd9db8d2c1b3244614918ea98e.jpg

WEALTHY FRIENDS 🤑

In the latest emails revealed by Martti Malmi, it’s clear that Satoshi had access to resources to fund the development of #BTC.

He claimed it was donations. So, there were people he was talking to about the project. Or it was his own money...

https://image.nostr.build/6221f535e15842337fc8b8b2004d44288867df9e66282fd05a8b29694608db22.png

A PLANNED DEPARTURE 👋

The creator's disappearance may seem abrupt. Satoshi said goodbye as soon as he learned about Gavin A.'s discussions with the CIA.

But his departure was planned and gradual.

Satoshi gradually shut down his hashrate in 4 stages—when the network was already running on its own.

https://image.nostr.build/d323d27d1d484dfcad4bbf8e335a9d92cd648a529bfae151cc93416ede81e1e9.jpg

His self-declared birthday, 4/5/75, has digits that sum to 21 (5 + 4 + 7 + 5).

The date of block #1, 1/9/2009, also sums to 21 (9 + 1 + 2 + 9).

The halving happens every 210,000 blocks.

Until the 21 million #Bitcoin are exhausted, in 2140.

Here’s the thing about the bitcoin-Trump-govt-takeover doomers…

First, Trump doesn’t care about bitcoin or crypto that much. The argument always seems to be some big conspiracy to make a CBDC and use the bitcoin rocket to expand their reach and dominate all the KYC paper bitcoin and trap everyone in it, etc etc.

But it’s only us who put bitcoin at the center of our “plans.” They are “playing with it” because it’s this tiny side project that has been making money. Thats it. Trump is interested because there are voters he can appeal to. There is SO much honesty in the “and whatever else you are playing with” comment. He doesn’t care about any of this, and neither do the overwhelming majority of them.

It’s a bunch of opportunists that see growing numbers and so they buy an exchange, they try to dominate  this and that market, etc. it’s nothing new.
Look at the stupid shitcoins they keep issuing. You think these are brilliantly laid plans? They could barely sell anything of their latest scam.

And of course when considering the exploiters of the old system, they will have more capital to dominate the new, but this doesn’t change in any way the fundamental incentive shift that occurs within the Bitcoin model.

Fiat has a corruption loophole, Bitcoin plugs that loophole.

Quit declaring failure before things even get off the ground. And quit framing Bitcoin’s importance through OUR lens instead of theirs. They don’t have that.

This is where “stay humble” shows up in practice, imo. We aren’t the most important thing in their world. We are winning and just need to put our head down and build solutions to TODAY’s problems, not throw our hands up in surrender or put all our concern in some elaborate, long term “probably going to happen” master plan.

Thats just my 2 sats

My dad ran a diner for 35+ years, and my mom spent 30+ years working an administrative job at a hospital. I grew up middle class, a child of Greek immigrants. My dad retired 2015, my mom 2019.

In 2013, I gave my mom some Bitcoin for money that I owed her. She said she'd hold. I made sure she would by keeping custody of it. 😂

They started DCAing small amounts of BTC in 2016 and never stopped. I have years worth of texts from my mom proudly proclaiming she bought the dip!

The few sats they managed to save outperformed my mom's 401k by miles. Now they live where they always wanted to, and just built an extension on their modest home. They wanted more room for when their grandkids visit. 🧡

It couldn't have happened without Bitcoin.

It feels good to know I was there for the people who took care of me.

A friendly reminder that we are still far away from the #bitcoin 2021 ATH. https://m.primal.net/LukE.png


Relax and enjoy it. We are entering the absurdly volatile times and they don’t last very long, and they get reeeally nuts if I learned anything from the last 4 of them.

This one will be wild, no doubt. You should be a little scared, but it’s also fun. It’s like we’re getting to the top of the roller coaster climb and the *real* ride is about the start. Both excitement and fear are perfectly rational… buckle up 😂


Price breakouts are really important and it’s great to finally see one, but I’m also kind of in the camp that anything under $100K is boring by this point.


Imagine if Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, had listened to someone like Warren Buffett—a once widely respected investor who has remained skeptical of disruptive technologies.

Imagine if Nayib Bukele, President of El Salvador, had heeded the warnings of the IMF—a once trusted institution that has historically prioritized stability over innovation.

Imagined if you, a node on the network, had listened to a no coiner because they had more paper fiat than that average person.

Don't forget to send Fiatjaf a GM to show your gratitude 😂


First, they told you deflation was the real problem.

Then, they told you that there was no inflation and talk of it was only a conspiracy theory.

Then, they told you that inflation was indeed there but merely “transitory.”

Then, they told you Putin and greedy companies caused the inflation.

And now they’re telling you the inflation has been defeated.

In short, the Fed is spitting on your boots and telling you its raining. They’re gaslighting you.

Probably nothing.


Red Cross accounts for last year, several things:
- Over €500 million in grants, €475 million goes to personnel costs, 92%.
- Only 7.5% is health personnel.
- More than 4 million are going to pay the “Senior Management”, 64 people, 64k per head.

Never donate money to an NGO, they are simply businesses and the money never reaches its destination.

#Bitcoin solves this.

Independent media won this election hands down.

Legacy media threw everything they had at Trump this time around and no one listened.

You are the media now anon.

I totally had that too. Not even in the country.


A massive push back to globalists and the path to the removal of individual rights and freedoms.

Let’s see what comes next!

BREAKING: NO ONE CARES WHAT CELEBRITIES OR THE LEGACY MEDIA SAY.


Feels like memes won the election.

Candidates unironically have to be positively meme-able to be successful going forward.

And in particular, candidates can’t have the vibe of an HR manager that would call you into the office to talk about your inappropriate memes.

Trump is meme-able. Obama was meme-able. Even Biden had his Dark Brandon meme but otherwise was not great on that front. Kamala is totally not meme-able.
https://m.primal.net/LuYw.jpg


At this point Biden should just pardon Ross now as a gesture of good faith since Trump already promised to do it on day one.

Free Ross NOW and don’t make him spend another Christmas in prison.


Defeat the globalists that want to shutter your mind.

No new conflicts under Trump. Despite naively having many of the wrong people in his team, his first term seemed largely positively received apart from the debacle at the end. The calibre of the team around him this time seems very high to me. I think he's learned plenty about that sooner last time. Plus the danger he's subjected himself to in running this time, when most in his position wouldn't.


Democracy not democrats.


Having elections on days that are symbols of freedom. They are just messing with us now.

Here’s a fun little story about yesterday’s #DDOS attack…

As per usual I was sitting in front of the local bank, but unlike Saturdays there were people "working" there yesterday.
I put my chair right at the border of the private property of the bank and the public sidewalk, put on my speakers on medium volume and fell into the familiar state of Kosmos (a Greek word, that describes the meditative state of watching life pass by, while being an aware and silent observer).
After approx. 21 minutes I was rudely approached by the security manager of the bank: "I have domestic authority here, fuck off immediately! Otherwise I’ll call the police."
I calmly asked him to do so, if he thought it was necessary, knowing that his domestic authority wouldn’t affect me on a public sidewalk.
Some blocks went by, then I spotted two young policeman talking to the security guard and a guy in a suit.
One of them approached me.
👮🏼♂ "Hello Sir, we were called…"
I immediately recognized the person standing in front of me. We had spent years together annoying our teachers in school.
🐰⚡ "Till?"
The recognition was both ways. Old friends meeting again in vastly different contexts. Till had this broad grin on his face and asked me: "WTF are you doing here?"
I tried my best to explain but didn’t need to because he quickly recognized the situation. We checked if we still had each other’s numbers and decided to move the conversation to catch up on each other’s life’s to a different space and time.
He went back to the banksters and told them in a decisive tone and with the authority of the police uniform, that there is nothing they could do. That they should not harass me, since I’m just there using my right to voice my opinions.

Till and his colleague left with a 21 #Bitcoin bill each, a wink, and left me with an empowering feeling.
For the first time in my life I truly felt that I was talking on an eye to eye basis, with the police. https://image.nostr.build/e96569ef54660a0cb4a38f2d6072df865bc80521a17d75d1edd73932e4cb2322.jpg

As a gift for Bitcoin’s sweet 16 my friend Tomer Strolight (I’d tag him but the client keeps crashing when I do) and I have been doing a few calls a month where we rap deep about Bitcoin, how it has changed us, and how it is changing the world.  We thought that we would try sharing it as some folks might get some value out of it.

With that, I present the first episode (and maybe the last, who knows) of what we decided to call The Spirt of Satoshi!

Periodic reminder to keep a max of 3 relays in your outbox and inbox relay lists.

There are too many people with 20+ relays in there. You are forcing all of your followers to connect to 20+ relays to see your posts (outbox) or 20 + relays to see your replies, likes, zaps to your posts (inbox). Zaps to you are massive.

And I am willing to bet many relays in your list don't even receive your posts. Which is even more wasteful for your followers.

Highly cognitively inflexible apparently. Nonsense study though.


dont you dare forget how much they tried to censor you, deplatform you, destroy you financially, intimidate you, lie about you, and break you. they are being more quiet now, and hoping you will forget.
dont forget. dont live in bitterness, but never forget that they showed you who they really are.


the most important feature of bitcoin, that governments and Saylor bros miss, is the ability to charge for services, by goods, and store value, without a government ID or respect for borders. No other feature is more important in this time.

large corporate search engines, megacorporation AI systems, big Silicon Valley tech platforms, and megacorp hardware are more and more going to try to restrict what you can do, say, and see.
if you want to bypass that, learn to love old hardware, old protocols, ignored operating systems, and freedom tech protocols like nostr. they are not going to stop. neither should we.

Benefits of bitcoin do not exist under permissioned custodial service. Kyc bitcoin is exactly that.
If it’s all custodial or even majority custodial we will get on-chain censorship, which removes any benefit of sound money. The security of the network requires self custody and the ability for individuals to directly bid on blockspace without kyc entity.
Trusted 3rd party introduce onchain censorship and self custody is what secures the network.
Therefore giving users a chance to bid on bitcoin blockspace w/out financial institutional control.
Kyc is that control!

Good points well made.


The text below is the complete reason why Elon and the ID Card fanatics are 100% wrong.

The UK ID card is not what you think it is. It is not a simple identity document like your passport or driving license. It is in fact, a database backed control grid and the fulfilment of Orwells nightmare.

You may have heard that legislation creating compulsory ID Cards passed a crucial stage in the House of Commons. You may feel that ID cards are not something to worry about, since we already have Photo ID for our Passport and Driving License and an ID Card will be no different to that. What you have not been told is the full scope of this proposed ID Card, and what it will mean to you personally.

The proposed ID Card will be different from any card you now hold. It will be connected to a database called the NIR, (National Identity Register)., where all of your personal details will be stored. This will include the unique number that will be issued to you, your fingerprints, a scan of the back of your eye, and your photograph. Your name, address and date of birth will also obviously be stored there.

There will be spaces on this database for your religion, residence status, and many other private and personal facts about you. There is unlimited space for every other details of your life on the NIR database, which can be expanded by the Government with or without further Acts of Parliament.

By itself, you might think that this register is harmless, but you would be wrong to come to this conclusion. This new card will be used to check your identity against your entry in the register in real time, whenever you present it to 'prove who you are'.

Every place that sells alcohol or cigarettes, every post office, every pharmacy, and every Bank will have an NIR Card Terminal, (very much like the Chip and Pin Readers that are everywhere now) into which your card can be 'swiped' to check your identity. Each time this happens, a record is made at the NIR of the time and place that the Card was presented. This means for example, that there will be a government record of every time you withdraw more than £99 at your branch of Nat West, who now demand ID for these transactions. Every time you have to prove that you are over 18, your card will be swiped, and a record made at the NIR. Restaurants and off licenses will demand that your card is swiped so that each receipt shows that they sold alcohol to someone over 18, and that this was proved by the access to the NIR, indemnifying them from prosecution.

Private businesses are going to be given access to the NIR Database. If you want to apply for a job, you will have to present your card for a swipe. If you want to apply for a London Underground Oyster Card,or a supermarket loyalty card, or a driving license you will have to present your ID Card for a swipe. The same goes for getting a telephone line or a mobile phone or an internet account.

Oyster, DVLA, BT and Nectar (for example) all run very detailed databases of their own. They will be allowed access to the NIR,just as every other business will be. This means that each of these entities will be able to store your unique number in their database, and place all your travel, phone records, driving activities and detailed shopping habits under your unique NIR number. These databases, which can easily fit on a storage device the size of your hand, will be sold to third parties either legally or illegally. It will then be possible for a non governmental entity to create a detailed dossier of all your activities. Certainly, the government will have clandestine access to all of them, meaning that they will have a complete record of all your movements, from how much and when you withdraw from your bank account to what medications you are taking, down to the level of what sort of bread you eat - all accessible via a single unique number in a central database.

This is quite a significant leap from a simple ID Card that shows your name and face.

Most people do not know that this is the true character and scope of the proposed ID Card. Whenever the details of how it will work are explained to them, they quickly change from being ambivalent towards it.

The Government is going to COMPEL you to enter your details into the NIR and to carry this card. If you and your children want to obtain or renew your passports, you will be forced to have your fingerprints taken and your eyes scanned for the NIR, and an ID Card will be issued to you whether you want one or not. If you refuse to be fingerprinted and eye scanned, you will not be able to get a passport. Your ID Card will, just like your passport, not be your property. The Home Secretary will have the right to revoke or suspend your ID at any time, meaning that you will not be able to withdraw money from your Bank Account, for example, or do anything that requires you to present your government issued ID Card.

The arguments that have been put forwarded in favour of ID Cards can be easily disproved. ID Cards WILL NOT stop terrorists; every Spaniard has a compulsory ID Card as did the Madrid Bombers. ID Cards will not 'eliminate benefit fraud', which in comparison, is small compared to the astronomical cost of this proposal, which will be measured in billions according to the LSE (London School of Economics). This scheme exists solely to exert total surveillance and control over the ordinary free British Citizen,and it will line the pockets of the companies that will create the computer systems at the expense of your freedom, privacy and money.

If you did not know the full scope of the proposed ID Card Scheme before and you are as unsettled as I am at what it really means to you, to this country and its way of life, I urge you to email or photocopy this and give it to your friends and colleagues and everyone else you think should know and who cares. The Bill has proceeded to this stage due to the lack of accurate and complete information on this proposal being made public. Together & Hand to hand, we can inform the entire nation if everyone who receives this passes it on.

Great rip.


In 2000 Bill Joy wrote an article entitled, “Why the Future Doesn’t Need Us”. it was published in Wired magazine.

Californian technologistas are sometimes very pessimistic and often very bad at predicting the future.

There’s no reason to believe that the future has to be a bad one or that any of the tools that are being invented now are going to be the tools that destroy mankind.

Over and over again dire predictions about how technologies are going to end mankind, will cause terrible catastrophes and other fear porn guff have been trotted out again and again; it’s always by the same class of people who are more or less the same age. They are super pessimistic, un religious, ignorant, normally super rich and desperate to control other people.

These people need to be ignored. First of all, spreading unwarranted FUD is unethical (AnthropogenicGlobal Warming for example), second there’s no technology that man has inside computers that can’t be switched off, even if it were to become a problem, which there’s no evidence that AGI is going to be.

The choice everybody faces is whether we’re going to live like a bunch of frightened children, or are we going to live like men and go to the stars and do all those other things.

If everybody’s frightened of every single invention that comes forward and goes into the market, man will never get anywhere, and I’m personally sick and tired of reading the fear from people who don’t have powerful imaginations and to want everything to stay the same forever.

These same people are terrified of bitcoin and they’re very very scared that if it gets big, deflation will happen and the economy will be destroyed.

Of course they’re totally wrong. Bitcoin is not dangerous and the fear mongers will be ignored.

However this is a perfect example of how these technologists who are scaremongers don’t really understand what they’re talking about, are men of low degree and low character and are antihuman.

It’s up to the people who create things to do things responsibly and to not let inventions get out of their labs that are dangerous. Sometimes bad things are going to happen, but the greater risk is to not do things, not experiment and not move forward.

The fact of the matter is the future doesn’t need YOU. And that’s YOUR problem, not OURS.


Optimism rules. It's a breath of fresh air. What the world needs right now.

BIG DAY FOR ME.

I received my first ever zap ⚡ which is ♾% more than I earned on Twitter.

I booted up my first bitaxe. These are the first time current(ish) generation chips have been available in small form factor for years.

Shall I run it solo in lottery mode or contributing work to a pool?


Without seed oils ... right?


Highly regarded.

BRICS Unleashes Game-Changing Power Play: New Financial System Meets Energy Dominance

In a historic move that could reshape the global economic landscape, BRICS nations have unveiled a comprehensive strategy combining financial innovation with unprecedented energy market control, as revealed in their landmark Kazan declaration.

Financial Revolution Meets Energy Dominance

The alliance is simultaneously launching multiple initiatives that could fundamentally alter global power dynamics:

- BRICS Clear: A new cross-border settlement infrastructure
- BRICS Grain Exchange: Alternative commodities trading platform
- Local currency payment systems: Bypassing traditional financial channels
- Unified energy market: Creating world's largest energy trading bloc

The Energy Superblock Effect

What makes this particularly significant is the emergence of an energy superblock controlling over 40% of global energy production and consumption. This consolidation creates unprecedented price-setting power, potentially putting energy-dependent regions, particularly Europe, in a vulnerable position.

"The combination of alternative financial infrastructure and energy market dominance creates a powerful lever for reshaping global economic relationships," suggests the declaration, without directly stating this intention.

Strategic Implications

The initiative goes beyond mere market mechanics:

1. Financial Architecture:
- New payment systems reducing dependency on traditional channels
- Local currency trading expansion
- Independent reinsurance capacity

2. Energy Market Control:
- Unified pricing strategies
- Enhanced negotiating power
- Direct influence over global energy flows

3. Geopolitical Impact:
- Pressure on energy-scarce regions
- Alternative trade routes
- New economic alliances

Global Market Response

Markets are beginning to process these developments, particularly the implications for:
- Energy pricing mechanisms
- International trade flows
- Currency exchange patterns
- Regional economic stability

Looking Ahead

This convergence of financial innovation and energy market control signals a potential shift toward a multipolar economic order. Energy-dependent regions may need to develop new strategies for ensuring supply security and price stability.

The BRICS alliance also addressed current global conflicts in their declaration, emphasizing diplomatic solutions and humanitarian considerations, while positioning themselves as a stabilizing force in international relations.

This historic convergence of financial reform and energy market control could represent the most significant shift in global economic power since the Bretton Woods agreement. As markets digest these developments, the full impact on global trade, energy security, and economic stability remains to be seen.

...But it was more than that. I bought a couple beers in Lugano Switzerland with lightning, through Zeus wallet with my own lightning channel, connected to Alby Hub, running on my Start9 node, on my shelf in my office back home in Canada.

So yes, I just bought a couple beers. But it was fucking exciting.

I get your point but Murray Rudd, Allen Farrington, Freddie New, and Dennis Porter have done great work on this. Just feel it makes sense that this work responding to the ECB article should be rewarded.


Some of them do but that wasn't the primary goal, too small a data set.


101 on how gold was confiscated:

You had to turn it in for dollars by a deadline prior to dollar devaluation, and there were massive prison consequences for not turning it in, but little resources in terms of investigating who didn’t turn it in. That would be expensive. So it was fear based. Focusing on illegality and tail risks on edge cases more than enforcement on average.

Institutions had to comply immediately, since it’s all visible. So the government broke liquidity in the domestic gold market, which was enough for their purposes. Gold became a hard-to-trade illegal relic for those that held it.

If a small family hodled some extra bars for 40 years until it became legal again, they did okay.

But can the government track bitcoin in the 2020s better or worse than gold in 1930s for enforcement purposes? That’s the right question.

And don’t just think of confiscation. Think of 70% selective taxes and things like that. Far more within the current rule of law. That’s the sophisticated approach. Don’t take it. Selectively tax it by a lot.

Those are the politics to push against from a bitcoin perspective.


This is the way.

The point Saylor makes that he (FDR) “didn’t really seize the gold” and “kick in everybody’s door” is an argument for self-custody rather than against it.

Meaning, if you’e held your own gold when Executive Order 6102 was issued, you’d have been fine. But if you’d held your gold with a bank, there would be no way to get it back. You’d have to accept the conversion to fiat.

It’s great that the institutions are adopting Bitcoin now, and Saylor deserves credit for leading the way. Institutional adoption of Bitcoin was always going to be a step towards mass adoption. And it is true that certain use cases do require custodians, which is fine so long as users are aware of the trade-offs.

But it cannot be overstated that by holding your Bitcoin with trusted third parties, “the main benefits are lost.”

Satoshi warns against this in the very first page of the whitepaper.

Both this ECB paper and the recent one from the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank shine light on their barely concealed belief that people are here to serve the state. While the ECB paper drips with contempt, the Fed paper is blatant in its intent of keeping you trapped in the cycle of debt regardless of whether you want to be a part of it. Denying you a way out of the system is tantamount to making you a slave of it. The moral corruption underlying the motivation behind these papers is astonishing.

Whenever I see statists like the ECB get upset about Bitcoin, or when I see more brazen regimes try and actually implement an all-out ban or crazy tax scheme, I turn to my favorite bit of writing anywhere on Bitcoin and remind myself that a ban is the Berlin Wall and that “fragments of any ban will one day become souvenirs of the folly”

Bitcoin is Ariadne by nostr:npub1sfhflz2msx45rfzjyf5tyj0x35pv4qtq3hh4v2jf8nhrtl79cavsl2ymqt

“Bitcoin is often framed as “competing” with fiat currency. This is true in a sense but I fear there is a rhetorical danger of invoking the wrong kind of “competition”. It is not a fight, for example. There is no conflict. Bitcoin is not trying to damage or sabotage its opponents, because it isn’t trying anything and it knows no opponents. It has no awareness whatsoever of who might oppose it or why. It is simply an alternative; an exit valve; an opt-out. It is competing only insofar as it is proving to be a far superior alternative. It is not a sword for Theseus to fight the Minotaur, but a thread to follow to exit the labyrinth. Bitcoin is Ariadne.

There will be tremendous value in normalizing this rhetoric amidst the likely growing chorus of opposition desperate to smear Bitcoin as inherently nefarious, or hostile, even. Opponents must be forced to explain what is wrong with people interacting freely, and why true goodness can only follow from coercion, in their understanding. Should those who have found a way out of the unbearable labyrinth of capital strip mining not take it? What do they owe the Minotaur?

Does anybody really believe that, having fully understood the choice they face, any individual would choose to save in a self-referentially mispriced toxic loan rather than a provably sound digital bearer asset? Or, more simply still, that they will think it makes less sense to hold money that is a pure asset than money that is literally defined as a liability? Why not opt into a financial system that is built on trustless verifiability rather than unverifiable trust?

… It is worth working through the optics of any decision to engage with Bitcoin in a truly hostile manner, because it is certainly coming. McNeill reminds us that, even some seven-hundred-or-so years ago, “the breakdown of established patterns of conduct always appears deplorable to a majority of those who witness it.” By no means do I have a utopian outlook on this subject — rather, it is something of an intellectual rite of passage to accept the nonzero utility of dystopian paranoia. Bitcoin will be banned, many times, in many places. But a ban is an open admission of practical and moral failure and is arguably the best advertisement of all. A ban is the Berlin Wall; fragments of any ban will one day become souvenirs of the folly and cruelty of repression. Bitcoin doesn’t force anybody to stay. They come, and then they stay, because they want to — because it is both practically and morally superior.”


We are definitely in the early days of "then they fight you" stage.

https://m.primal.net/LdDE.jpg


The most plausible explanation for Saylor (no, I don’t think he is a spook), is that he’s just acting in his own self interest. He (and his company) have giant bags and neither will ever have the anonymous benefits that can come with #bitcoin so he spouts narratives like the recent FUDing of cold storage, gov and tax evasion, etc because that will simply help HIS bags (broader acceptance).

He’s a billionaire, he’s getting older, and he has an ego (what CEO doesn’t?). I think he think I can safely make the assumption that he would like to see hyperbitcoinization within his lifetime and see his strategy justified. As a CEO, he is trained in how to speak to specific audiences. He’s isn’t, and never was, your friend just because he buys bitcoin and believes it’s a superior SoV.


More taxes everywhere please, so statists learn the hard way.

Food paid in bitcoin with the nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg wallet. 🤯 No bank or payment processor company was involved in this transaction. I did not buy these sats but received them from strangers on the internet.

What a great time to be alive.

Thinking about dling the streamed YT video from our based Bristol church, snipping the most impactful sermon soundbites and posting clips on Nostr. Best to do this from a dedicated new npub or my own?


A few weeks ago, PayPal held my money for 180 days, showing how centralized systems control our finances. How can we truly call it "our money" when others decide when we can use it? Bitcoin changes that by giving us full control, no intermediaries, no restrictions-just financial freedom.

It's also the thing Bitcoiners are most reluctant to make semi public statements on, for obvious reasons.


It's true.


Mullvad is fast and reliable, no KYC, accepts Bitcoin, doesn't store customer data as runs in RAM and has a track record of resisting police raids.


SI Thesis playing out.


Well said that man.


It repeatedly blows my mind, just how fundamentally decent the majority of people here are.

My hope/theory is that it’s not actually “just like this on Nostr”. While it’s true that a number of us have overlapping interests or worldviews, there is also a natural diversity: people from all around the world, with different cultures, languages, philosophies, and experiences, all show up here to say GM.

It’s more of a cultural bell curve, where the majority of people are pretty chill, decent human beings, who generally like each other and respect one another’s differences.

My radical proposition is that this actually reflects the real world, and that the current cultural narrative of unrelenting division - while it has some truth to it, for sure — is drastically overblown, both on a personal level and by the media. On the edges of the bell curve are the very niche, very loud, and very “divided” subcultures. These groups have been given the loudest microphones.

Individually, if we only interact with the toxic, rage-bait algorithms that have come to define modern social/media (because it’s in journalism too), we experience the world through this clouded lens. We’re fed a continuous diet of disagreement, outrage, war, etc., because we click on it and thus the people making the content decisions get paid.

Remove the algorithms, and you remove the illusion of irreconcilable division. Nostr is a perfect case study of this, and so far it’s going beautifully.

I’m cautiously optimistic that this trend will continue when the user base grows 10x, 100x, because my view is that humanity is primarily good. Time will tell, and incentives will matter. But I’m hopeful that on a value-for-value, proof-of-work standard, our better instincts will prevail.


Can't zap this. Pls add your LN address fren.

What's Bitcoin?


by   nostr:npub13l3lyslfzyscrqg8saw4r09y70702s6r025hz52sajqrvdvf88zskh8xc2

This new paper is a true declaration of war: the ECB claims that early #bitcoin adopters steal economic value from latecomers. I strongly believe authorities will use this luddite argument to enact harsh taxes or bans. Check 🧵 for why:

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

Rather than praising bitcoin as a tech paradigm shift à la petroleum and the internet, the authors introduce the blatantly luddite argument that "early adopters" ... "increase their real wealth and consumption" ... "at the expense of [latecomers]".

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

Then they go on to brazenly advocate for legislation ... "to prevent bitcoin prices from rising or to see bitcoin disappear altogether" in order to prevent "the division of society".

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

The authors also model some projections, to illustrate the paltry amount of BTC that will remain available for latecomers. (Woe is me! Conspicuously left out is the reason that has driven 15 years of bitcoin adoption & development: it's simply better tech.)

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

 In all the years I've been monitoring the bitcoin space, this is by far the most aggressive paper to come from authorities. The gloves are off. It's clear that these central bank economists now see bitcoin as an existential threat, to be attacked with any means possible.

Many of us have warned that this was coming: bitcoin as a major political fault line both in national and international elections. Well here it is. It means that us HODLers must take action to insure that governments respect our basic right to hold property.

And no, this won't be a war between haves and have-nots. Rather this will be a historic clash between those who stand for the natural rights of the individual, and those who clutch at the failed ideologies of collectivism and central planning.

Here's the download link to the paper: "The distributional consequences of Bitcoin". (We need detailed rebuttals. Who's writing one?)

A Psalm of David. Psalm 23

1
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2
    He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
3
    He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
    for his name's sake.
4
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
    I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
    your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.
5
You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
    forever.


Largely concur. Still enjoy a little antagonism though.


Nostr has helped me break unhealthy social media habits, and has reoriented my view of online social interactions in a more constructive and positive way.


Server fatigue is real. On platforms like Mastodon, admins sometimes just delete servers, wiping out whole communities
